EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (JAN 1999) (FAR 52.212-2) (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: EVALUATION FACTORS Factor 1 ? Past Performance Factor 2 ? Price Factor 1 and factor 2 are equally important. Factor 1 ? PAST PERFORMANCE During the source selection process, the Government will assess the offeror's past performance in the evaluation for contract award. Accordingly, each offeror is required to submit a list of up to five of its most recent contracts within the past three years, either completed or on-going, for the same/similar products or services. It is preferred that these contracts be with U.S. Government customers, but contracts with other commercial concerns are also acceptable. Offerors are authorized to provide information relative to any problems encountered on the identified contracts and any corrective actions taken by the offeror. The Source Selection Authority (SSA)/Contracting Officer will evaluate the offeror's past performance based upon the information furnished by the offeror and/or other information obtained by the Contracting Officer. The Contracting Officer is not responsible for locating or securing any information not furnished with the offer. The SSA/Contracting Officer may, however, utilize all available information, including information not provided by the offeror, in the past performance evaluation. The Government reserves the right to review less than all information submitted, and to only analyze sufficient information to make a reasonable determination of each offeror?s past performance rating. Past performance is assessed by the SSA/Contracting Officer and is assigned a narrative rating in the evaluation. Each offeror will be given an adjectival rating on past performance: highly favorable, favorable, neither favorable nor unfavorable, unfavorable, highly unfavorable, or no same or similar history. Offerors who do not have same or similar past performance information reasonably available to the Contracting Officer will not be rated either favorable or unfavorable. The Government reserves the right to award to other than the lowest priced offer as set forth elsewhere in the solicitation. In addition, the Government may accept other than the lowest priced offer if doing so would result in greater value to the Government in terms of technical performance, quality, reliability, life cycle cost, or lower overall program risk. As a part of the past performance evaluation, the Government will assess the offeror's previous compliance with the requirements of FAR 52.! 219-8 and 52.219-9 as applicable. Factor 2 ? PRICE EVALUATION Price will not be rated but will be considered in determining the ?best value? to the Government. The best value determination may result in the Government being willing to pay a premium for higher technical capability. The price becomes more important as the degree of equality increases between offers. The Government reserves the right to make an award to other than the lowest priced offeror or to the offeror with the highest adjectival technical score if the Contracting Officer determines that to do so would result in the greatest value to the Government. 52.212-4 TAILORING -- The following paragraphs are hereby added to the clause: (o) Warranty. The contractor shall extend to the Government the full coverage of any standard commercial warranty normally offered in a similar commercial sale, provided such warranty is available at no additional cost to the Government.
