The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: BASIS OF AWARD 1) Award will be based on the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable meaning award will be made to the lowest evaluated price quotation meeting or exceeding the acceptability of standards for non-cost factors. 2) Initially offers shall be ranked according to price, including any option prices if applicable. An offeror's proposed prices will be determined by multiplying the quantities identified in Section B by the proposed unit price for each Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) to confirm the extended amount for each. The extended amounts will be added together to determine the total evaluated price. The price evaluation will document the reasonableness and affordability of the proposed total evaluated price. After the cursory review is performed, the government will start evaluation with the lowest price offeror, to determine technical acceptability using the submittals in section 4 of the PWS. If the lowest priced evaluated offer is judged to be technically acceptable and is determined to be responsible, that offer represents the best value for the government and the evaluation process stops at this point. Award shall be made to that offeror without further consideration of any other offeror. If the lowest priced offeror is not judged to be technically acceptable, the next lowest priced offeror will be evaluated and the process will1) continue (in order by price) until an offeror is judged to be technically acceptable or until all offerors are evaluated. The Contracting Officer shall then make an integrated assessment best value award decision. Price Technical Approach (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.
