Evaluation-Commercial Products and Commercial Services (Feb 2026) (Deviation 2026-O0038)

(a) Evaluation factors. 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 will be used to evaluate offers:

1. Technical Evaluation - Acceptable/unacceptable rating based on the ability to comply with the requirements of the Statement of Work(SOW) or Performance Work Statement (PWS) as evidenced by providing a complete description of the Supply or Service to be provided. Specification sheets or capability statements are required for the evaluation of commercial items and services.

2. Price - Determination of a fair and reasonable price based on market research and independent government estimates. For all offers which are rated "acceptable" for all factors other than cost or price, the Government then selects the offer with the lowest valuated price.

(b) Options (if applicable). 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).

(c) Notice of award. A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer 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.

(End of provision)
