TECHNICAL EVALUATION CRITERIA

(A) Basis for Award

This acquisition will be made on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) basis. Technical tradeoffs will not be made and no additional credit will be given for exceeding acceptability. Award will be made to the acceptable offeror with the lowest evaluated cost or price, which is deemed responsible in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation and whose proposal conforms to the solicitation requirements. The solicitation requirements include all stated terms, conditions, representations, certifications, and all other information required by Synopsis Solicitation document.

(B) Evaluation Methodology:

1. Initially, offers shall be ranked according to price from the lowest price to highest based on the Total Evaluated Price (TEP). The TEP will be used for Price comparison and evaluation.

2. Next, the government will review the technical portion of the proposal submitted by the two lowest priced offers on an acceptable/unacceptable basis to ensure the solicitation requirements including all stated terms, conditions, representations, certifications, and all other information required by this solicitation are met. The next lowest priced offeror will only be evaluated if either of the aforementioned offers are found technically unacceptable (and so on) until two offerors are found technically acceptable. Only proposals deemed technically acceptable will be considered for award.
