FORMAT AND SUBMISSION OF PROPOSAL Part A. PRICING AND AVAILABILITY - The offeror shall provide an FOB Destination "each" price for the upgrade and installation and service of satellite-based television programming equipment and all peripherals and to include monthly charges for programming. Offerors shall provide a separate price for annual maintenance and any annual upgrades of the satellite system at JJRTC. Part B. OFFEROR INFORMATION: The offeror shall provide: 1) Name, title, telephone number, fax number, and email address of the point of contact. 2) Nine-digit DUNS. The DUNS is used to verify that the vendor is in System for Award Management (SAM). By submitting a proposal, the Offeror acknowledges the Government requirement to be in the SAM database prior to award of any contract. Information about SAM may be found at www.SAM.gov. 3) Nine-digit TIN. The Taxpayer Identification Number is necessary for electronic payment. Part C. PAST PERFORMANCE REFERENCES The offeror shall submit at least three references for current and past performance in the last three years. Past Performance will be evaluated in terms of relevancy and currency (See Section III. Evaluation Factors). The submission of all references shall include the following information: a. Contract Number(s) b. Name and phone number of a point of contact at the Federal, State, Local Government or Commercial entity for which the contract was performed. c. Email addresses for each point of contact d. Dollar value of the Contract. e. Detailed description of the work performed. f. The number, type and severity of any quality, delivery or cost problems in performing the contract, the corrective action taken and the effectiveness of the correct action. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ IV. EVALUATION FACTORS The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the contractor that offers the lowest price technically acceptable. For purposes of price analysis, each line item will be evaluated separately. Selection will be made on total price. Steps in the evaluation and award of this acquisition are as follows: 1. All offers found to be technically unacceptable shall be eliminated. Examples of reasons for being found unacceptable include but are not limited to: nonresponsive, debarred or suspended, prohibited source, or products which are submitted that fail to meet the requirements for satellite services. 2. Offerors of technically acceptable products and having low risk to moderate past performance ratings will be ranked by price. 3. Technically acceptable products will be evaluated on: A. The offeror's proposal shall demonstrate its understanding of the requirements listed in the Statement of Work (SOW), as well as its knowledge of the services to be provided. Best commercial practices to be used in performing the tasks under the solicitation shall be provided. The proposal shall contain the contractor's approach in performing the tasks at hand with accomplished personnel who will understand the requirements and possess the experience to successfully provide the knowledge, skills and abilities necessary to provide for the installation and services for satellite-based service. The quality of answers in relation to each subject will be evaluated rather than the quantity of pages. 4. Past Performance Past Performance will be evaluated in terms of relevancy and recent history. Relevance means references provided must relate to the same effort or similar one in both product and scale. Recent history means references provided on current or recently completed contracts within the past 3 years. Past performance will assess delivery and quality of product as it relates to probability of successful contract performance. Each performance risk assessment of the areas listed above will consider the number and severity of problems, the effectiveness of corrective actions taken and the overall work record. Problems not addressed by the offeror will be considered to still exist. However, the degree to which the offeror can demonstrate that it has successfully provided program support will be given a higher rating. Under this factor, the USSS will evaluate how well an offeror performed similar work with other government agencies or companies. The assessment of performance risk is not intended to be an analysis of an offeror's performance on a list of contracts, but rather the product of subjective judgment of the evaluators after it considers all available, relevant and recent information. 5. Price For evaluation purposes, the Total Evaluated Price will be the sum of all CLIN amounts. In addition, for evaluation purposes, adjustments the Government deems appropriate will be made to include Government costs required to accomplish the offeror's proposed approach with the exception of those costs to the Government that are equal across all offerors. The proposed unit prices and the Total Evaluated Price as previously defined will be evaluated for reasonableness. Also, each offeror's Price proposal will be evaluated to determine if it is consistent with the offeror's technical approach and reflects a clear understanding of the solicitation requirements. Inconsistencies between the Technical and Price proposals may be assessed as proposal risk under the Technical evaluation. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ V.
