52.212-2 ADDENDUM

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 quotes meeting or exceeding the acceptability standards for non-cost factors. Award maybe 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. Paragraph (a) is hereby supplemented with the following:

Basis of Award - This solicitation will use lowest price technically acceptable evaluation procedures to make a best value award decision. Award will be made to the responsible offeror that provides the lowest price and a technically acceptable offer.

Evaluation Factors. The following factors will be evaluated:

FACTOR 1. Technical Merit. Technical merit ratings reflect the Government’s confidence in each offeror’s ability, as demonstrated in its quote, to perform the requirements stated in the solicitation. In evaluating the quoted risk, the Government will make an independent judgment of the probability of success, the impact of failure and the alternatives available to meet the requirements.

Technical Capability reflects the Government’s confidence in each offeror’s ability, as demonstrated in its offer, to provide the requirements as stated in this solicitation. The Government will evaluate whether the offeror has demonstrated that it can meet the minimum requirements in the Statement Of Work. Offers that do not demonstrate that it can meet the minimum requirements will not be considered further for award.

The following adjectival ratings will be used in evaluating each offeror’s technical offer.

Rating Description:

Acceptable Quote clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Quote does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Note: Any offeror receiving a rating of “Unacceptable” for Technical Capability will no longer be considered for award.

FACTOR 2. Price. Price will be evaluated separately from the technical factors and will be evaluated for fairness and reasonability in terms of the Government’s requirement. Price must be determined to be fair and reasonable.

Offerors' quote will be evaluated to determine the price is fair and reasonable in accordance with FAR 12.209.

Pricing will be evaluated using various price analysis techniques and procedures similar to those listed in FAR 15.404- 1(b) including, but not limited to, comparison of prices received in response to the solicitation with a comparison to the Independent Government Estimate (IGE).

(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 contract 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.
