Failure to submit the requested information may result in disqualification of the submitted quote.

ADDENDUM TO FAR PROVISION 52.212-2, EVALUATION – COMMERCIAL ITEMS:

The Government will award a single contract award, commercial, indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract with Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Provisions as a result of this solicitation and in accordance with the policies and procedures of FAR Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial Items and FAR Part 13.5, Simplified Procedures for

Certain Commercial Items. Award will be made to the responsible quoter whose quote conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotes: Technical and Price. The Government will utilize a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable

(LPTA) source selection process in accordance with FAR 13.5.

The Government intends to award a contract without discussions. The establishment of a competitive range is not anticipated. Accordingly, each quoter should submit its most favorable terms from a price and technical standpoint.

However, the Government reserves the right to establish a competitive range and conduct discussions if later determined by the PCO to be necessary. The Government reserves the right to award a firm fixed price award to other than the lowest priced quoter; award a firm fixed priced without discussions; or award a firm fixed priced after discussions, whichever is in the best interest of the Government.

All quotes will be reviewed for timeliness. If the proposal is received after the closing date and does not meet the criteria for “late submissions” in the solicitation, the proposal will not be opened. Timely quotes will be reviewed for responsiveness (compliance) to the solicitation. If the quote is not responsive to the solicitation, it will not be evaluated and the offeror will be notified that the quote is non-responsive. The government will not accept partial offers; any partial offer will be deemed non-responsive.

The Government will conduct a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) source selection. To determine

LPTA, the Government will place all quotes in order of lowest total price to highest total price. Award will be made to the lowest priced quote found to be Acceptable with respect to Technical and Price. The selection of a quote for award will be conducted in two phases:

Phase I will consist of the evaluation of Factor I, Technical. If the quoter receives a rating of “Acceptable” for

Factor I – Technical, the quoter will proceed to Phase II of the evaluation i.e., evaluation of Factor II-Price. If the quoter receives a rating of “Unacceptable” for Factor I – Technical, the quoter will be considered un-awardable and will not be further evaluated. Thereafter, the next lowest total price quote will be evaluated for acceptability in accordance with the evaluation criteria established in the solicitation.

Quotes will be evaluated for acceptability. Selection of a vendor for award will be based on two parts, as follows:

Technical Acceptability (Acceptable/Unacceptable)

Price

In order to be considered awardable, quotes must receive an overall rating of ‘Acceptable’ for the non-price quote.

Non-Price Quote Evaluation Criteria:

The Non-Price quote is comprised of the following Factors: Factor I – Technical Acceptability

1. Factor I - Technical Acceptability (Acceptable/Unacceptable):

Factor I – Technical Acceptability will be evaluated on an acceptable/unacceptable basis using the

Acceptable/Unacceptable Ratings Table 1 below. Factor I will be evaluated on the quoter’s submission of the signed statement certifying that the quoters will meet requirements listed in the Requirements Statement, Delivery Information, and Attachment I – Pricing Schedule. A completed Attachment I – Pricing Schedule will not be evaluated for Factor I – Technical Acceptability and is for informational purposes only for this part of the evaluation.

Table 1 –Technical Acceptable/Unacceptable Ratings Table

Technical Ratings

Rating Description

Acceptable Quoter clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Quoter does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

NOTE: A rating of “Unacceptable” for Factor I means that the quoter’s quote is not awardable and is not susceptible to correction without what would be tantamount to the submission of an entirely new quote.

Price Quote Evaluation Criteria:

The Price quote is comprised of Factor II – Price.

Factor II – Price:

Price will be evaluated in accordance with FAR 13.106.3. For the purpose of preparing a price quote, the contractor shall assume that the basic period of performance will be one (1) five (5) year ordering period and a six month option to extend in accordance with FAR 52.217-8.

To determine LPTA, the Government will place all quotes in order of lowest total price to highest total price.

Starting with the lowest total priced quote, the Government will review the Technical for acceptability. If the quoter is found to be “Acceptable”, no other quotes will be reviewed and award will be made. However, if the quote is found to be “Unacceptable”, the next lowest priced quote will be considered. This process will continue until either a quote is considered “Acceptable” or until all quotes have been considered “Unacceptable”.

The Government may evaluate any and all information submitted by the quoter to support the reasonableness of prices proposed. The method of evaluation used by the Contracting Officer is solely within the discretion of the

Contracting Officer. Additionally, the government may request quoters to submit additional information/data to support price reasonableness such as copies of paid invoices for the same or similar items or uncertified cost and pricing data. Failure to submit the requested information may result in disqualification of the submitted quote.

A written notice of award or acceptance of a quote e-mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful quoter within the time for acceptance specified in the quote shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party.
