The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers in descending order of importance: i. Technical - Award will be made to the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable quote . The Government intends to make a single Firm Fixed Price Award to satisfy this requirement. Award will be based on the initial evaluation of quotes received in response to the solicitation. Therefore, quoters are cautioned that their initial quotes should contain their best terms from a technical and price standpoint. Evaluation of quotes will be conducted on a lowest-priced, technically acceptable basis. All quotes will be evaluated first on price. The lowest priced quote will be evaluated for technical acceptability on an acceptable/unacceptable basis. If the lowest priced quote is found to be technically acceptable, then no further evaluations will be conducted and award will be made. If the lowest priced quote is not technically acceptable, the next lowest priced offer will be evaluated, and so on until a technically acceptable quote is found. ii. Price -All line items will be reviewed for price reasonableness. All quotes submitted shall be the Contractor's Best Pricing. Submitted quotes must reflect unit prices, extended amounts, and an overall order total. (b) 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. 52.212-5 CONTRACT TERMS AND CONDITIONS REQUIRED TO IMPLEMENT STATUTES OR EXECUTIVE ORDERS- COMMERCIAL ITEMS (SEP 2013) (a) The Contractor shall comply with the following Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clauses, which are incorporated in this contract by reference, to implement provisions of law or Executive orders applicable to acquisitions of commercial items: (1) 52.222-50, Combating Trafficking in Persons (Feb 2009) (22 U.S.C. 7104(g)). ___Alternate I (Aug 2007) of 52.222-50 (22 U.S.C. 7104(g)).
