FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation - Commercial Items (OCT 2014) (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: 1. Technical Acceptability 2. Price USCIS intends to award a contract in accordance with the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA). Best value is expected to result from selection of the technically acceptable quote with the lowest evaluated price. Offers will be evaluated for Technical Acceptability in order based on their total evaluated price and only the lowest priced offer will be evaluated until it is determined the lowest priced offer does not meet Technical Acceptability criteria; at that point, the next lowest priced offer will be evaluated for Technical Acceptability. This process will continue until a technically acceptable offer is identified. If no proposal is technically acceptable upon evaluation of initial proposals or if the Government determines them necessary, the Government reserves the right to enter into discussions. Technical acceptability is comprised of meeting the requirements and task schedule as outlined in the SOW. Award will be made on the basis of the lowest evaluated price of quotes meeting the Technical Acceptability for non-cost factors. (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. (End of provision) FAR 52.212-3, Offeror Representations and Certifications - Commercial Items (NOV 2017); Offerors shall include a completed copy of the provision FAR 52.217-5 Evaluation of Options (July 1990) Except when it is determined in accordance with FAR 17.206(b) not to be in the Government's best interests, the Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. Evaluation of options will not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). (End of provision) FAR 52.217-9 Option to Extend the Term of the Contract (Mar 2000) (a) The Government may extend the term of this contract by written notice to the Contractor within 30 days; provided that the Government gives the Contractor a preliminary written notice of its intent to extend at least 60 days before the contract expires. The preliminary notice does not commit the Government to an extension. (b) If the Government exercises this option, the extended contract shall be considered to include this option clause. (c) The total duration of this contract, including the exercise of any options under this clause, shall not exceed 5 years/60 months. (End of clause) FAR 52.222-42 Statement of Equivalent Rates for Federal Hires (May 2014) In compliance with the Service Contract Labor Standards statute and the regulations of the Secretary of Labor (29 CFR part 4), this clause identifies the classes of service employees expected to be employed under the contract and states the wages and fringe benefits payable to each if they were employed by the contracting agency subject to the provisions of 5 U.S.C. 5341 or 5332.
