You may submit more than one quote and are encouraged to do so if an alternative satisfying the requirements of the solicitation exists and may be of interest to the Government.

Terms and content of your quote. Your quote must be based on the terms of this RFQ. We may reject any quote that does not meet these terms in every respect.

Determination of contractor responsibility. Before issuance of a purchase order, the Contracting Officer will determine the prospective contractor is responsible and has the capacity to satisfy the Government requirement. To this end, the Contracting Officer may request additional documentation or information from any or all prospective contractors, to include: references to current or former customers who will attest to the quality of your product or service, evidence of the contractor's ability to comply with the delivery or performance schedule, information regarding the contractor's organization, experience, accounting and operational controls, technical skills, technical literature, and facilities, or any other documentation and information that might be necessary to determine the contractor's capacity for work.

Include recent and relevant contracts for the same or similar items and other references including contract numbers, points of contact with telephone numbers and other relevant information.

Issuance of purchase order. The Government intends to evaluate quotations and issue a purchase order based on the initial quotations received. Therefore, the offeror’s initial quotation should contain the offeror’s best terms. The Contracting Officer may reject any or all quotes. After the evaluation of initial quotes received, the Contracting Officer may negotiate final terms with one or more offerors of the Government's choice before issuing a purchase order. The Contracting Officer will not negotiate with any offerors other than those of the Government's choice and will not use the formal source selection procedures described in FAR Part 15. The Contracting Officer will issue a purchase order to the vendor in accordance with the evaluation criteria cited in 52.212-2 below.

52.212-2, Evaluation -- Commercial Products and Commercial Services (Nov 2021) Addendum

The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeree 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:

Technical capabilities: this factor evaluates how well the product or service literature provided will meet the needs of the government. The submitted Technical Literature shall explicitly demonstrates the company capabilities to provide the product or service. A quote that exceeds the government’s minimum requirement may be considered for award and a best value determination will be made.

Past Performance: This factor evaluates recent and relevant contracts for the same or similar items as well as a contractor’s performance according to data in the Supply Performance Risk System (SPRS). The Contracting Officer may also use the following to evaluate past performance:

1. The contracting officer’s knowledge of and previous experience with the supply or service being acquired

2. Customer surveys, and past performance questionnaire replies

3. The Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS)

4. Any other reasonable basis.

Price

The reasonableness of the quotation will be determined on the total evaluated price (TEP). Quoters should give their most competitive price. Additionally, as this requirement is commercial and will result in a "firm-fixed-price" a comparison of quoters' total price will satisfy the requirement for price analysis, in determining the price fair and reasonable. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the prices are significantly unbalanced.

IAW FAR 13.106-1(a)(2) we will not be stating the relative importance of each factor.
