(viii) FAR 52.212-1 Instructions to Offerors -- Commercial Items (Jun 2020) 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 quote, the Offerors must follow the instructions contained herein.

The quote 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 Pricing sheet (Attachment 1), to include all costs associated with the remediation and disposal of all asbestos and lead containing material IAW the PWS (Attachment 2)

b. Submit one (1) copy of

Valid and current license, in the state of Alaska, for the removal, transporting, disposal, or other regulatory activity relative to the work of this contract

c. Submit one (1) copy of completed FAR/DFARS Clauses (all listed in entirety below):

DFARS 252.204-7017 section d FAR 52.209-11 section b FAR 52.204-24 section d FAR 52.204-26 section c

NOTE: If a Contractor fails to submit any of the required information requested above, their quote may be deemed unresponsive and not considered for award.

(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) Government will award a purchase order resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, without discussions with respective offerors. The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotes:

(1) Price - The Government will select the quote 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 submittal for acceptability based on the requirements within the Performance Work Statement (PWS).

The Government will rank the quotes from lowest price to highest price based on the Total Evaluated Price.

The Total Evaluated Price (TEP) will be computed as follows: The offerors total proposed price will be determined by adding the total of the all CLIN’s including Option CLINs as identified in the Pricing Schedule. The sum of all CLIN’s including Option CLINs will represent the offerors Total Evaluated Price.

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

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

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

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

Any factor that is “unacceptable” will render the entire quote unacceptable and, therefore not awardable. The next lowest priced quote will then be technically evaluated.

If the lowest priced evaluated quote 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 quote.

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 quote 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 quote may also be evaluated for price reasonableness IAW FAR Part 15.404-1.
