BASIS OF AWARD

This requirement will be evaluated as a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) requirement. Award will be made on the basis of the lowest evaluated price of proposals that meet the MEC. The Government anticipates award of a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contract.

The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions, but reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government reserves the right to make no award as a result of this solicitation.

The LPTA process is selected as appropriate for this acquisition because the best value is expected to result from selection of the technically acceptable quotation with the lowest evaluated price. An overall technical rating must be at least "ACCEPTABLE" in order to be eligible for award. An "UNACCEPTABLE" rating, results in the technical quotation being rated "UNACCEPTABLE" unless corrected through discussions. An overall technical rating of

"UNACCEPTABLE" makes a quotation ineligible for award.

Each of the evaluation factors will be rated as follows:

Factor I Technical

The Government will evaluate the offeror's capabilities to provide equipment provided in the RFQ. The supplies recommended by the contractor will be evaluated in how they satisfy all of the MEC’s provided in the RFQ. All quotations submitted with equivalent supplies shall provide a matrix that directly point back to all MEC’s.

Table A-1. Technical Acceptable/Unacceptable Ratings

Rating Description

Acceptable Proposal clearly meets the minimum requirements of the MEC’S and RFQ

Unacceptable Proposal does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the MEC’s and RFQ

Factor II - Price

Reasonableness: The offeror’s proposed line item prices will be evaluated to determine the degree to which the line item prices compare to the prices a reasonable prudent person would expect to incur for the same or similar equipment.

Completeness: Offeror’s have included pricing for all line items, are registered in SAM at time of award and have provided acknowledgement of all amendments.
