Offers will be evaluated and contracts awarded on a line-by-line item basis. An offer for a line item will be evaluated independently from all other line item(s) for a contract award. Government awards will be made on the basis of the lowest evaluated price of proposals meeting or exceeding the acceptability standards for non-cost factors. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: FACTOR 1: TECHNICAL CAPABILITY FACTOR 2: PRICE Technical capability and price are of equal importance. Award(s) will be made to the lowest priced technically acceptable offer from a responsible offeror. In making a determination as to responsibility, the Government reserves the right to conduct a preaward survey. A. FACTOR 1: Technical Capability In order to be considered, an offeror must meet or exceed the technical capability standards as follows: Acceptable: An offer must meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation, including the requirement schedule and product specification requirements in Section B, and delivery requirements in Section F. In order to meet these minimum requirements for the product specification subfactor, an offeror must submit a Certificate of Analysis (COA) or Certificate of Quality (COQ) and Commitment Letter demonstrating that the offeror can meet the applicable specification for the product offered based on DoD Standard practice established for Bunkers servicing of fuels at commercial ports in accordance with the Military Standards (MIL-STD) 1548H w/CHANGE 1. Unacceptable: Proposal does not meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation. Any Offeror who receives an overall Technical rating of "Unacceptable" after final proposal revisions will not be eligible for an award. The Contracting Officer will evaluate proposals using the criteria above for each line item. Offerors who fail to meet minimal technical requirements of the solicitation will be determined to be technically unacceptable and will not be considered for award. In addition to meeting the technical acceptability requirements above, an Offeror must be determined responsible in accordance with FAR subpart 9.1. The government may conduct a pre-award survey as part of making a determination as to an Offeror�s responsibility. Additionally, if an Offeror who is not the actual Refueler at a location, the Offeror must submit supplier commitment letters demonstrating that the Offeror has secured arrangements that will enable it to support orders for the product specified, in accordance with the requirement schedule, and consistent with the delivery requirements and all other terms and conditions in the solicitation. Such commitment letters should be submitted with the Offeror�s initial proposal. B. FACTOR 2: Price The offered unit price for each individual line will be multiplied by the estimated quantity resulting in a total base period contract price for that line item. The lowest price will be determined by evaluating offers on a line-by-line-item basis. Each line item will be evaluated and awarded independently from all other line items. 1. Based on evaluation and extension provision I209.09, options will be considered and evaluated as part of the award. In accordance with clause I209.09 Extension Provisions, the unit price offered for each solicited line item will be multiplied by the estimated 6-month quantity for that line item. The total extension price will be added to the total base price in evaluating the proposal. The addition of the extension price does not obligate the government to exercise the option. Competitive Range Establishment: The Government will evaluate all proposals in accordance with FAR 15.305(a) and reserves the right to establish a competitive range and award without discussions in accordance with FAR 15.306(a)(3). Communication with Offerors for clarification may be conducted before a competitive range is established, per FAR 15.306(a). If discussions will be conducted, the Contracting Officer will establish a competitive range.

In accordance with FAR 15.306 (c)(2), the Contracting Officer may determine that the number of most highly rated proposals that might otherwise be included in the competitive range exceeds the number at which an efficient competition can be conducted. The Contracting Officer may limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals, per FAR 15.306 (c)(2). If the Contracting Officer decides that an Offeror�s proposal should no longer be included in the competitive range, the proposal shall be eliminated from consideration for award and the Contracting Officer will provide written notice of elimination from the competitive range to unsuccessful Offerors in accordance with FAR Part 15.503(a)(1). (b) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party.
