the Offeror's Technical Approach Will Be Evaluated To Determine If The Offeror Understands The Requirements And Possesses The Specialized Knowledge, Resources, And Skill In The Relevant Areas For The Production Of A Professional, Broadcast-ready Series Of A New York Harmony Music Show That Will Air For One (1) Hour Each Week Once All Episodes Are Delivered And Accepted.

Offerors Lacking Relevant Past Performance History Will Not Be Evaluated Favorably Or Unfavorably On Past Performance, I.e. Offerors Lacking Relevant Past Performance Information Will Receive A Neutral Rating. However, The Proposal Of An Offeror With No Relevant Past Performance History, While Not Rated Favorably Or Unfavorably For Past Performance, May Not Represent The Most Advantageous Proposal To The Government And Thus, May Be An Unsuccessful Proposal When Compared To The Proposals Of Other Offerors. If An Offeror Fails To Provide Any Past Performance Information Which Meets The Requirements Detailed In The Rfp Or Fails To Affirmatively State That It Possesses No Relevant Directly Related Or Similar Past Performance, The Offer May Not Be Acceptable For Award.
the Assessment Of The Offeror’s Past Performance Will Be Used As A Means Of Evaluating The Relative Capability Of The Offeror To Successfully Meet The Requirements Of The Rfp. The Past Performance Factor Will Be Used To Determine The Risk Of Non-performance, Defective Performance, And/or Late Performance By Evaluating Each Offeror’s Reported Quality Of Work And Relevant Experience With The Type Of Services Being Solicited. In Determining The Rating For The Past Performance Evaluation Factor, The Government Will Give Greater Consideration To The References Which The Government Determines Are Most Relevant To The Requirements In Section C.
the Contractor Will Be Evaluated On The Relevance And Quality Of Past Performance. Contractors Shall Detail Their Experience Performing Similar Work In Tv Production/music Events. The Contractor Shall List The Last Total Production Activity With Similar Specifications, The City/state Where It Was Implemented, And Where Possible, The Client For Whom Work Was Conducted.

factor 3 – Price:
offerors Are Required To Furnish An Itemized Estimated Cost Breakdown And Profit Quotation Including All Elements Needed To Execute And Deliver The Ten (10) Episode Series At The Firm-fixed-price Offeror Proposes. Usagm Will Pay The Firm-fixed-price, Which Does Not Take Into Account The Actual Costs The Contractor Incurs.

the Government Will Evaluate The Total Firm-fixed-price For Accuracy, Completeness, And Reasonableness And In Comparison To The Total Firm-fixed-price Of Other Offerors. The Government Reserves The Right To Reject An Offer That Contains Unbalanced Pricing Pursuant To Far 15.404-1(g)(3).

price
factors 1 And 2 Are Each Individually More Important Than Factor 3.
usagm Reserves The Right To Make One Award Or No Award, Depending Upon The Quality Of The Proposals Submitted And The Availability Of Funds.

if The Contractor’s Proposal Is Determined Low Confidence In Either Of The Technical Evaluation Factors, The Proposal May Not Be Considered For Award.
