1352.213-70 Evaluation utilizing simplified acquisition procedures.

Evaluation Utilizing Simplified Acquisition Procedures (APR 2010) The Government intends to award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose quotation conforms to the solicitation and is determined to be the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA). The Government may award without discussions; therefore, each initial quotation should contain the offeror’s best terms.

Technical acceptability is defined as the offeror’s ability to meet all the required characteristics identified in the specifications outlined in the RFQ and the offeror’s demonstrated ability to successfully perform the contract, based on an evaluation of past performance. Only the lowest-priced quote will be evaluated for technical acceptability. If the lowest-priced quote is found not technically acceptable, the Government will proceed to evaluate the next lowest-priced quote, and so on, until a technically acceptable offer is identified. As a result, not all offers submitted may be evaluated.

(c) The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotations:

1. Past Performance The Government will evaluate the offeror’s past performance on related contracts to assess the likelihood of successful performance. This includes, as appropriate, successful completion of contract requirements, quality and timeliness of delivery, cost control, communication with contracting officials, proactive management, and customer satisfaction. Offerors shall provide a minimum of two, but no more than three, past performance references. Each reference must include: the company or Government agency name, project title, address, point of contact’s name, telephone number, and email address.

2. Price Price will be evaluated for reasonableness, and award will be made to the lowest-priced technically acceptable offer. Offerors are required to provide a unit price for all items. Evaluation of price will be based on the total of Contract Line-Item Numbers (CLINs) 0001 through 0004. A unit price of $0.00 will be interpreted as the item or service being provided at no cost to the Government. Unit prices that are left blank or annotated with anything other than a numeric dollar amount may be considered unacceptable, and the Government reserves the right to reject such offers without further consideration. Additionally, the Government may determine an offer unacceptable if the pricing is significantly unbalanced.
