52.212-2 , Evaluation -- Commercial Items.

Evaluation -- Commercial Items (Oct 2014)

(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:

i. Price

Addendum to FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation – Commercial Items (Oct 2014)

(a) The Government will award one contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer who submits a proposal that (1) conforms to the requirements clins and IAW PWS of this combined synopsis/solicitation; (2) that submits the proposal with the lowest Total Evaluated Price (TEP), provided that the TEP is not unbalanced and is determined to be fair and reasonable.

The Government reserves the right to award no contract at all depending upon (1) the quality of proposals received and (2) whether proposed prices are determined to be fair and reasonable. The Government may award without discussions; however, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if deemed in the Government’s best interest.

(b) Price: Price proposals will be evaluated for (1) completeness, (2) unbalanced pricing, (3) fair and reasonableness, and (4) Total Evaluated Price (TEP).

(1) Completeness: The Government will review the pricing submissions for completeness and compliance with solicitation’s Additional Instruction to Offerors (Attachment 1).

(2) Unbalanced Pricing: The Government will analyze each proposal to determine whether they are unbalanced with respect to prices proposed on different Contract Line Items Numbers (CLIN) for the same or similar services and/or supplies in the same or similar quantities and with respect to option pricing. An offer may be rejected if the Contracting Officer (CO) determines that the option prices are significantly unbalanced or that otherwise unbalanced pricing poses an unacceptable risk to the Government.

(3) Fair and Reasonableness: The offeror’s Price proposal will be evaluated using price analysis in accordance with FAR 13.106-3(a) or DFARS 215.371-3 if only one offer is received.

(4) Total Evaluated Price (TEP): The Government will add the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement to arrive at a total evaluated price (TEP).

All elements of the price proposal required in FAR Provision 52.212-1 will be evaluated The TEP will be calculated as:

(i) The sum of the extended prices (unit quantity multiplied by unit price) for CLINs 0001 through 4004 for the base performance period and option periods I through IV; and

(ii) To account for the maximum six-month extension possible under the clause at FAR 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, the Government will take the proposed price of the final option period (CLINS 4004), prorate it to a six-month value, and add that amount to the sum of all CLINS (base performance period and option periods I through IV). The resulting amount will be the TEP. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

The spreadsheet below illustrates calculation of a proposal’s TEP using the methodology described above. The spreadsheet is provided for illustration purposes only. Prices reflected in the spreadsheet are notional and in no way reflect the actual value of the requirement or an actual evaluation of proposed prices submitted in response to this solicitation or any other solicitation for the same or similar requirements.
