(viii) FAR 52.212-1 Instructions to Offerors -- Commercial Items (Oct 2018) is hereby incorporated by reference, with the same force and effect as if it were given in full text. In addition to the following addendum, all terms and conditions of FAR 52.212-1 remain in effect. The following have been tailored to this procurement and are hereby added via addendum:

1. To assure timely and equitable evaluation of the proposal, the Offerors must follow the instructions contained herein. The proposal must be complete, self-sufficient, and respond directly to the requirements of this solicitation. If awarded the contract the contractor is required to submit a signed copy of the contract confirming receipt of the contractual document within five (5) business days.

2. Specific Instructions: The response shall consist of the following:

a. Submit one (1) copy of technical capabilities statement as specified in the Performance Work Statement with emphasis on paragraphs 5.2.1 Preventative Maintenance Inspections, 5.2.3 Correct Maintenance,

5.2.4 Scheduled Maintenance.

b. Submit one completed copy of price schedule (Attachment 1).

c. Submit one completed copy of Representation FAR 52.204-24 (Attachment 3).

(ix) FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation -- Commercial Items (Oct 2014) this provision has been tailored to this procurement and is provided in full-text below:

(a) The Government will award a purchase order resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose proposal conforming to this solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate each proposal:

(1) Price: The Government will select the proposal with the lowest evaluated price which meets or exceeds the acceptability standards for non-price factors.

(2) Technical acceptability: The Government will evaluate the technical proposal for acceptability based on the requirements within the Performance Work Statement (PWS).

The Government will rank the proposals from lowest price to highest price.

The price of a six month extension authorized by 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, will be added to the total proposed price. Option to Extend Services formula calculation is discussed below:

The Total Evaluated Price (TEP) is a two-part computation. First, the offerors total proposed price will be determined by adding the total of the base year and each option year identified in the Pricing Schedule. The sum will be the offerors total proposed price. Second, the proposed price plus the sum of Option to Extend

Services clause 52.217-8 formula (shown below) will constitute the TEP.

The formula for the Option to Extend Services amount is as follows:

CLIN unit price for Option Year 4 multiplied by .5 = Option to Extend Services amount

Evaluating the Option CLINs does not obligate the Government to exercise the Options.

Next the Government will evaluate the technical proposal on an acceptable or unacceptable basis, starting with the lowest priced proposal. The Acceptable and unacceptable definitions are as follows:

Acceptable: Proposal clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable: Proposal does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Any factor that is “unacceptable” will render the entire proposal unacceptable and, therefore not awardable.

The next lowest priced proposal will then be technically evaluated.

If the lowest priced evaluated proposal is judged to have an “acceptable” technical rating and is determined to be responsible, that offeror represents the best value for the Government and the evaluation process stops at this point.

Price: The offeror’s separately priced line items or subline items shall be analyzed to determine if the prices are unbalanced in accordance with FAR 15.404-1(g). The Government reserves the right to perform price realism analysis. If the Government elects to perform a price realism analysis, the Government reserves discretion over the method within which it performs its price realism analysis. If the Government elects to perform a price realism analysis and finds a quote unrealistic, the Government may withhold award to that offeror.

Offerors are cautioned to submit sufficient information and in the format specified in 52.212-1, Instructions to

Offerors – Commercial Items, of this solicitation. Offerors may be asked to clarify certain aspects of their proposals. Exchanges conducted to resolve minor or clerical errors will not constitute discussions and the contracting officer reserves the right to award a contract without the opportunity for proposal revision. The

Government intends to award a contract without discussions with respective offerors, however, will reserve the right to conduct them if deemed in its best interest.

Award will be made once price fair and reasonable has been determined IAW FAR Part 13.106-3(a). The proposal may also be evaluated for price reasonableness IAW FAR Part 15.404-1.
