(1) Offerors are responsible for submitting offers, and any modifications, revisions, or withdrawals, so as to reach the Government office designated in the solicitation by the time specified in the solicitation. If no time is specified in the solicitation, the time for receipt is 4:30 p.m., local time, for the designated Government office on the date that offers or revisions are due.

(2)

(i) Any offer, modification, revision, or withdrawal of an offer received at the Government office designated in the solicitation after the exact time specified for receipt of offers is "late" and will not be considered unless it is received before award is made, the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late offer would not unduly delay the acquisition; and-

(4) If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal Government processes so that offers cannot be received at the Government office designated for receipt of offers by the exact time specified in the solicitation, and urgent Government requirements preclude amendment of the solicitation or other notice of an extension of the closing date, the time specified for receipt of offers will be deemed to be extended to the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day on which normal Government processes resume.

(g) Contract award (not applicable to Invitation for Bids). The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror’s initial offer should contain the offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.

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:

The contract will be awarded based on Lowest Price Technically Acceptable determination. Quotes will be evaluated based on the following criteria:

Technical Acceptability: Must meet all specifications and provide documentation demonstrating capabilities to fulfill the Statement of Work (SOW).

Adherence to Schedule and Mobilization: The Government seeks the soonest possible mobilization and execution of the services. Vendors should provide their best and fastest schedule for completion of the work.

Price: Price will be considered as part of the overall best value.

Vendors are required to submit a quote that will be evaluated in accordance with the specifications provided in the solicitation and FAR 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors. Failure to include pricing for all line items shall result in rejection of the quote for all line items.

Technical Requirements:

Capabilities Documentation: Please provide documentation that demonstrates your ability to meet the requirements of the SOW.

Schedule: Confirm your availability for the requested period of performance. If your company is unavailable for the requested period, provide the earliest available start date and the fastest possible schedule for service execution. Award may be made to the vendor who can provide the soonest execution

(b) Options. 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).

(c) 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.
