FAR 52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT 2014)� Basis for Award:� The basis for award will be �Best Value: Trade Off Process� in accordance with FAR 15.101-1. The Government intends to award one (1) or more stand-alone contracts to a responsible business Offeror based that represents the Best Value for the Government. The Government intends to evaluate proposals received and award a contract without holding discussions with Offerors. Therefore, the Offeror�s initial proposal should contain the Offeror�s best�terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary.� The Government will evaluate each proposal submission in accordance with the evaluation factors/criteria. Evaluations will be based solely on the information included in the submission. In order to be considered suitable for award, the Offeror�s proposal must receive an �Acceptable� rating for every non-price factor. The Government will evaluate proposals based on the following evaluation factors:� Factor 1 � Manufacturer specification Sheets (Non-price)� Factor 2 � Delivery Schedule (Non-price)� Factor 3 � Price Proposal Table (Price)� In determining which proposal provides the best value to the Government, factors 1 and 2 combined are weighted higher than factor 3. In addition, the non-price factors combined are more important than price. � Based upon the results of the integrated assessment of the non-price and price proposals, FEMA may make awards to the lowest-priced Offeror or the Offeror with the highest non-price score if the source selection official determines that to do so would result in the best value to the Government.� Evaluation Criteria:� Factor 1 � Manufacturer Specification Sheet � FEMA will evaluate the technical specifications for compliance with the requirements for each item. Offeror shall not provide items that are on the Unacceptable Dehumidifier list. � If the Offeror fails to materially follow the solicitation proposal requirements, the Offeror may be declared ineligible for further consideration for an award and for evaluation for the entire proposal. The proposal of individual accessory equipment items provided must meet FEMAs requirements based on analysis of specification sheets provided. Items rated unsatisfactory for Factor 1 may be eliminated from further consideration for delivery order award or those individual items may be removed for consideration from the proposal without disqualifying the entire proposal.� The government will use the table below for its rankings.� Factor 1 � Technical Evaluation Criteria Table (Attached) Factor 2 � Delivery Schedule� (Attached) FEMA will consider the delivery date for the item and use the delivery schedule included in this solicitation to determine if the Offeror can meet FEMA�s delivery requirements. The government will use the table below for its rankings.� Factor 3 � Price (Attached) FEMA will use the Price Proposal Spreadsheet to be provided by FEMA for price evaluation. The Offeror�s price shall be inclusive of all cost associated with the item and all delivery cost associated with the item. Offeror submitting partial pricing information may be ineligible for award. The Offeror�s proposed pricing shall be evaluated for fairness and reasonableness for each proposed item. FEMA will assess the proposed total evaluated price of the contract from the Price Proposal to ensure it is fair and reasonable. The Government anticipates that the total evaluated price will be determined fair and reasonable based on adequate price competition in accordance with techniques used in FAR 15.404-1(b)(2). The following provisions must be completed by Offerors and included in the price proposal submission to be considered eligible for award. � E3.
