ADDENDUM TO 52.212-2

Award will be made using the lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA) source selection process. Award will be made to the responsible offeror on the basis of the lowest evaluated price of proposals meeting or exceeding the acceptability standards for non-cost factors. Award may be made without discussions with offerors (except communications conducted for the purpose of minor clarification). Therefore, each initial offer should contain the offeror's best terms from a technical and price standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if it is later determined by the contracting officer to be necessary.

(a). The Government will award a Purchase Order resulting from this solicitation, to the responsible Request For

Quote (RFQ) conforming to the solicitation, with the lowest price technically acceptable. Award will be on an all or none basis. The following evaluation factors shall be used to evaluate offers: Technical Acceptability and Price.

The Government will initially list proposals from lowest to highest price. The Government will evaluate the lowest priced proposal first. If that proposal is determined technically unacceptable, the Government will evaluate the next lowest priced proposal and continue in that manner until a proposal is rated Technically Acceptable. If a proposal is rated Technically Unacceptable, the Government will not evaluate any other factor. USING THIS PROCEDURE, THE GOVERNMENT MIGHT NOT EVALUATE ALL PROPOSALS.

The Offer will be found technically acceptable if the offer meets the following salient characteristics “brand name or equal” to the BioFire Film Array Torch analyzer, fully automated platform for Molecular Respiratory and

Gastrointestinal Pathogen Testing. The Salient Characteristics and requirements are listed below:

1. Technical Acceptability: The contractor shall provide a lease/rental basis for one (1) fully integated analyzer “brand name or equal” to BioFire Film Array Torch analyzer, for Irwin Army Community

Name or Equal. The analyzer shall be fully integrated platform, training, supplies, reagents, for the equipment, subject to applicable warranty, and telephonic assistance. Contractor shall include delivery, installation, all calibrators/standards, reagents/reagent packs, and quality control materials necessary to perform the initial method validation per CLIA/NCCLS QM guidelines.

Explain your firm’s capability, to include any processes currently in place that will ensure all of the specifications identified are met. Statements that the offeror understands, can or will comply with all specifications, or statements paraphrasing the specification of parts thereof, or phrases such as “standard procedures will be used” or “well-known techniques” will be considered insufficient. Contractor shall provide the one (1) fully automated analyzer “brand name or equal” to BioFire Film Array Torch analyzer.

Technical Acceptability is based on performing ALL of the requirements listed below and ALL of the requirements listed in the Performance Work Statement (PWS); with emphasis on paragraph 1. These areas are not all inclusive, as all areas of the Statement of Work must be met. See the Performance Work

Statement (PWS) for details.

2. Analyzer must have capabilities to detect several nucleic acid targets at once.

3. Analyzer must have at least two internal controls for every patient.

4. Reagents must be stored at room temperature as refrigerator space is limited.

5. Analyzer must produce results in less than one hour and forty minutes with limited hands-on time (limited time; 5-10 minutes per specimen, which does not factor in prepping all the reagents).

6. Analyzer must have FDA approved respiratory and gastrointestinal pathogen panels.

b. Clearly identify the item by -

(1). Brand name, if any: and

(2). Make or model number:

c. Include descriptive literature such as illustrations, drawings, or a clear reference to previously furnished descriptive data or information available to the Contracting Officer.

(must) be completed by Contractor personnel.

Offerors receiving a rating of “unacceptable” in any technical factor will not be eligible for award.

f. The evaluation factors for Technical Acceptability.

Acceptable: Documentation provided clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable: Documentation provided does not meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

2. Price: Price will be evaluated using various price analysis techniques and procedures IAW FAR

15.404-1(b) including, but not limited to, comparison of proposed price received in response to the solicitation with a comparison to market research. Evaluation of price will include a determination that the price is fair and reasonable.

Price must be determined to be fair and reasonable.

The total contract price will be calculated by adding the lease cost of the analyzer (if priced), and the cost of reagents/panels for the base year and each option year. Annotate each CLIN price and total price on the
