The evaluation factors to be included in paragraph (a) of this provision are Price, Technical, and Past Performance. ADDENDA TO FAR 52.212-2: BASIS OF AWARD a. This is a competitive acquisition in accordance with FAR part 12 and FAR part 13. The Government will submit an offer in the form of a purchase order to the quoter that represents the best value to the Government. All quotes submitted will be reviewed for completeness. Quotes that are incomplete or missing information may be considered non-responsive and excluded from the evaluation. Quotes will be evaluated as described below. 1.� Price Evaluation. The government will rank all offers by Total Evaluated Price (TEP). The TEP will be calculated by multiplying the unit price by the quantity to confirm the extended amount quoted for each CLIN. Next, all extended amounts will be added together to get to the total price proposed. All pricing shall be rounded to the nearest dollar. The total proposed price will be evaluated for fairness and reasonableness IAW FAR 13.106-3(a). If there is a conflict between the quoted unit prices and extended amounts, the unit price shall be used to determine the total evaluated price. Any discounts identified in the quote will be included in the evaluation of the total evaluated price. The lowest price quote may not necessarily be selected. Next, the quote that has the lowest TEP will be evaluated for Technical Acceptability and assigned a rating of �Acceptable� or �Unacceptable.� 2.� Technical Evaluation. The evaluation team will review the descriptive literature to determine if the quote meets the requirements identified in this solicitation. The technical information will be evaluated on an Acceptable/Unacceptable basis. To be considered �Acceptable,� the quote shall clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation. If a quote DOES NOT clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation, the quote will be rated �Unacceptable.� If the Quoter�s Technical rating is determined to be �Unacceptable,� the Quoter will no longer be considered for award and evaluation for that Quoter will stop. If the quote is rated �Acceptable,� the quote will next be evaluated for Past Performance. (3) �Past Performance Evaluation. Past performance information will be based on the information gathered using the CAGE code submitted by the Offeror, utilizing the System for Awards Management (SAM) pulled from SAM.gov, and in accordance with DFARS 252.213-7000, Notice to Prospective Suppliers on Use of Supplier Performance Risk System in Past Performance Evaluations (Sept 2019). As a result, quoters will receive an �Acceptable� or �Unacceptable� past performance rating. A quoter will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably if they do not have a record of past performance in SPRS under the PSC of the items being purchased. The Government reserves the right to use any Past Performance history source for verification. b. If the lowest priced acceptable offer is judged to have an �Acceptable� performance assessment rating and is determined to be responsible, that offer represents the best value for the government and the evaluation process stops at this point. Award shall be made to that Quoter without further consideration of any other quotes. If the lowest priced Quoter is not judged to have �Acceptable� Technical and Past Performance ratings, the next lowest priced Quoter will be evaluated utilizing the methodology above, and the process will continue (in order by price) until a Quoter is judged to have an �Acceptable� Technical and Past Performance assessment rating or until all Quoter are evaluated. c. The Government reserves the right to award on an ""All or None"" basis. d. Discussions: The Government intends to award a purchase order without discussions with respective vendors/quoters. The Government, however, reserves the right to conduct discussions if deemed in its best interest. 4. The clause at FAR 52.212-4, Contract Terms and Conditions�Commercial Products and Commercial Services (Dec 2022), and the addenda listed below apply to this acquisition. ADDENDA TO FAR 52.212-4: Text in paragraph (c) is deleted and replaced with the following: (c) Changes.
