If adequate price competition does not exist, Price will be fully evaluated using the price analysis techniques contained in the Evaluation Criteria, Addendum to FAR 52.212-2. The result of this evaluation is to determine which Offeror represents the lowest price in accordance with the terms of the solicitation.

The government will utilize FAR 9.104 and FAR clauses 52.209-5 (Certification Regarding Responsibility Matters (Aug 2020)), 52.209-7 (Information Regarding Responsibility Matters (Oct 2018)) and 52.209-11 (Representation by Corporations Regarding Delinquent Tax Liability or a Felony Conviction under any Federal Law (Feb 2016)) to determine if the Offeror is Responsible and eligible for contract award.

(d) If the lowest priced Offeror is deemed Responsible and eligible for award, the government technical evaluation team will evaluate the technical (non-cost) factors for technical acceptability using FAR 52.212-2 and its Addendum. The technical acceptability factors include:

This process will continue until an Offer is determined to meet all parameters of the solicitation.

(g) If no Offeror is found to meet all the requirements, the government will enter into discussions IAW FAR 15.306 with all offerors to address deficiencies or concerns. If discussions do not resolve the deficiencies or concerns, the Government will resolicit.
