Evaluation. Award will be made on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) basis to the responsible quoter whose conforming quotation is rated technically acceptable and offers the lowest evaluated price determined fair and reasonable. The following factor(s) will be evaluated on an acceptable/unacceptable basis: Factor 1 — Price, Factor 2 — Technical Capability, and Factor 3-Past Performance. No credit will be given for exceeding the acceptability standards. A quotation rated unacceptable on any factor is ineligible for award. The Government may make award without communications.

Price will be evaluated inclusive of transportation charges to destination and by adding the prices for all CLINs / option periods to the base requirement. Prompt payment discounts will not be considered in the price evaluation.
Past Performance. The Government will evaluate the quoter's recent and relevant past performance as an indicator of its ability to perform this requirement. “Recent” means performed within 3 years of the date of this RFQ; “relevant” means similar in size, scope, and complexity.
