SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Purpose

    Offers submitted in response to Government solicitations must be 
evaluated and awards made on the basis of the lowest laid down cost to 
the Government at the overseas port of discharge, via methods and ports 
compatible with required delivery dates and conditions affecting 
transportation know at the time of evaluation. FAR provision 52.247-51, 
``Evaluation of Export Offers,'' is required for insertion in 
Government solicitations when supplies are to be exported through 
Contiguous United States (CONUS) ports and offers are solicited on a 
free onboard (f.o.b.) origin or f.o.b. destination basis. The provision 
has three alternates, to be used (1) when the CONUS ports of export are 
DoD water terminals, (2) when offers are solicited on an f.o.b. origin 
only basis, and (3) when offers are solicited on an f.o.b. destination 
only basis. The provision

shipment through the port resulting in the lowest cost to the 
Government.
