Oral explanations or instructions given before the award of a contract will not be binding. In no event shall failure to inspect the site constitute grounds for a claim after contract award. Requests for explanation or interpretation of the solicitation, drawings, specifications, etc. may be submitted by email to Rebecca Wilcox at rebecca.wilcox@usda.gov

Instruction for Submission of Quotes

(a) Submission of Quotes. Submit signed and dated quotes to the office specified in this solicitation at or before the exact time specified in this solicitation. Quotes may be submitted via the Schedule of Items plus Technical Response documents of the Quoter's design as specified in the solicitation. As a minimum, quoters must show:

(1) Pricing and Contact Information (use SF 1442 and Schedule of Items)

(2) Acknowledgment of any Solicitation Amendments (use SF 1442);

(3) Response to non-price evaluation factors (see Section 00 21 13, Evaluation Criteria) .

(b) Late submissions, modifications, revisions, and withdrawals of quotes. Quoters are responsible for submitting quotes, and any modifications, revisions, or withdrawals, so as to reach the Government office designated in the solicitation by the time specified in the solicitation. Quotes received after the designated time may not be considered.

(c) Contract award. The Government intends to evaluate quotes and award a contract without corresponding with quoters. Therefore, the quoter's initial offer should contain the quoter's best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to correspond if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all quotes if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest quote; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in quotes received.

(d) System for Award Management (SAM). To be considered for award all quoters must be successfully registered in the SAM database (www.sam.gov) AT THE TIME A QUOTE IS SUBMITTED. See FAR Clause 52.204-7, System for Award Management, as applicable for requirement information.

Effective June 29, 2018, all non-Federal entities who create or update their registration in SAM.gov will no longer need to have an approved Entity Administrator notarized letter on file before their registration is activated. All non- Federal entities still must mail the original, signed copy of the notarized letter to the Federal Service Desk. Failure to do so within 30 days of activation may result in the registration no longer being active. Contractors who are new to the SAM registration process are highly encouraged to begin registering as soon as possible to avoid any possible delays in future contract awards. Remember, there is no cost to use SAM. To find out additional information about the changes of the SAM registration process, contractors should visit the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) link located at the top of the SAM homepage (www.sam.gov).

(e) Unique Entity Identifier (formerly Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) Number. Place the annotation "Unique Entity Identifier" as well as Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT indicator, if applicable (formerly DUNS+4)" next to your name and address on the first page of your quote. The EFT indicator is a four-character suffix to the unique entity identifier. The suffix is assigned at the discretion of the Quoter to establish additional SAM records for identifying alternative EFT accounts (see subpart 32.11) for the same entity. If the Quoter does not have a unique entity identifier, it should contact the entity designated at www.sam.gov for unique entity identifier establishment directly to obtain one. The Quoter should indicate that it is A Quoter for a Government contract when contacting the entity designated at www.sam.gov for establishing the unique entity identifier.

(f) Electronic Submissions

(1) Quoters must submit electronic responses to this solicitation. Email quotes to rebecca.wilcox@usda.gov. Please limit the size of your file to 5 MB or less. Include the solicitation number in the subject line of the email. Files in Adobe Acrobat are the preferred file type; other types may be accepted but the quoter may be required to change type if the Government cannot open the attachment.

(2) If any portion of a quote received by the Contracting Officer is unreadable to the degree that conformance to the essential requirements of the solicitation cannot be ascertained from the document--

(i) The Contracting Officer shall immediately notify the quoter and permit the quoter to resubmit the quote.

(ii) The method and time for resubmission shall be prescribed by the Contracting Officer after consultation with the quoter; and

(iii) The resubmission shall be considered as if it were received at the date and time of the original unreadable submission for the purpose of determining timeliness, provided the quoter complies with the time and format requirements for resubmission prescribed by the Contracting Officer.

(3) Facsimile Submissions will not be accepted.

(4) Hard Copy Submissions will not be accepted

Award Determination

Award will be made to the quoter whose quote represents the best value to the Government. Factors to be considered in determining the best value include such matters as price, capability (to include experience of the company and project manager/superintendent and additional resources) and past performance. Price is of equal importance compared to availability and relevant past performance (non-price factors); however, the importance of price may become greater as the difference between availability and relevant past performance decrease. Where capability and past performance are determined to be substantially equal, price may control award. Non-price evaluation factors are considered to be of equal importance to each other. If a quoter takes exception to any of the terms and conditions of the solicitation, including attachments; is not currently registered in SAM; a quoter cannot be verified as a Small Business as shown in SAM or other proof as submitted by the quoter; or an incomplete quote that lacks sufficient information for the government to perform a technical evaluation to determine acceptability without clarification, then the Government may consider its quote to be unacceptable in which case the quote may not be evaluated.

Evaluation Criteria

Non-Price:

(1) Relevant Past Performance: Quoters shall submit references with a current point of telephone (and, if available, email) contact for up to three projects similar to this solicitation. For each, briefly describe the work performed. The Government will be assessing whether the past performance is relevant to the work to be performed in this contract and reflects a positive record of customer satisfaction and contract compliance, so Quoters should select projects https://www.acquisition.gov/far/html/Subpart%2032_11.html#wp1043964 https://www.acquisition.gov/far/html/www.sam.gov https://www.acquisition.gov/far/html/www.sam.gov mailto:rebecca.wilcox@usda.gov they believe best offer this evidence. The Government is not limited to Contractor-provided references and may obtain performance information from other sources.

(2) Availability: Quoters shall provide their availability to start as an earliest calendar date or as a number of days after award.

Price:

The pricing in the Schedule of Items will be used to establish price reasonableness and to demonstrate the quoter's clear understanding of the work to be performed.
