Amendments: 20200818 update- Supplemental information clarifying calculation for Total Evaluated Price (TEP) vs. Award: -The TEP is simply the evaluated price. This quantification is intended to capture the collective impact of all quantity range rates. All offerors will be evaluated in the same fashion. Calculation of TEP will be accomplished in planned fashion to ensure contract quantity range rates are established through adequate price competition. The TEP will not represent total contract value and will be for evaluation purposes only. Funding and therefore invoicing will be at the order level. Once awarded, the TEP will not have bearing on the contract (Only the rates established by its evaluation will). Ultimately, these rates will be placed on contract pricing tables to be utilized for the award of orders in support CLS efforts. 20200817 update- Supplemental information clarifying the calculation of CLIN 0004 TEP for evaluation purposes: -The months and quantity of systems provided in columns C and D of the CLIN 0004 CLS section of the pricing workbook is information provided for offeror planning purposes only and will not be used in the Governments calculation of TEP for evaluation and selection for award.
