PROVISIONS AND CLAUSES INCORPORATED BY FULL TEXT

FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation—Commercial Products and Commercial Services

(a) Evaluation factors. 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 will be used to evaluate offers:

FACTOR 1: TECHNICAL CAPABILITY

FACTOR 2: PRICE

FACTOR 1: TECHNICAL CAPABILITY

The Government will evaluate an offeror’s technical capability on an Acceptable/Unacceptable basis, defined as follows:

1. Acceptable: An offer will be deemed technically acceptable if it meets the requirements of the Solicitation. To show that the offer meets the requirements of the Solicitation, the offeror must provide the certificate(s) of analysis or certificate(s) of quality required by subfactor a, and the supplier commitment letter required by subfactor b.

2. Unacceptable: An offer that does not meet the requirements of the Solicitation.

An offer must be technically acceptable under each subfactor (a and b) to be technically acceptable under FACTOR 1: TECHNICAL

CAPABILITY.

Subfactor A. Certificate of Analysis (COA) or Certificate of Quality (COQ)

To be technically acceptable under this subfactor, an offeror must submit for each line item offered: a certificate of analysis, certificate of quality, or a specification sheet for each applicable product in accordance with QAP C1.02. Offerors must clearly designate, label, and cross-reference which certificate and specification sheet applies to each specific line item offered, demonstrating that the offeror can provide fuel meeting the applicable specification. Vendor must submit a valid COA written in English that is not older than 3 months from the date offers are due.

Test reports/certificate(s) of analysis (COA(s)) submitted under this solicitation, tested in accordance with the C QAP requirements, shall meet one of the requirements below:

1) Match source of supply COA with source of supply in the supplier commitment letter.

or

2) COA(s) provided by 3rd party regional laboratory shall be located in the region.

Subfactor B. Supply Commitment Letter

The offeror must submit letters of commitment from their transportation companies and petroleum suppliers. Letters of commitment must reference the solicitation number, solicitation quantity, state the product, the specification, the source of supply, and the length of period of performance. All letters of commitment must be on petroleum supplier or transportation company letterhead and signed by an official representative of the petroleum supplier or transportation company. The Government may also request copies of the supply and/or transportation agreements with the offeror’s suppliers and/or subcontractors. The statement must be substantially similar to the following:

[Name of Offeror], in combination its subcontractor, [name of subcontractor], currently has all permissions, certifications, qualifications, licenses, and commitments required to deliver the product required under solicitation line items [identify all applicable line item numbers].

E.g.: ABC Corporation, in combination with its subcontractor XYZ, LLC, currently has all permissions, certifications, qualifications, licenses, and commitments required to deliver the product required under solicitation line items 0001, 0006, and 0008–0010.

If the offeror is not using or relying on a subcontractor, it should not reference a subcontractor in the statement.

FACTOR 2: PRICE

Evaluation of price for each CLIN will be made by determining the total estimated price for that CLIN. For evaluation purposes, total estimated price will be determined as follows:

- The offered unit price per gallon for each individual line item will be multiplied by the estimated quantity stated in the solicitation schedule. The resultant price will be the total offer price that the Government will evaluate for purposes of contract award. Lowest price will be determined on a line item-by-line-item basis.

- Offerors are reminded that proposed unit prices shall include all applicable taxes that the U.S government is not exempt.

- The six-month extension provision for each line item will be evaluated by multiplying the offered unit price against an estimated quantity for the six-month period. Evaluation of options does not obligate the Government to exercise options.

(b) Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. The evaluation of options does not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

(c) Notice of award. A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer 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.
