Instructions to Offerors

Combined Synopsis/Solicitation

To receive this award, your company must be found to have both "adequate financial resources" and "necessary production, construction, and technical equipment and facilities" to perform the contract (and/or the ability to obtain them).

Based on an assessment of this requirement, the Government has assigned this solicitation a general level of risk indicated below, which lists examples of documents/information that you can provide to support a positive determination of responsibility.

[X] Level One: Self-Attestation (e.g. a Statement on your proposal/quote asserting that your company has the financial and technical resources necessary to perform OR a separate letter stating the same) [ ] Level Two: Financial Details (e.g. balance sheets, income statements, cash flow statements OR other financial documents showing company financial health/capability) [ ] Level Three: Third Party Verification (e.g. a Form 10-K/10-Q OR other third-party audits/guarantees attesting to your company's financial health/capability)

FAR Provision 52.212-2, Evaluation -- Commercial Items, applies to this acquisition. As prescribed in FAR 12.301(c), the following addendum is provided for this solicitation and hereby amends any language therein.

Basis for Contract Award:

The Government intends to award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible vendor whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, considering the factors listed in this provision.

1. In accordance with FAR 13.106-2(b)(3), the Government will utilize comparative evaluations, and give preliminary consideration, to all offers received in response to this solicitation. The Government will identify from all evaluated quotes, readily discernible value indicators that fall within the parameters of price, and technical capability

2. The Government intends to award a contract to the lowest priced offer that meets the instructions outlined in 52.212-1, and the minimum requirements outlined in this provision, whose price can be determined "fair and reasonable".

3. The Government intends to make an award without conducting exchanges with vendors after the close of the solicitation.

Therefore, vendors should provide their best available pricing and to the Government in their initial quote. However, the Government reserves the right to enter into exchanges with all, some, or none of the offers at any time during the evaluation period if deemed in the best interests of the Government to do so.

Evaluation Factors:

The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotes:

1. Price

2. Technical Acceptability The evaluation method for this requirement will be lowest price deemed technically acceptable.

A written notice of award mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful vendor within the time for acceptance outlined in 52.212-1 shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the quotes specified expiration time, the Government may accept a quote (or part of a quote), whether there are exchanges after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award. During the evaluation process the Contracting Officer will determine a "Total Evaluated Price" (TEP) for each responsive quote. The TEP is determined by totaling the amount of all line items identified in the price scheduled/PDF Document.
