The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforms to the solicitation and is the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA).
The Government intends to evaluate quotes and award a contract without discussions (except clarifications). Therefore, the offeror s initial quote should contain the offeror s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. Award will be made to the responsive, responsible, lowest priced, technically acceptable offeror that meets or exceeds the acceptability standards for all non-cost factors.
The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:
SDVOSB Verification- The Government will review VetBiz (https://www.vip.vetbiz.gov/ ) to confirm Service Disabled Veteran-owned Small Business (SDVOSB) status verification for the submitted quotes. Evaluations will be performed on quotes submitted by verified SDVOSBs only.
Evaluation Overview: Quotes will be evaluated and ranked according to price, from lowest to highest. The Government reserves the right to evaluate only the technical quote of the lowest priced offeror. Other technical quotes may not be evaluated, unless the Government determines the lowest price offeror to be unacceptable or non-responsive. In the event the Government determines the lowest price offeror to be unacceptable, the technical quote of the next lowest price offeror will be evaluated. This process will continue until a technical quote is determined to be acceptable.
Offers will be evaluated utilizing the following Technical evaluation criteria:
3.1 Meets ADA Compliance: The ADA Compliant element will be rated either acceptable or unacceptable. This element must be rated acceptable to receive an overall acceptable technical rating.
Past Performance- The Government will utilize information found in the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), Excluded Parties List System, System for Award Management, Experian, and Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System.
