Basis for Contract Award: Contract award will be made on the lowest price technically acceptable basis. A contract will be issued if the offeror's proposal is determined to: be technically acceptable, and be priced fair and reasonable. B. Evaluation Criteria 1. Price Evaluation. The Government will evaluate the Offeror's price quotation to ensure each subfactor is fair and reasonable. Any subfactor evaluated as "Unreasonable" will render the entire proposal unacceptable; therefore, unawardable. (a) The Government will evaluate the subfactor 1 on the basis of a Total Evaluated Price (TEP). The TEP will be calculated by adding the extended prices proposed for CLINS 0001, 1001, and 2001. The TEP will be evaluated for reasonableness in accordance with FAR 13.106-3(a) (b) The government will evaluate the Offeror's proposed shop rates by computing an average price based on the hourly prices proposed for CLINS 0002, 1002, and 2002. The average price will be computed by adding the shop rate for each CLIN and dividing the total by three. This number will be evaluated for reasonableness in accordance with FAR 13.106-3(a). Material will be evaluated as the need to replace parts arises as discovered by the contractor. Material will be evaluated for reasonableness in accordance with FAR 13.106-3(a). 2. Technical Evaluation. The government will evaluate Technical assigning a rating of Acceptable or Unacceptable. Technical capability with regards to performance of key technical areas of the Performance Work Statement (PWS) will be evaluated.

(3) Unless otherwise specified in the contract, the Government will accept or reject services and materials at the place of delivery as promptly as practicable after delivery, and they will be presumed accepted 60 days after the date of delivery, unless accepted earlier. (4) At any time during contract performance, but not later than 6 months (or such other time as may be specified in the contract) after acceptance of the services or materials last delivered under this contract, the Government may require the Contractor to replace or correct services or materials that at time of delivery failed to meet contract requirements. Except as otherwise specified in paragraph (a)(6) of this clause, the cost of replacement or correction shall be determined under paragraph (i) of this clause, but the "hourly rate" for labor hours incurred in the replacement or correction shall be reduced to exclude that portion of the rate attributable to profit.

(6) Notwithstanding paragraphs (a)(4) and (5) above, the Government may at any time require the Contractor to remedy by correction or replacement, without cost to the Government, any failure by the Contractor to comply with the requirements of this contract, if the failure is due to-- (i) Fraud, lack of good faith, or willful misconduct on the part of the Contractor's managerial personnel; or (ii) The conduct of one or more of the Contractor's employees selected or retained by the Contractor after any of the Contractor's managerial personnel has reasonable grounds to believe that the employee is habitually careless or unqualified. (7) This clause applies in the same manner and to the same extent to corrected or replacement materials or services as to materials and services originally delivered under this contract. (8) The Contractor has no obligation or liability under this contract to correct or replace materials and services that at time of delivery do not meet contract requirements, except as provided in this clause or as may be otherwise specified in the contract.

(2) Failure to agree upon these overtime rates shall be treated as a dispute under the Disputes clause of this contract.

The Contractor shall promptly pay any such reduction within 30 days unless the parties agree otherwise. The Government within 30 days will pay any such increases, unless the parties agree otherwise. The Contractor's payment will be made by check.
