whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price

and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

1. Total Quoted Price

1. Technical adherence to FAR 52.212-1 “Instructions to Offerors” by the Offeror

In the integrated assessment upon which the award assessment will be made, Total Quoted

(b) BASIS FOR CONTRACT AWARD: This simplified acquisition is being issued on a Lowest

Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) basis. By submission of its offer in accordance with the

instructions provided in provision FAR 52.212-1 "Instructions to Offerors" the offeror accedes to

all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications,

the Model Agreement, and technical requirements, in addition to those identified as evaluation

factors. All technically acceptable offers will be treated equally. Failure to meet a requirement

may result in an offer being determined technically unacceptable. Offerors must clearly identify

any exception to the solicitation terms and conditions and provide complete accompanying

rationale. The evaluation process shall proceed as follows:

(1) Price Evaluation (Step 1) - Offerors will be ranked according to overall Total Quoted Price (i.e., the amount the offeror specifies in Block #26 of the Model Agreement AND on PWS Appendix-2).

Included as part of the price evaluation is a review for price reasonableness.

Offerors whose total evaluated price is unreasonable, or unaffordable (not within any budgetary

information included in the solicitation) may be considered unacceptable and may be rejected on

that basis. To reiterate for reasonableness the Total Quoted Price will be evaluated.

Only one award will be made under this solicitation. Award will be conducted under the

provisions of FAR Part 12, Commercial Items, and FAR 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures.

Submit only written offers via e-mail; oral offers will not be accepted. All offerors must be

registered with the System for Award Management (SAM).

eligible for award. In order to be deemed technically acceptable, the following evaluation criteria

must be met: Submit your proposal in accordance with the instructions specified in FAR 52.212-

1 “Instructions to Offerors” (i.e., Submittal of Total Quoted Price and PWS Appendix-2, Cover Letter no more than three pages, and lastly submittal of PWS Appendix-5). An offeror will be deemed Unacceptable if it deviates from those instructions. The LPTA offeror will be awarded the agreement.

(c) 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

agreement without further action by either party. Before the offer's specified expiration time, the
