(f) Late submissions, modifications, revisions, and withdrawals of quotations. We must receive your quotation at the address specified on page 1 by the deadline specified on page 1.

In case of an emergency that delays our operations and makes submission or receipt of your quotation impossible, we will extend the deadline by one working day.

Therefore, the vendor’s initial quotation should contain the vendor’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct interchanges with one, some, or all vendors if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may waive informalities and minor irregularities in quotations received. The Government reserves the right to reject any or all quotations, if such action is in the public interest.

52.212‐2 ‐‐ Evaluation – Commercial Items

Addendum to FAR 52.212-2 -- Evaluation – Commercial Items

1.0 Basis for Contract Award:

This acquisition will be conducted under the procedures of FAR Part 12 -- Commercial Items and FAR Part 13 -- Simplified Acquisition Procedures. In accordance with FAR 12.203(c)(2), the procedures prescribed in FAR Part 15 are not mandatory, and therefore, the evaluation procedures established herein are within the Contracting Officer’s broad discretion as applied under FAR Part 12. This acquisition will utilize technical acceptability and price as evaluation factors. Award will be made to the vendor who is technically acceptable with the lowest total evaluated price (TEP) and whose quotation conforms to the solicitation requirements (to include all stated terms, conditions, representations, and certifications). The Government intends to award without interchanges. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct interchanges if determined necessary by the Contracting Officer (ref. FAR 52.212-2 Addendum, section 1.3).

1.1 Solicitation Requirements (Terms and Conditions)

Vendors are required to meet all solicitation requirements, such as terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and Statement of Work (SOW) requirements, in addition to the technical and price factors. Failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the solicitation may result in the vendor being ineligible for award. Vendors must clearly identify any exception to the solicitation terms and conditions and must provide complete supporting rationale. The Government reserves the right to determine any such exceptions unacceptable, and the quotation, therefore, ineligible for award.

1.2 Number of Contracts to be Awarded:

The Government intends to select one contractor for this acquisition. However, the Government reserves the right not to award a contract at all, depending on the quality of the quotation, prices submitted, and the availability of funds.

1.3 Interchanges

In accordance with FAR 1.102-2(c)(3) the Government shall exercise discretion, use sound business judgement, and comply with applicable laws and regulations during the course of this acquisition. The Government intends to award without interchanges, but reserves the right to conduct interchanges if necessary. Therefore, it is imperative that vendors submit their best terms initially. If during the evaluation of quotations, it is determined to be in the best interest of the Government to conduct interchanges, the Contracting Officer may conduct interchanges with one, some, or all vendors before issuing any purchase order.

Interchanges are information sharing between the Government and vendors after receipt of quotations which can be conducted to address any aspect of the quotation. Interchanges may be oral or written. Written interchanges take the form of Interchange Notices (IN)s. INs are used to accurately capture contemporaneous sharing of information. If interchanges are conducted, the Government may request final quotation revisions at the conclusion of interchanges.

2.0 Evaluation Factors Used to Evaluate Each Quotation:

Award will be made to the vendor quoting the combination of factors deemed most advantageous to the Government based upon an integrated assessment of the evaluation factors described below.

Factor 1: Technical

Factor 2: Price

2.1 Factor 1 – Technical

The Technical evaluation will be based on each’s vendor’s approach for meeting the technical requirements in the Statement of Work (SOW). The evaluation focuses on the technical approach as described in each quotation. The technical evaluation does not consider price. Each quotation will be evaluated for technical acceptability, based on the criteria listed in paragraph 3 of the Statement of Work. To be determined technically acceptable at the factor level, the vendor must meet all the criteria in the SOW. Failure to meet any criteria will result in an unacceptable technical rating. The technical evaluation will also consider risk in determining overall acceptability. Risk pertains to the potential for unsuccessful contract performance. Risk will not receive a separate rating, rather, it will be inherent within the overall Technical rating. The technical ratings are defined as follows:

Rating Description Acceptable Proposal meets the requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Proposal does not meet the requirements of the solicitation.

The minimum technical evaluation requirement is met when the vendor’s quotation thoroughly substantiates all the following essential criteria will be met:

Technical Criteria:

See Statement of Work for specifications.

2.2. Factor 2 – Price

Price quotations will be evaluated as follows:

2.2.1 Completeness

Quotations will be reviewed for completeness. Incomplete quotes will be considered ineligible for award.

2.2.2 Price Reasonableness

The proposed prices will be evaluated for reasonableness. Reasonableness must represent a price to the Government a prudent person would pay in the conduct of competitive business. Normally, price reasonableness is established through adequate price competition but may also be determined through price analysis techniques as described in FAR 12.204

2.2.3 Price Realism

The Government intends to determine price realism based on adequate price competition. In the event the Government cannot determine price realism based on adequate price competition, the Government reserves the right to conduct a more detailed price realism evaluation using one or more of the price analysis techniques described in FAR 12.204. The Government may also use other evaluation techniques, as needed. To be realistic, the proposed price must demonstrate an adequate understanding of the requirement. Quoted prices that are determined to be unrealistically low due to an inadequate understanding of the requirement will make the quotation ineligible for award.

2.2.4 Unbalanced Pricing

Vendors’ quotations will be reviewed for unbalanced pricing. The Government will evaluate any supporting information provided by the vendor explaining variances that appear unbalanced. Evaluated quotes that are determined to be unbalanced may be deemed ineligible for award by the Contracting Officer if a determination is made that lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government. Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total price, the price of one or more line-items (including sub line items) is significantly over or understated as demonstrated by application of price analysis techniques, such that:

a) There is reasonable doubt the quote would result in the lowest overall cost to the Government, even though it is the lowest priced quote; or

b) The quote is so grossly unbalanced; its acceptance would be tantamount to allowing an advanced payment.

2.2.5 Total Evaluated Price (TEP)

The TEP will be calculated as the sum of the total proposed prices for all separately priced line items (including sub line items).

The total proposed price for each separately priced line item shall be calculated as the proposed unit price multiplied by the corresponding quantity.

The TEP will be used for evaluation purposes only.

The TEP will be calculated as the sum of the vendor’s proposed prices for all line items.
