RFO 52.212-2 Evaluation – Commercial Products and Commercial Services
(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:
Lowest Price Technically Acceptable evaluation approach criteria:
Price
Technical (Capability of the services offered to meet the Government’s need) – The contractor’s response must demonstrate the capability to perform all requirements and provide a detailed technical response of how all required items within SON will be accomplished. The contractor must be able to complete all work within the 7 calendar day delivery window and following 30 calendar day period of performance.
Compliance with all other RFQ requirements – The Contractor must include or meet all other requirements set forth within this RFQ to be determined as responsive.
Evaluation factors other than price when combined are approximately 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).
N/A
(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.
(End of provision)
LPTA evaluation process/steps:
1) Upon RFQ submission deadline closing, the Government will order all quotes received from the lowest price to the highest. A review of lowest priced quote will be conducted to determine if the offeror has met all listed requirements within the RFQ to be deemed responsive.
2) If all requirements within the RFQ have been met/provided, a technical evaluation will be conducted for technical acceptability.
3) If determined to be technically acceptable, and the offeror’s price is determined to be fair, reasonable, and balanced, the evaluation will end and award will be made to that offeror.
4) If the lowest priced offeror is deemed non-responsive for missing any RFQ requirements; or, if the offeror’s quote is determined to be non-technically acceptable, the next lowest priced offeror will be evaluated IAW steps 1-3, and this will be repeated until a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable offeror is determined.
