(End of Addendum to 52.212-1)
Please be advised:
(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 (Please also see Attch. 2 – Vendor’s Questionnaire for Technical Evaluation for further details):
1) Technical Acceptability IAW SOW
2) Certifications
3) Ability to start on Expected Period of Performance
4) Price
Factor 1: Technical Acceptibility
Quotes will only be considered from those who are regularly involved in the business called for as listed in Statement of Work (SOW).
1) : The Contractor shall provide all personnel, transportation, imaging phantoms, equipment and software to supply Nuclear Medicine Specialty Medical Physicist services in support of the Veterans Affairs North Texas Health Care System (VANTHCS) Nuclear Medicine Service.
Factor 2: Certifications (Please also see Attch. 2 – Vendor’s Questionnaire for Technical Evaluation)
Prior to commencing work all Contractor employees shall meet certain criteria to perform work under this contract as a Medical Physicist.
Factor 3) Period of Performance The period of performance will be from January 20th, 2025 through January 19th, 2026 with the possibility of additional option years to extend the contract. This position will include a low-level Background Investigation.
Factor 5: Price
1) Pricing: Contractor shall submit unit prices rounded to the nearest hundredth. Prices should be documented on the Price/Cost Schedule with the correct unit price and total amounts.
2) Period for acceptance of offers: The offeror agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 30 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of offers.
Prices will be evaluated for completeness and reasonableness. Unrealistically high or low proposed costs or prices, initially or subsequently, may be grounds for eliminating an offeror from competition either on the basis that the offeror does not understand the requirement or has submitted an unrealistic offer. Additionally, unbalanced pricing poses an unacceptable risk to the Government and may be reason to reject an offer. The burden of proof for credibility of proposed costs/prices rests with the offeror. The Government reserves the right to amend the solicitation and remove any set-aside should pricing of all quotes be found unreasonable.
(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.
viii. Offeror must complete FAR 52.204-24 must be completed in SAM on-line.
