In order to be considered awardeable, a quoter must have received an "Acceptable" rating in every non-price factor. The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotes: Factor I: Technical Submission (Acceptable/Unacceptable) Factor II: Past Performance (Acceptable/Unacceptable) Factor III: Price Factor I - Technical Submission: The quoter shall provide detailed information and documentation to include pictures,websites etc in order to demonstrate that their quote meets the requirements identified in this Request for Quotation (RFQ). The technical quotes will be rated acceptable or unaccepatable using the ratings and descriptions outlined in the table below. In order to be considered Acceptable, quoters must receive an acceptable rating for the technical factor in its entirety. The quoter shall provide detailed information and documentation to include pictures,websites etc in order to demonstrate that their quote meets the requirements identified in this Request for Quotation (RFQ). Quotes that fail to provide detailed information and documentation is considered Unacceptable. Quoters whose technical submittal are rated "Unacceptable" will be rejected and removed from further competition.

Factor II - Past Performance Acceptability: The past performance evaluation results is an assessment of the quoter's probability of meeting the minimum past performance solicitation requirements. This assessment is based on the quoter's record of relevant and recent past performance information that pertains to the services outlined in the solicitation requirements.

Unacceptable Based on the quoter's performance record, the Government has no reasonable expectation that the quoter will be able to successfully provide specified facility Note: Quoters lacking relevant past performance history or for whom information on past performance is not available will not be evaluated favorable or unfavorable on past performance. Therefore, the quoter shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, "unknown" shall be considered "acceptable." If the Contracting Officer determines that a vendor's Past Performance is "unacceptable," that vendor's entire submittal will no longer be considered for further competition or award. There are two (2) aspects/subfactors of past performance evaluation: (1) Relevancy - The agency will evaluate the quoters past performance to determine how relevant a recent effort accomplished by the quoter is to the effort to be acquired. In establishing what is relevant for this acquisition, consideration has been given to those aspects of an quoter's contract history that give the greatest ability to measure whether the quoter will satisfy the current procurement. Evaluation aspects of relevancy will include similarity of scope and magnitude. Scope: The measure of the similarity of the scope of the solicitation and the contracts submitted by the quoter. Magnitude: The measure of the similarity of the dollar value of the supply that exists between this requirement and the quoter's references. Magnitude will be evaluated on the dollar amount supplied under the contract(s)/order(s) during the relevant three-year period established by the solicitation. (2) Quality - Each past performance reference under each quoter's Past Performance quote that is found to have at least some relevance to the requirement will be evaluated to determine the quality of the quoter's performance under that reference. In order to verify past performance information and determine the quality of the past performance quote, the Government may contact some or all of the references provided, as appropriate, and may collect information through questionnaires (Past Performance Report Form), telephone interviews and existing data sources to include but not limited to PPIRS. The Government reserves the right to obtain information for use in the evaluation of past performance from any and all sources including sources outside of the Government. This past performance information will be used for the evaluation of past performance. The quality evaluation will be based on the following sub factors: Quality, Timeliness, and Contractor Responsiveness which will be of equal importance. Factor III - Price Evaluation Criteria: Price quotes will be evaluated on the basis of price reasonableness in accordance with FAR 13.106-3. Quoters responding to this solicitation are advised that, prior to award, the government may request quoters to submit additional information/data to support price reasonableness such as copies of paid invoices for the same or similar items, sales history for the same or similar items, price list with effective date and/or copies of catalog pages along with any applicable discounts. Failure to submit the requested information may result in disqualification of the submitted quote. 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). The Government may evaluate any and all information submitted by the vendor to support the reasonableness of prices quoted. The method of evaluation used by the Contracting Officer is solely within the discretion of the Contracting Officer.

Line items are organized into contract line items, subline items, and exhibit line items.

(b) If an alternative line item structure is proposed, the structure must be consistent with subpart 204.71 of the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement and PGI 204.71.
