(2) One year of credit monitoring services consisting of automatic daily monitoring of at least 3 relevant credit bureau reports. (3) Data breach analysis.

(End of provision) ix. FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation Commercial Items (NOV 2021), applies to this solicitation. BASIS FOR AWARD: This requirement will be competed and awarded under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures. The contracting techniques associated with FAR Part 15 do not apply. The Government will make an award to the responsible Offeror whose quotation conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The government intends to compare what has been quoted to one another to select the quote that is best suited to fulfill the requirement. The evaluation factors outlined in this request for quote will determine suitability. Technical, Experience and past performance when combined are more important than price. The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsive, responsible Vendor in accordance with FAR 9.104-1 and whose quote conforms to the solicitation, and provides the best value to the Government, price and other non-price factors considered. Evaluation Approach. The non-price factor are more important than price. As such, the Government reserves the right to make an award to other than the lowest priced quoter if it is in the government s best interest to do so. Since award may be made to the Vendor with other than the lowest price, price is not necessarily the determining factor. The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotes: Technical Capability. The technical capability rating reflects the degree to which the proposed approach has demonstrated the ability to perform grounds maintenance services as required by the solicitation. The technical evaluation rating will be determined by evaluating the following: Vendors shall submit documentation illustrating a clear description of the management methodology that will be used for executing the effort described in the SOW. This description shall include: (1) Identifying key personnel and their experience/qualifications (2) Details of the vendor s internal quality assurance plan Experience. The basis of evaluation under this factor will be focused on the firm s experience in performing recent contracts and/or task orders of similar size, scope and complexity to the work being solicited within the SOW. The quote shall contain information from a minimum of one contract where similar grounds maintenance services were successfully provided. Only quotes that demonstrate relevant experience with providing similar grounds maintenance services shall be eligible for award. Government and commercial sources will be accepted. The Contractor must regularly offer and engage in providing similar grounds maintenance services as described in this solicitation. Past Performance. The past performance evaluation will be accomplished by reviewing aspects of a Vendors recent and relevant past performance. The Vendor shall submit past performance information that is both recent (within the past three (3) years) and relevant (similar in size, scope, and complexity to the requirement being procured), if applicable. Recent and relevant past performance shall be discussed for the prime contractor and/or any major team members or teaming partners proposed to support this contract. The Vendor is provided an opportunity to submit a list of no more than three (3) of the Vendor s most recent and relevant past performance information on projects: similar in size, scope, and complexity to the requirement being procured under this solicitation, performed for Government agencies and/or commercial customers within the last three (3) years from the solicitation release date. The past performance submittals shall include (when applicable): Contract Number, Contracting Officers (CO): Name, Phone number and Email address, Contracting Officers Representatives (COR): Name, Phone number and Email address, Non-Government Points of Contact (if applicable), Total Contract Value at time of award and final price after any/all modifications, Initial Period of performance (POP) and final POP after any/all modifications, Narrative describing the requirement and reason for any modifications which effected price or performance period. The Government reserves the right to obtain past performance data from other sources than those identified by the Vendor in evaluating past performance. In the case of a Vendor without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the Vendor may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. Therefore, the Vendor shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of confidence, the Vendor will be evaluated as Unknown Confidence and shall be considered neutral. Price. The Vendor is required to quote a fully burdened fixed price for the CLIN structure as shown in Section v. Insert the quoted unit and extended prices in Contract Line-Item Number (CLIN) 0001 through 4003. All unit prices shall be represented in two decimal positions only. Example: $0.27, not $0.27458. The Government shall evaluate price to determine if it is considered fair and reasonable in accordance with FAR Part 13.106-3. Options. The Government will consider offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). This includes options under FAR 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, which applies to this solicitation. Evaluation of options under FAR 52.217-8 will be accomplished by adding six months of the quoter's price for the last potential period of performance under this contract to the quoter's total pr...
