Technical Acceptability, at a minimum, is defined as meeting all of the criteria in specifications on the list of requirements. Price and technical acceptability will be considered. The Government intends to evaluate offers and award without discussion, but reserves the right to conduct discussions. Therefore, the offeror’s initial offer should contain the offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. Offers that fail to furnish required representations or information, or reject the terms and conditions of the solicitation may be excluded from consideration.

4. Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) Number.

(ix) FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation -- Commercial Items (Jan 1999) is hereby incorporated by reference, with the same force and effect as if it were given in full text. The following have been tailored to this procurement and are hereby added via addenda:

(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) technical acceptability of the item offered to meet the Government requirement;

(ii) price

If found technically unacceptable, the government will evaluate the next lowest offer for technical acceptability until award can be made to the lowest priced technically acceptable offeror.

http://fedgov.dnb.com/webform https://www.acquisition.gov/

"Price Evaluation: The price equivalent to the six (6) months extension of services authorized by 52.217-8 will be evaluated and factored as part of the total evaluated price (TEP) for award. The Government will calculate proposed prices for a quantity equivalent to six months by prorating proposed prices offered for each Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) including Option’s under FAR 52.217-9, using the following formula:

Base Year Total amount = CLIN Extended Amount x 0.5* Option Year 1 = CLIN Extended Amount x 0.5* Option Year 2 = CLIN Extended Amount x 0.5* Note* 0.5 is the multiplicative factor used to derive the six months quantity value."

This will be a lowest price technically acceptable purchase. Technical acceptability – at a minimum – will consist of meeting all characteristics, including those listed in Attachment 2, Section 2 – Statement of Work

(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.

(x) Each offeror shall include a completed copy of the provision at FAR 52.212-3, Alternate I, Offeror Representations and Certifications--Commercial Items (May 2014), or ensure the Representations and Certifications are updated at www.sam.gov.
