BASIS FOR AWARD

1. Award shall be made to a single contractor. Offer must include prices for each line item listed so quotes may be properly evaluated. Failure to do so may be cause for rejection of the entire offer. Award shall be made to the responsible contractor whose total aggregate price is low.

The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all Contract Line Item

Numbers (CLIN) (base period and option periods). In the event there is a difference between a unit price and the total CLIN amount, the unit price will be held as the intended price multiplied by the number of units. If the offeror shows only the total amount but fails to submit a unit price, the total CLIN amount divided by the quantity will be held as the intended price. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total evaluated price, one or more contract line items is significantly overstated or understated as indicated by the application of cost or price analysis techniques. A proposal may be rejected if the Contracting Officer determines that the lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government.

2. The Government intends to award a contract without discussions with respective offerors. The Government, however, reserves the right to conduct discussions if deemed in its best interest.

FUNDING

Funds are not presently available for this acquisition. No contract award will be made until appropriated funds are made available.

ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION

CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION

Inquiries concerning all contractual actions after award shall be directed first to the Contract Specialist. In the absence of the Contract Specialist, please contact the Contracting Officer.
