Award will be made to the lowest, technically acceptable offeror for a black & white copier or a color copier or a combination of both. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: `Failure to provide the requested information may cause your offer to be found non-responsive.

1. Technical Capability (Viewed as a measure of contractor’s relevant experience and past performance)

2. Price

Technical Capability is comprised of an offerors past performance and experience. The Experience Questionnaire Form shall be completed by each offeror or provide the same information in an alternative format.

Furnish a list of three projects of relevant and similar magnitude completed by the firm within the last five years. For each project cited, provide:

The information from this form will be used to evaluate recent experience performing contract work. It will also provide contact information for previous projects that will be utilized in evaluating each offeror’s past performance.

Past performance is a measure of the degree to which an offeror, as an organization, has: (1) satisfied its customers, and (2) Met required delivery date(s). The Government will inquire about the following elements, which are all of equal importance in relation to each other, (1) quality of the offeror’s work; (2) customer satisfaction; (3) timeliness of the Firm during performance and the final completion of the project; and (4) overall business relations.

Price – Provide your most competitive price. Note: unit price prevails; all pricing should be in the format of dollars and cents.

Technical and past performance, when combined, are approximately equal to price.

(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.
