VIII. FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation--Commercial Items applies to this acquisition.

a. The Government will award a firm-fixed-price purchase order to the responsible offeror whose offer conforms to the solicitation and all attachments, and will be the most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

i. Price

ii. Technical capability

Time

The baseline will be the requested delivery timeframe of 8 weeks ARO. One (1) week (7 days) sooner will result in a 10% reduction of the quoted price to determine the total evaluated price (TEP).

One (1) week later will result in a 10% increase of the quoted price.

b. BASIS FOR AWARD / EVALUATION PROCEDURES:

i. The Government will evaluate quotes using price and the other evaluation factors as described above. Award will then be made to the lowest total evaluated priced (TEP), acceptable offeror. If only one “acceptable” offer is received, the Government will attempt to determine price to be fair and reasonable through other means than competition.

ii. An example of the TEP is as follows:

1. Vendor A submits a quote that provides the requested item and 8 weeks delivery at $100,000.00. The TEP for Vendor A would be

$100,000.00.

2. Vendor B submits a quote that provides the requested item and 7 weeks delivery, also at $100,000.00. The TEP for Vendor B would be

$90,000.00 (10% reduction for lead time).

3. The award would be made to Vendor B at $100,000.00 (quoted price) due to their TEP being lower than Vendor A.

iii. Award will be made on the evaluation of quotes received in response to this

RFQ. Quotes received after the RFQ close date and time will not be evaluated or considered. Therefore, offerors are cautioned to ensure timely submittal and that the quote meets all requirements detailed by the documents provided in the RFQ. If award is not in the best interest of the government, the government reserves the right to determine the quote ineligible for award.

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. A written notice to unsuccessful offerors will only be provided upon request.

IX. All firms must be registered and active in the System for Award Management (SAM) database at https://www.sam.gov/SAM/ to be considered for award. Quote must be directly submitted by the firm registered in SAM that is intended to be the successful awardee.
