Therefore, quoters are cautioned that their initial quotes should contain their best terms from a technical and price standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions with vendors if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The

Unacceptable Quote does not meet the requirements of the solicitation.

The Government may use information such as DoD PPIRS, SPRS and FAPIIS data available from Government sources to evaluate a Quoter's past performance.

TECHNICAL CAPABILITY. To ensure technical compliance, the quoter must clearly demonstrate that they can meet the solicitation requirements as specified in the Performance Work Statement (PWS). Each task stated in the

PWS shall be addressed and will be evaluated for technical acceptability. A mere statement that the quoter will meet the Government’s requirement is NOT sufficient.

Quoter’s quoted prices, but this factor will not be given an adjectival rating. Quotes will be evaluated on completeness, accuracy, and reasonableness. Evaluation of the quoted prices for the services will be based on a comparison of quoted prices received in response to the solicitation and may also be based on a comparison to the

Independent Government Cost Estimate (IGCE) along with any other relevant price analysis techniques.

Reasonableness. For the price to be reasonable in its nature and amount, it should not exceed that which would be incurred by a prudent person in the conduct of a competitive business. Reasonableness considers the context of a given source selection, including current market conditions, general economic conditions, and other factors that affect the ability of a Quoter to perform the contract requirements. Normally, adequate price competition establishes a fair and reasonable price.

Completeness and Accuracy. The Government will review the quotes for completeness and accuracy. A determination will be made as to whether the Quoter properly completed the pricing tables. The Quoter’s quote will be checked for mathematical correctness to include the following:

1) Checking arithmetic in all computations; and

2) Ensuring all prices are summarized correctly.
