Paragraph (c) is changed to read: Period for acceptance of offers. The Offeror agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 60 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of offers, unless another time period is specified in an addendum to the solicitation.

(End of provision)

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:

(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. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

(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. (End of provision)

ADDENDUM TO FAR 52.212-2, BASIS OF AWARD:

A. General Information:

1. The basis of award will be the Lowest Priced, Technically Acceptable offer. Offerors must receive a rating of Technically Acceptable in all factors/subfactors in order for their overall proposal to be determined Technically

Acceptable.

2. By submission of its offer, the offeror accedes to all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, and technical requirements.

3. The Government intends to make award without discussions, unless the Contracting Officer determines that discussions are necessary. Offerors should provide their most favorable prices in their initial offers.

B. Non-Price Evaluation Factors and Subfactors: The offerer shall provide all information required for the

Government POC to evaluate the quotes for compliance with the requirements detailed in the Purchase Description

(PD). Information includes, but is not limited to: brochures, videos, drawings, and testimonials.

C. Price Evaluation Factor: Offerors shall complete the Schedule with pricing for each Contract Line Item

Number (CLIN).

D. Proposals will be evaluated initially independently of the price to determine the Offerors’ ability to meet the

Government’s requirement set forth in the solicitation. The Government may make a final rating determination based on the proposal as submitted without requesting any further information. For all proposals determined to be Technically Acceptable, the offer providing the lowest price will receive the contract award.

1. Offerors’ technical proposals will receive an overall rating based on the following:

(a) Technically Acceptable: Offeror meets all requirements or technical specifications or has submitted all documentation requested in any technical evaluation criteria and all documentation meets the standard set forth in the solicitation.

(b) Technically Unacceptable: Offerer fails to meet all requirements or technical specifications or has failed to comply in submitting requested documentation in any technical evaluation criteria or the submitted documentation fails to meet the standard set forth in the solicitation.
