FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation-Commercial Items (Nov 2021)
(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: Relevant Experience, Past Performance and Price
(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.

Evaluation Process.
Evaluation is an assessment of the quote and of the quoter¿s ability to perform the prospective contract successfully. Evaluation and award will be conducted using simplified acquisition procedures described in FAR Part 13 and will be solely based on the quote and its associated documents. Review below in the Quote Submission¿ paragraph to ensure your quote is complete.
The government will award a single contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose quote conforming to the solicitation represents the best value to the Government, price and other factors considered. The Government may elect to accept other than the lowest-priced quote when the perceived benefits of a higher-priced quote merit the additional costs.
Evaluation Factors. All quoters submitting a price quotation must provide information in response to the Technical Evaluation criteria listed below. The NPS will assess each quote based on the following factors:
Evaluation factor 1 - Past Performance:
The Government will evaluate the degree to which the quoter successfully performed past projects similar in scope and complexity to the project detailed in this solicitation within the last five (3) years and satisfied past customers, using the quoter¿s provided references. The areas of evaluation include quality, efficiency and effectiveness, adherence to terms and conditions of contract, timeliness, cooperativeness, commitment to customer satisfaction, and business relations. Past performance information from other sources, including the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), may also be utilized in the determination of the past performance record. In the case of a quoter without a record of past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the quoter will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance.
Evaluation factor 2: Price
The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by comparing the total price of the initial year and performing a price analysis of the base and option periods. 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).
The purpose of this Amendment P00001 is to attach the "Statement of Work Rock Supply". There are no other changes.
