Selection shall be made on a lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA) basis. The Government intends to award a contract without discussions with respective offerors. The Government, however, reserves the right to conduct discussions if deemed in its best interest. The following evaluation factors will be used to evaluate each proposal. The relative importance of each factor is as follows: Technical submission and Price are listed in descending order of their importance with Factor 1(Technical Submission) being considered significantly more important than Factor 2 (Price). Factor 1- TECHNICAL ACCEPTABILITY The Government will evaluate offers to determine if the offer meets the requirements of the PWS to determine technical acceptability. Offers determined to be unacceptable will not be evaluated further. Adjectival Rating - Description Acceptable - The proposal meets the requirements of the PWS and solicitation. Unacceptable - The proposal does not meet the requirements of the PWS and the solicitation. Factor 2 - PRICE Proposals shall include prices for each line item listed. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all Contract Line Item Numbers (CLIN). In the event there is a difference between a unit price and the total CLIN amount, the unit price will be held as the intended price multiplied by the number of units. If the offeror shows only the total amount but fails to submit a unit price, the total CLIN amount divided by the quantity will be held as the intended price. Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total evaluated price, one or more contract line items is significantly overstated or understated as indicated by the application of cost or price analysis techniques. A proposal may be rejected if the Contracting Officer determines that the lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government.
