FAR Provision 52.212-2, Evaluation - Commercial Items, applies to this acquisition. As prescribed in FAR 12.301(c), the following addendum is provided for this solicitation and hereby amends any language therein:

The Government intends to award a Firm-Fixed Price purchase order resulting from this solicitation to the responsible quoter whose quote provides the best value to the Government, in accordance with FAR 13.106- 1(a)(2)(ii) and FAR 2.101. The use of FAR 15.3 and DoD Source Selection Procedures are not applicable to this solicitation, or any award resulting from this solicitation. The following factor shall be used to evaluate quotes:

Price

Past Performance record history will be assessed as one of the multiple standards required for a successful quote to be determined responsible as described in FAR 9.104. Award will be made to the quoter with the lowest total evaluated price (TEP) and whose quote conforms to the material solicitation requirements (to include all stated terms, conditions, representations, and certifications).

Quoters are advised that their quotation may exceed the requirements but the Government is not requesting or accepting alternate quotes, and each response must respond to the solicitation requirement stated in the RFQ. The Government intends to evaluate quotes and issue a purchase order based on the initial quotes received. Therefore, the contractor's initial quote should contain the contractor's best terms from a pricing standpoint. The Government reserves the right to request revised quotes from, or negotiate final terms with, one or more, but not all, contractors if later determined by the contracting officer to be necessary. However, the contracting officer will not establish a competitive range, conduct discussions, or otherwise use the procedures described at FAR 15.306.

Solicitation Requirements (Terms and Conditions)

Offerors are required to meet all material solicitation requirements, such as terms and conditions, representations and certifications, deliverables, Performance Work Statement (PWS), etc. Failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the solicitation may result in the Quoter being ineligible for award. Quoters must clearly identify any exception to the solicitation terms and conditions and must provide complete supporting rationale. The Government reserves the right to determine any such exceptions unacceptable, and the quote, therefore, ineligible for award.

In order for a quote to be eligible for award, the quoter must have a current registration in the System for Award Management (SAM): https://www.sam.gov/SAM prior to award. SAM will be checked to verify the quoter's status before any evaluation is conducted.

Evaluation Criteria

BASIS FOR CONTRACT AWARD

Factor 1 – PRICE

Price quotes will be evaluated as follows:

Completeness:

Upon receival of quotes, the contracting officer will screen quotes to ensure they are complete, and all required information and pricing is present. This will be done quickly, and in the most minimally burdensome fashion, as determined by the contracting officer.

Price Reasonableness:

The proposed prices will be evaluated for reasonableness. Reasonableness must represent a price to the Government a prudent person would pay in the conduct of competitive business. Normally, price reasonableness is based on competitive quotations, as outlined in FAR 13.106-3(a)(1), but price reasonableness may also be determined through price analysis techniques, as described in FAR 13.106.

Total Evaluated Price:

Only the total evaluated price (TEP) submitted in the quote will be evaluated; this includes the total CLIN pricing for the basic year and all options years listed in Attachment 3 – Quote Pricing Sheet, or any acceptable submission of quotes, as outlined in the Instructions to Quoters section above.

The total proposed price for all options will be added to the total proposed price for the basic requirement as a part of the TEP calculation

TEP will be used for evaluation purposes only. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise such options.

Options - Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). In accordance with FAR 52.217-8, the Government may require continued performance of services within the limits and rates specified in the contract. The rates shall be determined to be the unit price of each applicable CLIN, as stated in Schedule of the award of the CLIN, which corresponds with the most recently entered period of performance. Evaluation of proposed CLIN prices constitutes evaluation of the rates used for options exercised under this clause.
