Additionally, personal experience and an evaluator personal knowledge of quoters performance may be used.

The Government will determine the acceptability of each quote on a pass or fail basis considering the following factors:

2) A quoter is not currently registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) by the closing date of the solicitation;

4) An incomplete quote that lacks sufficient information for the government to perform a technical evaluation to determine acceptability.

(b) Options. The Government will evaluate quotes for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement.
