BASIS FOR AWARD:

The Government intends to award a commercial firm-fixed-price (FFP) contract to the responsible offeror whose quote conforms to the requirements of this combined synopsis/solicitation. Quotes will be evaluated in accordance with FAR 12.203, “Evaluation”. A single award will be made based on the Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable (LPTA) evaluation approach. (Note: See FAR 52.212-2 for evaluation criteria detailed herein).

In accordance with DFARS provision 252.204-7025(d), “The Offeror shall provide, in the quote, the CMMC unique identifier(s) (CMMC UIDs) issued by SPRS for each contractor information system that will process, store, or transmit FCI or CUI during performance of a contract, task order, or delivery order resulting from this solicitation”. Failure to provide the UID and confirmation of CMMC Level 1 (Self-Assessment) for this requirement with quote submission will result in ineligibility for award.

A quote that fully complies with the above as well as the requirements of this synopsis/solicitation will be evaluated for award. Any submission that fails to complete the following representations and certifications: FAR 52.212-3, 52.204-24, 52.204-26 will also be considered non-responsive to the solicitation's requirements and therefore, ineligible for award.

Verification can be provided via SAM.gov or as attachments to the offeror’s quote submission.

In accordance with FAR 52.212-1(d), 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 from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be 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.

Quotes will be evaluated in accordance with FAR 52.212-2, “Evaluation—Commercial Products and Commercial Services (Nov 2021)”:

(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. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

Factor 1 Cost/Price: Price will be evaluated based on the total proposed price for CLIN 0001 and CLIN 0002.

mailto:Aqua.m.jefferson.civ@army.mil

Factor 2 Technical: Offerors shall demonstrate their ability to meet the specifications provided in this solicitation. Additionally, the technical element of the evaluation shall be based solely on information furnished by the vendor. The Government is not responsible for locating or securing any information which is not provided in the proposal.

Factor 3 Past Performance: Offeror’s Past performance shall be evaluated by reviewing performance information reported to the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), as well as other sources of information.

Technical and Past Performance, when combined, are approximately equal to Cost/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).

(c) 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.
