Individual Contracts may be awarded for one or more of the CLINS on the solicitation for the items or combinations of items that result in the lowest aggregate cost to the Government. Quotes must include prices for the line item/items that the offeror is bidding for so that quotes may be properly evaluated. Failure to do so shall be cause for the offeror to be considered non-responsive. Award shall be made to that of the responsive, responsible offeror whose total aggregate price is the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable.  

2.  The Government intends to award a contract without discussions with respective offerors, so offerors should submit their best offer initially. The Government, however, reserves the right to conduct discussions if deemed in its best interest.

     A. PRICE:

In the event there is a difference between a unit price and the total CLIN amount, the unit price will be held as the intended price multiplied by the number of units.  If the offeror shows only the total amount but fails to submit a unit price, the total CLIN amount divided by the quantity will be held as the intended price. 
 
3. Unbalanced Pricing. Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable  total evaluated price, the price of one or more line items is significantly over or understated as indicated by the application of cost or price analysis techniques. Offerors shall provide documentation, including data, calculations and supporting rationale, for any apparent unbalanced pricing which will be used to determine if the proposed prices are balanced.
