Addenda to 52.212-2, Evaluation-Commercial Items (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: i) Adherence to Product Specification ii) Price (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 will award a single Firm Fixed Price contract based on the Offeror whose quote, conforming to the specifications named in the Product Specification, will be the lowest price technically acceptable. To receive consideration for award, a rating of no less than "Acceptable" must be achieved for Factor I, (Adherence to Product Specification). The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with Offerors. Therefore, the Offeror's initial offer should contain the Offeror's best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received. EVALUATION SUMMARY: FACTOR I. - ADHERENCE TO PRODUCT SPECIFICATION-The Offeror shall submit evidence that acknowledges the features and tasks identified in the Product Specification to allow the Government to make a sufficient determination that the Offeror is capable of delivering the required items and performing the work. The Government will evaluate the Offeror's understanding of the work to be performed in accordance with the information outlined in the Product Specification. FACTOR II. - PRICE - The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total of all CLIN prices, including all options to ensure that pricing is not unbalanced. Price will be evaluated for completeness and reasonableness using the techniques in FAR 15.404-1(b) (2). No adjectival ratings will be used to evaluate Price. The Offeror shall provide a document outlining their pricing using the contract line items listed above. Pricing must be provided separately from your proposal. ADJECTIVAL RATINGS: Quotes will be adjectivally rated against each of the evaluation factors set forth in this solicitation. Adjectival ratings for Factor I, Adherence to Product Specification follows. No adjectival ratings will be used to evaluate Factor II, Price. Factor I- Adherence to Product Specification will be rated using the following Adjectival Scale: Acceptable-The proposal demonstrates an approach which is capable of meeting all requirements and objectives. The approach includes strengths which significantly outweigh the weaknesses. The risk of unsuccessful performance is at least moderate, as the proposal solutions are feasible and practical. These solutions are further considered to reflect moderate risk in that they are clear and precise, fully supported, and demonstrate an understanding of the requirement. Unacceptable- The proposal demonstrates an approach which, based on a very high risk, will very likely not be capable of meeting all requirements and objectives. This approach has numerous weaknesses which outweigh the strengths. The risk of unsuccessful performance is very high as the proposal contains solutions which are not feasible and practical. The solutions are further considered to reflect very high risk in that they lack clarity or precision, are unsupported, and do not demonstrate a complete understanding of the requirement. Offerors must include a completed copy of the provision at 52.212-3, Offeror Representations and Certifications-Commercial Items, with your offer. Quotes must be received by Mindy Smith, Contract Specialist, no later than 8:00 AM (EST) on June 4, 2012. Quotes will be accepted by e-mail at smith.mindy@dol.gov.
