EVALUATION FOR AWARD - LOWEST PRICE TECHNICALLY ACCEPTABLE AND PAST

PERFORMANCE

(1) The contract resulting from this solicitation will be awarded to the responsible offeror who proposes the lowest price and is technically acceptable. Offerors must submit detailed product information.

(2) Past Performance (see FAR 15.304):

Provide a list of all (maximum of 3) contracts and subcontracts with a value exceeding

$40,000 that are currently in process or have been completed during the past five years for any effort similar to those described herein. If the maximum is exceeded, list the 3 most current actions. Contracts listed shall include those entered into with Federal, state or local governments as well as commercial customers.

Include the following information for each contract and subcontract:

· Contract Title and/or number

· Date of Award

· Name of contracting activity or commercial firm

· Contract type, line items, and quantities manufactured.

· Total contract value

· Brief narrative (not to exceed 10 lines) describing your involvement in the effort, complexity, objectives achieved, and types of personnel who performed under the contract. List major subcontractors, if any.

· Procuring Contracting Officer or Point of Contact and telephone number

Past performance will be evaluated as an indicator of the offeror’s expected future performance. The contracting officer will consider all available information concerning the offeror’s past performance whether contained in the offer or not. This may include information furnished by points of contact not named in the proposal or information from other sources such as commercial rating services. In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the offeror will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance.

(3) Price

(a) Options (if included). 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).

(b) 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.
