FAR Provision *52.212-2, Evaluation -- Commercial Items (Oct 14), applies to this acquisition and the following evaluation is applicable:

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this RFQ to the responsible vendor whose quote conforming to the RFQ will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotes:

1. Technical: Quote must be rated as technically acceptable to be eligible for award. To be deemed technically acceptable, the following evaluation criteria must be met:

Technical Capability: The Government's technical evaluation team shall evaluate offeror's technical offer on an acceptable or unacceptable basis. Any factor evaluated as “Unacceptable” will render the entire offer unacceptable and, therefore, cannot be awarded. Only those offers determined to be technically acceptable, either initially or as a result of communications, will be considered for award.

However, the offeror is reminded that the Government reserves the right to award this effort based on the initial offer, as received, without discussion. The term “technical” as used herein, refers to non-price factors other than past performance. The purpose of the technical evaluation is to assess whether the offeror's offer will satisfy the government's minimum requirements. An Unacceptable assessment will render the entire offer cannot be awarded. The Government will use the following table to assess the contractor's technical acceptability:

ACCEPTABLE - Offer clearly meets the requirements of the RFQ and Attachment 2 – Specifications Document

UNACCEPTABLE - Offer does not meet the requirements of the RFQ and Attachment 2 – Specifications Document

2. Past Performance: Award will not be made to any offeror that has relevant negative past performance.

3. Price: Award will be made to the lowest priced vendor meeting all other evaluation criteria.

(b) A vendor must be determined to be responsible by the Contracting Officer in order to be eligible for award.

Responsibility is described in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 9.1, “Responsible Prospective Contractors.” Part of the determination addresses financial capability. Please provide the names, addresses and points of contact for all financial institution organizations utilized to determine if contractor has adequate financial resources to perform the contract or the ability to obtain them to include written authority to contact the provided financial institution.

(c) A written notice of award or acceptance of a quote, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful vendor within the time for acceptance specified in the quote, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the quote’s specified expiration time, the Government may accept a quote (or part of a quote), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
