Evaluation of Quotations

The Government will select the quote that represents the best benefit to the Government at a price that can be determined reasonable. Specific information to be included in quotes is detailed below in “Instructions to Offerors–Commercial Items”. 

Following receipt of quotes, the Government will perform a Comparative Evaluation of the services quoted in accordance with FAR 13.106-2(b)(3). The Government will compare quotes to one another to select the quote that is most advantageous to the Government.

Additional information pertaining to Comparative Evaluation is below:

            What Comparative Evaluation is:

•           It is a structured, qualitative, decision-making technique for determining the offer most advantageous to the Government by means of pairwise comparison of multiple (n >1) offers or quotes based on a pass/fail basis relative to predetermined evaluation factors

•           It is an assessment of which response is the “best” as a whole

•           Once one quotation/offer is found acceptable, it is compared side by side to the remaining ones, and the “best” one is chosen

            What Comparative Evaluation is not:

•           It does not individually evaluate quote/offers against specified evaluation factors

•           It does not assign a rating using a color, numerical, or other rating methodology

•           Although the process is not prohibited, it does not require additional evaluation to determine if minimal advantage is worth a minimal or normal price difference

•           It is not a low price technically acceptable (LPTA) or trade-off process

Contractors may submit more than one quote; however, contractors are strongly encouraged to submit their best technical solutions and prices in response to this request for quote. All quotes must be submitted by the deadline to be considered for evaluation.

The Government reserves the right to not select any quotes for award. Additionally, the Government reserves the right to cancel this solicitation at any time without making award.

The Contractor is responsible for all quote preparation costs, which, under no circumstances, will be paid or otherwise provided for by the Government.

Once the Government determines there is/are a contractor(s) that can provide a service that meet(s) the requirements of this request for quote, the Government reserves the right to communicate with only those contractors quoting the best-suited service to address any remaining issues.

The Contracting Officer will evaluate technical capability, price, and past performance.
