Information for all Groups Group A (Line items 1-15) and Group B (line items 1-4) represent two separate requirements for the purposes of application of clauses and provisions in the solicitation. For the purpose of determining the lowest-priced, technically acceptable offer(s) the Government will evaluate each group separately. To be considered for award, offeror(s) shall submit a price for all line items within each product group on which an offer is made for the base and all four option years. Offered prices shall not exceed two decimal places.

Note for Group B: the offered price is based on the actual unit (individual catheters). The offeror shall state the quantity of units per box/case (two columns preceding base year prices) for all offered items. The box/case sizes should be equivalent to those shipped by the offeror commercially. Note that the total price per line item (proposed price multiplied by the estimated quantity) will be rounded to 2 decimal places for the purposes of price evaluation.

Offerors must list a 12-digit GTIN or UPC number for each offered item that is unique to the offeror or manufacturer. No two offered line items may have the same GTIN or UPC.

Note that each Group is listed on a separate tab of this spreadsheet.

Award will be made in the aggregate for each group (Group A and Group B). The Government will award two separate contracts (one for each Group). Pursuant to FAR 52.211-6, items in Group A and B must meet brand name or equal purchase descriptions to be acceptable for award. The Government reserves the right not to award a contract on this solicitation should offered prices match or exceed current pricing available on other Government contracts available to the procuring agencies.

The offeror shall also enter the FDA 510K number or numbers for the offered products for each offered Group. If an offeror’s 510K approval is not present on the FDA’s website (e.g. a new approval), the FDA approval letter shall be provided along with the offer. If the offered products are exempt from FDA 510K approval, the offeror shall indicate as such and shall provide evidence of the applicable exemption at the time of offer submission.

Product Samples. Offerors shall provide one sample (i.e. 1 catheter for each line item, not an entire case) for each offered line item, that is identical to the product that would be used to fulfill the requirements of this solicitation. Samples will be used to evaluate compliance with the salient characteristics listed for each line item on the following tabs and in Attachment B of the solicitation and will not be returned. Note that because the samples will not be provided in the same case/quantity as those for the contract, it is understandable that the samples may not contain the GTIN/UPC, but must be sterile, if applicable, per line item. The samples must be submitted by the due date for offers. Any offer whose proposed samples fail to meet the minimum requirements shall be rejected and shall receive no further consideration.
