The Offeror must submit an electronic response to this solicitation via email to monte.jordan@usda.gov. The information provided must be concise, factual, and complete.

To be considered responsive, completed technical, pricing, and past performance responses must be sent electronically via email to monte.jordan@usda.gov and received no later than the closing date and time of this solicitation. As a result of this solicitation, the Government intends to establish a Firm-fixed price order. Award of the contract resulting from this solicitation will be made to the responsible offeror, as defined by FAR 9.104-1, whose quote offers the Best Value to the Government.

Responsible includes, but is not limited to, providing a detailed technical proposal, and an active registration in the System for Award Management (www.sam.gov), not being debarred or suspended from doing business with the Federal Government.

As the technical merits of the quotes become more equal, price may become the determining factor.

Any offeror without an active SAM registration will be determined non-responsive and will not receive further consideration for the award.

EVALUATION FACTORS

The evaluation factors for this solicitation are as follows:

FACTOR 1 – Technical Capabilities (Pass/Fail)

The Offeror must submit a technical quotation and must indicate a cost for the required supplies on a separate price quotation.

The Government will evaluate the offeror’s ability to meet all the requirements identified in the Specifications attachment as identified in the Technical Section of their offer. The Offeror must provide a detailed description of knowledge, experience, and skill on how you would meet the requirements listed in the Specifications attachment.

(Pass or Fail).

FACTOR 2: Price The price(s) proposed must be detailed and shall represent the offeror' s response to the schedule of supplies/services above.

Beltsville, MD mailto:monte.jordan@usda.gov mailto:monte.jordan@usda.gov mailto:monte.jordan@usda.gov http://www.sam.gov/

The Government may reject any Offeror that is evaluated to be unrealistic in terms of program commitments, including contract terms and conditions, or unrealistically high or low in cost/price are unbalanced, such that the Offer is deemed to reflect failure to comprehend the technical requirements. As the technical merits of the quotes become more equal, price may become the determining factor.

The Government intends to select one contractor for this acquisition. However, the Government reserves the right not to award a contract at all, depending on the quality of the quotations and prices submitted and the availability of funds.

BEST VALUE/CONTRACTOR SELECTION AND AWARD APPROVAL. The best value/contractor selection criteria in the solicitation are as follows:

Award will be made to that offeror whose quote is the most advantageous to the Government and demonstrates that (1) it meets the technical requirements of the solicitation and (2) the quotation’s technical/cost relationship represents the best value to the Government. Evaluation factors other than cost or price, when combined, are more important than price in the award decision. The critical factor in making any cost/technical tradeoff is not the spread between the technical scores but, rather, the significance of that difference. The significance of the spread of scores will be determined on the basis of what the difference might mean in terms of performance and what it would cost the Government to take advantage of it. Award may not necessarily be made for technical capabilities that would appear to exceed those needed for the successful performance of the work. The Government reserves the right to make cost/technical tradeoffs that are in the best interest and advantageous to the Government. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is determined to be in the best interest of the Government.
