Section Contract Clauses

ADDENDUM TO FAR 52.212-1

The Government intends to award a Firm, Fixed-Price (FFP) contract as a result of this solicitation in accordance with FAR Part 12 and FAR Part 13. Award will be made to that vendor whose quote represents the best value to the

Government under the selection criteria set forth in this solicitation. The Government intends to evaluate quotes and award a contract based on initial quotes. Therefore, the vendor's initial quote should contain the vendor's best terms from a Price standpoint.

The Government intends to award the contract without exchanges. The establishment of a competitive range is not anticipated. Accordingly, each vendor should submit its most favorable terms from a price standpoint. However, the Government may contact any or all vendors with questions concerning their responses as permitted under FAR

Part 13. The Government reserves the right to award an FFP contract to other than the lowest cost vendor; award a

FFP contract without exchanges; or award a FFP contract after exchanges, whichever is in the best interest of the

Government.

Vendors are hereby instructed that, regardless of any language that may be used in this solicitation, the

Government is NOT conducting this procurement under FAR Part 15. This procurement is being conducted under

FAR Part 13.

QUESTIONS: Vendors may submit questions regarding clarification of solicitation requirements via email to

James Keegan at james.p.keegan7.civ@us.navy.mil and Samantha Miller at samantha.a.miller77.civ@us.navy.mil.

It is requested that all questions be received by 23 September 2025 by 3:00 PM Eastern Time, as time may not permit responses to questions received after that date to be prepared and issued prior to the receipt of quotations.

FOR SUBMISSIONS OF VENDORS:

a. Quotes shall be submitted electronically no later than the due date of the solicitation via email to James

Keegan at james.p.keegan7.civ@us.navy.mil and Samantha Miller at samantha.a.miller77.civ@us.navy.mil. Vendor shall comply with the detailed instructions for the format and content of the quotes contained herein; quotes that do not comply may be considered unacceptable and may render the quote ineligible for award. All electronic files and versions of vendors’ quotes shall be compatible with the current release of Microsoft Office Suite version 2010 (Excel). The vendor shall be responsible for ensuring that their electronic quotes are virus free.

b. Vendors shall comply with all instructions for submitting quotes and attachments.

Factor I – Price

This volume shall include completed solicitation documents and additional supporting documentation described below:

• Completed price list that provides individual pricing for each CLIN as detailed in the solicitation.

• All supplemental information to support the quoted price.

mailto:james.p.keegan7.civ@us.navy.mil mailto:samantha.a.miller77.civ@us.navy.mil mailto:james.p.keegan7.civ@us.navy.mil mailto:samantha.a.miller77.civ@us.navy.mil

• Unless completed in SAM, RFP, Representations, Certifications and Other Statements of Offerors completed by the quoter.

All price information shall be contained in the price quote. No price information shall be included in any other volume including cover letters. The vendor is responsible for submitting sufficient information to enable the

Government to fully evaluate its’ price quote. The completion and submission of the above items will constitute a quote and will indicate the vendor’s unconditional assent to the terms and conditions of this RFQ and any attachments hereto.

ADDENDUM TO FAR 52.212-2

The Government will award a single award contract with Firm, Fixed Price (FFP) Provisions as a result of this solicitation and in accordance with the policies and procedures of FAR Part 12 and FAR Part 13. Award will be made to the responsible quoter whose quote conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the

Government, price and other factors considered.

The Government intends to award a contract without exchanges. The establishment of a competitive range is not anticipated. Accordingly, each quoter should submit its most favorable terms from a price standpoint. However, the

Government reserves the right to establish a competitive range and conduct exchanges if later determined by the

PCO to be necessary. The Government reserves the right to award a firm, fixed-price award to other than the lowest priced quoter; award a FFP award without exchanges; or award a FFP contract after exchanges, whichever is in the best interest of the Government.

All quotes will be reviewed for timeliness. Timely quotes will also be reviewed for compliance to the solicitation. If the quote is not compliant with the material terms of the solicitation, it may not be evaluated and the vendor will be notified that the quote is non-responsive.

Factor I –Price

A vendor’s quoted price will be determined by adding all extended amounts for all CLIN(s) which are comprised of all items listed within the quote. Although price is not the most important evaluation factor, it has the potential to become more significant during the evaluation process. The degree of importance of price will increase with the degree of equality of the quotes in relation to the other factors on which selection is to be based. The importance of price will also increase when a vendor’s price is so significantly high as to diminish the value to the Government that might be gained under the other aspects of the quote. If, at any stage of the evaluation, all vendors are determined to have submitted equal, or virtually equal, quotes, price could become the factor in determining which vendor shall receive the award.

Price will be evaluated in accordance with FAR Part 13. The Government may evaluate any and all information submitted by the quoter to support the reasonableness of prices quoted. The method of evaluation used by the

Contracting Officer is solely within the discretion of the Contracting Officer. Additionally, the government may request quoters to submit additional information/data to support price reasonableness such as copies of paid invoices for the same or similar items or uncertified cost and pricing data. Failure to submit the requested information may result in disqualification of the submitted quote.

The Government will award on the basis of price unless the contracting officer is aware of past performance information related to the low price quote which indicates that quote may not represent best value. In that case, the

Government reserves the right to consider the past performance of other quotes, conduct a price, past performance tradeoff, and award to other than the lowest price quote.

3. Written Notice

A written notice of award or acceptance of a quote e-mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful vendor within the time for acceptance specified in the quote, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party.

Before the quote’s specified expiration time, the Government may accept a quote (or part of a quote), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
