While price is a significant factor in the evaluation of offers, the final award decision will be based upon a combination of price, delivery, past performance and other evaluation factors as described in the solicitation. All responsible sources may submit an offer/quote, which shall be considered. Consolidation: The proposed acquisition constitutes a consolidation of contract requirements as defined in FAR 2.101 since a solicitation issued may result in award of a single contract to satisfy two or more requirements for supplies previously provided under two or more separate acquisitions, each of which was lower in cost than the total cost of the contract for which offers are solicited’ Bundling: Although this solicitation consolidates multiple requirements previously procured under separate, smaller contracts into a single solicitation, it is not subject to bundling on the basis that each NSN is evaluated on an all or none basis per CLIN. A CLIN is an individual NSN. Therefore, the conditions for bundling do not apply. Since the evaluation of each NSN could possibly result in separate contracts, the requirements of bundling as described in FAR 7.107-3 do not apply. Note: The Contracting Officer may utilize on-line Reverse Auctioning as a means of conducting price discussions under this solicitation. During the course of the on-line auction, offerors' proposed prices will be publicly disclosed to other offerors and anyone else having access to the on-line auction. This public disclosure is anonymous, meaning that each offeror's identity will be concealed from other offerors (although it will be known to the Government), and only generic identifiers will be used publicly for each offeror's proposed pricing (e.g., "Offeror A").
