A rating of Unacceptable means the offer fails to meet one or more of the Government's requirements, as specified in the SOW.

Basis for Award: The Government intends to award one firm fixed-price contract to the Offeror, whose offer represents the best value to the Government, after considering priced and non-priced factors. The Government intends to evaluate offers without exchanges with Offerors, after receipt of offers. Therefore, the Offeror’s submission must represent the Offeror’s best and final offer, when responding to this solicitation. The Government will use a lowest-priced technically acceptable approach when determining the best value. Offers will be arranged from lowest priced to highest priced. The lowest two offers will be evaluated for technical acceptability. If either offer is found to be unacceptable, it will be excluded from further consideration. The next-lowest offer will be evaluated for technical acceptability, and so-on until either: two technically-acceptable offers have been found. The lowest of the two will be declared the successful offer; or all offers have been exhausted. If an insufficient number of offers were found technically acceptable, the Contracting Officer may conduct interchanges with all, some, or none of the Offerors; with the intent to address any aspect of the Offeror's quote.
