The Government will evaluate quotations using the comparative evaluation process, 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:\nTechnical or Quality: 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.\nPast Performance: The past performance evaluation will assess the relative risks associated with a quoter s likelihood of success in fulfilling the solicitation s requirements as indicated by the quoter s record of past performance. The past performance evaluation may be based on the contracting officer s knowledge of and previous experience with the supply or service being acquired; Customer surveys, and past performance questionnaire replies; Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) at http://www.cpars.gov/; or any other reasonable basis.\nVeterans Involvement: In accordance with Veterans Affairs Acquisition Regulation (VAAR) 852.215-70 (DEVIATION), Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned and Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB) Evaluation Factors, the Government will assign evaluation credit for a Quoter (i.e., prime contractor) that is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) or a VOSB. To receive credit, an offeror must be registered and verified with the SBA at the time of both quotation submission and the time of award and must meet federal small business size standards for the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code assigned to this solicitation.

Quoters must state in their quotations the names of the SDVOSBs and VOSBs with whom they intend to subcontract and provide a brief description of the proposed subcontracts and the approximate dollar values of the proposed subcontracts. In addition, the proposed subcontractors must be registered and verified in the SBA Small Business Search and meet federal small business size standards for the NAICS code assigned to this solicitation at the time of both quotation submission and award.\nPrice: The Government will evaluate the price by adding the total of all line item prices, including all options. The Total Evaluated Price will be that sum.\nSpeed of Delivery: The Government will evaluate Speed of Delivery based on the total number of calendar days proposed by the offeror to complete delivery of all required items. Offerors shall clearly identify their proposed delivery timeframe. The Government will compare the proposed delivery timeframes, with shorter delivery periods receiving more favorable consideration.\nOptions. The Government will evaluate quotations for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement.\nFAR 52.212-4, Contract Terms and Conditions Commercial Products and Commercial Services [NOV 2025]\nADDENDUM to FAR 52.212-4 CONTRACT TERMS AND CONDITIONS COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS AND COMMERCIAL SERVICES\nClauses that are incorporated by reference (by Citation Number, Title, and Date), have the same force and effect as if they were given in full text.

The Government will evaluate quotations using the comparative evaluation process, 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: \nTechnical or Quality: 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.\nPast Performance: The past performance evaluation will assess the relative risks associated with a quoter s likelihood of success in fulfilling the solicitation s requirements as indicated by the quoter s record of past performance. The past performance evaluation may be based on the contracting officer s knowledge of and previous experience with the supply or service being acquired; Customer surveys, and past performance questionnaire replies; Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) at http://www.cpars.gov/;   or any other reasonable basis.\nVeterans Involvement: In accordance with Veterans Affairs Acquisition Regulation (VAAR) 852.215-70 (DEVIATION), Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned and Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB) Evaluation Factors, the Government will assign evaluation credit for a Quoter (i.e., prime contractor) that is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) or a VOSB.

Quoters must state in their quotations the names of the SDVOSBs and VOSBs with whom they intend to subcontract and provide a brief description of the proposed subcontracts and the approximate dollar values of the proposed subcontracts. In addition, the proposed subcontractors must be registered and verified in the SBA Small Business Search and meet federal small business size standards for the NAICS code assigned to this solicitation at the time of both quotation submission and award.\nPrice: The Government will evaluate the price by adding the total of all line item prices, including all options.

Offerors shall clearly identify their proposed delivery timeframe. The Government will compare the proposed delivery timeframes, with shorter delivery periods receiving more favorable consideration.\nOptions.
