(ix) The provision at FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation -- Commercial Items (Oct 2014), applies to this acquisition:  

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: 

BASIS FOR AWARD: The Contracting Officer may only award a contract to a responsive, responsible Offeror whose proposal conforms to the requirements of this solicitation and offers the best overall value to the Government. Any Offeror's proposal that merely offers to perform work according to the terms of the solicitation or fails to present more than a statement indicating its capability to comply with the terms without support and elaboration as specified in the instructions will be rendered non-responsive.

The evaluation shall be conducted utilizing Simplified Acquisition Procedures. In accordance with FAR 13.106-2(b)(3), formal evaluation plans and establishing a competitive range, conducting discussions, and scoring quotations or offers are not required. The Contracting Officer intends to conduct comparative evaluations of offers. The Government also intends to evaluate responses and award without discussions. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary.

The Factors that shall be used to determine Best Value are Technical and Price

Non-price factors are approximately equal in importance as price. As such, the Government may award to other than the lowest price or most highly evaluated technical proposal.

These factors are further described below:

Technical:

a. The Offeror shall provide documentation of their equipment they plan to provide.  Those that provide informational sheets that meet the requirements of the PWS will be acceptable, Offeror’s that only state they will meet the requirements of the PWS will be rated lower than those that provide detailed information with quantities of their proposed equipment. Those that provide hand sanitizing stations will be rated higher than those with wash stations.

b. The Offeror shall provide their plan on cleaning procedures.  Those offeror’s that provide site specific information for the cleaning as well as detailed information on their on-call procedures will be rated higher than those that only state they will meet the requirements of the PWS.  Those offeror’s whose on-call plan include exact personal and numbers to call will be rated higher than others who do not include the information.

c. The Offeror shall provide  a plan on how they intend to maintain adequate stock.  Offerors who provide details on how, how much, and type of inventory proposed will be rated higher than those who state they will meet the requirements of the PWS.

Price:

The Government will evaluate the pricing proposed by the Offeror for fairness and reasonableness based upon pricing received from other Offerors, as well as historical information or other means as determined necessary.
