All technically acceptable offers shall be treated equally except for their prices. Failure to meet a requirement may result in an offer being determined technically unacceptable. Offerors must clearly identify any exception to the solicitation terms and conditions and provide complete accompanying rationale. The ratings in the evaluation process is as follows: FACTOR 1 - Technical Response (non-cost) An evaluation will be conducted on each offeror's technical response and a determination will be made whether the offeror submitted all required information and whether the quote met the minimum requirements of the solicitation based on the ratings below. Technical Acceptable/Unacceptable Ratings/Rating Definition Acceptable (A) - The offeror provided all required information in their technical response. The quote clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation. Unacceptable (U) - The quote does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation. FACTOR 2 - Past Performance Evaluation (non-cost) The Government will rate past performance on an acceptable or unacceptable basis as follows: Past Performance Evaluation Rating/Rating Definition Acceptable (A) Based on the offeror's performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror's performance record is unknown.

Note: 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 (see FAR 15.305 (a)(2)(iv)).
