The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: Technical ability to meet specifications, past performance and price. Offerors shall provide specifications and other necessary information to demonstrate it meets the requirements of this solicitation (e.g. pictures, websites...). Offerors shall provide name, title and phone number of principal for no less than three prior or current contracts for similar scoped projects performed during the previous three years. To be technically acceptable, the submitting offeror must submit relevant and current past performance in ALL areas noted in this combined synopsis/solicitation. The Government will evaluate each offeror's experience on the basis of its depth and its relevance to the work that will be required under the prospective contract. (b) Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). (c) 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. Addendum to 52.212 2 Evaluation of Commercial Items a. BASIS FOR CONTRACT AWARD: This acquisition will utilize the Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable (LPTA) procedure to make a best value award. A decision on the technical acceptability of each offeror s quotations will be made. For those offerors which are determined to be technically acceptable, award will be made to that vendor with the lowest overall price. While the Government will strive for maximum objectivity, the technical go/no go process, by its nature, is subjective; therefore, professional judgment is implicit throughout the evaluation process. The Government intends to make an award based on the initial quotations. If further questions are required, the contracting officer may contact the offeror or offerors. Award will be made to the responsible offeror whose quotation conforms to all solicitation requirements, such as terms and conditions, representations and certifications, technical requirements, and also provides the best value to the Government based on the results of the evaluation described in paragraph (b) below. (b) The LPTA evaluation process will be accomplished as follows: (1) Technical Acceptability. Each offeror s technical quotations will be evaluated to determine if the offeror provides a sound, compliant approach that meets the requirements of Part 5 of the Performance Work Statement and demonstrates a thorough knowledge and understanding of those requirements. An evaluation rating of Technically Acceptable / Non-Acceptable will be assigned upon completion of the technical quotations evaluation. If an Offeror receives a technical rating of Non-Acceptable they will not be considered for award.
