Content of Quote: Submitted quotes must include a technical description of the items being offered in sufficient detail to evaluate compliance with the requirements in the solicitation. This may include product literature, or other documents, if necessary. A general statement of compliance or restatement of the requirement specifications is insufficient. Vendor is responsible for ensuring the quote provided addresses each specification listed in this solicitation. Descriptive literature information such as illustrations, drawings, or a clear reference, such as website information must be made readily available to the Contracting Officer. The Contracting Officer is NOT responsible for locating or obtaining any information not identified in the quote and literature. The Government intends to make an award without discussion; to this end, if a quote does not clearly demonstrate technical compliance and/or does not comply with every requirement contained within this solicitation, the quote will not be considered for award.

Text6: Attachment 1: Provisions and Clauses Attachment 2: Performance Work Statement

The Government reserves the right to cancel this solicitation, either before or after the closing date. In the event the Government cancels this solicitation, the Government has no obligation to reimburse an offeror for any costs.

If a contract is awarded resulting from this solicitation to a responsible offeror, the offer shall conform to all the solicitation requirements and the offer shall represent the best value to the Government.

NOTE: FAR Part 2.101 defines Best Value as "the expected outcome of an acquisition that, in the Government's estimation, provides the greatest overall benefit in response to the requirement." The government best value determination may use one, all four, or any combination of the following factors to evaluate offers, in no particular order of importance:

- TECHNICAL CAPABILITY TO MEET THE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENT

- PRICE

- PAST PERFORMANCE

1) Price: At a minimum the CLINs structure outlined in the solicitation shall be completed. The proposed price shall be submitted in U.S. Dollars. The Unit Price must be rounded to the second decimal.

2) Technical Compliance. Quotes will be evaluated based upon how well they adhere to this solicitation's specifications via submitted technical documentation and will be rated on an Acceptable/Not Acceptable basis. If no technical documentation is provided the proposal will be deemed unacceptable and/or unresponsive.

3) Past Performance. This factor evaluates the past performance of each individual responder. Each responder should provide the list of contracts with successful performance of similar services dated within the past five (5) years.

******************************************************************************************************- TECHNICAL RATINGS - Acceptable: Quote clearly meets the minimum requirements of solicitation Not Acceptable: Quote does NOT clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation ****************************************************************************************************** Only quotes deemed “Responsive” shall be evaluated. All responsive quotes received will be first evaluated by Technical Acceptability and then for Price. The technical evaluation team will evaluate quotes on an Acceptable/Not Acceptable basis. After evaluation, the lowest priced technically acceptable quote will be selected for award. The Contracting Officer further reserves the right to conduct price realism to determine whether quotes are so low/high they reflect a lack of technical understanding by the quoter. If deemed necessary, the Contracting Officer shall reject any quote that is deemed unrealistically low/high. The Government intends to evaluate quotes and award a contract without discussions with vendors. Vendors should not expect requests for clarification or additional information from the Government. Award will be based on the initial evaluation of quotes received in response to the solicitation. Therefore, quoters are cautioned that their initial quotes should contain their best terms from a technical and price standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions with vendors if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all quotes if such action is in the public interest; and may waive informalities and minor irregularities in quotes received.
