FAR 52.212-2 ADDENDUM: EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS

EVALUATION: The Government intends to establish a single-award firm-fixed price (FFP) to the vendor who is found to be Purchase Order responsive and provides an acceptable quote to the Government, by virtue of being deemed Lowest Price, Technically Acceptable (LPTA) on

CLIN 0001.

Vendors are to quote on all . The vendor's quoted item descriptions shall reflect the characteristics and level of quality that will satisfy the items Government's need as described in the Schedule of Supplies. Quotes determined to have passed the technical capability requirements will then be evaluated for a fair and reasonable price determination. Quotes shall be evaluated for technical acceptability (only) on an acceptable/unacceptable basis.

The Government intends to evaluate quotes and award without exchanges with vendors. Therefore, the vendor's initial quote should contain the vendor's best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions with the vendor if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary.

TECHNICAL: To ensure technical compliance, the Government will evaluate quotes as follows:

a. The quoter must clearly demonstrate that the quoted solution meets the solicitation requirements. A mere statement that the quoter will meet the Government's requirement is NOT sufficient.

The following ratings/definitions will be utilized for Technical Compliance:

RATING DEFINITION

Acceptable Quote meets the requirements of the solicitation

Unacceptable Quote does not meet the requirement of the solicitation

PRICE: The price quote should avoid ambiguities of inclusion, exclusion, or content. The Government will evaluate Quoter's quoted prices, but this factor will not be given an adjectival rating. Quotes will be evaluated on completeness, accuracy, and reasonableness.

Evaluation of the quoted prices for the supplies/services will be based on a comparison of quoted prices received in response to the solicitation and may also be based on a comparison to the Independent Government Estimate (IGE) along with any other relevant price analysis techniques deemed appropriate.

Reasonableness. For the price to be reasonable in its nature and amount, it should not exceed that which would be incurred by a prudent person in the conduct of a competitive business. Reasonableness takes into account the context of a given evaluation, including current market conditions, general economic conditions, and other factors that affect the ability of a Quoter to perform the contract requirements. Normally, adequate price competition establishes a fair and reasonable price.

Completeness and Accuracy. The Government will review the pricing for completeness and accuracy. The quote will be checked for mathematical correctness to include the following:

1) Checking arithmetic in all computations; and

2) Ensuring all prices are summarized correctly.
