FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation – Commercial Items. (Oct 2014) Section M

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

(1) Price

(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. The Government may determine that a quote is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options will not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

(c) A written notice of award or acceptance of a quote, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful quoter within the time for acceptance specified in the quote, will 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.

Addendum to FAR 52.212, Evaluation - Commercial Items

The following is inserted as new paragraph (d) of the provision:

(d) Basis for Contract Award: This is a competitive award determined by lowest price that meets the requirement specifications, and is conducted in accordance with (IAW) Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Parts 12 and 13. By submission of its quote IAW the instructions provided in clause FAR 52.212-

1, Instructions to Offerors – Commercial Items, the quoter accedes to all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions and representations and certification. Failure to meet a requirement may result in a quote being determined unacceptable. Award will be made to the lowest quote. The evaluation process will include the following:

Quoters are cautioned to submit sufficient information and in the format specified in FAR 52.212-1 of this solicitation. The Government intends to award a contract without further interchanges with quoters.

Consequently, quoters are highly encouraged to quote their best quote in their initial submissions.

However, the Government reserves the right to have interchanges with any or all quoters, if it is determined advantageous for the Government to do so. This statement is not to be construed to mean that the Government is obligated to have interchanges with every quoter (note that FAR Part 15 procedures do not apply to FAR 13 procedures, therefore formal discussions are not applicable). A quoter may be eliminated from consideration without further interchanges if its quote is not among those considered most advantageous to the Government based on a best value determination.
