http://www.farsite.hill.af.mil/ http://www.arnet.gov/far

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.

The Government will award a Firm Fixed Price contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible Offer whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be the most advantageous for the Government, price and other factors considered. In order to be considered for award, an Offeror must receive an Acceptable rating in all factors. The following factors shall be used to evaluate:

Technical and Price

Award will be made based on lowest price, technically acceptable proposal.

(a) Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced.

Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

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

FACTOR: 1 TECHNICAL

Reagents - Provide in writing, documentation of how your kits meets the salient characteristics.

UNACCEPTABLE: A technical proposal that fails to demonstrate it can meet one or more requirements will be determined unacceptable.
