E.4 52.212-2 EVALUATION—COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT 2014)

a) Basis of Award. This procurement is being conducted pursuant to FAR Part 13 procedures. The

Government intends to award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror who offers the lowest price, whose price is found to be reasonable, and whose quote does not take exception with any of the requirements for this procurement specified in the solicitation. In addition to the general standards of responsibility found at FAR § 9.104-1, in accordance with FAR § 9.104-2, the special standards of responsibility described below apply to this procurement. Offerors who fail to meet the special standards of responsibility will not be eligible to receive contract award.

1) Special Standards of Responsibility. The following special standards of responsibility apply to this procurement:

SP1: Contractor Business License. Offeror shall possess a Contractor’s License issued by the State of

California in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 9 of Division 3 of the Business and Professions

Code, as amended.

SP2: Class “B” – General Building Contractor or Class “C” Plumbing Contractor License. Offeror shall possess a Class “B” – General Building Contractor or Class C-36 Plumbing Contractor License issued by the California State License Board.

b) Evaluation Process. Quotes will be evaluated in the following manner. The lowest-priced offer will be identified. The quote for the lowest-priced offer will be evaluated to determine if the offered price FOR

36C26219Q0410 IS reasonable and if the quote does not take exception with any of the requirements for this procurement. If the price is found to be reasonable and the quote does not take exception with any of the requirements for this procurement, this offeror will be identified as the “successful offeror.” The contracting officer will determine if the successful offeror is responsible using the general and special standards of responsibility for this procurement. If contract award cannot be made to the successful offeror, the contracting officer will evaluate the next lowest-priced offer. This process will continue until a contract award can be made, or the contracting officer determines that no contract award can be made.

The contracting officer may find all offers not acceptable and cancel the procurement if the lowest-priced offer exceeds the amount of funding available for the procurement. The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions at any time if determined by the contracting officer to be in the Government’s interest.

c) 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).

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.
