c. Signed acknowledgements of amendments (applicable only if any amendments are issued against this solicitation.)
(a) Submission of offers. Submit signed and dated offers to the office specified in this solicitation at or before the exact time specified in this solicitation. As a minimum, offers shall include—
(1) The solicitation number;
(2) The name, address, telephone number of the Offeror;
(3) The Offeror’s Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) and, if applicable, Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) indicator;
(4) Information necessary to evaluate the factors contained in the provision at 52.212-2 or as described in the solicitation;

(6) A statement specifying the extent of agreement with all terms, conditions, and provisions included in the solicitation and any solicitation amendments.
(b) Period for acceptance of offers. The Offeror agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 30 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of offers, unless another time period is specified in an addendum to the solicitation.
(c) Late submissions, modifications, revisions, and withdrawals of offers.
(1) Offerors are responsible for submitting offers and any modifications or revisions to the Government office designated in the solicitation by the time specified in the solicitation.
(2) Any offer, modification, or revision received after the time specified for receipt of offers is “late” and will not be considered unless it is received before award is made and the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late offer would not unduly delay the acquisition. However, a late modification of an otherwise successful offer that makes its terms more favorable to the Government will be considered at any time it is received and may be accepted.
(3) If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal Government processes so that offers cannot be received at the Government office designated for receipt of offers by the exact time specified in the solicitation, and urgent Government requirements preclude amendment of the solicitation or other notice of an extension of the closing date, the time specified for receipt of offers will be deemed to be extended to the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day on which normal Government processes resume.
(4) Offerors may withdraw their offers by written notice to the Government received at any time before award.
(d) Contract award (not applicable to Invitation for Bids). The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with Offerors. Therefore, the Offeror’s initial offer should contain the Offeror’s best terms. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions, if necessary. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest, accept other than the lowest offer, and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.
(e) Debriefings. If a post award debriefing is given to requesting Offerors, the Government will disclose the following information, if applicable:
(1) The agency’s evaluation of the significant weak or deficient factors in the debriefed Offeror’s offer.

(4) A summary of the rationale for award.
(5) For acquisitions of commercial products, the make and model of the product to be delivered by the successful Offeror.

Addenda to FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation - Commercial Products and Commercial Services (FEB 2026)
(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. The Government intends to award one (1) contract to the acceptable quoter with the lowest evaluated price which is deemed responsible in accordance with the FAR, and which has submitted a quote conforming to the solicitation requirements. The requirements include all stated terms, conditions, and all other requirements of this solicitation. The Government intends to make an award based on the initial quotes received; therefore, the initial quote should contain the quoter’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. Quoters must be determined to be responsible according to the standards of FAR Subpart 9 to be eligible for award.
2. Failure to provide a complete, detailed, realistic, and reasonable quote may reflect a lack of understanding of the requirements and may result in a determination that the quoter’s quote is unacceptable. The Government does not assume a duty to search for clarification data to cure problems or inconsistencies with a quoter’s quote.
3. The award decision process is being conducted under FAR Part 12, wherein the Contracting Officer is permitted to engage in 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.
4. Although the Government intends to award a Purchase Order resulting from this solicitation, the Government reserves the right to reject any and all quotes received and not award any item or items from this solicitation.
5. Past Performance will be evaluated on an acceptable or unacceptable basis.
PAST PERFORMANCE
To be considered acceptable:
1. The quoter will be evaluated on their past performance record and any other relevant information obtained from available sources which may include Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), other databases, as well as interviews with POC references, Program Managers/Customers, Contracting Officers, or Contracting Officer Representatives (CORs), data submitted by the Quoter as part of the Past Performance file, and any other information available to determine the quality and relevance of the quoter’s past performance.
2. The Government shall determine how well the quoter performed on the recent (within 5 years of solicitation issuance) and relevant (similar in scope, magnitude, complexity) contracts. The Government will assign an acceptable/unacceptable rating as to the quoter’s ability to perform on the required effort based upon the recent and relevant past performance record considering the information available regarding quality of performance.
3. In the case of a quoter without a record or references of recent and 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 quoter may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance (see FAR 15.305(a)(2)(iv), Past Performance Evaluation). Therefore, the quoter shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “unknown” shall be considered “acceptable.”
4. Should the Government discover adverse past performance information to which the quoter had not had a prior opportunity to respond, the Contracting Officer will conduct communications if deemed appropriate.
PRICE AND ADMINISTRATIVE
1. If a quote has been determined acceptable under the non-price factor listed above, the Government will then evaluate the quote for the lowest price. The quoted total price between quoters determined to be technically acceptable will be the determining factor in the selection of a quote for award. Price analysis shall not be conducted on quoters determined to be unacceptable for award, since the quoter will not be in line for award as the lowest priced technically acceptable quoter. All CLINs must be priced.
2. The Government will perform a price analysis to determine the reasonableness of proposed price in accordance with the FAR 15.404-1(b). The Government will utilize a comparison of proposed prices received in response to the solicitation.
(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.
