Submitters bear the burden of ensuring that the quote reached the designated contracting office on time and should allow reasonable time for transmission to be completed. Large e-mail files may not transmit properly so it is advised to send large attachments in several separate e-mails. All pages of the transmission and attachments must reach the office before the deadline specified. Any part of the quote that arrives after the specified deadline will not be considered. The submitter bears the risk of non-receipt of quotes and should confirm by telephone that the quote was received.

The POC for other than normal business hours will be contacted only in the event of emergencies. Accordingly, the named individual(s) should possess sufficient corporate authority to effectively deal with emergency situations and the telephone number provided should be functioning at all times other than normal business hours. If there are different POCs for different conditions, such as weekdays, weekends, holidays, etc., please furnish and explain:
(1) Quoter’s normal business hours/days:
(2) POC(s) during normal business hours:
(3) POC(s) for other than normal business hours:

c. Given that FAR 52.217-8 provides that the Government may exercise the Option to Extend Services at the rates specified in the contract (i.e., the rates in effect when the Extension of Services option is exercised), for purposes of evaluating the Option to Extend Services, the Contracting Officer will consider the prices submitted for the base year and each option year, since those are the binding prices should the Option to Extend be exercised.
(m) Protests received at a level higher than the contracting officer will be referred to the contracting officer.
Protestor may request a review by the contracting officer or an independent review at a level higher than the contracting officer. Requests for appeals or independent review will be addressed to the contracting officer for referral to the review authority.

52.212-2 Evaluation - Commercial Items OCT 2014
ADDENDUM TO 52.212-2
Commercial Item Evaluation Factors for Award
(a) The Government intends to issue one (1) fixed price order to the responsible supplier of goods and/or services whose quotation conforming to the solicitation has the lowest evaluated price. Award to be made in accordance with FAR 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures.
Except communications conducted for the purpose of minor clarifications, the Government intends to evaluate quotes and issue a purchase order without discussions. Therefore, each initial quote should contain the quoter’s best terms from a technical and pricing standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if it is later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary.
EVALUATION FACTORS. The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotations:
Factor 1. - PRICE
PRICE (FACTOR 1) is not rated. Price and/or cost analysis will be used to evaluate a quoter’s price to the extent to which it is fair and reasonable.
Award will be made to the quoter possessing all of the following characteristics:
1) Meets the acceptability standards for non-price factors,
2) Conforms to the solicitation,
3) Is from a prospective contractor who is responsible (as defined in Federal Acquisition Regulation FAR
Part 9), and
4) Has a price that is determined to be fair and reasonable.
(b) Options. The Government will evaluate quotations for order-issuing purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that a quotation is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).
The Government will make the award based on a Total Evaluated Price (TEP).
The contract will include FAR Clause 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, with the potential to extend the contract an additional 6 months beyond the awarded contract performance period. In the event the Government requires continued performance, the Government's evaluation of prices proposed for the base and all option periods will suffice to be the Government's evaluation of prices under the extension of services (ref. 52.217-8). The price for the six-month extension will be calculated using the unit prices of the last option period. Evaluation of the option period will not obligate the Government to exercise the option.
The total of the annual extended prices for each CLIN and the price for the six-month extension authorized by 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services will be added together to arrive at the TEP.
(c) If the Government issues an order to a supplier, a binding contract will result when the supplier accepts the Government’s offer. The supplier shall indicate acceptance of the order by written notice to the Government. The Government may, by written notice to the supplier, at any time before acceptance occurs, withdraw, amend, or cancel its offer.
