The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: Factor 1- Technical Performance: (a) The contractor shall be responsible for ensuring their quote fully outlines the capability to adhere to the delivery deadline, quantities required, and specifications listed in the Performance Work Statement (PWS). Technical performance shall be found to be either acceptable or unacceptable based on the answers to the following questions: Can the vendor meet the Period of Performance (1 base year + 4 option years) as outlined in part 1.3 of the PWS? Can the vendor provide the maintenance and service support as outlined in part 5.1 of the PWS? Can the vendor provide the supplies as outlined in part 5.2 of the PWS? Is the vendor an authorized Ricoh product reseller or certified to provide service on Ricoh devices as outlined in part 1.4.7 of the PWS? The Government will determine the vendor to be Technically Acceptable only if all answers to the above questions (1-4) are “Yes”. Factor 2- Pricing: (a) The government will evaluate all technically acceptable offerors’ prices. Pricing will not be scored or rated and will not be considered unless the quotes technical acceptability in factor 1 are graded as acceptable. (b) Options.
