BASIS FOR CONTRACT AWARD: a. Basis for Contract Award

This is a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) award decision conducted in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 15, Contracting by Negotiation, as supplemented by the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), and the Air Force Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (AFFARS).  These regulations are available electronically at the Air Force (AF) FARSite, http://farsite.hill.af.mil.  The Government will select the proposal with the lowest evaluated price from among those meeting the acceptability standards for non-price factors.  A contract may be awarded to the offeror who is deemed responsible in accordance with the FAR Part 9.1, as supplemented, whose quote conforms to the solicitation's requirements (to include all stated terms, conditions, representations, certifications, and all other information required by this solicitation) and is judged to represent the lowest price technically acceptable quote. 

 

b. Solicitation Requirements, Terms and Conditions

Offerors are required to meet all solicitation requirements, such as terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements, in addition to those identified as factors or subfactors.  Failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the solicitation may result in the offeror being ineligible for award.  Offerors must clearly identify any exception to the solicitation terms and conditions and must provide complete supporting rationale.  The Government reserves the right to determine any such exceptions unacceptable.

 

c. Technical Factor

The Government's technical evaluation team shall evaluate the technical proposals on an acceptable or unacceptable basis.  An  "Unacceptable" rating will render the entire quote unacceptable and, therefore, unawardable.  Technically acceptable is defined having successfully provided these services within the last five years.  Offerors must provide documentation of this technical performance.  Offerors who fail to provide this documentation will render their quote unacceptable.
