The following solicitation provisions apply to this acquisition: FAR 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors Commercial Items October 2018 FAR 52.212-3, Offerors Representations and Certifications Commercial Items December 2019 Offerors must complete annual representations and certifications electronically via the System for Award Management (SAM) website located at https://www.sam.gov/portal in accordance with FAR 52.212-3, Offerors Representations and Certifications Commercial Items. If paragraph (j) of the provision is applicable, a written submission is required. The following contract clauses apply to this acquisition: FAR 52.212-4, Contract Terms and Conditions Commercial Items October 2018 FAR 52.212-5, Contract Terms and Conditions Required to Implement Statutes or Executive Orders January 2020 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services November 1999, The Government may require continued performance of any services within the limits and at the rates specified in the contract. These rates may be adjusted only as a result of revisions to prevailing labor rates provided by the Secretary of Labor. The option provision may be exercised more than once, but the total extension of performance hereunder shall not exceed 6 months. The Contracting Officer may exercise the option by written notice to the Contractor within 30 calendar days of expiration. Addendum to 52.217-8, For purposes of award of this Contract, the Government intends to evaluate the option to extend services under FAR 52.217-8 as follows: The evaluation will consider the possibility that the option can be exercised at any time and can be exercised in increments of one to six months, but not for more than a total of six months during the life of the contract. The evaluation will assume that the prices for any option exercised under FAR 52.217-8 will be those rates in effect under the contract each time an option is exercised under this clause. The evaluation will therefore assume that the addition of the price or prices of any possible extension or extensions under FAR 52.217-8 to the total price for the basic requirement and the total price for the priced options has the same effect on the total price of all proposals relative to each other, and will not affect the ranking of proposals based on price, unless, after reviewing the proposals, the Government determines that there is a basis for finding otherwise. This evaluation will not obligate the Government to exercise any option under FAR 52.217-8. The following subparagraphs of FAR 52.212-5 are applicable: 52.204 10, 52.209-6, 52.219-6, 52.219-27, 52.219-28, 52.219-28, 52.222-3, 52.222-26, 52.222.35, 52.222-36, 52.222-37, 52.222-41, 2.222-42, 52.222-43, 52.222-55, 52.223-18, 52.225-1, 52.225-13, 52.232-33, and 52.232-34.

Point of Contact Samuel Smith Contract Specialist, NCO 17 Contracting Officer South Texas Veterans Health Care System (STVHCS) Department of Veterans Affairs 5441 Babcock Rd. San Antonio, TX 78240 (210) 694-6303 BASIS FOR AWARD This is a competitive best value selection in which competing offerors' past performance, technical acceptability and price will be evaluated to determine who represents the greatest benefit to the Government at a price that can be determined fair and reasonable. By submission of its offer, the offeror accedes to all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements. Failure to meet a requirement or inability to perform or provide all services requested shall result in an offer being determined technically unacceptable. The evaluation process shall proceed as follows: A. Following receipt of quotes, the Government will perform a comparative analysis of the services quoted. The Government will compare quotes to one another to select the service that best benefits the Government in fulfilling the requirement. The evaluation of Government requirements outlined in this Request for Quote will determine suitability. B. The Government will evaluate the offerors submitted recent and relevant past performance that is consistent with what is being requested in the Statement of Work. The Government may also utilize other sources of past performance if needed. C. For Technical acceptability, the Contractor shall attest as being able to provide fully trained, experienced, professionals who are able to perform all general duties, functions and activities as required within the Statement of Work. D. Prices will be evaluated for reasonableness. Unreasonable prices may be grounds for eliminating an offeror from competition. E. For the purposes of the award of this requirement, the Government intends to evaluate the Option to Extend Services under FAR 52.217-8 as follows: The evaluation will consider the possibility that the option can be exercised at any time and can be exercised in increments of one to six months, but not for more than a total of six months during the life of the contract. The evaluation will assume that the prices for any option exercised under FAR 52.217-8 will be at the same rates as those in effect under the contract at the time the option is exercised. The evaluation will therefore assume that the addition of the price or prices of any possible extension or extensions under FAR 52.217-8 to the total price of all offers relative to each other will not affect the ranking of offers based on price, unless, after reviewing the offers, the Government determines that there is a basis for finding otherwise. This evaluation will not obligate the Government to exercise any option under FAR 52.217-8. F. The Government intends to award one contract without discussions with respective offerors. The Government, however, reserves the right to conduct discussions if deemed in its best interest.
