It is incumbent upon the offeror to submit sufficient documentation and information for the Government to determine technical acceptability, and satisfactory past performance.

In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the offeror will be evaluated as neutral on Past Performance, providing the offeror supplies a certified statement with their offer that no past performance information is available.

The Government intends to award a contract without discussions with respective contractors. The Government, however, reserves the right to conduct discussions if deemed in its best interest.

Technical and past performance, when combined, are equal to 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 shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).
