52.212-2 Evaluation-Commercial Products and Commercial Services (Nov 2021)

(RFO DEVIATION January 30, 2026).

(a) Evaluation factors. The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible Offeror whose proposal conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors will be used to evaluate quotations:

1. Technical Compliance

2. Price

(b) Options. The Government will evaluate quotations 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. The evaluation of options does not obligate the

Government to exercise the option(s).

(c) Notice of award. A written notice of award or acceptance of a quotation furnished to the successful Offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the quotation, shall result in a binding Purchase Order without further action by either party. Before the offer’s specified expiration time, the Government may accept a quotation (or part of a quotation), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.

(End of provision)

BASIS FOR AWARD

(a) The evaluation of offers will be based on best value using comparative evaluation authorized under RFO FAR 12.203(c)(2). A comparative evaluation is defined as the act of comparing two or more offers in response to the RFQ. The line-by-line comparison is performed by comparing each offer directly to one another to determine which provides the best value to the Government. This is NOT a low price technically acceptable or trade-off process.

This selection process will utilize RFO FAR 12 procedures.

(b) After preliminary consideration of all offers, the Department will no longer consider offers that do not meet basic standards to be eligible for award. The offers that remain will be subject to a comparative evaluation.

The preliminary evaluation process shall include the following:

COMPLIANCE REVIEW. The Government will perform an initial review of proposals/quotations received to determine completeness and compliance with the terms of the solicitation. The Government may reject as unacceptable proposals/quotations that do not conform to the solicitation.

(c) EVALUATION CRITERIA. Proposals will be evaluated on the basis of a direct comparison to other offers to discern if there is any kind of performance quality superiority that would support an award to a higher priced offer as described below.

1. Technical: Technical will be evaluated on the basis of a direct comparison to other offers to discern if there is any kind of technical quality superiority that would support an award to a higher priced offer.

2. Past Performance: Past performance will be evaluated on the basis of a direct comparison to other offers to discern if there is any significant past performance superiority that would support an award to a higher priced offer. Past performance as a discriminator may be appropriate where based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

3. Price: Price will be evaluated to ensure the proposed price is fair and reasonable.

The price will be determined by multiplying the offered prices times the estimated quantities in “Prices – Section (ii)”, and arriving at a grand total, including all options. The Government reserves the right to reject proposals that are unreasonably low or high in price.

(d) 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.

(e) RESPONSIBILITY DETERMINATION: The Government will determine contractor responsibility by analyzing whether the apparent successful offeror complies with the requirements of FAR 9.1, including:

• Adequate financial resources or the ability to obtain them;

• Ability to comply with the required performance period, taking into consideration all existing commercial and governmental business commitments;

• Satisfactory record of integrity and business ethics;

• Necessary organization, experience, and skills or the ability to obtain them;

• Necessary equipment and facilities or the ability to obtain them; and

• Be otherwise qualified and eligible to receive an award under applicable laws and regulations.

(f) ELIGIBILITY FOR AWARD: To be eligible for award, offerors are required to meet all solicitation requirements, such as terms and conditions, non-price and price instructions in paragraph (iii). Failure to comply with all or any specific solicitation requirements and instructions may result in the offeror being removed from award consideration.

The Government may reject, without consideration of past performance or price, any proposal that has been rated “unacceptable” under any non-past performance and non-price factor. Such proposal will be considered technically unacceptable.

The Government may reject any proposal from an offeror is determined to be not responsible. The determination of offeror responsibility will be made by the Contracting

Officer and will be assessed on the pass/fail basis. The Government will make its determination of offeror responsibility in accordance with FAR 9.1 by using information provided in the proposal and information available from other sources.
