52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT 2014)

(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:

1. Technical

2. Price

(b) Basis for Award & Evaluation:

This will be a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) procurement. The Government intends to evaluate quotations and award a contract without discussions with Offerors. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary. The LPTA process is selected as appropriate for this acquisition because the best value is expected to result from the selection of the technically acceptable, lowest-priced quotation for each separately priced CLIN. The Government will evaluate each CLIN to determine if the vendor is quoting the specified Brand Name Product, or an Equal Product that meets the criteria set forth in the “Technical Specifications and Salient Characteristics” and FAR Clause 52.211-6, “Brand Name or Equal.” For the purposes of evaluation only, neither brand name product quoters, nor equal product quoters, need to demonstrate in their quotations that the proposed appliances contain or bear English language instructions, inscriptions, or stickers. Again, that allowance applies to the evaluation of quotations only. The delivered appliances must satisfy all of the Technical Specifications and Salient Characteristics contained in the RFQ in order to be accepted by the Government pursuant to FAR Clause 52.212-4(a).

FACTOR 1: Technical –A technically acceptable quote on the CLIN level is a quote that offers the specified Brand Name Product and model for that CLIN, or offers an Equal Product that meets the criteria set forth in the “Technical Specifications and Salient Characteristics” and FAR Clause 52.211-6 for that CLIN. For the purposes of evaluation only, neither brand name product quotations, nor equal product quotations, need to demonstrate that the proposed appliances contain or bear English language instructions, inscriptions, or stickers.

FACTOR 2: PRICE – For the quoted CLINs determined to be technically acceptable, the Government will evaluate those CLINs’ prices and make award to the lowest-priced quote for each specific CLIN that is determined to be fair and reasonable.

The Government has the right to award to multiple quoters based on the technical and price evaluations for each of the quoted CLINs, but intends to make only one award per CLIN. Quotations that do not conform to the requirements of the RFQ may be rejected without further evaluation, deliberation, or discussion.

(c) A written notice of award or acceptance of offers, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offerors within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party.

Before the offers 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.

(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.
