Short delays happen, that's why Federal Acquisition Clause 52.212-4 is incorporated into every award. 52.212-4(f) defines acceptable delays, but more importantly in our case, it states that the Contractor is responsible for notification of delays and follow up on those delays. We shouldn't have to reach out and ask where a shipment is, the vendor should be notifying us "setting forth the full particulars in connection therewith."
Every Pre-solicitation, and Solicitation that we post has a letter that explicitly lists our evaluating factors as Price, Technically Acceptable, and Past Performance.
