FAR 52.212-1 Instructions to Offerors—Commercial Products and Commercial Services FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation—Commercial Products and Commercial Services.

(a) The Government will award a contract 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:

Evaluations will be based on the lowest aggregate total price quote that is technically acceptable. A delivery order may be awarded to the offeror who is deemed responsible IAW FAR Subpart 9.1, as supplemented, whose quote conforms to the solicitation requirements and is judged to represent a technically acceptable quote with the lowest complete and reasonable price. First, the Government will rank the quotes which conform to the requirements from lowest price to highest price. Next, the Government will evaluate the lowest priced offeror for technical acceptability as follows:

Technically Acceptable – quote meets all the requirements of the Request for Quote (RFQ) and its attachments.

Technically Unacceptable - quote does not meet all the requirements of this RFQ and its attachments

(b) Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

(c) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer’s specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
