EVALUATION FACTORS

a. PRICE

Offer Submittal Requirements:

(a) Price:

Offerors shall provide a Bid Guarantee, a Proposal Cover Sheet (Attachment 3), and SF-1442 solicitation form. (Please ensure all required items on the SF-1442 are completed with your proposal information as well as the offeror representation and certification sections.)

(b) Basis of Evaluation:

The Government will evaluate price based on the total price of all line items. Proposals that provide prices greater than the budgetary amount may be rejected.

Analysis will be performed by one or more of the following techniques to ensure a fair and reasonable price:

(a) Comparison of proposed prices received in response to the RFP.

(b) Comparison of proposed prices with the Government Estimate (GE).

(c) Comparison of proposed prices with available historical information.

EVALUATION

1. The Government reserves the right to eliminate from consideration for award any or all offers at any time prior to award; to negotiate with offerors in the competitive range (if applicable); and to award the task order to the offeror submitting the Lowest Price, Technically Acceptable proposal.

2. The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with offerors (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)). The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Source Selection Evaluation Board (SSEB) determines them to be necessary. In addition, if the SSEB determines that the number of proposals that would otherwise be in the competitive range exceeds the number at which an efficient competition range can be conducted, the SSEB may limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals. Therefore, each initial offer should contain the offeror’s best terms from a price standpoint.

3. The Low Price, Technically Acceptable process is selected as appropriate for this acquisition because the best value is expected to result from selection of the proposal with the lowest evaluated price that is technically acceptable.

4. Past performance will be evaluated as part of the responsibility determination in accordance with FAR Part 9.103
