EVALUATION OF QUOTATIONS

The Government may issue one or more purchase order(s) as a result of this Request for Quotations to the responsible quoter whose quote conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government. Award will be made on a Best Value basis considering past performance, experience, capability, capacity, price, and overall cost to the Government. Price and overall cost to the Government will be approximately equal to all other evaluation factors when combined.

The Government may issue an order to other than the lowest quoter, waive minor informalities or irregularities in quotes received, or elect not to award at all. If necessary, the Government may conduct discussions with any or all quoters. It is in the quoter’s best interest to fully respond to the Experience Questionnaire since an order may be issued on the basis of information received, without further discussion.
