*FAR Provision 52.212-2, Evaluation – Commercial Products and Commercial Services (Nov 2021), applies to this acquisition and the following evaluation is applicable:

Basis of Award:

Contracts awarded under FAR 13 are not subject to FAR 15.3 procedures. Accordingly, award of a contract under this RFQ, should an award be made, shall follow the procedures outlined in FAR Part 12 and 13, as supplemented.

A purchase order may be awarded to the offeror who is deemed responsible IAW FAR 9.1, as supplemented, whose quote conforms to the RFQ's requirements and is judged to represent the technically acceptable quote with the lowest complete, reasonable, and balanced price. First, the Government will rank the quotes which conform to the RFQ's requirements from lowest priced to highest priced. Then, the

Government will evaluate the lowest priced for technical acceptability as follows:

Technically acceptable - quote meets all the requirements of the RFQ.

Technically unacceptable - quote does not meet all the requirements of the RFQ.

If the quote with the lowest price is determined technically acceptable and the price is complete, reasonable, and balanced, this offeror’s quote represents the best value to the Government and award will be made to that offeror. If the lowest priced quote requires resolution of minor or clerical errors to any aspect of the mailto:paytonne.szatkowski@us.af.mil mailto:paytonne.szatkowski@us.af.mil http://www.sam.gov/portal/public/SAM/ quote, including technical or price, the Government will consider the correction potential and may enter interchanges with that offeror. If, after interchanges to resolve minor or clerical errors with that offeror, the quote is technically acceptable and remains the lowest priced quote, the order will be awarded to that offeror.

If the Government deems the quote not easily correctable, or if at any time the quote becomes other than the lowest priced, the next lowest priced quote will be evaluated for technical acceptability, followed by an analysis of the price to verify reasonableness, completeness, and balanced pricing. Interchanges will take place as necessary or deemed appropriate by the Government. Applicable definitions are outlined below:

Completeness - The Offeror’s price will be reviewed to determine the extent to which all the price elements have been addressed. The Offeror’s price quote will be evaluated to ensure continuity and traceability of prices to the technical quote and between the initial quote and any revisions. The review will determine the adequacy of the contractor’s quote in addressing and fulfilling the RFQ requirement.

Reasonableness - For a price to be reasonable, it must represent a price to the Government that a prudent person would pay in the conduct of competitive business. The Government will determine price fair and reasonable using one or more of the price analysis techniques at FAR 13.106-3(a).

Unbalanced pricing - Contractors are cautioned against submitting an offer that contains unbalanced pricing.

Unbalanced pricing may increase performance risk and could result in payment of unreasonably high prices.

Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total evaluated price, the price of one or more contract line items is significantly over or understated. The Government shall analyze offers to determine whether they are unbalanced with respect to separately priced line items or sub-line items. An offer that is determined to be unbalanced may be rejected if the Contracting Officer determines that the lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government.

This evaluation process will be repeated until reaching a technically acceptable quote, or until all quotes are evaluated. In order to determine price fair and reasonable, the evaluation process may continue until reaching two technically acceptable quotes (to establish adequate price competition). The Government intends to make award based on the initial quote submissions without conducting interchanges. Therefore, each offeror should contain the Offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the

Government reserves the right to hold interchanges if, during the evaluation, it is determined to be in the best interest of the Government. Interchanges are fluid interaction(s) between the Contracting Officer (CO) and the Offerors that may address any aspect of the quote, including technical and price, and may or may not be documented in real time. Offeror responses to INs will be considered in making the order selection decision.
