Interchanges may be written, email, phone call, etc., or any method which would accurately capture the contemporaneous sharing of information between the Government and the Offerors. Interchanges may also be oral conversations between the Government and the Offerors. INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS: Offerors shall comply with FAR 52.212-1 Instructions to Offerors – Commercial Products and Commercial Services (Sep 2023) FAR 52.212-1 is hereby tailored as follows: Any inconsistency between FAR Provision 52.212-1 and the Addendum to FAR 52.212-1 shall be solved by giving precedence to the Addendum to FAR 52.212-1. After receipt of quotes the Government may, with or without notice, negotiate with and, if desired, seek quote revisions from as many or as few quoters as it, in its discretion, deems appropriate. The term “offeror” or “offer” as used in FAR 52.212-1 shall be understood to mean “quoter” and “quote,” respectively. Further, the term “award” shall be understood to describe the Government’s issuance of an order. The Government will consider all quotes that are timely received and may consider late quotes. Failure of a quote to address any items required in the submission package may make a quote unacceptable, therefore, unawardable. Paragraph (b) of FAR Provision 52.212-1, Submission of Offers, is amended as follows: In addition to the quote submission requirements stated in FAR provision 52.212-1, quoters shall provide the following, as part of the quote submission package, no later than the required time and date for quote submission: Statement of Understanding of Attachment 3 - Performance Work Statement Completed copy of Attachment 4 – Offeror Response Form Completed copy of Attachment 5 - Mission Essential Contractor Service Plan Template Proof of company currently holding Top Secret Facility Clearance AND candidate (FTE employee taking position) currently holding a Top Secret with SCI (TS/SCI) security clearance with DCID 704 eligibility Proof of a minimum 5 years experience via resume performing VTC system administration and Senior IT system administration duties on unclassified and classified systems Any relevant training obtained applicable to the services requested Firm Fixed Pricing to include Unit Price and Extended Price in accordance with the CLIN structure (Price must include ALL work outlined within the PWS) Discount Terms (if applicable) EVALUATION: ADDENDUM TO FAR 52.212-2 EVALUATION—COMMERCIAL ITEMS (Nov 2021) Paragraph (a) is hereby replaced with the following: 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. Quotes that do not include all requested information in FAR 52.212-1 in 5.1.1 will be considered nonresponsive. Award will be made to the offeror with the lowest priced technically acceptable (LPTA) quote. The following factor(s) shall be used to evaluate offers: 1. Technical Capability: items meet the Government requirement/specifications IAW Attachment 3 – Performance Work Statement showcasing relevant trainings and experience, offeror resume includes at a minimum 5 years of relevent experience. If all requested information is not provided or does not meet the requirements identified, the Government will determine the quote to be nonresponsive. The technical proposal shall include the Statement of Understanding of Attachment 3 - Performance Work Statement, its requirements, specifications, and means to complete the project. This will be rated on an acceptable vs. non-acceptable basis. 2. Price: The lowest priced quote will be evaluated for technical acceptability first. The Government will evaluate quotes for acceptability but will not rank the quotes by non-price factors. If the Government receives fewer than three (3) quotes, all quotes will be evaluated for Technical Acceptability. If the Government receives three (3) or more quotes, the Government will only select the three (3) lowest priced quotes to evaluate for Technical Acceptability. The Government reserves the right to evaluate additional quotes for technical acceptability if it is in the Government’s best interest to do so. Price will be evaluated to ensure fair and reasonable pricing. A price is reasonable if, in its nature and amount, it does not exceed that which would be incurred by a prudent person in the conduct of competitive business. The Government may use various price analysis techniques and procedures to ensure a fair and reasonable price. Some of those techniques are, but not limited to, comparison of quoted prices received in response to the solicitation and/or comparison of quoted prices with the Independent Government Estimate. Prices must be determined fair and reasonable. No additional information from the offeror will be required if the price is based on adequate price competition.
