Amendment to RFQ W91YTZ-21-Q-0145 Addendum to 52.212-2 Evaluation Commercial Items is added.

(b) 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). Given that FAR Clause 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, provides that the Government may require continued performance of any services within the limits and at the rates specified in the contract (i.e., the rates in effect when the Option to Extend Services clause is exercised), for purposes of evaluating this option, the contracting officer will consider the prices submitted for each period of performance, since those would be the binding prices should this option be exercised. Evaluation of this option shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option.
