Offeror shall provide proof that the laboratory to be used in the sample analysis is Pennsylvania Accredited by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Laboratory Accreditation Program website. \n\n Evaluation Factors \n\n This evaluation will utilize comparative analysis to provide the best value to the Government. Award may be made to other than the lowest priced offer, if the Government determines that a price premium is warranted due to technical merit. \n\n However, the closer the merits of the technical offer are to one another, the greater will be the importance of price in making the award determination. In the event that two or more technical offers are determined technically equivalent and equivalent in past performance, award may be made to the lower priced offer provided the price is reasonable. Responses to this solicitation will be evaluated against the following factors: \n\n Factor 1: Technical \nFactor 2: Past Performance \nFactor 3: Price \n\n FACTOR 1: Technical. \n\n The Offeror shall provide technical information based off the requirements of the Performance Work Statement (PWS). The information shall provide, at a minimum, the following information: \n\n a . A detailed breakdown of the plan to effectively execute the requirements in the PWS. \n b . Establish in writing an understanding of the PADEP approved Environmental Plans: \nSubpart X, Appendix E-1 and Appendix E-2. The Appendix E-1 and E-2 will be provided for the Offeror to review and the ability to understand and fulfill the testing requirements. \n c . The Offeror must provide proof of qualifications and certifications of the technicians conducting the testing and of the laboratory to be used in the sample analysis is Pennsylvania Accredited by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Laboratory Accreditation Program website. \n d .Offeror must provide proof of current or past work experience in a similar size and scope in order to collect and analyze the samples according to the PADEP approved Environmental Plans: Subpart X, Appendix E-1 and Appendix E-2. The Appendix E-1 and E-2 will be provided for the Offeror to review and the ability to understand and fulfill the testing requirements. \n\n Mere re-statements of the requirements or statements from the Offeror that the offer is compliant that do not include proof that the Offeror can demonstrate the aforementioned items, are unacceptable. \n\n If the offer is detemined unacceptable in any of the technical evaluation factors or subfactors, the offer may not be considered for award. In addition to the information submitted by offeror, the Contracting Officer may consider other information reasonably related to the evaluation factors, to include the personal knowledge of the competitor's commercial and Government customers and past \nperformance databases. The Government may consider any other value added benefit offered in its best value determination. \n\n The Contracting Officer may communicate with an offeror at any time during the evaluation without regard to the FAR 15.3 rules concerning competitive range determinations and discussions. The Contracting Officer may also identify the offeror most likely to provide best value and hold negotiations solely with that offeror to finalize the order and/or negotiate more favorable terms for the Government. \n\n Factor 2: Past Performance \n\n The Government will evaluate the Offeror’s record of past and current performance to ascertain the probability of successfully performing the required efforts of the PWS. \n a.

The Government may consider a wide array of information from a variety of sources but is not compelled to rely on all the information available. \n d. Offerors shall include three (3) of the most recent and relevant efforts (with in the past three (3) years) in their quote. Absent any recent and relevant past performance history or when the performance record is so spare that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror will be assigned an “unknown confidence rating” and its quote will not be evaluated either favorably or unfavorably on past performance. The Government may use data provided by the Offeror in its quote and data obtained from other sources, including data in Government files or data obtained through interviews with personnel familiar with the contractor and their current and past performance under Federal, State or Local Government or commercial contracts for the same or similar services as compared to the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) 541380.

Evaluation of the option pricing in this manner shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option. \n\n The Government will evaluate quotes for award purposes by adding the total price for the option to the total price for the base requirement.
