(b) For item(s) identified in paragraph (a) of this clause, the Contractor agrees to perform up to the point at which the total amount payable by the Government, including reimbursement in the event of termination of those item(s) for the Government’s convenience, approximates the total amount currently allotted to the contract. The Contractor is not authorized to continue work on those item(s) beyond that point. The Government will not be obligated in any event to reimburse the Contractor in excess of the amount allotted to the contract for those item(s) regardless of anything to the contrary in the clause entitled “Termination for Convenience of the Government.” As used in this clause, the total amount payable by the Government in the event of termination of applicable contract line item(s) for convenience includes costs, profit, and estimated termination settlement costs for those item(s).

(c) Notwithstanding the dates specified in the allotment schedule in paragraph (j) of this clause, the Contractor will notify the Contracting Officer in writing at least ninety days prior to the date when, in the Contractor’s best judgment, the work will reach the point at which the total amount payable by the Government, including any cost for termination for convenience, will approximate 85 percent of the total amount then allotted to the contract for performance of the applicable item(s). The notification will state

(1) the estimated date when that point will be reached and (2) an estimate of additional funding, if any, needed to continue performance of applicable line items up to the next scheduled date for allotment of funds identified in paragraph (j) of this clause, or to a mutually agreed upon substitute date. The notification will also advise the Contracting Officer of the estimated amount of additional funds that will be required for the timely performance of the item(s) funded pursuant to this clause, for a subsequent period as may be specified in the allotment schedule in paragraph (j) of this clause or otherwise agreed to by the parties. If after such notification additional funds are not allotted by the date identified in the Contractor’s notification, or by an agreed substitute date, the Contracting Officer will terminate any item(s) for which additional funds have not been allotted, pursuant to the clause of this contract entitled “Termination for Convenience of the Government.”

(d) When additional funds are allotted for continued performance of the contract line item(s) identified in paragraph (a) of this clause, the parties will agree as to the period of contract performance which will be covered by the funds. The provisions of paragraphs (b) through (d) of this clause will apply in like manner to the additional allotted funds and agreed substitute date, and the contract will be modified accordingly.

(e) If, solely by reason of failure of the Government to allot additional funds, by the dates indicated below, in amounts sufficient for timely performance of the contract line item(s) identified in paragraph (a) of this clause, the Contractor incurs additional costs or is delayed in the performance of the work under this contract and if additional funds are allotted, an equitable adjustment will be made in the price or prices (including appropriate target, billing, and ceiling prices where applicable) of the item(s), or in the time of delivery, or both. Failure to agree to any such equitable adjustment hereunder will be a dispute concerning a question of fact within the meaning of the clause entitled “Disputes.”

(f) The Government may at any time prior to termination allot additional funds for the performance of the contract line item(s) identified in paragraph (a) of this clause.

(g) The termination provisions of this clause do not limit the rights of the Government under the clause entitled “Default.” The provisions of this clause are limited to the work and allotment of funds for the contract line item(s) set forth in paragraph (a) of this clause. This clause no longer applies once the contract is fully funded except with regard to the rights or obligations of the parties concerning equitable adjustments negotiated under paragraphs (d) and (e) of this clause.

FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation – Commercial Items (Oct 2014).

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose quote conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors will be used to evaluate quotes:

(1) Price

(2) Past Performance

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

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

Addendum to FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation - Commercial Items

The following is inserted as new paragraph (d) of the provision:

(d) Basis for Contract Award: This is a competitive lowest price technically acceptable award conducted in accordance with (IAW) Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Parts 12 and 13. By submission of its quote IAW the instructions provided in clause FAR 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors – Commercial Items, the offeror accedes to all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions and representations and certification. Failure to meet a requirement may result in a quote being determined non-responsive and unacceptable. Award will be made to the lowest Total Evaluated Price (TEP) quote that is technically acceptable with acceptable past performance. The evaluation process will include the following:

(1) Price: The Government will rank all quotes by TEP for Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) 0001 including all option prices X001. The price evaluation will document the fairness and reasonableness of the TEP. The Government reserves the right to perform price realism analysis. If the Government elects to perform a price realism analysis, the Government reserves discretion over the method within which it performs its price realism analysis. If the Government elects to perform a price realism analysis and finds a proposal unrealistic, the Government may withhold award to that offeror.

Total Evaluated Price. A TEP will be computed for each quote in order to meet the requirements of FAR Parts 6 and 17. The price of a six-month extension authorized by FAR 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, will be added to the proposed price for each potential contract performance period.

The TEP is a two-part computation. First, the offeror’s total quoted price will be determined by multiplying the quantities identified in the Pricing Schedule by the unit price, limited to two decimal places, for each CLIN to confirm the extended total amount for each CLIN; the sum of all extended amounts will be the offeror’s total quoted price. Second, the total quoted price (total amount for CLINs X001) plus the sum of FAR 52.217-8 formula (shown below) will constitute the TEP.

The formula for the Option to Extend Services amount is as follows:

Base Year = CLIN Extended Amount x 0.5* Option Year 1 = CLIN Extended Amount x 0.5* Option Year 2 = CLIN Extended Amount x 0.5*

Option Year 3 = CLIN Extended Amount x 0.5* Option Year 4 = CLIN Extended Amount x 0.5*

Note: *0.5 is the multiplicative factor used to derive the 6 months quantity value.

Evaluating the Option CLINs does not obligate the Government to exercise the Options.

(2) Past Performance: The Government will evaluate past performance information (PPI) submitted from the lowest priced offeror under this acquisition. If the lowest priced offeror is determined to be Acceptable based on the below evaluation process, no other offerors need to be evaluated for past performance. In the event that the lowest offeror is determined to be Unacceptable, the offeror will be eliminated from consideration for award and the Government will then evaluate the next low offeror’s PPI. This process will continue until a offeror is found to have acceptable past performance.

Past performance evaluation considers each offeror’s demonstrated recent and relevant record of performance in supplying products and services that meet the solicitation requirements as well as the quality assessment, based on contacting customers. In conducting the Past Performance evaluation, the Government reserves the right to use both the information provided in the offeror’s Past Performance quote and any information obtained from other sources available to the Government.

The Past Performance evaluation results in an assessment of the offeror’s probability of meeting the solicitation requirements. Offerors must receive a past performance rating of Acceptable to be eligible for award.

Recency Assessment. An assessment of the PPI will be made to determine if it is recent. To be recent, the effort must be ongoing or must have been performed during the past 3 years from the date of issuance of this solicitation. PPI that fails this condition will not be evaluated.

Relevancy Assessment. The Government will conduct an evaluation of all recent PPI obtained to determine whether the products provided/services performed under those contracts relate to the products/services identified within the PWS. A relevancy determination of the offeror’s PPI will be made based upon the aforementioned considerations. In determining the relevancy of effort performed under individual past performance contracts, the Government will only consider the specific effort or portion consistent with that proposed by the prime. PPI forms and information obtained from other sources will be used to establish the relevancy of past performance. The Government will assess relevancy for each recent PPI using the following definitions in the below table.

TABLE 1: PAST PERFORMANCE RELEVANCY RATINGS

Rating Definition

Relevant Present/past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Not Relevant Present/past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Performance Quality Assessment. For each of the recent and relevant past performance information reviewed, the performance quality of work will be assessed based on the (i) Quality Assessment Criteria evaluated through using the comments from the contacted customers and (ii) the evaluation ratings in the Federal Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), if available. The Government will assess the quality of each recent and relevant PPI using the following quality descriptions in the below table.

Evaluation Ratings. As a result of the relevancy and performance quality assessments of the recent PPI evaluated, the Government will assess an integrated past performance evaluation rating as described in the table below.

TABLE 3: PAST PERFORMANCE EVALUATION RATINGS

Rating Definition

Acceptable Based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror’s performance record is unknown. (See note below.)

Unacceptable Based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government has no reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

Note: In the case of an offeror whose PPI 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 on past performance.

Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/ unacceptability, Unknown shall be considered Acceptable. More recent performance will have a greater impact on the Past Performance rating than less recent effort.

Offerors are cautioned to submit sufficient information and in the format specified in FAR 52.212-1 of this solicitation. The Government intends to award a contract without further interchanges with offerors. Consequently, offerors are highly encouraged to quote their best quote in their initial submissions. However, the Government reserves the right to have interchanges with any or all offerors, if it is determined advantageous for the Government to do so.
