ADDENDUM to RFO 52.212-2 EVALUATION COMMERCIAL ITEMS:

The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the offeror responsible whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government considering price and other factors.

The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotations:

Technical Capability
Completion of Attachment - VAAR Clause 852.219-75 VA Notice of Limitations on Subcontracting- Certificate of Compliance for Services (DEVIATION)
Past Performance
Price

Evaluation Approach

The Government will will evaluate quotations using the comparative evaluation process outlined in RFO 12.203(c), where quotations will be compared to one another to determine which provides the best benefit to the Government. The Government reserves the right to consider a quotation other than the lowest price that provides additional benefit(s). Quotations may exceed minimum requirements of the solicitation. The Government reserves the right to select a quotation that provides benefit to the Government that exceeds the minimum requirements of the solicitation, but is not required to do so. Each response must meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation. The Government is not requesting or accepting alternate quotations. The evaluation will consider the following:

Factor 1. Technical Capability: The quotation will be evaluated to the extent to which it can meet and/or exceed the Government s requirements as outlined in the solicitation and based on the information requested in the instructions to quoters section of the solicitation.

Factor 2. Completion of Attachment - VAAR Clause 852.219-75 VA Notice of Limitations on Subcontracting-Certificate of Compliance for Services (DEVIATION): The Government will evaluate the responses an offeror makes to Attachment - VAAR Clause 852.219-75 VA Notice of Limitations on Subcontracting-Certificate of Compliance for Services (DEVIATION) for completeness. If an offeror fails to complete Attachment - VAAR Clause 852.219-75 VA Notice of Limitations on Subcontracting-Certificate of Compliance for Services (DEVIATION) their quote will be determined ineligible for award.

Factor 3. Past Performance: The Offeror shall be evaluated on performance of past contracts and how well the identified performance relates to the work being procured under the Performance Work Statement for this procurement. The Government reserves the right to use other methods to evaluate past performance, including but not limited to a review of Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), or other databases; and interviews with Program Managers and Contracting Officers.

Factor 4. Price: The Government will evaluate the price by adding the total of all line-item prices, including all options. The Government may use various price analysis techniques and procedures to make a price reasonableness determination. Offers that do not meet or exceed the technical capability or quality of the item offered to the Government requirement shall not be selected regardless of price.

The Government may consider an award to other than the lowest priced quoter/offeror if it s in the best interest of the Government.

If offeror does not provide all volumes as outlined in RFO 52.212-1 Instructions, the offer may be considered nonresponsive.

Options. The Government will evaluate quotations for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. This includes options under FAR 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, which applies to this solicitation. Evaluation of options under FAR 52.217-8 will be accomplished by adding six months of the quoter's price for the last potential period of performance under this contract to the quoter's total price. For example, if the contract includes option periods that are exercisable under FAR 52.217-9, the quoter's total price for the purpose of evaluation will include the base period, all option periods, and an additional six months of the last option period. Quoters must price only the base and option periods specified in the contract line-item numbers (CLINs) and shall not submit a price for the potential six-month extension of services under FAR 52.217-8. The Government reserves the right to exercise the option under FAR 52.217-8 before the end of any of the contractor's performance periods and will be exercised at the price and/or rates in effect at the time the clause is exercised.
