52.212-2 ADDENDUM

Regional Contracting Office, Camp Pendleton, CA, is issuing Request For Quotation (RFQ) to procure a Coordinator of Religious Education (CRE). This procurement is conducted in accordance with FAR Part 12 (Acquisition of Commercial Items) utilizing FAR Part 13 (Simplified Acquisition Procedures).

Incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2025-04, effective 06/11/2025 and DFARS Change Notice (DCN) 01/17/2025, effective 01/17/2025.

BASIS FOR AWARD: Award will be made on technical ability and price. The resulting award will be a Firm-Fixed Priced purchase order, all or none, to provide Religious Education services.

EVALUATION: The Government intends to make a single Firm Fixed Price award to satisfy this requirement.

Award will be made on the initial evaluation of quotes received in response to this RFQ. Therefore, quoters are cautioned to ensure that initial quotes contain your best terms from a technical and price standpoint. The following factors will be used to evaluate quotes:

1. TECHNICAL: Minimum specifications:

Compliance with the Statement of Work (SOW) Provide proof of and all documents required from SOW Section 5.0 – Qualification

Rating will be in accordance with:

RATING

DESCRIPTION

ACCEPTABLE Quotation meets the requirements of the solicitation.

2. PRICE: All quotes must be the Contractor’s best pricing. Price analysis shall be used to verify that the overall price offered is fair and reasonable. The Offeror shall input the unit price and total in all the line items present in the SF1449. The total evaluated price is calculated using the prices proposed for all line items.

3. EVALUATION PROCESS: The evaluation will proceed as follows:

Step 1 – The Contracting Officer will review offers to determine if each offeror has submitted a responsive quote. To be responsive, quoters must submit all the documentation identified above, by the RFQ close date/time shown in block 8 of the SF1449. A quote may be eliminated from the competition without further consideration if it does not meet the responsiveness requirements.

Step 2 – Quotes that have been determined responsive will then be evaluated and receive a rating of Acceptable or Unacceptable based on the technical acceptability criteria above. Offerors must receive an “Acceptable” rating on each technical element to be determined technically “Acceptable”.

Step 3 – Remaining technically acceptable quotes will be ranked in order from lowest to highest based on submitted CLIN prices. All CLIN prices will be evaluated and determined to be fair and reasonable using one or more of the techniques set forth in FAR 15.404-1(b)(2). The assessment of price will consider the overall quoted price. Quotes containing only partial pricing will not be evaluated.

Step 4 – Award shall be made to the lowest quoter without further consideration of any other quotes.

Incomplete quotes may not be considered.

The Government reserves the right to award no contract, depending on the quality of the quotes submitted and availability of funds for the requirement. The Government intends to evaluate quotes and award a single contract without requesting or accepting revised quotes. Therefore, the Offerors will be advised that their initial quote should contain the most favorable terms and reflect its best possible performance potential. The Government does reserve the right to clarify quotes and hold discussions.
