This solicitation is issued in accordance with FAR Part 12 (Acquisition of Commercial Items) and FAR Part 13 (Simplified Acquisition Procedures). The result of this solicitation will be a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) purchase order.
2. This solicitation is issued as 100% Small Business set aside. Please note: IAW the non-manufacturing rule, the small business must manufacture at least 50% of each item being purchased.
3. The Government intends to award a firm fixed price type contract from this solicitation to the responsive, responsible offeror who submits the lowest price. However, delivery is is more important than price, so the Government reserves the right to award based upon the best delivery schedule, if the best schedule is determined to be worth paying a price premium (if applicable).
Quoted pricing should be indicated directly on the CLIN within the solicitation.
4. Delivery for these items is 15 June 2020. All quotes shall be quoted as FOB Destination – Rock Island, IL, see
FAR 52.247-34.
5. Delivery Information: Delivery is 15 June 2020. Failure to comply with the contractual delivery schedule after award may result in termination of the order or require consideration if the Government elects to extend your delivery schedule. The Government is not required to extend your delivery schedule if you encounter delays. The non-availability of raw materials, subcontractor issues, scheduling conflict, etc., are not acceptable excuse for failing to meet your delivery schedule. If there is going to be a delay in delivery, the contractor is required to notify the Contract Specialist and/or Contracting Officer designated in this Delivery Order no later than 5 days prior to scheduled delivery date. Contractor must provide written notice of what the delay is, the new proposed delivery schedule, and offer consideration for the delay for Government consideration. If the Government elects to extend the delivery schedule, a formal modification will be executed.
Early Delivery is authorized if at no additional cost to the Government.
It is the responsibility of the contractor to ensure they are providing quality products that conform to the contract terms and conditions (to include delivery schedule). Delivery of non-conforming products results in delivery/acceptance delays and increased cost to the Government.
6. The contractor shall submit tracking information with the purchase order number on all deliveries to the Rock Island Arsenal. The Tracking information shall be sent via email to the Contract Specialist:

BADGING: ALL contractors who are performing services within the confines of Rock Island Arsenal are required to obtain a visitor badge. Contractors shall coordinate with Contracting Officer/Specialist and (if applicable) the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) designated for the contract/order. Contractors are required to display provided visitor badges above the waist in a conspicuous place on the upper part of the body.

Offers that fail to furnish required representations or information, or reject the terms and conditions of the solicitation may be excluded from consideration.
(c) Period for acceptance of offers. The offeror agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 30 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of offers, unless another time period is specified in an addendum to the solicitation.
(d) Product samples. When required by the solicitation, product samples shall be submitted at or prior to the time specified for receipt of offers. Unless otherwise specified in this solicitation, these samples shall be submitted at no expense to the Government, and returned at the sender's request and expense, unless they are destroyed during preaward testing.
(e) Multiple offers. Offerors are encouraged to submit multiple offers presenting alternative terms and conditions, including alternative line items (provided that the alternative line items are consistent with subpart 4.10 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation), or alternative commercial items for satisfying the requirements of this solicitation.
Each offer submitted will be evaluated separately.
(f) Late submissions, modifications, revisions, and withdrawals of offers:
(1) Offerors are responsible for submitting offers, and any modifications, revisions, or withdrawals, so as to reach the Government office designated in the solicitation by the time specified in the solicitation. If no time is specified in the solicitation, the time for receipt is 4:30 p.m., local time, for the designated Government office on the date that offers or revisions are due.
(2)(i) Any offer, modification, revision, or withdrawal of an offer received at the Government office designated in the solicitation after the exact time specified for receipt of offers is “late” and will not be considered unless it is received before award is made, the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late offer would not unduly delay the acquisition; and--
(A) If it was transmitted through an electronic commerce method authorized by the solicitation, it was received at the initial point of entry to the Government infrastructure not later than 5:00 p.m. one working day prior to the date specified for receipt of offers; or
(B) There is acceptable evidence to establish that it was received at the Government installation designated for receipt of offers and was under the Government's control prior to the time set for receipt of offers; or
(C) If this solicitation is a request for proposals, it was the only proposal received.
(ii) However, a late modification of an otherwise successful offer, that makes its terms more favorable to the Government, will be considered at any time it is received and may be accepted.
(3) Acceptable evidence to establish the time of receipt at the Government installation includes the time/date stamp of that installation on the offer wrapper, other documentary evidence of receipt maintained by the installation, or oral testimony or statements of Government personnel.
(4) If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal Government processes so that offers cannot be received at the Government office designated for receipt of offers by the exact time specified in the solicitation, and urgent Government requirements preclude amendment of the solicitation or other notice of an extension of the closing date, the time specified for receipt of offers will be deemed to be extended to the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day on which normal Government processes resume.
(5) Offers may be withdrawn by written notice received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of offers.
Oral offers in response to oral solicitations may be withdrawn orally. If the solicitation authorizes facsimile offers, offers may be withdrawn via facsimile received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of offers, subject to the conditions specified in the solicitation concerning facsimile offers. An offer may be withdrawn in person by an offeror or its authorized representative if, before the exact time set for receipt of offers, the identity of the person requesting withdrawal is established and the person signs a receipt for the offer.
(g) Contract award (not applicable to Invitation for Bids). The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror's initial offer should contain the offeror's best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.
(h) Multiple awards. The Government may accept any item or group of items of an offer, unless the offeror qualifies the offer by specific limitations. Unless otherwise provided in the Schedule, offers may not be submitted for quantities less than those specified. The Government reserves the right to make an award on any item for a quantity less than the quantity offered, at the unit prices offered, unless the offeror specifies otherwise in the offer.
