High degree of risk. 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. The major areas of proposal evaluation are (a Technical (b) Past Performance and (c) Price. The factors will be evaluated in compliance with the following: FACTOR 1: Technical/Management: (Greatest Importance) � Demonstrate adequacy and relevance of expertise, experience and other technical personnel for performing all the requirements of the work statement � Demonstrate experience of contractor and technical staff for planning, managing, and directing the requirement work statement. � Experience of proposed contractor to conduct a project of comparable size and complexity � Management ability to provide technical assistance and oversight � Demonstrate adequacy, relevance, and appropriateness of the offerors experience in managing consultants, collaborators, and subcontractors.

FACTOR 3: Price (Least Important) � Price proposals will be analyzed for errors, mistakes, and omissions � Price proposal will be analyzed and evaluated for unbalanced offers � Price proposal will be analyzed to ensure burdened prices are included (Schedule) � The price proposal will be evaluated to determine realistic cost to the Government, such as comparing base period pricing will option years(s) pricing � A price analysis will be performed on all proposals by comparing competing offers prices to ensure th e price is fair and reasonable. For the purposes of evaluating competing proposals, it may become necessary to perform a price-technical tradeoff and for comparison purposes only, the totals in each Amount column for each CLIN for the base and all optio n years will be added to reach a total evaluated price for each offer. This sum will be used in the evaluation process only for the purpose of comparing price proposals and does not commit the Government to order any set amounts or to exercise any option( s). 52.212-5 CONTRACT TERMS AND CONDITIONS REQUIRED TO IMPLEMENT STATUTES OR EXECUTIVE ORDERS--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (FEB 2006) (a) The Contractor shall comply with the following Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clauses, which are incorporated in this contract by reference, to implement provisions of law or Executive orders applicable to acquisitions of commercial items: (1) 52.233-3, Protest After Award (AUG 1996) (31 U.S.C. 3553).
