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:

1) Factor 1 Health Inspection Report: One legible copy of the state or local government health inspection report for the proposed food preparation facility, if and as required by state and local regulations. The health inspection shall be conducted less than 12 months from the quote submission due date. The facility must have received a score of “A” or “B”; 85 or above” or “pass”, if pass/fail inspection system is used.

The score must be clearly annotated on the report. Failure to provide an acceptable health inspection report will render the quote submission non-compliant.

2) Factor 2 One copy of any required subcontractor agreement, fully executed by both the prime contractor and the subcontractor (if any portion of the effort is to be subcontracted);

3) Factor 3 Past Performance: A satisfactory performance record will be determined as defined by FAR Part

9.104-3(b). The contracting officer’s knowledge of previous experience with the supply or service being acquired; the Government-wide Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS) website; the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) website; and any other reasonable basis will be considered in determining satisfactory past performance (FAR 13.106-2(b)(3)(ii)).

In the event an offeror is found to be unacceptable in past performance pursuant to FAR 19.6 “Certificates of Competency and Determinations of Responsibility”, the Contracting Officer may seek a Certificate of Competency prior to making an award decision.

4) Price: Price will not be rated.

FAR 52.212-2(b) is replaced with:

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). As part of price evaluation, the Government will evaluate its option to extend services (see FAR Clause 52.217-8) by adding one-half (represents six-month period) of the offeror’s final option period price to the offeror’s total price. Thus, the offeror’s total price for the purpose of evaluation will include the base period, 1st option period, 2nd option period, and the amount calculated for the potential six-month extension of services. Offerors are not required to enter a price for the six-month period.

FAR 52.212-2(c) is replaced with:

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.
