ADDENDUM to RFO 52.212-2 EVALUATION—COMMERCIAL ITEMS:

(a) This is FAR Part 13 acquisition. 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 considering price only. The following factors should be used to evaluate offers:

Price – The Government will evaluate offers by adding all line-item prices - the Total of All CLINS will be that sum. The Government may use various price analysis techniques and procedures to make price reasonableness determination. Offers that do not meet the technical capability requirements of the Statement of Work shall not be selected regardless of price.

(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 should 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.

(c) The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotations:

Factor 1. Technical capability or quality of the item offered to meet the Government requirement

Factor 2. Completion of “Attachment - VAAR Clause 852.219-75/6 VA Notice of Limitations on Subcontracting- Certificate of Compliance for Services/Supplies and Products (DEVIATION)”

Factor 6. Submission of Authorized Distributor Letter

(d) Evaluation Approach. 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 Government will use comparative analysis. The following factors will be used to evaluate offers:

Factor I. Technical capability or quality offered to meet the Government requirement:

The quotation will be evaluated to the extent to which it can meet and/or exceed the Government’s requirements as outlined in the solicitation and based on the information requested in the instructions to quoters section of the solicitation.

Factor 2. Completion of “Attachment - VAAR Clause 852.219-75/6 VA Notice of Limitations on Subcontracting-Certificate of Compliance for Services/Supplies and Products (DEVIATION)”:

The Government will evaluate the responses an offeror makes to Attachment - VAAR Clause 852.219-75/6 VA Notice of Limitations on Subcontracting-Certificate of Compliance for Services/Supplies and Products (DEVIATION)” for completeness. If an offeror fails to complete Attachment - VAAR Clause 852.219-75/6 VA Notice of Limitations on Subcontracting-Certificate of Compliance for Services/Supplies and Products (DEVIATION)” their quote will be determined ineligible for award.

Factor 3. Price:

The Government will evaluate the price by adding the total of all line-item prices, including all options. The Government may use various price analysis techniques and procedures to make price reasonableness determination. Offers that do not meet or exceed the technical capability or quality of the item offered to the Government requirement shall not be selected regardless of price.

Factor 4. Delivery Lead Time:

The Government will evaluate delivery lead time in addition to other evaluation factors specified above and select the quoter/offer whose bid is most advantageous to the Government.

Factor 5. Submission of completed Buy American/Trade Agreements Certificate:

The Government will evaluate the information provided in the completed Buy American/Trade Agreements Certificate for compliance with FAR Part 25. Priority may be given to products made in the US.

Factor 6. Submission of Authorized Distributor Letter:

Vendor eligibility will be determined – in addition to other evaluation factors above – by the submission of a proper OEM letter (see VAAR 852.212-71(c)) from the manufacturer of the products included in the quote.

**The Government may consider an award to other than the lowest priced quoter/offeror if it’s in the best interest of the Government.**

If offeror does not provide all volumes as outlined in RFO 52.212-1 Instructions, the offer may be considered non-responsive.

(e) 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. The evaluation of options does not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).
