A. Basis for Contract Award: The Government intends to award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible and responsive offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the

Government, considering the factors listed in this provision.

1. In accordance with FAR 13.106-2(b)(3), the Government will utilize comparative evaluations, and give preliminary consideration to all offers received in response to this solicitation. The Government will identify from all evaluated quotes, readily discernible value indicators that fall within the parameters of price and past performance. Therefore, the Government reserves the right, but is not obligated, to select an awardee that provides benefit to the

Government that exceeds the minimum outlined standards. Additionally, the Government is not bound to select an awardee whose quote may exceed the minimum requirement, but whose additional value or benefit is not deemed substantial enough by the Government evaluation team.

Instructions to Offerors

Evaluation Criteria

2. The Government award decision is not limited to the quote that only provides the lowest price. However, if no quotes received in response to the solicitation exceed the minimum criteria outlined in this provision, as determined by the Government evaluation team; then the Government intends to award a contract to the lowest priced offer, both “fair and reasonable” and “realistic”, that meets the instructions outlined in 52.212-1 and its addendum.

3. The Government intends to make an award without conducting discussions with offerors after the close of the solicitation. Therefore, offerors should provide their best available pricing to the Government in their initial quote.

B. Evaluation Factors: The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotes:

1. Price: At minimum; the offeror must provide pricing in accordance with the instructions outlined in 52.212-1 and its addendum. The offeror that provides the lowest price that can be determined both "fair and reasonable" and

"realistic" by the Contracting Officer may be given additional consideration for awardee selection. However, the

Government is under no obligation to do so.

• The Government will only evaluate prices submitted on Attachment 2 - Price Schedule. During the evaluation process the Contracting Officer will determine a "Total Evaluated Price" (TEP) for each responsive quote.

The TEP is determined by totaling the amount of all line items identified in Attachment 2.

• The term "Fair and Reasonable" for the purposes of this evaluation is defined as the price is not deemed too high when conducting evaluation of the proposed price in accordance with FAR 13.106-3, Award and

Documentation.

• The term "Realistic" for the purposes of this evaluation is defined as the price is not deemed too low, and therefore reflects a lack of understanding of the contract requirements, or an undue risk inherent in the offerors approach.

2. Past Performance: In accordance with FAR 13.106-2(ii) the Government will evaluate past performance based on the one or more of the following:

• The Contracting Officer’s knowledge of and previous experience with the supply or service being acquired

• Customer surveys, and past performance questionnaire replies

• The Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS)

• Any other reasonable basis
