The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotations:

Factor 1. Nonmanufacturer Qualifying Status

Factor 2. Authorized Distributor Letter

Factor 3. Price

Evaluation Approach. The Government will evaluate quotations using price alone. The lowest priced quote that is able to provide the brand name items identified above will be evaluated to ensure it meets the factors below.

Factor 1. Nonmanufacturer Qualifying Status: The Government will evaluate the responses an SDVOSB offeror provides to the three (3) questions stated in FAR 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors, to verify an SDVOSB s nonmanufacturer qualifying status. If an SDVOSB/VOSB fails to respond yes to all four (3) questions, their quote will be determined ineligible for award.

Factor 2. Authorized Distributor Letter: The offeror shall submit a letter form the manufacturer stating they are authorized to sell the brand name items identified in this RFQ. Failure to submit an Authorized Distributor Letter will result in the offeror quote being determined ineligible for award.

Factor 3. Price: The Government will evaluate the price by adding the total of all line item prices. The Government may use various price analysis techniques and procedures to make a price reasonableness determination. Offers that do not meet or exceed the technical capability or quality of the item offered to the Government requirement, as stated in
