The following provisions are incorporated into 52.212-2 as an addendum to this solicitation:

Evaluation Factors for Award

(a) Basis for Contract Award. This is a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable source selection conducted in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 13.106-2, Evaluation of quotations or offers, as supplemented by the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), and the Army Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (AFARS). The Government will select the best overall quote, based upon an integrated assessment of Experience, Past Performance, and Price Factors. Contract may be awarded to the contractor who is deemed responsible in accordance with the FAR, as supplemented, whose quote conforms to the solicitation’s requirements (to include all stated terms, conditions, representations, certifications, and all other information required by 52.212-2 of this solicitation and is judged by an overall assessment of the evaluation factors to represent the most advantageous to the Government. As part of making the assessment, an evaluation will be performed determining whether or not quote exceeds the minimum requirements at an associated price provides the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable to the Government.

(b) Award for All of the Work. The Government intends to award one (1) contract as a result of this solicitation. Quotes received for less than the stated number of items listed in the Price Schedule will be considered ineligible for award. As set forth in FAR 52.212-1 (g), the Government intends to evaluate quotes and award a contract without discussions with contractors. Therefore, the contractor’s initial quote should contain the contractor’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary.

(c) Evaluation Criteria. The Sample in accordance with specifications (WOVEN TERRY, VELOUR) will be evaluated under two (2) evaluating factors: Technical, and Price.

Factor 1 - Experience. The Sample in accordance with specifications (WOVEN TERRY, VELOUR) will receive one of the ratings defined below.

Table 1. Experience Acceptable/Unacceptable Ratings Rating Description Acceptable SAMPLE clearly meets the minimum specifications/requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable SAMPLE does NOT clearly meet the minimum specifications/requirements of the solicitation.

Factor 2 – Price. Price will not be scored or rated. Evaluation of price will be performed using one or more of the price analysis techniques in FAR 13.106-3(a). Through these techniques the Government will determine whether prices are reasonable.

Options. The Government will evaluate quotes for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that a quote is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). As part of price evaluation, the government will evaluate its option to extend services (see FAR Clause 52.217-8) by adding one-half of the contractor's final option period price to the contractor's total price. Thus, the contractor's total price for the purpose of evaluation will include the base period, 1st option, 2nd option, 3rd option, 4th option, and 1/2 of the 4th option. Contractors are not required to enter a price for the six-month period.
