52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS AND COMMERCIAL SERVICES

(a) Agreement(s) will be made to the quoter(s) whose quotation offers the best value to the government, considering price, technical approach, and past performance. The government will evaluate information based on the following evaluation criteria: (1) price, (2) technical approach, and (3) past performance.

Factor 1 – Price The offeror’s price will be evaluated using the price analysis techniques described at FAR 13.106-3(a) to determine a fair & reasonable price to the government.

Factor 2 – Technical Approach

The Government will evaluate each offeror’s ability to accomplish the technical requirements and the ratings established from evaluation shall be based on the table below:

Technical Approach Acceptable/Unacceptable Rating Method

Adjectival Rating Description

Acceptable Based on the offeror’s responses to technical approach questions, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Unacceptable Based on the offeror’s responses to technical approach questions, the Government does not have a reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

The Government will consider the information above, as well as information obtained from any other sources, when evaluating the offeror's technical approach.

Factor 3 – Past Performance

Submission Requirements Quote must include completed page 3, Current/Past Performance, of the attachment included with solicitation. The Government shall evaluate offeror past performance either as acceptable/unacceptable considering the submitted Past Performance (do not include Adjective Ratings and Definitions), representing the offeror’s relevant Past Performance. Past Performance on projects shall be the same or similar in size, scope, complexity, and dollar magnitude as the project described in the solicitation.

Additionally, the Government may obtain and evaluate past performance information from any other sources available to the Government, to include, but not limited to, the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), or other databases;

interviews with Program Managers, Contracting Officers, and Fee Determining Officials; and the Defense Contract Management Agency. The Government will review this past performance information in addition Past Performance Questionnaires (PPQ) submitted and utilize all Past Performance information to assign a rating of Acceptable/Unacceptable.

The Government will evaluate past performance either as acceptable or unacceptable. The recency and relevancy of the information (as determined by the Government), the source of the information, context of the data, and general trends in the contractor’s performance may be considered.

After the team completes its evaluation it will assign a rating of Acceptable/Unacceptable based on the following definitions:

Past Performance Evaluation Ratings Ratings Description Acceptable Based on the offeror’s past performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror’s performance record is unknown. *

Unacceptable Based on the offeror’s past performance record, the Government does not have a reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

*Note: In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance (see FAR 15.305 (a)(2)(iv)). Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “unknown” shall be considered “Unacceptable”.

Price, Technical Approach, and Past Performance are all equal in level of importance.

(b) 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.
