ADDENDUM TO RFO 52.212-2, EVALUATION OF OFFERS

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. Interchanges may be held with all, some or none of the vendors. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

Factor 1: Total Evaluated Price Price analysis will be performed to determine the reasonableness of the Offer's price quote. Reasonableness will be based on the total evaluated price. The total evaluated price will be calculated as the sum of the Estimated Total Price for all the Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs).

The proposed prices will be evaluated for reasonableness. Analysis of the cost/price quote will be performed using one or more of the techniques defined in RFO 12.204(a) in order to determine price reasonableness. Reasonableness must represent a price to the Government a prudent person would pay in the conduct of competitive business. Normally, price reasonableness is established through adequate price competition but may also be determined through cost and price analysis techniques.

Factor 2: Technical Acceptability The technical offers will be evaluated IAW Salient Characteristics.

The government’s technical evaluation team will evaluate the technical portion on a pass/fail basis, assigning ratings of Acceptable or Unacceptable IAW the table below.

Technical Acceptability Ratings

Evaluation steps: Price Factor and Technical Acceptability: Step 1: Evaluate all quotations for responsiveness. Step 2: Rank all responsive quotations based upon vendor’s Total Evaluated Price (TEP). Step 3: Make a Best-Value decision based on performance evaluation and a determination that the price is fair and reasonable.

b) 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 there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
