EVALUATION AND AWARD (a) The Government will make a single contract award to the responsible offeror whose offer conforms to the solicitation and is most advantageous to the government considering cost or price and technical factors listed below. For this solicitation, technical quality will be given significantly greater weight than cost/price. Proposals will be evaluated in two areas, technical and cost. The technical portion of the proposal will be a very important consideration in the award of the contract and should therefore be as complete as possible. The merit of each proposal will be carefully evaluated in context with the requirements of this solicitation. The evaluation will be based on technical and administrative capabilities of Offerors in relation to the needs of the Government and the reasonableness of cost in relation to the work to be done. Offers for less than this total requirement will not be considered for award. Technical proposals will be evaluated in terms of the quality and relevance or information presented. The following factors, which are in descending order of importance, shall be used to evaluate offers: Ability to provide quality tabletop exhibits Ability to provide quality pipe and drape Ability to provide quality floor plans Ability to provide quality signs Past Performance Offerors who include in their technical proposal a plan to hire welfare recipients for positions under a contract awarded resultant from this solicitation or who have established a company-wide plan for employment of welfare recipients, will be awarded bonus points in the evaluation of their proposal. Cost proposals: The Government will evaluate price on the basis of the total offered estimated price for providing all the services listed in this solicitation. Technical merit is significantly more important than cost. The Government reserves the right to award a contract to a technically superior offeror who is higher in cost. When technical proposals are evaluated as essentially equal, cost may be the deciding factor. Award will be made to the responsible and technically acceptable offeror whose proposal is determined to offer the greatest value to the Government, considering primarily technical excellence, and secondarily cost/price, and other factors considered. Contract award. The Government may evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror's initial offer should contain the offeror's best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any and all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received. A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer's specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
