T he following factor shall be used to evaluate offers: (i) past performance -- each offeror will be evaluated on his/her past performance record on contracts which have been and/or are currently being performed for similar work. The evaluation will be a subjective assessment on how well each offeror has satisfied its customers in the past. It will not be based on absolu te standards of performance. The Government reserves the right to consider all aspects of an offeror?s performance history, but will attribute more significance to work that was similar in nature, magnitude, and complexity to the work that will be required by the contract described in this RFP. References other than those identified by the offeror may be contacted by the Government with the information received used in the evaluation of the offeror's past performance. (ii) experience -- off erors shall submit a list of at least three similar contracts completed during the past three years and all contracts curren tly in process.

The Government intends to evaluate proposal and award a contract without discussions with offerors (except c ommunications conducted for the purpose of minor clarification). Therefore each initial offer should contain the offeror's best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if late r determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. (b) Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purpose s by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement.
