2.2.1.1 PRESENT VALUE PRICE EVALUATION:
Evaluation of offered prices will be on the basis of the annual price per NUSF, including any option
periods. The Government will perform present value price evaluation by reducing the prices per NUSF to
a composite annual square foot price, as follows:
Parking and wareyard areas will be excluded from the total square footage, but not from the price.
Editing Note: Verify discount and inflation rates at time
SFO is issued.
The annual per square foot price minus the base cost of operating expenses (line 27 of GSA Form
1217) will be discounted annually at 8 percent to yield a net present value cost (PVC) per square foot.
The operating expenses will be both escalated at 4 percent compounded annually and discounted
annually at 8 percent, then added to the net PVC to yield the gross PVC.
To the gross PVC will be added:
The cost of Government-provided services not included in the rental escalated at 4 percent
compounded annually and discounted annually at 8 percent.
The annualized cost per NUSF, over the full term of the lease, including the renewal option(s), for
all Schedule B items, which will be reimbursed to the Lessor by lump sum payment. (The cost of
these items is present value; therefore, it will not be discounted.)
The cost of relocation of furniture and telecommunications, if applicable.
The sum of the above will be the per NUSF present value of the offer for price evaluation purposes.
