Evaluation:

The Government plans to award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the offer conforming to the solicitation which will be most advantageous to the Government. Quotes will be evaluated using price, technical, and past performance. Contractor positive experience with working with the 126ARW will be counted towards technical. Technical advantages will be compared to price differences. Past performance will be less than technical and/or price.

All solicitation specifications are not absolute and the 126ARW will consider innovative solutions to this requirement. *if vendor wants to propose alternative layouts, configurations, or solutions to issues, the government wants to entertain these changes* Quotes may be comparatively evaluated in compliance with FAR 13.106-2 (b) (3). Be sure to submit/attach enough additional information to enable the Government to fully ascertain the specifications/capabilities of any products quoted. The government will seek 3rd party consumer reviews of quoted items to determine technical ratings.
