The provision at 52.212-2, Evaluation -- Commercial Items applies to this RFQ. Paragraph (a) of this provision is as follows: The Government intends to award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible Offeror whose quote conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government. The Government has determined that best value will be achieved by using a Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable approach to determine best value. The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotes: A. Product Acceptability; B. Price **********************END OF 52.212-2, Paragraph (a) ********************* Additional evaluation information: Product acceptability- Government will review the proposed product to determine whether or not it meets the Statement of Need requirements. Price- Price will not be evaluated adjectivally or assigned a score. Price will be evaluated to determine whether it is fair and reasonable. For a price to be reasonable, it must represent a price to the Government that a prudent person would pay when consideration is given to prices in the market. The Government expects that price reasonableness will be established through adequate price competition, but it may also determine price reasonableness through price analysis techniques as described in FAR 13.106-3. The process of selection will be the following: the Government will evaluate all price quotes first to determine completeness with regard to Price (price quotes shall address all option years).   After determination of completeness with regard to Price, the Government will rank the quotes from lowest to highest price. Once the price quotes are ranked, the Government will evaluate the lowest price Offeror s proposed product acceptability. If that Offeror is determined to be Acceptable, the Government will select that Offeror as the awardee. If the lowest price Offeror is determined to be unacceptable, the Government will evaluate the next lowest price Offeror and will continue this process until the LPTA quote from a responsible vendor is identified. Although Past Performance is not evaluated as a separate evaluation element, the Government will consider past performance when performing its responsibility determination of the apparent awardee. Offerors are advised to include a completed copy of the provision at 52.212-3, Offeror Representations and Certifications -- Commercial Items, with its quote if it does not wish to have the Government rely on its Representations and Certifications in SAM. If submitting Reps and Certs, Offerors should submit a separate volume from the information requested above. The clause at 52.212-4, Contract Terms and Conditions -- Commercial Items, applies to this acquisition. Addenda to the clause are as follows: Paragraph 52.212-4(g) is supplemented with the following Order Administration Data (fill-ins to be completed at time of award): ***ORDER ADMINISTRATION DATA*** (continuation from Standard Form 1449, block 18A.) 1.
