Section 3: The Quoter shall complete and submit RFQ Attachment 3 � Quoter Representations. (ix) Evaluation Criteria: FAR Provision 52.212-2 �Evaluation-Commercial Products and Commercial Services� (Nov 2021) does not apply to this solicitation. The Government intends to evaluate submittals and award a purchase order on initial submittals without exchanges but reserves the right to enter exchanges. A submittal in response to the RFQ must contain the Quoter�s best terms from price standpoint. The Government reserves the right to award one or no purchase order at all. Quoters are encouraged to submit their best and final quote. The Government will make an award for this solicitation based on lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA). Technical tradeoffs will not be made, and no additional credit will be given for exceeding acceptability. The Government will review the two lowest priced quotes to determine whether the technical submissions meet the Government�s requirements set forth in the SOW. If one of the lowest priced Quoters is not found technically acceptable, the Government will review the next lowest priced Quoter until there are two Quoters that are determined to be technically acceptable. Award will be made to the Quoter with the lowest evaluated price, evaluated as technically acceptable, and deemed responsive to the solicitation requirements. Once the Government determines the Quoter that is the lowest-priced technically acceptable (i.e., the apparent successful Quoter), the Government reserves the right to communicate with only that Quoter to address any remaining issues, if necessary, and finalize a Purchase Order with that Quoter. These issues may include technical and price. If the parties cannot successfully address any remaining issues, as determined pertinent at the sole discretion of the Government, the Government reserves the right to communicate with the next lowest-priced Quoter based on the original analysis and address any remaining issues. Once the Government has begun communications with the next Quoter, no further communications with the previous Quoter will be entertained until after the Purchase order has been awarded. The Government will evaluate quotes using the evaluation factors set forth below: Factor 1 � Draft Project Plan The Draft Project Plan will be evaluated on an �Acceptable� or �Unacceptable� basis. To be rated �Acceptable,� the Draft Project Plan must clearly demonstrate a clear and feasible approach to completing the work described in Attachment 1 � Statement of Work (SOW). This includes: A preliminary schedule, high-level design drawings, and identification of proposed staffing, materials, and equipment resources. Quality control measures and risk mitigation strategies to ensure compliance with purchase order requirements. Site access, safety protocols, coordination with the Government, and any anticipated impacts to ongoing site operations. A quote will be rated �Acceptable� if it addresses all the above elements and demonstrates a clear and feasible approach to meeting the SOW requirements with no deficiencies. A quote that fails to address any of the above elements or does not demonstrate an ability to meet the requirements, will be rated �Unacceptable.� Only quotes rated �Acceptable� will be eligible for award. Factor 2 � Price The Government will evaluate Factor 2 as follows: The proposed prices will be evaluated based on the total evaluated price of the quote, calculated by adding together the proposed prices for each line item identified in solicitation price schedule. The Government will evaluate the fair and reasonableness of the total evaluated price based on competition. However, the Government reserves the right to utilize any of the price analysis techniques prescribed below to determine fair and reasonable pricing: Comparison of proposed prices received in response to the solicitation. Comparison of the proposed prices to historical prices paid, whether by the Government or other than the Government, for the same or similar items. Comparison with competitive published price lists. Comparison of proposed prices with independent Government cost estimates. The total evaluated price for each quote will be compared to all other quotes to determine the apparent lowest-priced quote and as noted, will be evaluated for fairness and reasonableness, but will not receive an adjectival rating.
