Factor 1 shall be evaluated on a “go/no go” basis. If a quote has been determined to be a “go” on Factor 1, then Factor 2 will be evaluated to determine if the offeror’s past performance history is satisfactory. An offeror who has submitted a technically acceptable quote and who has been found to have a satisfactory past performance history will then have its quote evaluated for the lowest price. Factor 1 – Technical capability of the products offered to meet the Government’s requirement The minimum criteria for acceptability for this factor shall be the submission of descriptive literature that clearly indicates what the offeror is proposing and will be providing all products in accordance with the stated characteristics in the Scope of Work (SOW). “Descriptive literature” means information (e.g., cuts, illustrations, drawings and brochures) that is submitted as part of a quote.
