Question: The solicitation identifies OEM Authorization and Support as an evaluation factor and states that documentation may demonstrate the ability to obtain required proprietary services through Bayer HealthCare LLC or another Bayer-authorized arrangement. Does a documented teaming or subcontracting arrangement with a firm that has the necessary Bayer authorization/support satisfy this requirement, or must the Offeror itself hold direct Bayer/MEDRAD authorization? The Offeror is not required to independently hold direct Bayer/MEDRAD authorization. However, the Offeror shall provide documentation demonstrating its ability to obtain the required Bayer OEM-authorized support necessary to perform the requirements of the SOW. If the Offeror proposes to use a teaming, subcontracting, or other formal arrangement, the Offeror shall provide documentation demonstrating the relationship or arrangement and that the proposed firm possesses the necessary Bayer authorization and capabilities to provide the required OEM support. 2. Question: The addendum mentions applicable SEWP ordering requirements. Please confirm whether this language applies to this requirement or is leftover language from a different template, since this does not appear to be a SEWP procurement. The reference to applicable SEWP ordering requirements was included in error and is not applicable to this solicitation. The reference is removed through this amendment. All other applicable registration and certification requirements of the solicitation remain unchanged. 3. Question: Section B.1 (page 5) states that payment is quarterly in arrears, as does the Price/Cost Schedule; however, Section B.1.15 (page 14) states that payment is semi-annually in arrears. Are the correct payment terms quarterly in arrears? Yes. The correct payment terms are quarterly in arrears. The SOW has been revised to reflect the correct payment frequency.

E.5 52.212-2 EVALUATION COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS AND COMMERCIAL SERVICES (OCT 2025) (DEVIATION) (a) Evaluation factors. 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 will be used to evaluate offers: Technical Capability The Government will evaluate whether the Offeror demonstrates the technical capability to perform all required preventive maintenance, repair, calibration, diagnostics, software and cybersecurity updates, technical support, and other requirements of the SOW for all covered equipment. OEM Authorization and Support The Government will evaluate the documentation submitted by the Offeror to determine whether the Offeror has demonstrated its ability to obtain the required Bayer OEM-authorized support necessary to perform the requirements of the SOW. The Offeror is not required to independently hold direct Bayer/MEDRAD authorization. If the Offeror proposes to utilize a teaming, subcontracting, or other formal arrangement, the Government will evaluate the documentation provided to determine whether the proposed firm possesses the necessary Bayer authorization and whether the arrangement provides access to the required proprietary software, diagnostic and calibration tools, software and cybersecurity updates, technical support, OEM replacement parts, and other OEM support necessary to perform the requirements of the SOW. Personnel Qualifications The Government will evaluate whether personnel proposed to perform the required services possess the applicable training, qualifications, certifications, and manufacturer authorization necessary to service the equipment identified in the SOW. SOW Compliance The Government will evaluate whether the quotation demonstrates compliance with all material requirements of the SOW, including the ability to provide required services for all equipment identified in the SOW. Past Performance The Government will evaluate the recency and relevance of the Offeror s past performance as it relates to work similar in size, scope, and complexity to this requirement. The Government may consider information provided by the Offeror and information obtained from other available Government sources. Offerors with no relevant past performance, or for whom past performance information is not available, will receive a Neutral past performance assessment and will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably solely on that basis. Price The Government will evaluate the Offeror s price for completeness and reasonableness. The evaluated price will include the Base Year and all Option Years. The Total Evaluated Price will be calculated by adding the price of the Base Period and all Option Periods. BASIS FOR AWARD Award will be made to the responsible Offeror whose quotation is determined technically acceptable and provides the lowest evaluated price. The Government intends to award to the Lowest-Priced Technically Acceptable (LPTA) Offeror. (b) Options (if applicable). The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. The evaluation of options does not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). This includes options under FAR 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, which applies to this solicitation. Evaluation of options under FAR 52.217-8 will be accomplished by using the prices offered for the last option period to determine the price for a 6-month option period, which will be added to the base and other option years to arrive at the total price.
