Evaluation Criteria

FAR 13.106-2 Evaluation of Quotations or Offers – The Government intends to evaluate quotes

in response to this quotation and will award one firm-fixed priced contract to the lowest price,

technically acceptable contractor whose quote represents the lowest price. Therefore, to be

considered for award, contractors are required to submit descriptive product literature/technical

information which clearly indicates the product offered meets the Government minimum

requirements. This information will be used to determine technical acceptability. Technical

information will be evaluated for acceptability (only) on a pass/fail basis and will not be rated.

Any contractor who has submitted technically acceptable product information will then have its

quote evaluated for price.

The evaluation method that will be utilized is Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable (LPTA) in

accordance with FAR 15.101-2. Award will be made on the basis of the lowest evaluated price of quotes

meeting or exceeding the acceptability standards for non-cost factors. Tradeoffs are not permitted. Quotes

are evaluated for acceptability but not ranked using the non-cost/price factors. The evaluation criteria are

as follows: Price, Technical Capability, and Past Performance.

All invoicing under this contract will be accomplished via Wide Area Workflow (WAWF).
