52.212-2 Evaluation—Commercial Items (Addendum Replacing 52.212-2 in full)

BASIS OF AWARD: The Gov’t will award a firm-fixed priced contract to the responsible offeror representing the best value to the gov’t, using a streamlined comparative trade-off evaluation in accordance with FAR 12.203 and the below, which may result in award to other than lowest priced quote.

Your quote should contain your best terms. The Gov’t reserves the right to reject without further review quotes which contain additional terms and conditions or exclusions requiring extensive legal or higher level reviews.

After the evaluation of quotes, the Contracting Officer may negotiate final terms with one or more quoters of the Government’s choice. The Contracting Officer will not negotiate with any quoters other than those of the Government’s choice and will not use the formal source selection procedures described in FAR Part 15.

LATE SUBMISSIONS: The Gov’t will not consider any quote that we receive after the deadline unless we receive it before we award a contract and consideration of the quote is otherwise in the best interest of the Gov’t.

STANDING PRICE QUOTATIONS: Standing price quotations may be used if needed and deemed in the best interest of the Gov’t.

PRICE: Gov’t will record total evaluated prices (to include options). If more than 3 quotes are received, the Gov’t will identify a grouping of the most competitively priced quotes; remaining quotes will not be evaluated further unless later deemed necessary by the Contracting Officer.

Options. The Government will evaluate offer 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).

Additionally, as part of price evaluation, the Government will evaluate its option to extend services (see FAR Clause 52.217-8) by calculating the price for six months of performance using the monthly pricing from the offeror's final option period prices. The calculated six month price will be added to the offeror's total proposed price. Thus, the offeror's total price for the purpose of evaluation will include the base period, all option periods, and the calculated six month extension price. This evaluation will not obligate the Government to exercise any option under FAR 52.217-8.

TECHNICAL: The Government will evaluate the technical proposal to determine how well the proposed products or services meet the Government’s requirement. The Gov’t may deem a quote to be technically acceptable or superior if their technical solution differs from the PWS or does not meet the technical minimums, but ultimately results in a solution that will meet or exceed the intent of the Government’s needs and would involve an acceptable level of risk.

MULTIPLE AWARDS: Gov’t will not make multiple awards unless circumstances deem it appropriate and in the best interest of the Gov’t.

AWARDING WITHIN BUDGET: If deemed necessary to stay within budget, the Gov’t may reduce quantities and reach out to offerors with acceptable or better non-price proposals, requesting they revalidate or update their unit pricing. Alternatively, the Gov’t may cancel the requirement if needed.

52.252-1, Solicitation Provisions Incorporated by Reference (Feb 1998)

This solicitation incorporates one or more solicitation provisions by reference, with the same force and effect as if they were given in full text.
