2) Technical Compliance. Quotes will be evaluated based upon how well they adhere to this solicitation's specifications (Attachment # 1) and will be rated on an Acceptable/Not Acceptable basis.

The Contracting Officer further reserves the right to conduct price realism to determine whether quotes are so low/high they reflect a lack of technical understanding by the quoter. If deemed necessary, the Contracting Officer shall reject any quote that is deemed unrealistically low/high.

However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions with vendors if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all quotes if such action is in the public interest; and may waive informalities and minor irregularities in quotes received.
