The government reserves the right to deem an offeror's overall quotation to be unresponsive in the event that incomplete, unreasonable or unbalanced pricing is submitted. 2. Past Performance Factor: a. Second, the offeror's past performance will be assigned a rating of "Acceptable" or "Unacceptable" as outlined in the table below. An unacceptable rating received will result in the entire quotation being determined unacceptable and the offeror's proposal will not receive further consideration.

An Unacceptable Past Performance rating will result in the entire quotation being determined Unacceptable and the offeror's proposal will not receive further consideration. (b) If the lowest priced evaluated responsive offer is determined to have an acceptable Past Performance rating, that offer represents the best value to the Government and the evaluation process will stop at that point. Award shall be made to that offeror without further consideration of any other offers. (c) If the lowest priced offeror is determined not to have an acceptable Past Performance rating, the next lowest priced evaluated responsive offeror will be evaluated, and the process will continue (in order by price) until an offeror is determined to have an acceptable Past Performance rating.
