(a) 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. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: Award shall be made to the offeror whose quotation is the lowest price technically acceptable offer. The Government will evaluate quotations based on the following evaluation criteria: 1) Technical Description; and, 2) Price. 1. Technical Description: The Government will evaluate whether the quoter has included a technical description of the services and equipment being offered in sufficient detail to evaluate compliance with the requirements in the solicitation, including the attached SOW and CLIN Structure. Quotations that do not include a technical description of the services and equipment being offered or do not include a technical description of the services and equipment being offered in sufficient detail to evaluation compliance with the requirements in the solicitation, including the attached SOW and CLIN Structure will not be considered for award. 2. Price: An Offeror’s Total Evaluated Price will be determined by multiplying the proposed unit prices, by the required quantities identified in each CLIN. For competitive evaluation purposes, the evaluated price for this procurement will be based on a sum of all CLINs. Offerors must provide pricing for all CLINs. All CLINs will be included in the total evaluated price. Each Offeror’s offer shall be evaluated to determine if it is complete. In accordance with FAR 15.305(a)(1), competition establishes price reasonableness. Therefore, when contracting on a firm-fixed-price basis, comparison of the proposed prices will usually satisfy the requirements to perform a price analysis, and a cost analysis need not be performed. Since this will be conducted using competitive procedures, adequate price competition is expected as the basis for determining the fair and reasonableness of the selected Offeror’s price. In the event that there is only one satisfactory offer, the Government reserves the right to request additional cost or pricing data as necessary from both the Offeror and subcontractors, and may conduct negotiations with the Offeror, pursuant to FAR 15.403-4 in order to ensure a reasonable and realistic price. A Competitive Fair and Reasonable Price Determination will be reviewed and approved by the Procuring Contracting Officer. The Competitive Fair and Reasonable Price Determination will establish price reasonableness and determine responsibility (FAR 9.103) and financial stability (FAR 9.104-1(a)).
