1. The purpose of these instructions is to prescribe the format of the quotes in response to this RFQ and describe the approach for the development and presentation of the request for quote data. This is designed to ensure the essential information required for evaluation is submitted.

2. The contracting officer has determined there is a high probability of adequate price competition in this acquisition. Upon examination of the initial quotes, the contracting officer will review this determination and if, in the contracting officer’s opinion, adequate price competition exists, no additional cost information will be requested or required. However, if at any time during this competition the Contracting Officer determines that adequate price competition no longer exists, quoters may be required to submit information, other than certified cost or pricing data, to the extent necessary for the contracting officer to determine the reasonableness and affordability of the price.

3. To assure the timely and equitable evaluation of quotes, quoters shall follow the instructions contained herein. Quoters are required to meet and address all of the requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements. Failure to meet a requirement may result in a quote being deemed ineligible for award. Quoters must clearly identify any exception to the terms and conditions and provide complete accompanying rationale. The quotes when submitted, shall be comprehensive, complete, self-sufficient, and respond directly to the requirements of the RFQ.
