(End of Addendum) The provision at FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation--Commercial Items applies to this acquisition: 52.212-2 Evaluation - Commercial Items (Oct 2014) (a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:i. Priceii. Past performancePast performance is evaluated on a basis significantly more important than price.(b) 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 the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).(c) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer's specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.(End of Provision)ADDENDUM TO 52.212-2 -- Evaluation -- Commercial Items (Oct 2014). a. The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and past performance considered, using competitive best value source selection in which competing offeror's past performance will be evaluated on a basis significantly more important than cost or price considerations. An offeror's proposal must meet all requirements of this solicitation to be eligible for award. By submission of its offer, the offeror accedes to all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, and representations and certifications, in addition to those identified as evaluation factors or subfactors. Offerors must clearly identify any exception to the solicitation terms and conditions and provide complete accompanying rationale. Offerors who propose to perform the work for an unrealistically low price will not be considered for award. Where applicable, the techniques and procedures described under FAR 15.404-1 will be the primary means of assessing proposal reasonableness. An offeror's proposal shall represent the offeror's best efforts to respond to the solicitation. The evaluation process shall proceed as follows: •I. Price Factor: Initially, the government shall rank all proposals by price, including any option prices if applicable. For proposal evaluation purposes, contract line items numbers (CLINs) shall be evaluated as follows: CLIN 0001 + CLIN 0002= Total Evaluated Price The government intends to award based on the aggregate total of CLIN 0001 + CLIN 0002 The lowest aggregate total of both CLINs shall constitute the lowest priced offer. Offerors shall ensure that price entered for each CLIN is exclusive of any costs of other CLINs and pricing is not duplicated to ensure the calculated aggregate of total extended price is the offeror's lowest price for the entire project. Multiple contracts will not be awarded as a result of this solicitation. •II. Past Performance: Next, starting with the lowest priced offeror, the government will evaluate offerors' past performance in order to assign an overall performance confidence assessment rating. The Past Performance evaluation results in an assessment of the offeror's probability of meeting the solicitation requirements. •i) Evaluation Process. The past performance evaluation considers each offeror's demonstrated recent, relevant, and quality record of performance in supplying products and services that meet the contract's requirements. The past performance evaluation also includes applicable joint ventures, subcontractors and/or teaming partners' demonstrated recent, relevant, and quality record of performance provided by the offeror. Performance confidence is assessed at the overall Past Performance factor level after evaluating aspects of the offeror's recent and relevant past performance. In conducting the Past Performance evaluation, the Government reserves the right to use both the information provided in the offeror's Past Performance proposal volume and information obtained from other sources available to the Government, to include, but not limited to, the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), or other databases, interviews with Program Managers, Contracting Officers and Fee Determining Officials, the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA), and commercial sources. •a. Recency Assessment. An assessment of the past performance information will first be made to determine if it is recent. To be recent, the effort must be ongoing or must have been performed during the past 3 years from the date of issuance of this solicitation. Past performance information that fails this condition will not be evaluated. •b. Relevancy Assessment. Next, for each recent past performance citation reviewed, the Government will conduct an in-depth evaluation of all recent performance information obtained to determine how closely the products provided/services performed under those contracts relate to the requirements of this solicitation. To be considered relevant, the effort must include aspects of Graphic Design work similar to or greater than the scope, magnitude, and complexity of the requirements of this solicitation. The relevance of the work performed will generally be assessed for the Technical, Schedule, and Business Relations attributes required for this solicitation. These attributes are described below: • i. Technical: Technical can be measured by the offeror's ability to perform a project to meet technical specifications, contract terms and conditions, and all local, state, and federal regulations as related to performing projects. • ii. Schedule: Schedule can be measured in terms of the timeliness in which a contractor completes, or has completed, milestones, delivery schedules, and strict adherence to phased schedules, administrative requirements, contract requirements (e.g. efforts that contribute to or effect the schedule variance). • iii. Business Relations: Business relations can be measured by the offeror's integration and coordination of activity needed to execute the contract; the timeliness, completeness and quality of problem identification, and corrective action plans; proposal/modification submittals; the contractor's history of reasonable and cooperative behavior; and customer satisfaction. A relevancy determination of the offeror's past performance will be made based upon the aforementioned attributes. The government is not bound by an offerors' opinion of a project's relevancy. In determining relevancy for individual contracts, consideration will be given to the effort, or portion of the effort, being proposed by the offeror, teaming partner, or subcontractor whose contract is being reviewed and evaluated. The past performance information provided in Part II of the proposal and information obtained from other sources will be used to establish the degree of relevancy of past performance. The Contracting Officer may contact the identified point of contact for each project to further determine relevancy. It is imperative that the contact information for the identified point of contact be current and accurate. The Government will assign a relevancy rating using the following relevancy definitions when assessing each recent contract (based upon DoD Source Selection Procedures, Table 4): RatingDefinitionVERY RELEVANT Present/past performance effort involved essentially the same scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.RELEVANT Present/past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.SOMEWHAT RELEVANT Present/past performance effort involved some of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.NOT RELEVANT Present/past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires. •a. Performance Quality Assessment (Quality Record of Performance). The Government will consider the performance quality of recent, very relevant, relevant, and somewhat relevant efforts (how well the contractor performed on the contracts) in determining the overall performance confidence assessment rating .The quality assessment consists of an in-depth evaluation of all past performance information available, regardless of its source. The quality assessment may result in positive or adverse findings. Adverse is defined as past performance information that supports a less than satisfactory rating on any evaluation element or any unfavorable comment received from sources without a formal rating system. For adverse information identified, the evaluation will consider the number and severity of the problem(s), mitigating circumstances, and the effectiveness of corrective actions that have resulted in sustained improvements. Process changes will only be considered when objectively measurable improvements in performance have been demonstrated. •b. Assigning Performance Confidence Ratings. As a result of the relevancy and quality assessments of the recent contracts evaluated, offerors will receive an integrated overall performance confidence assessment rating. The performance Confidence Assessment ratings include Substantial Confidence, Satisfactory Confidence, Limited Confidence, No Confidence, or Unknown Confidence as defined in DoD Source Selection Procedures, Table 5. Past performance regarding predecessor companies, key personnel who have relevant experience, or subcontractors that will perform major or critical aspects of the requirement will be rated as highly as past performance information for the principal offeror. Although the past performance evaluation focuses on performance that is relevant to the past performance factor and cost/price factor, the resulting performance confidence assessment rating is made at the factor level and represents an overall evaluation of contractor performance. Offerors without a record of recent/relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance and, as a result, will receive an "Unknown Confidence" rating for the Past Performance factor. A strong record of very relevant past performance may be considered more advantageous to the Government than an "Unknown Confidence" rating. Likewise, a more relevant past performance record may receive a higher confidence rating and be considered more favorably than a less relevant record of favorable performance. TABLE 5. PERFORMANCE CONFIDENCE ASSESSMENTSRatingDescriptionSubstantial ConfidenceBased on the offeror's recent/relevant/quality performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.Satisfactory ConfidenceBased on the offeror's recent/relevant/quality performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort. Limited ConfidenceBased on the offeror's recent/relevant/quality performance record, the Government has a low expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.No ConfidenceBased on the offeror's recent/relevant/quality performance record, the Government has no expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.Unknown Confidence (Neutral)No recent/relevant/quality performance record is available or the offeror's performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned. •c. If the lowest priced evaluated proposal is judged to have a "Substantial Confidence" Performance Confidence Assessment, that offer represents the best value for the government and the evaluation process stops at this point. Award shall be made to that offeror without further consideration of any other offers. If the lowest priced offeror is not judged to have a "Substantial Confidence" performance confidence assessment, the next lowest priced offeror will be evaluated and the process will continue (in order by price) until an offeror is assessed to have a "Substantial Confidence" performance assessment or until all offerors are evaluated. If all offerors are evaluated then the Contracting Officer shall then make an integrated assessment best value award decision. •d. Offerors are cautioned to submit sufficient information and in the format specified in Ademendum 52.212-1. Offerors may be asked to clarify certain aspects of their proposal (for example, the relevance of past performance information) or respond to adverse past performance information to which the offeror has not previously had an opportunity to respond. Adverse past performance is defined as past performance information that supports a less than satisfactory rating on any evaluation element or any unfavorable comments received from sources without a formal rating system. Communication conducted to resolve minor or clerical errors will not constitute discussions and the contracting officer reserves the right to award a contract without the opportunity for proposal revision. •e. The government intends to award a contract without discussions with respective offerors. The government, however, reserves the right to conduct discussions if deemed in its best interest. The government reserves the right to award one or no contract at all, depending on the quality of proposals submitted. Failure to propose for any item in the CLIN Schedule may cause the offeror's proposal to be rejected as non-responsive. (End of addendum) FAR 52.212-4, Contract Terms and Conditions-Commercial Items (May 2015) applies to this acquisition.

(Applies only if the contract value is expected to exceed the simplified acquisition teshold.) The offeror certifies, to the best of its knowledge and belief, that the offeror and/or any of its principals--(1) [_] Are, [_] are not presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, or declared ineligible for the award of contracts by any Federal agency; (2) [_] Have, [_] have not, within a tee-year period preceding this offer, been convicted of or had a civil judgment rendered against them for: commission of fraud or a criminal offense in connection with obtaining, attempting to obtain, or performing a Federal, state or local government contract or subcontract; violation of Federal or state antitrust statutes relating to the submission of offers; or commission of embezzlement, theft, forgery, bribery, falsification or destruction of records, making false statements, tax evasion, violating Federal criminal tax laws, or receiving stolen property; and(3) [_] Are, [_] are not presently indicted for, or otherwise criminally or civilly charged by a Government entity with, commission of any of these offenses enumerated in paragraph (h)(2) of this clause; and(4) [_] Have, [_] have not, within a tee-year period preceding this offer, been notified of any delinquent Federal taxes in an amount that exceeds $3,500 for which the liability remains unsatisfied.(i) Taxes are considered delinquent if both of the following criteria apply:(A) The tax liability is finally determined.

Should the taxpayer seek tax court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights.(C) The taxpayer has entered into an installment agreement pursuant to I.R.C. §6159. The taxpayer is making timely payments and is in full compliance with the agreement terms. The taxpayer is not delinquent because the taxpayer is not currently required to make full payment.(D) The taxpayer has filed for bankruptcy protection.
