AWARD CRITERIA: 52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT 2014) Proposals that do not respond to all requirements in the solicitation may be rejected without further evaluation, deliberation, or discussion. The Government may reject any proposal that is evaluated to be significantly not compliant with the solicitation requirements, or reflects a failure to comprehend the complexity and risks of the work to be performed. The Government reserves the right to award without discussions with Offerors. (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 and whose offer is the Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable (LPTA). Award will be made on the basis of the lowest evaluated price of proposals meeting or exceeding the acceptability standards for non-price factors. The quote with the lowest evaluated price will be evaluated for technical acceptability. Only if that quote is found to be technically unacceptable will the evaluation proceed to the quote with the next lowest evaluated price. This process will continue until the lowest priced technically acceptable quote is found. The following factors shall be used to evaluate technical acceptability of the lowest priced offeror: 1. TECHNICAL AND MANAGEMENT APPROACH (non-price) The Offeror must meet the requirements of the Statement of Work (SOW). 2. PAST PERFORMANCE (non-price) Offerors will be evaluated on their recent (within the past 3 years) performance of relevant requirements as described in the SOW. Offerors should provide three (3) references for the same or similar work performed for Federal, State, and local government and private clients. An Offeror may also provide information on problems encountered on the identified projects and the offer's corrective actions. The Government will consider this information, as well as information obtained from any other sources, when evaluating the offeror's past performance. An offeror will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance if the offeror has no record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available. 3. PRICE A comparison of proposal pricing received in response to the solicitation will be made in order to make a determination of fair and reasonable pricing in accordance with the Firm Fixed Price nature of this acquisition action. (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. 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. The Government reserves the right to award without discussions with Offerors.
