Technical Capability, 2.) Price. The evaluation of these factors will utilize an award basis that results in an award to the lowest priced technically acceptable (LPTA) quotation. Quotes that do not meet the stated minimum technical specifications will be deemed technically unacceptable, and therefore not considered for award. Finally, quotations that are incomplete and/or are determined to be priced unreasonably too high or too low, may not be selected for award. Therefore, quotations should contain the vendor's best terms, from a price, technical-specification standpoint. Under the LPTA source selection process, trade-offs are not permitted, proposals are evaluated for acceptability but not ranked using the non-price factors. The Government intends to evaluate quotations and award a contract without exchanges or communications and therefore, quotations should contain the vendor's best terms, from a price, technical-specification. (b) Evaluation: Evaluation factors required under 52.212-1 will be evaluated by the Government as follows; i. Technical: The government will evaluate technical proposals on a pass/fail-basis, assigning ratings of acceptable, or unacceptable. An unacceptable rating will result in an unacceptable rating for this Technical Capability primary factor. Accordingly, under the LPTA source selection approach, vendors who receive an unacceptable rating for this factor will not be considered for award. Technical ratings will be evaluated entailing a comparison of quoted specifications with relation to specifications of the government's requirements, and respective salient characteristics of the appliance type. If the associated specifications of any quoted item do not meet the Government's stated minimum specification, may result in a vendor's entire quotation being ineligible for award. The Government reserves the right to make multiple awards as a result of this solicitation. As a result of the government's evaluation of the aforementioned Technical Capability a determination of acceptable or unacceptable will be assigned using the following ratings and descriptions: Technical Capability Ratings Rating Description Acceptable Proposal clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation. Unacceptable Proposal does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation. ii. Price: To evaluate price reasonableness and affordability, an initial screening of quotations will be performed to compare pricing to both Government and commercial web-based databases, and with comparison to the Government's estimate, and in relation to the product quoted. Quotations that are determined to be priced unreasonably, as either too high or too low, may not be selected for award. (c) Award Determination: As a result of the Government's aforementioned evaluation, only those vendors whose proposals are determined to be technically acceptable will be considered for award. Of those vendors found technically acceptable award will be made to the lowest priced offeror whose price is determined reasonable and affordable. **Quoted pricing, with comparison to the Government's estimated budget, that is determined either too high or too low, may result in such quotation not being considered for award.** A written notice of award or acceptance of a quotation mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful vendor within the time for acceptance specified in the quotation, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the vendor's specified expiration time, the Government may accept a quotation (or part of a quotation), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
