Evaluation: By submission of its quote, the offeror agrees to all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements.

The evaluation process follows: Step I�Price Quote Evaluation Initially, the Government will place all quotes that meet the requirements of the solicitation in order by price, beginning with the lowest total evaluated price (TEP) as entered into Attachment #2. 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.

Step III � Past Performance Evaluation Next, the Government will evaluate the lowest total evaluated priced technically acceptable offeror for past performance with two reference contracts submitted and information gathered via the CAGE code submitted. The Contract Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) may be searched as well as the Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS) to evaluate past performance, and information may be pulled from the System for Award Management (SAM).

If the lowest total evaluated priced offeror, receives either an ""Unacceptable"" technical or �Unacceptable� past performance rating, evaluation of that quote will stop. In that instance, the next lowest total evaluated priced offeror will be evaluated using the methodology above and the process will continue (in order by price) until a technically acceptable offeror is evaluated to have an acceptable past performance rating and is determined to be responsible, or until all offerors are evaluated.
