d.    LATE QUOTES: In accordance with FAR 52.212-1, any quotes received after the due date may be disqualified. 

e.    It is the offeror's responsibility to ensure the Government receives their quote before the deadline.

f.    QUOTE CONFORMITY AND COMPLETENESS: Offerors are responsible for submitting a complete and conforming quote that addresses all submission requirements outlined in this solicitation.

i.    Conformity with Instructions: Quotes that do not conform to the instructions, such as exceeding page limitations or failing to provide the requested information, may be considered unacceptable and may not be evaluated.
ii.    Relevance of Information: To ensure an efficient evaluation, offerors should only submit the specific documents and information requested. Extraneous materials or ANY documents not explicitly required will not be evaluated. 

g.    EVALUATION. IAW RFO FAR 12.203(a); the following factors will be used to evaluate quotes:

i.    FACTOR 1: TECHNICAL SOLUTION. Offerors shall submit a concise Technical Approach within their quotation that explains how they will execute the PWS requirements. (Page limitation 5 pages)

ii.    FACTOR 2: EXPERIENCE. This factor evaluates the depth and relevance of the offeror's actual history in performing work similar in scope, complexity, and magnitude to this solicitation, as distinct from Past Performance, which assesses the quality of that work. Offerors must demonstrate a history of execution on similar projects, as the Government will comparatively evaluate the depth and breadth of each offeror's experience to determine which offers represent the best value. (Attachment 3. Page Limitation 2 pages per experience). Attachment 3 must be used to submit experience, up to three experiences can be submitted. If a subcontractor is submitted to demonstrate required experience, your company must utilize that same subcontractor upon contract award. Replacing them with a different subcontractor will constitute a breach of contract.

iii.    FACTOR 3: PRICE. The Government will evaluate the offeror's total quoted price to ensure it is fair and reasonable. The Total Evaluated Price (TEP) will encompass all applicable costs, including labor, materials, equipment, and administrative fees. In accordance with (IAW) FAR 52.217-5 and FAR 52.217-9, the Government will evaluate the base year and all four (4) option years to calculate the TEP for comparative evaluation purposes. (Attachment 4).

1.    Providing identical pricing across the base year and all four (4) option years, without reflecting any escalation rate, may be deemed unrealistic. Offerors should consider the impact of inflation over the five-year performance period when formulating the quotation's pricing.

h.    BASIS OF AWARD. IAW RFO FAR 12.203(c)(2) The contracting officer has broad discretion in establishing how quotations will be evaluated. The Government will award a single, firm-fixed-price purchase order to the vendor responsible whose quotation represents the best value to the Government. The Contracting Officer will determine offeror responsibility IAW RFO FAR 9.104. The Government may also utilize the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) and the Federal Awardee Performance Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), along with other Government and non-Government sources when determining the responsibility of an offeror. The Contracting Officer will conduct a comparative evaluation of all timely quotations.

i.    Please note that the evaluation procedures of RFO FAR Part 14 (Sealed Bidding) and RFO FAR Part 15 (Contracting by Negotiation) do not apply to this acquisition. The Government is not required to, and will not establish or utilize formal evaluation plans, assign numerical, adjectival, or color-coded scores to quotations, or establish a competitive range. 

ii.    The Government will directly compare quotations to one another to determine which quote provides the most advantageous technical approach and experience at a fair and reasonable price. The Contracting Officer reserves the right to communicate with any, all, or none of the vendors at any point during the evaluation. These communications are not governed by the restrictive “discussions” rules of RFO FAR Part 15. The Government may solicit revised quotations or resolve minor details with one or more vendors without the obligation to open discussions or request final proposal revisions from all vendors. Vendors are strongly encouraged to submit their best technical and pricing terms in their initial quotation.

i.    CONTRACT TYPE. Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Contract

j.    The established budget parameter for the entire 5-year Period of Performance (PoP) of this acquisition is estimated to be between $250,000.00 and $300,000.00. 

i.    This figure represents a budget guideline only; the offeror is not prohibited from quoting a price outside this range. The offeror may submit a quotation above or below this parameter if deemed necessary to accurately reflect their offered technical approach. The Government reserves the right to award a contract outside this budget parameters if it represents the best value.

2.    GENERAL REQUIREMENT:
a.    Period of Performance: One (1) Base Year and Four (4) Options Year. Total Five (5) Years.
b.    Place of Performance: Hangar 1002, Kirtland Air Force Base, NM 87117.

iii.    Attachment 03 – Experience
iv.    Attachment 04 - Schedule

3.    REQUIRED DOCUMENT. Failure to provide all required documentation may result in the quotation being excluded from the comparative evaluation and eliminated from award consideration.

i.    TECHNICAL SOLUTION. 5 pages limitation
ii.    ATTACHMENT 3 - EXPRIENCE. 2 pages limitation per experience (up to three expriences can be submitted). 
iii.    ATTACHMENT 4 - SCHEDULE

(b) Inspection/Acceptance. The Contractor shall only tender for acceptance those items that conform to the requirements of this contract. The Government reserves the right to inspect or test any supplies or services that have been tendered for acceptance. The Government may require repair or replacement of nonconforming supplies or reperformance of nonconforming services at no increase in contract price. If repair/replacement or reperformance will not correct the defects or is not possible, the Government may seek an equitable price reduction or adequate consideration for acceptance of nonconforming supplies or services. The Government must exercise its post acceptance rights—

(e) Disputes. This contract is subject to 41 U.S.C. chapter 71, Contract Disputes.

The Contractor shall proceed diligently with performance of this contract, pending final resolution of any dispute arising under the contract.
(f) Excusable delays. The Contractor shall be liable for default unless nonperformance is caused by an occurrence beyond the reasonable control of the Contractor and without its fault or negligence.

(v) Amounts shall be due at the earliest of the following dates:
(A) The date fixed under this contract.
(B) The date of the first written demand for payment, including any demand for payment resulting from a termination for cause.

In the event of such termination, the Contractor shall immediately stop all work and shall immediately cause any and all of its suppliers and subcontractors to cease work. Subject to the terms of this contract, the Contractor shall be paid a percentage of the contract price reflecting the percentage of the work performed prior to the notice of termination, plus reasonable charges the Contractor can demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Government using its standard record keeping system, have resulted from the termination. The Contractor shall not be required to comply with the cost accounting standards or contract cost principles for this purpose. This paragraph does not give the Government any right to audit the Contractor’s records. The Contractor shall not be paid for any work performed or costs incurred which reasonably could have been avoided.
(m) Termination for cause. The Government may terminate this contract, or any part hereof, for cause in the event of any default by the Contractor, or if the Contractor fails to comply with any contract terms and conditions, or fails to provide the Government, upon request, with adequate assurances of future performance. The Government will send a cure notice to the Contractor, unless the reason for the termination is late delivery. In the event of termination for cause, the Government shall not be liable to the Contractor for any amount for supplies or services not accepted, and the Contractor shall be liable to the Government for any and all rights and remedies provided by law. If it is determined that the Government improperly terminated this contract for default, such termination shall be deemed a termination for convenience.
(n) Title. Unless specified elsewhere in this contract, title to items furnished under this contract shall pass to the Government upon acceptance, regardless of when or where the Government takes physical possession.
(o) Warranty. The Contractor warrants and implies that the items delivered under this contract are merchantable and fit for use for the particular purpose described in this contract.
