EVALUATION FOR AWARD: In accordance with FAR 12.602, streamlined evaluation procedures will be utilized for this procurement. Award will be made to the offeror who provides the lowest total evaluated price, who is deemed responsible, and who is compliant with all the requirements of this solicitation, to include submission requirements listed under quote mark Quote Submission Requirements quote mark below. Award will be made on a Firm Fixed Price basis. Price evaluation is as follows: 1. The offeror will enter unit prices for all shoe styles for the base year and each evaluated option year on the Price Evaluation Spreadsheet's first tab titled Summary of Unit Prices. All unit prices shall be binding. 2. The Government reserves the right to require submission of any data necessary to validate the reasonableness of an offer. 3. Based on procurement history, the majority of purchases have been for the 8 shoe styles found on the second tab of the Price Evaluation Spreadsheet titled Pricing Matrix. The Government will evaluate offers based on unit prices proposed for these 8 shoe styles on the base year and each evaluated option year. If an offeror fails to propose all of the unit prices for the base and evaluated option years, the Government may reject that offer as unacceptable. 4. For each proposal, the Government will calculate a weighted evaluated price by multiplying the proposed unit prices for the 8 shoe styles found on the second tab of the Price Evaluation Spreadsheet titled Pricing Matrix, by their respected weights, and summing their totals. The weight associated with each unit price, represents the likelihood among the most 8 prevalent shoe styles purchased, that an order, if placed, would be placed for that shoe style at the quoted unit price. 5. A Total Evaluated Price will be determined by summing the weighted evaluated prices for the 8 shoe styles found on the second tab of the Price Evaluation Spreadsheet titled Pricing Matrix for the base year and each evaluated option year. 6. Price Analysis shall be used to determine price reasonableness. Additional analysis techniques may be used as determined necessary by the Procuring Contracting Officer. These methods of evaluation may include the use of information/input from sources such as (but not limited to) other Government agencies and personnel. 7. As part of the evaluation, proposals may be reviewed to identify any significant unbalanced pricing found between the base year and evaluated option years. In accordance with FAR 15.404-1(g), i.e., Unbalanced Pricing, a proposal may be rejected if the Contracting Officer determines the lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government.
