(End of Provision) FAR 52.212-2 -- Evaluation -- Commercial Items. (a) The Government intends to award one Firm Fixed Price, Time & Materials (hybrid) option purchase order as a result of this Request for Quote to the responsible offeror whose offer conforms to the solicitation using the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) source selection procedures. Quotes shall be evaluated for acceptability only and shall not be rated. Offerors must be determined to be responsible according to the standards of FAR Part 9 to be eligible for award. Award will be based on the total overall lowest price quoted for the Base Year and two (2) Option Years which meets or exceeds the acceptability standard for the non-price factor, Past Performance Record. Any offeror who has been found to have a satisfactory past performance record will then have its quote evaluated for the lowest price. To be considered acceptable and eligible for award, an Offeror must address separately all the factors set forth in accordance with the instructions of this solicitation in 52.212-1 above. Any omission which precludes meeting solicitation objectives, and which cannot be rectified during a clarification with the offeror, will cause a quote to be found technically unacceptable. The determination of the competitive range will include all quotes which are considered to have a reasonable chance of being selected for award. A quote is considered acceptable if it (i) addresses itself to all the essential requirements of the RFQ, (ii) shows the offeror understands all essential requirements of the RFQ, has the full capability to perform the prospective requirements, (iii) has demonstrated an acceptable past performance record, and (iv) although some clarifications of the quote may be desirable, the quote is complete to the extent that an award could be made on its present terms. A quote will be considered unacceptable if award cannot be made on the present terms of the quote, and corrective action would require essentially rewriting the quote. Any quote which is determined to be unacceptable will not be considered in the competitive range and eliminated from further consideration. Past Performance Record: The Government will evaluate the Offeror's Past Performance Record, on an Acceptable/Unacceptable basis, to determine acceptability of a quote as follows: The Offeror shall describe their background, knowledge and experience related to the performance of scale equipment preventive, remedial, calibration, and certification maintenance support services. Of particular emphasis is performance that was executed in accordance with the same or similar scope and magnitude that is described in the SOW. Past performance information is used in determining the level of confidence the Government has for successful performance based upon the Offeror's actions under previously awarded, relevant contracts. To be considered relevant, the Offeror must demonstrate past execution of similar contracts in terms of scope, complexity, technology, magnitude of effort, and schedule. The Offeror must demonstrate through past performance an ability to perform the work described in the solicitation. This is done by demonstrating that they have successfully executed contracts of similar scope and magnitude within the past five (5) years. The Government requires submission of at least two (2) contracts, but will evaluate any and all submitted. Offerors shall provide a detailed explanation of the relevance of the contracts or efforts to the requirements as defined in the SOW. In the case of an Offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the Offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. Therefore, the Offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, "unknown" shall be considered "acceptable." The Government will only consider relevant past performance data of the Offeror and its major subcontractors. A major subcontractor is defined as those providing twenty percent (20%) of total dollar threshold and/or twenty-five percent (25%) of total man-hour effort. Subcontractors not meeting the definition of a "major subcontractor" will not be evaluated. The minimum criteria for acceptability for this factor shall be the submittal by the offeror of past performance information from two (2) sources that clearly indicate they have satisfactorily performed Preventive, Remedial, Calibration and Certification Maintenance services on scale equipment, commercially or for the Government within the past five (5) years. (b) Options. The Government will evaluate quotes for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that a quote 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 a quote mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the quote, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the quote's specified expiration time, the Government may accept a quote (or part of a quote), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
