ADDENDUM TO FAR 52.212-2, EVALUATION – COMMERICAL ITEMS (OCT 14)

FAR 52.212-2 is amended in its entirety as follows:

1. The Government will award a single contract resulting from this RFQ to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the RFQ will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

0. Technical

0. Each offeror’s Technical Proposal will be evaluated as Acceptable or Unacceptable. To be rated Acceptable, the offeror must provide a Technical Approach which clearly proves the offeror can operate at all locations and can provide ATGHS as required by the PWS’.

0. Price

1. In order to be considered for award, all prices must be determined fair and reasonable. The Government may determine an offer is unacceptable if the option rates are significantly unbalanced.

1. Options. FAR 52.217-8, Extension of Services Clauses, is included in this RFP. The Government will consider the total evaluated price (TEP) of each proposal when making a best value decision. The TEP consists is the offeror's total price which is determined adding the total price of the base requirement, all option periods, and the total price for the 6-month Extension of Services. Pricing for the 6-month Extension of Services will be based on the unit prices proposed in the offeror's final option period. Offerors shall not submit a price for the potential 6-month Extension of Services. 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).

1. 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.

1. Basis of Award: The Government intends to award a single contract resulting from this RFQ. This acquisition will be conducted utilizing the lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA) procedures. This acquisition is being conducted under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures, Subpart 13.5 and Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial Items of the FAR. Offers will be evaluated using the factors identified in FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation -- Commercial Items (Oct 2014), and FAR 13.106-2, Evaluation of Quotations or Offers.

1. Based on the TEP, the Government will rank the proposals in ascending price order. The lowest priced offer will be evaluated first. If the lowest priced offer is found to be Technically Acceptable, the award will be made to that offeror and no further evaluations will be conducted. If the lowest price offer is not technically acceptable, that process will continue by order of price ranking until an offer is deemed Technically Acceptable. The lowest priced, technically acceptable offeror will represent the best value to the Government. Award will be made to that offeror without further consideration of any other offeror.

1. Offerors are cautioned to submit sufficient information and in the format specified in FAR 52.212-1. The Contracting Officer at any time may inquire about any offeror’s proposal if additional information or a revised proposal is required.
