The offeror accedes to the terms of this model contract and all such offers shall be treated equally except for their prices and technical evaluation. An "unacceptable" rating in any factor will result in the overall technical quote being rated "unacceptable" and the quote will therefore be ineligible for award. The Government may at its discretion also utilize information available from Government Past Performance collection systems to compare offerors and use this information as a discriminator when identifying the offer that represents the best selection. Quotes will be evaluated using FAR 13.106-2 procedures which permit comparative evaluation of offers. While the Government will strive for maximum objectivity, the selection process is by its nature subjective. Therefore, professional judgment is implicit throughout the entire process. The evaluation process shall proceed as follows:

The following documents will be evaluated for completeness and compliance with the requirements of the RFQ. Please refer to the instructions in 52.212-1 Addendum. Incomplete items may be a basis for rejection:

2. Part II, Technical The quote shall consist of a detailed breakdown showing how all of the performance requirements listed in the Purchase Description titled “PD CNC Automatic Programmable Hole-to-Hole Cylinder Boring Machine Rottler F10X or Equal listed in section 3 titled Technical Specifications.” of this Combined Synopsis Solicitation, will be met.

B-2 PRICE EVALUATION. Quotes will be ranked from lowest to highest Total Evaluated Price (TEP). An offeror's Total Evaluated Price will be determined by totaling the Amount for all CLINs. Offerors shall enter the TEP on Page 2 & 3 of this Combined Synopsis Solicitation document. The offeror is responsible for ensuring that the value listed as the TEP is the total of all CLINS provided in the solicitation. (Note: To prevent rounding discrepancies, please ensure unit prices used for calculation are rounded to the nearest whole dollar. It is the responsibility of each contractor to verify his or her calculations.

B-3 TECHNICAL EVALUATION.

The Government's technical evaluation shall evaluate the technical quotes on a pass/fail basis, assigning a rating of Acceptable or Unacceptable. An offer must be rated "acceptable" in order to be eligible for award. An "unacceptable" rating will result in the overall technical quote being rated "unacceptable" and the quote will therefore be ineligible for award. The Government will utilize the information provided by the offeror, along with information collected from other sources (i.e., other Government offices, commercial sources, etc.), in making a technical acceptability determination. If an Offeror's technical quote is determined to be Technically Unacceptable, no further evaluation will be conducted. Offerors determined to be technically unacceptable shall be eliminated from consideration for contract award.
