(3) Special handling and discharge requirements;

(4) Loading and discharge points;

52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT 2014)

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible vendor whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government; price and other factors considered.

The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

1. Basis for Contract Award:

The Award will be conducted and evaluated under the provisions of FAR Part 12, Commercial Items and FAR Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures. This acquisition will utilize technical acceptability and price as evaluation factors. Technical tradeoffs will not be made and no additional credit will be given for exceeding acceptability. Award will be made to the vendor who is technically acceptable with the lowest total evaluated price (TEP) and whose quotation conforms to the solicitation requirements (to include all stated terms, conditions, representations, and certifications and all other information required by FAR 52.212-1 of this solicitation.) The Government reserves the right to award without interchanges. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct interchanges if determined necessary by the Contracting Officer.

The responsible vendor(s) must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database (available at: https://sam.gov/content/home) and submit a completed copy of the Offeror Representations and Certifications - Commercial Items with their response. Lack of registration in SAM will disqualify the vendor and declare them ineligible for award.

The Oklahoma CityAir Logistics Center (AFSC/PZIMB) at Tinker Air Force Base Oklahoma intends to issue a commercial firm fixed price contract for this acquisition.

2. Number of Contracts to be Awarded:

The Government intends to select one vendor for contract award. However, the Government reserves the right to award no contract at all; depending on the quality of the proposals, prices submitted and the availability of funds, or other factors identified by the Contracting Officer.

3. Rejection of Unreasonable Offers:

The Government may reject any proposal that is evaluated to be unrealistic in terms of program commitments, including contract terms and conditions, or unrealistically high or low in cost/price when compared to Government estimates; such that the proposal is deemed to reflect an inherent lack of competence or failure to comprehend the complexity and risks of the program, item, or service.

4. Correction Potential of Proposals:

The Government will consider, throughout the evaluation, the "correction potential" of any proposal uncertainty.

The judgment of such "correction potential" is within the sole discretion of the Government. If an aspect of a vendor's proposal not meeting the Governments requirements is not considered correctable, the vendor may be eliminated.

5. Evaluation Factors Factor 1--Technical Proposal Factor 2--Cost/Price

a. Evaluation Methodology:

The Government will evaluate all technical factors concurrently for the three (3) lowest priced proposals.

Should all three (3) evaluated proposals be found technically unacceptable, the next one (1) lowest priced offeror will be reviewed for technical acceptance. Then, price will be evaluated and the lowest priced proposal will be selected, either initially or as a result of clarifications.

Award will be made to the lowest evaluated priced proposal meeting the acceptability standards for the non-cost factors.

b. Technical Factor:

Acceptable - The proposal meets specified minimum technical evaluation requirements necessary for acceptable contract performance.

Unacceptable - The proposal fails to meet specified minimum technical evaluation requirements necessary for contract performance. Proposals with an unacceptable rating are not awardable.

Technical acceptability will be based on an evaluation of proposals against the criteria stated below and other technical specifications in the Item Description. Offerors are required to present all the information as stated in the Instructions to Offerors, FAR 52.212-1. The minimum technical evaluation requirement is met when the Offeror's proposal thoroughly substantiates all the following essential criteria:

"CONTRACTOR MUST PROVIDE A WRITTEN STATEMENT TO EXPLAIN HOW THEY ARE

MEETING THE TECHNICAL EVALUATION CRITERIA LISTED BELOW. A STATEMENT OF "I

CONCUR" OR "CONCUR" WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED AND COULD DEEM YOUR PROPOSAL

TECHNICALLY UNACCEPTABLE. THE WRITTEN STATEMENT IS ESSENTIAL FOR YOUR QUOTE

c. Cost/Price Factor:

Cost/Price Evaluation: The vendor's cost/price proposal will be evaluated for award purposes by adding the total price for basic requirements (basic award).

Total Evaluated Price: Price analysis will be performed to determine the reasonableness of the vendor's price proposal. Reasonableness will be based on the total evaluated price. The total evaluated price will be calculated as the sum of the Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) unit/extended prices plus other associated factors such as: first article testing costs, transportation costs, price evaluation adjustments for Small Disadvantaged Business Concerns, and application of labor hours to labor hour rates, etc.

Unreasonably Low Costs or Prices: Unreasonably low proposed costs or prices, initially or subsequently, may be grounds for eliminating a proposal from competition either on the basis that the offeror does not understand the requirement or the offeror has made an unrealistic proposal.

Unbalanced Pricing: Vendors are cautioned against submitting an offer that contains unbalanced pricing.

Unbalanced pricing may increase performance risk and could result in payment of unreasonably high prices.

Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total evaluated price, the price of one or more contract line items is significantly over or understated as indicated by the application of cost or price analysis techniques.

The Government shall analyze offers to determine whether they are unbalanced with respect to separately priced line items or subline items. Offers that are determined to be unbalanced may be rejected if the contracting officer determines that the lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government.

6. Determination of Contractor Responsibility

To be eligible for award, a vendor must be determined responsible. A Determination of Contractor Responsibility will be conducted in accordance with FAR 9.1 (SAM and FAPIIS). A vendor who receives a determination of non-responsibility will not be eligible to receive the contract award.

7. Interchanges:

It is the Government's intent to award without interchanges; therefore, it is imperative that vendors submit their best terms initially. However, if during the evaluation period; it is determined to be in the best interest of the Government to hold interchanges, those interchanges will be considered in making the source selection decision.

8. SOLICITATION REQUIREMENTS, TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Vendors are required to meet all solicitation requirements, such as terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements, in addition to those identified as evaluation factors or sub-factors, and all technical specifications of the item description. Failure to meet a requirement may result in an offer being ineligible for award. Vendors must clearly identify any exception to the solicitation terms and conditions and provide complete accompanying rationale. In the case that a discrepancy exist between the Instruction to Offerors (ITO) and the evaluation factors for award, the evaluation criteria in 52.212-2 will take precedence.
