(End of addendum) Addendum to FAR 52.212-2 EVALUATION – COMMERCIAL ITEMS The Government will consider the following before making an award decision: (a)The Government intends to award a purchase order to the responsible vendor or vendors whose quote, conforming to the RFQ, is most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. Price, delivery schedule, and past performance will be used to evaluate quotes. Delivery schedule is more important than price. (b)In the event that two or more quotes from responsible small businesses are received, the Government may restrict evaluation to the quotes submitted by the small businesses. Further, if one quote from a responsible small business is received, the Government may look more favorably on it, when compared with competitive bids from large businesses. (c)The Government reserves the right to award no contract at all, depending on the quality of quotes submitted and availability of funds. Factor I – Delivery Schedule: The Government will evaluate the quote delivery schedule for each lot as shown in the table above to determine if it meets or exceeds the Government's required delivery dates. For the sake of clarity, instead of stating that it can meet the required delivery dates, interested companies should provide their best (i.e. earliest) delivery dates by stating delivery as the number of days after receipt of an order. Quotes shall identify the lead time required to deliver the required units in each group cited in the table above. The Government may look more favorably on companies that can deliver the blower earlier than 01 March 2021 or fewer days after award. Similarly, the Government may look more favorably on the vendor or vendors that can deliver the second and third group of blowers fewer days after award or earlier than the Government desired delivery schedule as cited above. Factor II- Price: The Government will independently evaluate the quoted price for each group/lot cited in the table above to determine if it is fair and reasonable. As previously noted, if charging for IUID labels, they must be listed on your quote as a separate line item and you must include shipping expense in your quoted price. The Government reserves the right to order units from more than one vendor if this provides the Government with the best value. Quoters shall provide pricing with this possibility in mind. If the vendor can provide volume discount pricing please provide a pricing table with quantities in your quote. Factor III- Past Performance: The Government will consider data available in the statistical reporting module of the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS) regarding the supplier's past performance history. Be sure to provide the Government with your CAGE/DUNS numbers to facilitate this review process. The Government reserves the right to award to the company or companies whose quotation(s) represent(s) the best value to the Government. Notice: Any offer rated "Unacceptable" under any one of the above factors may be determined to be ineligible for contract award.
