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).

BASIS FOR AWARD: Award will be made on the basis of the lowest evaluated priced quote meeting the technical acceptability standards above. A quote is technically acceptable if it is fully compliant with all of the requirements and specifications of the terms and conditions herein.

A written notice 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.
