Award will be made on the basis of the low price technically acceptable (LPTA) quote. If any one of the salient characteristic is rated Unacceptable, your quote will no longer be considered for contract award. The following factors shall be used to evaluate all quotes: Factor I - Technical. The vendors quote shall show compliance with the four salient characteristics in the table below: Salient Characteristics Standard Standard Acceptable Unacceptable 1. Offered table must be 220V/50Hz 2. Offered table must have heated upholstery/seat and lumbar and heated drawer 3. Offered table must provide barrier free access and provide a minimum of 400 lbs patient weight capacity. 4. Offered table must provide 18 inch to 37 inch seat height adjustment Note: If an offer is determined unacceptable, the evaluator shall explain why. Factor II Price. The Government will select the quote that is based upon the lowest evaluated price, technically acceptable quote. All CLINs shall have been priced by the offeror. If the offeror failed to price all CLINs, the quote will not be considered for award. EVALUATION STANDARDS. The offerors technical quote will be evaluated using the following standards for a final rating: ACCEPTABLE: A quote that satisfies all of the Governments requirements with minimal detail to indicate feasibility of the approach and shows minimal understanding of the problems, with an overall moderate to high degree of risk in meeting the Governments requirements. UNACCEPTABLE: A quote that contains a major error(s), omission(s) or deficiency(ies) that indicates a lack of understanding of the problems or an approach that cannot be expected to meet requirements or involves a very high risk; and none of these conditions can be corrected without a major rewrite or revision of the quote. (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 offers 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. (End of provision) SPECIAL NOTE: All offerors must be registered in the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) prior to award, and lack of registration shall make an offer ineligible for award. Offerors may obtain information on registration and annual confirmation requirements by calling +1 (555) 000-0000 or via Internet at http://www.ccr.gov/.
