EVALUATION CRITERIA

The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the most responsible offeror whose offer, conforming to the solicitation, is found to be most advantageous to the Government. The following two factors will be used to evaluate offers:

Factor 1: Price

The offeror's price quote will be evaluated for award purposes based on the total price for all Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs). The Government will review overall quoted pricing and rank offerors from lowest to highest based on Total Evaluated Price (TEP), calculated by totaling all CLINs. Award will be made on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) basis.

Factor 2: Technical

Each quote will be evaluated on an Acceptable or Not Acceptable basis. “Acceptable” means the quote clearly meets all minimum requirements of the solicitation; “Not Acceptable” means the quote does not clearly meet the minimum requirements. The quote must clearly demonstrate that all requirements in the Salient Characteristics and Statement of Objectives (SOO) attachments will be met. Failure to meet any of the technical criteria below will result in a rating of Not Technically Acceptable and removal from further consideration.

The following criteria checklist will be used to determine technical acceptability:

Technical Criteria Yes No

1. Vendors shall include a Statement of Work (SOW) with proposal, outlining installation procedures they will perform in accordance with Government Statement of Objectives (SOO).

2. Vendors shall include accurate List of Materials (LOM) that they will be providing, that reflects all Government requested items and services included on SOO.
