Q2: The RFQ (Section 52.212-2) it says, "The

Government will award a Purchase Order to the responsible offeror as determined from the results of the comparative evaluation of quotes received in response to this solicitation in evaluating price, technical and past performance." If two quotes have equivalent technical and past performance merit, would the lower price quote be selected over the higher priced quote?

A2: Price may be the tie-breaker for equal non-price factors.

Q3: Page 2 of the RFQ indicates email submittal of our quote to your email address, but page 36 of the RFQ says "Quotations shall be submitted on double-sided, 30% post-consumer fiber paper whenever practicable." Can you confirm that only a digital submittal by email is required and that no paper submittal is required?

A3: Yes, only digital submittal by email is required. The abovementioned has been revised on the solicitation.

2. All other terms and conditions of the solicitation remain the same.
