Electronic quotations are preferred over paper responses, unless other arrangements have been made. Send completed quotation to Tina Keimig, tina.l.keimig@usace.army.mil

(2) The time specified in the solicitation for receipt of quotations;

(3) The name, address, and telephone number of the quoter;

Unless otherwise specified in this solicitation, these samples shall be submitted at no expense to the Government, and returned at the sender’s request and expense, unless they are destroyed during testing.

(2) Any quotation received at the Government office designated in the solicitation after the exact time specified for receipt of quotations is late and will not be considered unless it is received before purchase order issuance and the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late quotation would not unduly delay the acquisition.

(3) If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal Government processes so that quotations cannot be received at the Government office designated for receipt of quotations by the exact time specified in the solicitation, and urgent Government requirements preclude amendment of the solicitation or other notice of an extension of the closing date, the time specified for receipt of quotations will be deemed to be extended to the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day on which normal Government processes resume.

(g) Issuance of purchase order. Quotations should contain the quoter’s best technical and price terms. The Contracting Officer may reject any or all quotations. The Contracting Officer may issue a purchase order to other than the quoter with the lowest priced quotation. After the evaluation of quotations, the Contracting Officer may negotiate final terms with one or more quoters of the Government’s choice before issuing any purchase order. The Contracting Officer will not negotiate with any quoters other than those of the Government’s choice and will not use the formal source selection procedures described in FAR part 15.

(h) Multiple purchase orders. The Government may issue a purchase order for any item or group of items of a quotation, unless the quoter qualifies the quotation by specific limitations. Unless otherwise provided in the Schedule, quotations may not be submitted for quantities less than those specified. The Government reserves the right to issue a purchase order for a quantity less than the quantity quoted, at the unit prices quoted, unless the quoter specifies otherwise in the quotation.

52.212-2 ADDENDUM; EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible quoter whose quote conforming to the solicitation will the best value to the Government. Quotations will be evaluated using the following factors:

1. Previous Experience/Past Performance – The quoter shall provide three (3) projects completed in the last three (3) years. These references need to be equal to or similar in scope of this requirement. The contractor shall provide dates and pertinent information to demonstrate how they are comparable to this requirement in size and complexity. The contractor shall include points of contact, titles, telephone numbers, and email addresses (if available) for all references. Proposals with strong past performance ratings with positive recommendations will receive more favorable evaluations.

2. Price – The quote shall be inclusive of all costs to perform the work specified in the PWS. The supplemental bid sheet shall be filled out.

Evaluation Previous Experience and Past Performance are considered to be more important than price with award being made to the firm that provides the best value to the Government.

(b) 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).

For the purpose of the award of the contract, the Government intends to evaluate the option to extend services, provided under FAR 52.217-8, as follows:

The evaluation will consider the possibility that the option can be exercised at any time, and can be exercised in increments of one to six months, but for no more than a total of six months during the life of the contract. The evaluation will assume that the prices for any option exercised under FAR 52.217-8 will be at the same rates as those in effect under the contract. The evaluation will therefore assume that the addition of the price or prices of any possible extension or extensions under FAR 52.217-8 to the total price for the basic requirement and the total price for the priced options has the same effect on the total price of all quotations relative to each other, and will not affect the ranking of proposals based on price, unless, after reviewing the quotations, the Government determines that there is a basis for finding otherwise. This evaluation will not obligate the Government to exercise any option under FAR 52.217-8.
