52.212-2 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:
1. Price
2. Technical Acceptability
The technical aspect, when compared to price, is approximately equal to price.
(b) Basis for Award. The Government evaluation objective is to award the Offeror who provides the best overall product solutions. The Government may make a price/overall quality tradeoff based on comparative evaluation of Offerors. As such, Offerors are encouraged to submit multiple offers.
(c) Technical Evaluation Process
1. The objective of the evaluation process of this factor is to determine compatibility of proposed products to the technical requirements of this solicitation, the comparative quality level of products, the architectural/aesthetic compatibility degree with current on stock furniture, suitability of proposed products, and features for the intended use and durability. Professional judgment of evaluators is implicit in this process especially in determining the degree of architectural/aesthetic compatibility, and quality levels.
2. The Government shall evaluate the offers submitted by;
a. Verifying that all required documentation listed in the Addenda to 52.212-1, Instructions to
Offerors and technical information has been submitted by each Offeror. Incomplete offers will receive no further consideration for award. If multiple offers are submitted each offer will be evaluated on its own merit.
b. Overall Quality Rating: Examining the samples of furniture elements, list of standards of each product as well as characteristics of features/accessories and option items to ensure that the quality levels of the technical specifications are met or exceeded. Failure of a single product to satisfy the respective quality level will result in the entire offer not receiving any further consideration for award regardless of the quality level of the other products offered on that offer.
c. Architectural/Aesthetic Compatibility: Color boards, pictures (drawings are not accepted), and designs of quoted products will be compared with current furniture inventory (Refer sample pictures in the Table) to determine compatibility of proposed furniture.
(Note: Use of the sample pictures provided by the Government in your offer is strictly prohibited.)
Upon completion of this initial evaluation step, one of the following ratings shall be assigned to each offer. Only offers rated “Acceptable” shall receive further consideration for contract award.
Acceptable Offeror has provided all documentation/data/samples, technical documentation to demonstrate compliance with stated technical specifications and suitability for intended use.
Unacceptable Offeror has failed to submit requested documentation/data/samples, technical documentation to demonstrate compliance with stated technical specification and suitability for intended use.
OR
Technical evaluation has revealed that product(s) submitted fail to meet technical specifications requirements and/or unsuitable for intended use.
Overall Quality Rating: All “acceptable” technical offers will be assigned an overall quality rating by examining catalog contents, furniture samples (e.g., fabric or material swatches, etc.), list of standards of each product as well as, characteristics of features/accessories, and option items. Offers will be ranked based on the Government’s subjective evaluation on a scale basis of 1 to 3 for each of the below elements:
Scale Value Quality Durability Architectural/Aesthetic Compatibility
1 High High Outstanding
2 Good Good Excellent
3 Standard Standard Satisfactory
The scale value of each element for each offer will then be added and the ranking order of each “Acceptable” offer established. The lower the sum represents the better the overall technical offer ranking with respect to other offers received.
(d) Price: The Government reserves the right to award a contract to other than the lowest priced offer if making a tradeoff for a higher overall quality rated and technically acceptable offer is determined to be in the best interest of the Government.
(e) The Government intends to award this contract without discussion with respective offerors. The Government, however, reserves the right to conduct discussions if deemed necessary. The Government reserves the right to conduct comparative evaluations of offerors.
