Offerors shall email their quotes to Catherine Doyne at catherine.doyne@dla.mil (End of Provision) Addenda to FAR 52.212-2 EVALUATION – COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT 2014) Contractors are reminded that a Request For Quotation is not a request for proposal and that a quote is not an offer that the Government accepts or awards. This competition is not being conducted using FAR Part 15 procedures. The award decision process is being conducted under FAR Part 12 and FAR Part 13, wherein the Contracting Officer is permitted to have substantive communications with individual contractors about their quotes without being subject to the policies and procedures of FAR Part 15, and without engaging in "discussions" or "negotiations" under FAR Part 15.

The Government reserves the right to evaluate quotes and may seek to make an award without asking for revised quotes or entering substantive discussions. Accordingly, contractors are encouraged to provide their most realistic and competitive terms with their initial quotes.

(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. Award will be made on an all or none basis. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

(i) Lowest aggregate price for all CLINs, inclusive of the option for increased quantity CLINs. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all CLINs together (including option for increased quantity CLINs). The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option for increased quantity CLINs prices is significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of option for increased quantity CLINs shall not obligate the Government to exercise those items (additional quantities).

(b) 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.

(b) Before either party determines ADR inappropriate, that party must discuss the use of ADR with the other party. The documentation rejecting ADR must be signed by an official authorized to bind the Contractor (see Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clause 52.233-1), or, for the Agency, by the Contracting Officer, and approved at a level above the Contracting Officer after consultation with the ADR Specialist and with legal.
