About this file

This is an attachment to a Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) Request for Proposals that specifies requirements for contractors offering overseas delivery services outside the 48 contiguous states, Washington DC, Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and U.S. territories. The attachment applies exclusively to offerors who elect to provide overseas delivery and must be completed and returned with the proposal.

Contractors offering overseas delivery must comply with numerous clauses governing international commerce, including submission of offers in English and U.S. currency only, FOB pricing structures (FOB Inland Carrier at Point of Exportation or FOB Inland Point at Country of Importation), and delivery of goods in good order and condition with contractor bearing all transportation costs and risk of loss or damage. Offerors must clearly identify geographic areas, countries, and zones where direct delivery will be provided and establish delivery timeframes not exceeding normal commercial practices, with a baseline of 90 days after receipt of order. Contractors are required to include standard commercial export packaging, preserve and mark shipments per specified requirements, ensure compliance with International Plant Protection Convention guidelines for non-manufactured wood packing materials, and provide minimum overseas contact points in each delivery region for local assistance with complaints. Additionally, contractors must warrant that quoted prices are net of any foreign taxes, duties, or customs fees from which the U.S. Government is exempt, maintain parts and service availability through dealers or distributors in destination areas, and complete detailed marking and documentation requirements including DD Forms 1387 for transshipments via U.S. Government facilities.
