(c) Late submissions, modifications, revisions, and withdrawals of offers.

(1) Offerors are responsible for submitting offers and any modifications or revisions to the Government office designated in the solicitation by the time specified in the solicitation.

(2) Any offer, modification, or revision received after the time specified for receipt of offers is “late” and will not be considered unless it is received before award is made and the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late offer would not unduly delay the acquisition. However, a late modification of an otherwise successful offer that makes its terms more favorable to the Government will be considered at any time it is received and may be accepted.

(3) If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal Government processes so that offers cannot be received at the Government office designated for receipt of offers by the exact time specified in the solicitation, and urgent Government requirements preclude amendment of the solicitation or other notice of an extension of the closing date, the time specified for receipt of offers will be deemed to be extended to the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day on which normal Government processes resume.

(4) Offerors may withdraw their offers by written notice to the Government received at any time before award.

(d) Contract award (not applicable to Invitation for Bids). The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with Offerors. Therefore, the Offeror’s initial offer should contain the Offeror’s best terms. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions, if necessary. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest, accept other than the lowest offer, and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.

(e) Debriefings. If a post award debriefing is given to requesting Offerors, the Government will disclose the following information, if applicable:

(1) The agency’s evaluation of the significant weak or deficient factors in the debriefed Offeror’s offer.

(2) The overall evaluated cost or price and technical rating of the successful Offeror and the debriefed Offeror and past performance information on the debriefed Offeror.

(3) The overall ranking of all Offerors when any ranking was developed by the agency during source selection.

(4) A summary of the rationale for award.

(5) For acquisitions of commercial products, the make and model of the product to be delivered by the successful Offeror.

(6) Reasonable responses to relevant questions posed by the debriefed Offeror as to whether the agency followed source-selection procedures set forth in the solicitation, applicable regulations, and other applicable authorities.

3. Please provide item specifications/technical information to us. This information must be sufficient for us to determine that each item either fits or does not fit the description of what we’re asking for.

4. We intend to issue the award without interchanges; however, the Government reserves the right to conduct interchanges with one, some, or all Offerors if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may waive informalities and minor irregularities in quotations received; therefore, the Offeror’s initial quotation should be complete and contain the Offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. Failure to follow all of these instructions may render you ineligible for award.

Addendum to RFO 52.212-2 -- Evaluation – Commercial Items

1.0 Basis for Contract Award:

This acquisition will be conducted under the procedures of RFO Part 12 – Acquisition of Commercial Products and Commercial Services. In accordance with RFO 12.203(c)(2), the procedures prescribed in RFO Part 15 are not mandatory, and therefore, the evaluation procedures established herein are within the Contracting Officer’s broad discretion as applied under RFO Part 12. This acquisition will utilize lowest price as the evaluation factor. Award will be made to the vendor with the lowest price and whose quotation conforms to the solicitation requirements (to include all stated terms, conditions, representations, and certifications). The Government intends to award without interchanges. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct interchanges if determined necessary by the Contracting Officer.

1.1 Solicitation Requirements (Terms and Conditions)

Vendors are required to meet all solicitation requirements, such as terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and Statement of Work (SOW) requirements, in addition to price factors. Failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the solicitation may result in the vendor being ineligible for award. Vendors 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 quotation, therefore, ineligible for award.

1.2 Number of Contracts to be Awarded:

The Government intends to select one contractor for this acquisition. However, the Government reserves the right not to award a contract at all, depending on the quality of the quotation, prices submitted, and the availability of funds.

1.3 Interchanges

In accordance with RFO 1.102-2(c)(3) the Government shall exercise discretion, use sound business judgement, and comply with applicable laws and regulations during the course of this acquisition. The Government intends to award without interchanges, but reserves the right to conduct interchanges if necessary. Therefore, it is imperative that vendors submit their best terms initially. If during the evaluation of quotations, it is determined to be in the best interest of the Government to conduct interchanges, the Contracting Officer may conduct interchanges with one, some, or all vendors before issuing any purchase order.

Interchanges are information sharing between the Government and vendors after receipt of quotations which can be conducted to address any aspect of the quotation. Interchanges may be oral or written. Written interchanges take the form of Interchange Notices (IN)s. INs are used to accurately capture contemporaneous sharing of information. If interchanges are conducted, the Government may request final quotation revisions at the conclusion of interchanges.

2.0 Evaluation Factors Used to Evaluate Each Quotation:

Award will be made to the vendor quoting the combination of factors deemed most advantageous to the Government based upon an integrated assessment of the evaluation factors described below.

Factor 1: Price

2.1 Factor 1 – Price

Price quotations will be evaluated as follows:

2.2 Completeness

Quotations will be reviewed for completeness. Incomplete quotes will be considered ineligible for award.

2.3 Price Realism

The Government intends to determine price realism based on adequate price competition. In the event the Government cannot determine price realism based on adequate price competition, the Government reserves the right to conduct a more detailed price realism evaluation using one or more of the price analysis techniques described in RFO 12.204. The Government may also use other evaluation techniques, as needed.

To be realistic, the proposed price must demonstrate an adequate understanding of the requirement. Quoted prices that are determined to be unrealistically low due to an inadequate understanding of the requirement will make the quotation ineligible for award.

2.4 Unbalanced Pricing

Vendors’ quotations will be reviewed for unbalanced pricing. The Government will evaluate any supporting information provided by the vendor explaining variances that appear unbalanced. Evaluated quotes that are determined to be unbalanced may be deemed ineligible for award by the Contracting Officer if a determination is made that lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government. Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total price, the price of one or more line-items (including sub line items) is significantly over or understated as demonstrated by application of price analysis techniques, such that:

a) There is reasonable doubt the quote would result in the lowest overall cost to the Government, even though it is the lowest priced quote; or

b) The quote is so grossly unbalanced; its acceptance would be tantamount to allowing an advanced payment.

The ombudsman may refer the interested party to another official who can resolve the concern.

Before consulting with an ombudsman, interested parties must first address their concerns, issues, disagreements, and/or recommendations to the contracting officer for resolution.
