a. Any award(s) resulting from this solicitation will be made using the following cascading order of precedence. Offerors shall clearly record the business size and all business preference categories (i.e. SDVOSB, VOSB, HubZone, WOSB, Large Business, etc.) on the cover page of the offer. As a minimum, this cover page shall also include the following information: Business Name, Address, DUNS Number, Name, Phone number, and email address for the Primary Point of Contact, Tax Identification Number, and your GSA contract number if applicable to this solicitation. This cover page is a mandatory element of your offer as the offers will only be reviewed in accordance with the below criteria:

For the purposes of determining the eligibility of Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) or Veteran Owned Small Business (VOSB) concerns, the offeror must be verified by the Center for Verification and Evaluation both at the time and date set for receipt of offers and at the time of award. Offers from SDVOSB or VOSB that are not registered at the time and date set for receipt of offers, will not receive first consideration as outlined in the addendum to 52.212-2, Evaluation, but will instead be considered for eligibility based on the applicable business size standard established in the System for Award Management Representations and Certifications.Added this language to be more clear on SDVOSB and VOSB consideration.

For all other concerns, the business size standard established in the System for Award Management Representations and Certifications will be used for verification of eligibility.

ii. In accordance with FAR Subpart 19.14 and PL 109-461, the first consideration for award will be made eligible Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) concerns. In order to be considered under subparagraph, the Government must receive two or more offers from eligible SDVOSB concerns at a fair and reasonable price.

iii. If the Government does not receive two or more offers at a fair and reasonable price from eligible SDVOSB concerns, then offers will be considered from eligible Veteran Owned Small Business (VOSB) concerns.

iv. If the Government does not receive two or more offers at a fair and reasonable price from eligible VOSB concerns, then offers will be considered from eligible Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone) concerns.

v. If the Government does not receive two or more offers at a fair and reasonable price from eligible HUBZone concerns, then offers will be considered from eligible Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) concerns. vi. If the Government does not receive two or more offers at a fair and reasonable price from eligible WOSB concerns, then offers will be considered from any other eligible Small Business concernsRevised this section to remove all references to Large Business.

.

b. When there is inadequate competition ay any tier, an otherwise competitive offer from a responsible business concern at that tier will be considered with the eligible offers for the next lower tier. For example, only one competitive offer is received from a SDVOB business. That offer will be included with the offer(s) received from all VOSB businesses. If there is still inadequate competition, the offer from the SDVOSB business will then be included with the SB Offer(s) received; finally, if there is inadequate competition at the SB tier, the SDVOB offer will be included with all responsive offers.

i. If the offer being considered among the offers in the next lower tier is also from an eligible SDVOSB concern, then that offer shall receive a 10% price evaluation preference in accordance with VAAR clause 852.215-70.

ii. If the offer being considered among the offers in the next lower tier is also from an eligible VOSB concern, then that offer shall receive a 5% price evaluation preference in accordance with VAAR clause 852.215-70.

c. Award will be made to the offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered.

d. Pricing will be firm fixed price (FFP) for each line item identified.
