- Paragraph (g) second sentence revised as follows: “The Government intends to evaluate quotes and award a contract without interchanges. The government however, reserves the right to conduct interchanges with one, some, none or all vendors at its discretion."

- Paragraph (B)(12) is added as follows:

(v) Total Yearly Revenue (used to evaluate size status)

(vi) Estimated Delivery Date

(vii) Payment Terms

2. Evaluation of Quotations

Pursuant to RFO 12.203 contract award will be made using Simplified Acquisition Procedures in accordance with RFO 12.201-1. Quotes will be evaluated based on responses to below factors.

a. Technical Approach- Provide a technical solution describing how offeror intends to fulfill all requirements of the Statement of Work (SOW), attachment 1.

b. Price- To be considered responsive, vendors shall provide pricing for all items specified in the above CLIN Schedule.

3. Basis for Award

Lowest Price Technically Acceptable. A technical advisor will compare a vendor’s quoted solution against the requirements outlined in the SOW (reference attachment 1) and assign a technical rating of either “Acceptable” or “Unacceptable”. If the lowest priced vendor is rated to be “Acceptable”, an award decision can be finalized. If the lowest priced vendor is rated to be “Unacceptable”, review of the next lowest priced quote will continue until an “Acceptable” rating is achieved or until all quotes are evaluated. In order to determine price fair and reasonable, the evaluation process may continue until reaching two technically acceptable quotes (to establish adequate price competition).

4. Quote/Question Suspense & Submission Instructions

NOTE: Required method of receipt is via email. ZIP files are not an acceptable format for the Air Force Network and will not go through our email system. Vendors should place a read/delivery receipt and/or request confirmation of receipt by the government.

Any offer not sent via email to the appropriate government POC’s, will be considered nonresponsive
