(a) 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 following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

Price, Technical Capability, and Past Performance.

The Government will evaluate quotations based on the Best Value - Tradeoffs source selection process.

The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotations:

Solicitation 1232SA25Q0503 PerkinElmer DA 7250 NIR (near-infrared) Analyzer

Terms and Conditions Page 11 of 28

Factor #1: Price - The price(s) proposed must be detailed and shall represent the offeror' s response to the schedule of supplies/services above. The Government will evaluate the proposed price to determine that Offeror’s proposed price is valid, realistic, fair, and reasonable as well as for consistency and whether it reflects a clear understanding of the Specifications document requirement. 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.

Factor #2: Technical Capability (Pass/Fail) - The Quoter must be deemed technically acceptable in all the following to receive a rating of Pass for Technical Capability:

The Government will evaluate the offeror’s ability to meet all the requirements/salient characteristics identified in the Specifications attachment as identified in the Technical Section of their offer. Technical capability and understanding will be rated as to the extent the Offeror can clearly and fully demonstrate that it has a thorough understanding of the requirements and can successfully meet the requirements. (Pass or Fail).

Factor #3: Past Performance - Past performance will be evaluated in accordance with FAR 13.106-2. Past Performance will be rated on an “acceptable” or “unacceptable” basis. The apparent successful, prospective contractor must have “acceptable” past performance. System for Award Management (SAM.gov) exclusions list, Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System, and Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) shall be considered as part of the past performance evaluation process. Any past performance that is found to be “Negative,” shall result in the entire Past Performance rating as “Unacceptable.” “Negative” is defined as any CPARS past performance evaluation rated less than “Satisfactory,” any Terminations for Default/Cause, or any negative performance references will be rated as ‘Unacceptable.’

Note: In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “unknown” shall be considered “acceptable.” Any past performance that is found to be “negative,” shall result in the entire Past Performance rating as “Unacceptable” making the overall Technical Acceptability as “Unacceptable.”

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.

Rejection of Unreasonable Quotations: The Government may reject any quotation that is evaluated to be unreasonable in terms of program commitments, including contract terms and conditions, or unreasonably high or low in cost when compared to Government estimates or price competition, such that the quotation is deemed to reflect an inherent lack of competence or failure to comprehend the complexity and risks of the program.

(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 shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

(c) 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.
