http://farsite.hill.af.mil/reghtml/regs/far2afmcfars/fardfars/far/52_000.htm#P1070_147634

- Paragraph (g) second sentence revised as follows: “The Government intends to evaluate quotes and award a contract without interchanges. The government however, reserves the right to conduct interchanges with one, some, none or all vendors at its discretion."

- Paragraph (B)(12) is added as follows:

As part of a vendors quote, the following information must be furnished:

(i) Company Name

(ii) UEI Number

(iii) Cage Code

(iv) Number of Employees (used to evaluate size status)

(v) Total Yearly Revenue (used to evaluate size status)

(vi) Estimated Delivery Date

(vii) Payment Terms

(viii) Warranty Terms

(ix) FOB (Destination or Origin)

(x) Shipping Costs

2. Evaluation of Quotations or Offers

Pursuant to FAR 12.602 contract award will be made using Simplified Acquisition

Procedures in accordance with FAR 13.106. Quotes will be evaluated for technical compliance and price.

a. Technical. Provide a technical solution describing how offeror intends to fulfill all requirements of the Statement of Work (SOW), attachment 1.

b. Price. To be considered responsive, vendors shall provide pricing for all items specified in the above CLIN Schedule.

3. Basis for Award

Lowest Price Technically Compliant. A technical advisor will compare a vendor’s quoted solution against the requirements outlined in the SOW (reference attachment 1) and assign a technical rating of either “Compliant” or “Non-compliant”. If the lowest priced vendor is rated to be “Compliant”, an award decision can be finalized. If the lowest priced vendor is rated to be “Non-compliant”, review of the next lowest priced quote will continue until a “Compliant” rating is achieved or until all quotes are evaluated. In order to determine price fair and reasonable, the evaluation process may continue until reaching two technically compliant quotes (to establish adequate price competition).

4. Quote/Question Suspense & Submission Instructions

NOTE: Preferred method of receipt is via email. ZIP files are not an acceptable format for the Air Force Network and will not go through our email system. Vendors should place a read/delivery receipt and/or request confirmation of receipt by the government.

Any offer not sent via email to the appropriate government POC’s or the address if mailing, will be considered nonresponsive.
