Quotes will be evaluated by performing a comparative evaluation of quotations in accordance with FAR Overhaul 12.203(C)(2). The evaluation will be based on how well the proposed services meet the Government s requirements. Technical and Past Performance when combined is more important than price. Options: The Government will evaluate Quoters for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that a Quote is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. The evaluation of options does not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). Unbalanced refers to a situation where an Quoters places unreasonably high values on certain items and an unreasonable low value on others within a unit price contract. An unbalanced Quote may be rejected if it raises concerns about the overall cost effectiveness of the Quote, as it could lead to the Government paying unreasonably high prices for contract performance.
