52.212-2 Evaluation – Commercial Items (Jul 2026)

This tailored clause takes precedence over the clause incorporated by reference.

The Government will award a firm fixed priced purchase order resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror 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:

Part I – Priced Quote Part II - Technical Documentation

Award will be made based on the competitive quote with the lowest total evaluated price that meets the technical criteria on an acceptable/unacceptable basis. If any technical criteria are determined to be unacceptable that quote may not be evaluated further and may not be eligible for award.

Addendum to FAR 52.212-2 - Evaluation -- Commercial Items (Jul 2026).

1. Evaluation:

By submission of its quote, the offeror agrees to all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements. Failure to adhere to all solicitation requirements may result in an offer being determined unacceptable and ineligible for further evaluation. The evaluation process follows:

Part I – Priced Quote Evaluation Initially, the Government will place all quotes that meet the requirements of the solicitation in order by price, beginning with the lowest total evaluated price. The total evaluated price will be determined by utilizing the quoted price for the base period, option periods and six-month extension period. The price will be evaluated using a quote identifying the unit price, total line-item price, and overall price for all CLINs 0001-5003 provided in Addendum to RFO 52.212-1 and Attachment 2.

The Government will then evaluate the lowest total evaluated priced offer to determine if it is reasonable and complete. If there is a conflict between the unit price and the overall price, the unit price will be used to determine the correct evaluated price. Failure to quote for any price element may cause the quoter’s quote to be rejected as unacceptable.

Quoters whose evaluated price is unreasonable (in accordance with DFARS 212.204(a)) may not be considered for award.

Part II – Technical Documentation Evaluation Next, the lowest evaluated priced quoter will be evaluated on an Acceptable/Unacceptable basis for the Technical Requirement. For the lowest evaluated priced quoter to receive a rating of “Acceptable”, the quoter shall submit technical documentation (both Staffing Plan and Prior Experience Citation) that confirms that their company meets the minimum requirements as stated in this combined synopsis/solicitation in accordance with the evaluation factors identified below.

If the lowest evaluated priced quote receives an “acceptable” technical rating, that quote represents the most advantageous offer to the Government, evaluation of that quote is complete, and the evaluation process will stop, resulting in an award.

If the lowest evaluated price quote receives an “unacceptable” technical rating, evaluation of that quote will stop. In that instance, the next lowest evaluated priced quoter will be evaluated using the methodology above and the process will continue (in order by price) until a quote receives an “acceptable” technical rating, or until all quotes are evaluated.

The evaluation factors are:

Factor 1 – Staffing Plan

1. The vendor must submit its Staffing Approach to support the services listed and workload data in the PWS. The staffing plan must reflect a clear understanding of the skills, certifications, and experience needed to execute the specific tasks defined in the PWS for each functional area of the PWS. The staffing plan at minimum must identify the following: the labor category proposed for each job function along with a brief description, Number of Full Time Employees (FTEs), and Certifications Held. This plan should provide the existing certifications from personnel expected to be performing these services. This plan must also address how the offeror intends to recruit and retain employees should there be vacancies during contract performance. The staffing plan submission should be a narrative (not to exceed 5 pages) to provide the rationale and methodology used to determine number of personnel proposed.

Factor 2 – Prior experience citation

2. Provide a prior experience citation using Attachment 6 that shows a previous effort of a similar type of maintenance and support to include Alarms and/or Camera support (AMAG/QVMS or other similar systems) to include response capability on a 24/7 basis. This citation shall be within the past 10 years and can be a Government or Commercial Customer.

• Please provide a Government contract number and/or commercial POC that can validate the prior experience citation(s).

• Note: This request is just for a citation, the Government is NOT requesting Past Performance Questionnaires to be submitted.

The technical factors will receive one of the following ratings listed below.
