The information submitted conflicts with the requirements herein, and the proposed services do not meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation. Factor II - Past Performance: The Government will evaluate the Quoter's past performance to assess the Quoter's probability of success performance of the requirements. This assessment is based on the Quoter's record of relevant and recent past performance information that pertains to the services outlined in the solicitation requirements. Past performance will be rated on an acceptable or unacceptable basis in accordance with the ratings and description outlined in the table below: Past Performance Evaluation Ratings: Rating Description Acceptable Based on the Quoter's performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the Quoter will successfully perform the required effort, or the Quoter's performance record is unknown.

Therefore, the Quoter shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, "unknown" shall be considered "acceptable." If the Contracting Officer determines that a vendor's Past Performance is "unacceptable," that vendor's entire submittal will no longer be considered for further competition or award. Factor III - Price - Quotes will be evaluated on the basis of price reasonableness in accordance with FAR 13.106-3 (a). Vendors responding to this solicitation are advised that, prior to award, the Government may request vendors to submit additional information/data to support price reasonableness such as copies of paid invoices for the same or similar services, sales history for the same or similar services, price list with effective date and/or copies of catalog pages along with any applicable discounts. Failure to submit the requested information may result in disqualification of the submitted 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 a quote mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful Quoter within the time for acceptance specified in the quote, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the quote's specified expiration time, the Government may accept a quote (or part of a quote), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
