52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS AND COMMERCIAL SERVICES (NOV 2021)

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror 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 Submission (Technical Capability Certification Chart within Attachment A).

- Price

- Past Performance

Award(s) will be made for the technically acceptable item or combination of technically acceptable items that result in the lowest aggregate price to the Government.

Technical Acceptability: Will be determined by reviewing the technical capability certification chart (per

Attachment A) submitted for each item (or specification) to ensure that all of the technical requirements identified are met. Technical acceptability will be defined as follows:

Technical Ratings

Rating Description

Acceptable Quote meets all of the requirements identified.

Unacceptable Quote does not meet all of the requirements identified.

Failure to meet any technical requirement for an item (or specification) will make the quotation unacceptable for that item (or that specification).

If an item (or specification) is determined to be technically unacceptable, the quotation will be considered technically unacceptable and not eligible for award.

Price: The estimated amount for each line item will be added together to determine the total estimated price which will become the evaluated price.

Past Performance:

(1) The offeror’s past performance shall be evaluated in accordance with FAR 13.106-2 or 15.305(a)(2), as applicable. This procurement is subject to Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS), authorized by the

Department of Defense for use by participating activities during the acquisition of supplies and services.

(2) The purpose of the SPRS is to provide contracting personnel with quantifiable past performance information regarding delivery and quality, as collected from existing DoD reporting systems. SPRS uses the past performance data collected to classify each supplier’s performance by Federal Supply Class(es) or Service Code(s).

(3) Quality: The method used in SPRS to classify the quality of a supplier’s past performance is a comparison of quality records among all suppliers who have provided goods or services to the Federal Government which are categorized in the same Federal Supply Class or Service Class (FSC). Based on the comparison among suppliers in a specific FSC group, suppliers are classified by SPRS into a color rating that represents the supplier’s overall quality performance for that specific Federal Supply Class or Service Class. The following is a summarization of the SPRS classification colors:

1. Dark Blue: Top 5% of suppliers in FSC group*

2. Purple: Next 10% of suppliers in FSC group*

3. Green: Next 70% of suppliers in FSC group*

4. Yellow: Next 10% of suppliers in FSC group*

5. Red: Bottom 5% of suppliers in FSC group*

* If all supplier performance ratings for an entire FSC group are equal, all suppliers in that group will be classified

Green.

(4) Delivery: Supplier delivery past performance is classified in SPRS by the supplier’s percentage of on time deliveries. On time deliveries are calculated using the number of line items delivered and a weighting factor which reflects the length of time a delivery was overdue.

(5) SPRS classifications are established monthly for each supplier and can be reviewed at https://sprs.csd.disa.mil/.

Suppliers are granted access to SPRS for their own classifications. Offerors are encouraged to review their own classifications as well as the SPRS reporting procedures and methodology detailed in the PPIRS-SR Procedures

Manual and the SPRS User Guide available at https://sprs.csd.disa.mil/. The method to challenge a rating is also found on the identified website.

(6) Suppliers with no history in SPRS will be considered to have a neutral SPRS rating.

(b) Options. N/A

(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.

The offeror’s proposed price will be evaluated on the basis of price reasonableness, in accordance with FAR

13.106-3. All prices must be considered fair and reasonable as determined by the Government. Price quote shall be held firm for sixty (60) days.
