An Offeror�s quote must demonstrate they are an authorized supplier of the equipment and incidental services listed in Attachment 02 Line Item Pricing. In order to demonstrate an Offeror is an authorized supplier for this requirement, Offerors shall provide an authorized supplier letter from the OEM indicating they are an authorized supplier for solicitation FA805126Q4011. Not providing an authorized supplier letter from the OEM will result in the quote being evaluated as technically unacceptable and ineligible for award. A commercial small business subcontracting plan is required in accordance with FAR 52.219-9 - Small Business Subcontracting Plan. Prior to award, the Government will request an approved commercial plan from the apparent successful offeror. If an approved commercial plan does not exist, one will be negotiated and approved prior to award. The small business goals for negotiated plans are included in the table below. This requirement does not apply to small business concerns. Small Business: 30% of total subcontracting dollars Small Disadvantaged Business: 5% of total subcontracting dollars Woman Owned Small Business: 5% of total subcontracting dollars HUBZone Small Business: 3% of total subcontracting dollars Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business: 5% of total subcontracting dollars 7. Best Value Evaluation. For this procurement, the Best Value determination will be made as Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA). The following factors will be used to evaluate offers: A) Price and B) Technical. The Government intends to award to the contractor with the lowest price who meets the technical requirements of the RFQ. The responses to this RFQ are intended to be evaluated, and award made, without discussions unless discussions are deemed to be necessary. The Government will sort quotes from lowest to highest based on the total evaluated price (TEP). Once the quotes are sorted by TEP the technical evaluations will begin starting with the lowest priced quote. Technical evaluations will continue until the Contracting Officer determines 1) that a sufficient number of quotes have been determined technically acceptable to establish price fair and reasonable based on adequate competition and 2) a significant number of quotes have been determined technically acceptable to reduce the risk to the Government if the LPTA offeror fails to perform in accordance with the contract and order specifications. Once the contracting officer determines the above criteria have been met, all further technical evaluations will cease. The following process will be followed: A. Price. Use Attachment 02 to provide unit pricing. TEP will be determined by multiplying the unit costs by the quantities identified in Attachment 02. Evaluation of Options. The Government will evaluate 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 option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise any option(s). B. Technical: To be determined technically acceptable, offerors must provide the exact Trimble brand survey equipment listed in Attachment 02 and demonstrate they are an authorized supplier of the equipment and incidental services listed in Attachment 02 Line Item Pricing. This is a brand name only requirement in accordance with FAR 6.302-1. The brand name only justification is attached to this RFQ (Attachment 04). Delivery will be FOB Destination and quotes must include delivery date information. C. Past performance will be evaluated as acceptable or unacceptable. Past performance for each offeror will be verified by reviewing the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS) and the offeror�s Supplier Risk Score in the Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS) (IAW DFARS 252.204-7024). Acceptable past performance will be determined if the offeror has no negative relevant past performance information in FAPIIS within the last five years and no negative relevant information in SPRS. A lack of Past Performance will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably and will therefore be evaluated as Acceptable. Unacceptable past performance will be determined if the offeror has negative relevant past performance information in FAPIIS within the last five years or negative relevant information SPRS.
