The following have been tailored to this procurement and are hereby added via addendum:

1. To assure timely and equitable evaluation of the proposal, the vendors must follow the instructions contained herein. The proposal must be complete, self-sufficient, and respond directly to the requirements of this solicitation.

2. Specific Instructions: The response shall consist of two (2) separate parts:

a. Part 1- Technical Acceptability - Submit one (1) copy of technical acceptability narrative.

b. Part 2- Price – Submit one (1) copy of price schedule and any pertinent additional information file://///FSPIH_NT/regs$/Working/far_doc/FAR12.DOC%23s126

3. Award will be made to the vendor whose quote is conforming to the solicitation and is determined to be the lowest price technically acceptable. Technical Acceptability, at a minimum, is defined as meeting all of the criteria and specifications in Attachment 1 and 2. Price and technical acceptability will be considered.

(ix) FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation -- Commercial Items (Oct 2014) this provision has been tailored to this procurement and is provided in full-text below:

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible vendor whose quote conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the

Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotes:

(i) Technical acceptability

(ii) Total contract price (base contract + option years)

(b) Total contract price and technical acceptability will be considered. The Government intends to evaluate quotes and award without discussion, but reserves the right to conduct discussions.

Therefore, the vendor’s initial quote should contain the vendor’s best terms from a total contract price and technical standpoint. The lowest priced quote will be evaluated for technical acceptability. If the quote is found technically acceptable, award will be made without further consideration. If it is found technically unacceptable, the Government will evaluate the next lowest quote for technical acceptability until award can be made to the lowest priced technically acceptable vendors. Therefore, the vendor’s initial quote should contain the vendor’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. Quotes that fail to furnish required representations or information, or reject the terms and conditions of the solicitation may be excluded from consideration.

(c) This will be a lowest priced, technically acceptable purchase. Technical acceptability – at a minimum, is defined as meeting following criteria:

Minimum Qualifications: Contractor must be able to provide the products described herein (see Attachments 1& 2).

(d) Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The

Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

(e) A written notice of award or acceptance of a quote 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. (End of Provision)

(x) Each vendor shall ensure the provision at FAR 52.212-3 including its Alternate I, Vendors

Representations and Certifications--Commercial Items (July 2016), are updated at www.sam.gov. Failure to obtain SAM registration will result in submissions not being considered for award.
