52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT 2014)

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, with price being the only factor considered. There will be no technical evaluation performed on offers to select the successful offeror.

(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). As part of the price evaluation, the Government will evaluate the Option to Extend Services under FAR 52.217-8 by adding one-half of the offeror's final option period price to the offeror's total price. Thus, the offeror's total evaluated price will include the base period, Option Year 1, Option Year 2, Option Year 3, and Option Year 4 and one-half of Option Year 4. Offerors are required only to price the base and four (4) options. Offerors shall not submit a price for the potential six month extension of services period.

(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.
