The Government anticipates and intends to make MULTIPLE awards based on pricing per line

Awards will be made to the responsible Quoter(s) whose quote conforms to the requirements and is determined to provide the best value to the Government, considering the evaluation factors outlined below.

(1) Price - The government will evaluate the Quoter’s proposed price to ensure it is fair and

reasonable;

(2) Past Performance – Go/No-Go Evaluation

The Government will evaluate the Offeror’s past performance on a Go/No-Go basis. The

assessment will be based on the following criteria:

• Timeliness of Deliveries: The Offeror must demonstrate a consistent record of on-time

deliveries. Documented instances of late deliveries, including Contractor Performance

Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) evaluations and communications with other Contracting

Officers, will be reviewed. A history of substantial delivery delays will result in a "No-Go"

determination.

• Order Accuracy and Completeness: The Offeror must show a track record of delivering

complete and accurate orders. Evidence of recurring issues such as missing or incorrect items—

supported by customer complaints, returns, or input from other Contracting Officers—will be

considered. A pattern of incomplete or inaccurate deliveries will result in a "No-Go"

determination.

Only Offerors receiving a "Go" rating under this factor will be considered eligible for award.
