Price Technical acceptability will be determined by reviewing the technical certifications submitted for each item to ensure that all of the technical requirements identified are met. Technical acceptability will be defined as follows: Technical Evaluation Ratings Rating Description Acceptable Quote meets all of the requirements identified. Unacceptable Quote does not meet all of the requirements identified. Contractors who fail to possess acceptable technical capability will not be considered for award and the other elements of their quotation will not be evaluated. Price: The vendor's proposed price will be evaluated on the basis of price reasonableness. All prices must be considered fair and reasonable as determined by the Government. For purposes of award amongst all of the technically acceptable quotations, delivery schedule will be considered to be of equal importance when compared to price. NOTE: Quotations determined to be technically unacceptable shall not be further evaluated for award. Of the technically acceptable quotations, the Government reserves the right to award to other than low based upon a selection determined to be the best value to the Government, price and other factors considered. Although price is considered to be equal in importance to delivery, it has the potential to become more significant during the evaluation process. The importance of price will increase as the degree of equity in a respondent's non-cost quotations rise. The importance of price will also increase when a quotation's price is so significantly high as to diminish the value to the Government that might have been gained under the other aspects of the quotation. If at any point in the evaluation all respondents are determined to have submitted equal or generally equivalent non-cost quotations, price may become the factor in determining the contractor selected for award. The quoted prices of all technically acceptable items will be evaluated and the contracting officer shall assume, for the purpose of making multiple awards, that $500 would be the administrative cost to the Government for issuing and administering each contract awarded under this Request for Quotations. Individual awards shall be for the items or combinations of items that result in the lowest aggregate cost to the Government, including the assumed administrative costs. 52.204-7 System for Award Management OCT 2018 52.204-13 System for Award Management Maintenance OCT 2018 52.204-16 Commercial and Government Entity Code Reporting AUG 2020 52.204-18 Commercial and Government Entity Code Maintenance AUG 2020 52.204-22 Alternate Line Item Proposal.
