The evaluation will assume that the prices for any option exercised under FAR 52.217-8 will be those rates in effect under the contract each time an option is exercised under this clause. The evaluation will therefore assume that the addition of price or prices of any possible extension or extensions under FAR 52.217-8 to the total price for the basic requirement and the total price for the priced options has the same effect on the total price of all quotes relative to each other and will not affect the ranking of quotes based on price, unless after reviewing the quotes, the Government determines that there is a basis for finding otherwise. This evaluation will not obligate the Government to exercise any option under FAR 52.217-8.

FAR Clause 52.217-8 Option to Extend Services: If FAR 52.217-8 is utilized at the end of the contract, prices of any possible extension or extensions will be the awarded pricing for the most currently awarded period pricing.
