ADDENDUM FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation—Commercial Products and Commercial Services (Nov 2021)

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

1. Price
2. Technical Capability/Approach
3. Past Performance

Technical and past performance, when combined, are approximately equal to price.

(b) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer's specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.

(c) Offerors shall demonstrate their Technical Capability and Approach by providing a detailed narrative that directly addresses their understanding of the PWS requirements and their proposed solution. Mere restatement of the PWS will be considered insufficient. Offerors shall provide specific, detailed information on how they will meet or exceed the following technical requirements in the Performance Work Statement.  Offeror shall also include evidence of coordination [such as Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs) or Memoranda of Agreement (MOAs)] with local law enforcement or municipalities as part of the Technical Volume. If coordination has not been processed, offerors may submit draft MOUs/MOAs (or other similar documentation) as long as they also submit evidence of successfully completing similar coordination in the past.  Submission of completed MOUs/MOAs will be  viewed more favorable.   

(d) BASIS FOR CONTRACT AWARD: Three factors will be used to evaluate offerors’ quotes: Overall total price, technical capability/acceptability, and past performance. The contracting officer will award the contract to the best overall offeror, based upon an integrated assessment of price and acceptable technical factors. The assessment shall include a best value assessment between the price, technical, and past performance among the quotes that conform to FAR 52.212-2, and possess acceptable technical capabilities. The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror’s initial offer should contain the offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer as necessary. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received
