The following addenda have been attached to this provision: NONE. (ix) The provision at FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation - Commercial Items is applicable to this acquisition. The specific evaluation criteria to be included in paragraph (a) of that provision are as follows: The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforms to the solicitation and will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: Technical, Past Performance and Price. The Technical element of the evaluation will be a determination as to whether the proposed product meets the performance characteristics and specifications in the solicitation. In addition, the technical element of the evaluation will be based upon how much light sensitivity the offered camera provides, with more light sensitivity being more valuable to the Government's mission. The Government reserves the right to select an offer that provides the best value with respect to light sensitivity versus price. The Technical element of the evaluation shall be based solely on information furnished by the vendor. The Government is not responsible for locating or securing any information, which is not identified in the proposal. To ensure sufficient information is available, vendors must furnish as part of their proposal all descriptive material (such as cuts, illustrations, drawings, or other information) necessary for the Government to determine whether the product meets the performance characteristics and specifications of the requirement. If the offeror proposes to modify a product so as to conform to the requirement of this solicitation, the offeror shall include a clear description of such proposed modifications and clearly mark any descriptive materials to show modifications. Meeting all of the performance characteristics in the Salient Characteristics is significantly more important than the level of light sensitivity of the camera. Past performance will be evaluated based on information provided by the offeror as to actual sales of the proposed product to industry or Government agencies. Past performance will consider the ability of the offeror to meet technical specifications, delivery schedules (with warranty fulfillment and maintenance reputation included as applicable). Offerors shall include three (3) records of sales from the previous 12 months. Offerors shall identify a point of contact for each sale by providing a name and telephone number. Price will be evaluated based on the total proposed price, including options, (if any). Technical (inclusive of light sensitivity) and past performance are of equal importance and when combined are significantly more important than price. The Government reserves the right to award to other than the lowest price and to award without discussions.
