ADDENDUM - 52.212-2

52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (JAN 1999)

The procedures found in FAR Subpart 13.5 – “Test Program for Certain Commercial Items” will be utilized for the solicitation, evaluation, and award of any subsequent contract.

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offerors whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government using the procedures in FAR Part 13.106-2 – “Evaluation of Quotations or Offers” will be used to evaluate the following factors:

(i) Past Performance

(ii) Price

Past Performance. Offerors must receive an Acceptable rating to receive an award. This rating is based upon the past performance questionnaires received, or information obtained from any other sources of past performance information. The past performance rating criteria below will be used to evaluate proposals:

Note: In the case of a offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably. The offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “Unknown” shall be considered “Acceptable.”

Merit of Measure: The standard for a satisfactory past performance rating is met when the information submitted by the offeror and/or the information found by the government is evaluated as indicating successful performance history. Exceptional, Good, and Satisfactory performance as indicated on the PPQ will receive an Acceptable rating.

Price. The Government will evaluate proposals for award purposes by adding the total price for all CLINs (line items). Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

Arithmetic Discrepancies. The following will be utilized in resolving arithmetic discrepancies found on the CLIN pricing as submitted by the offeror.

(i) Obvious misplaced decimal points will be corrected;

(ii) Any discrepancy between the unit price and extended price, the unit price will govern;

(iii) Apparent errors in extension of unit prices will be corrected;

(b) For the purpose of offeror evaluation, the Government will proceed on the assumption that the offeror intends their offer to be evaluated on the basis of the unit price. The totals arrived at by resolution of arithmetic discrepancies listed above will be so reflected on the abstract of offers.

(c) 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 reserves the right to make a determination 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).

(d) 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.
