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

(i) Factor I - Technical;

a. Subfactor A - Qualifications

b. Subfactor B – Experience

(ii) Factor II - Price

The basis for award is Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA).

(b) A rating of no less than “Acceptable” must be achieved for all non-price factors and sub-factors. Receiving a rating of “Unacceptable” in any of the non-price evaluation factors and sub-factors as listed above will result in a rating of “Unacceptable". The non-price evaluation will consist only of determining the acceptability of each quote.

Quotes will not be ranked based on the acceptability evaluation.

(c) The Government intends to evaluate quotes and award a contract without clarifications. Therefore, each initial quote should contain the offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct clarifications if determined necessary by the Contracting Officer.

(d) 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. This amount will be the total evaluated price. 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.

(e) A written notice of award or acceptance of a quote, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the quote, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the quote's specified expiration time, the Government may accept a quote (or part of a quote), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.

2. Price Factor:

After determination of technical acceptability, each quote will be evaluated and award made to the lowest Total Evaluated Price (TEP) quote.
