(d) Government Extent of Obligation- It is understood and agreed that this BPA obligates the Government only to the extent that authorized calls are actually made against it by an authorized individual, and then only when performance against such calls has been completed.

(e) Contractor Extent of Obligation

(i) Pricing - The prices charged to the Government shall be as low as or lower than those charged to the supplier's most favored customer for comparable quantities under similar terms and conditions. The prices that are quoted on the supplier's price list shall meet such pricing that is indicated within this section. Only the CO is authorized to approve additional items for purchase. The supplier's price list may be updated regularly in response to market conditions, but not more than once every year, or upon

CO request. Price lists must be submitted to the CO for review and approval.

**The price list is established with the Contracting Officer at time of award and can be changed on a case-by-case basis IAW paragraph (3)(e)(i) above. Prices provided in the price list are baseline to establish the agreement and not indicative of the actual Price List

The Government also reserves the right to issue a call to any BPA holder directly at any time and for any reason during the life of this agreement. Neither of the methods described in this subparagraph will be the Government's standard operating procedure for this BPA program, but they will be enacted as determined necessary by the CO.

General Information: The Government plans to issue a single purchase order for the 3D Printer Materials & Supplies BPA. This is a firm-fixed-price type contract. The Contracting Officer (CO) is the sole point of contact for this acquisition. Address any questions or concerns you may have to the CO. Written requests for clarification may be sent to the CO at the address located on page 1 of the solicitation.

The Ombudsman for this acquisition is AFSC/PZC. This does not diminish the authority of the program director or CO, but communicates vendor concerns, issues, disagreements and recommendations to the appropriate Government personnel. When requested, the Ombudsman shall maintain strict confidentiality as to the source of the concern. The Ombudsman does not participate in the evaluation of quotations; interested parties are invited to call AFSC/PZC at 405- 736-3273.

General Instructions: This acquisition will be conducted under the procedures of FAR Part 12 -- Commercial Items and FAR Part 13 -- Simplified Acquisition Procedures. This acquisition will utilize technical acceptability and price as evaluation factors. Award will be given to the vendor who is technically acceptable with the lowest total evaluated price (TEP) and whose quote conforms to the solicitation requirements (to include all stated terms, conditions, representations, and certifications).

Vendors shall complete provisions/clauses as required. Vendors must complete the annual representations and certifications electronically via the System for Award Management (SAM) at https://www.sam.gov. After reviewing the SAM information, the vendor verifies by submission of their quotation that the representations and certifications currently posted electronically at FAR 52.212-3, Offeror Representations and Certifications - Commercial Items, are correct.

Tailored Instructions (FAR 52.212-1):

(a) North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code and small business size standard. The NAICS code and small business size standard for this acquisition appear on page 1 of the solicitation cover sheet of this solicitation. However, the small business size standard for a concern which submits a quotation in its own name, but which proposes to furnish an item which it did not manufacture itself, is 500 employees.

(b) Submission of quotations. Submit quotations to the office specified in this solicitation at or before the exact time specified in this solicitation. Quotations may be submitted on the solicitation, letterhead stationery, or as otherwise specified in the solicitation. As a minimum, quotations must show—

(1) The solicitation number;

(2) The time specified in the solicitation for receipt of quotations;

(3) The name, address, and telephone number of the vendor;

(4) A technical description of the items being quoted in sufficient detail to evaluate compliance with the requirements in the solicitation. This may include product literature, or other documents, if necessary;

(5) Terms of any express warranty;

(6) Price and any discount terms;

(7) “Remit to” address, if different than mailing address;

(8) A completed copy of the representations and certifications at FAR 52.212-3 (see FAR 52.212-3(b) for those representations and certifications that the vendor shall complete electronically);

(9) Acknowledgment of Solicitation Amendments;

(10) Past performance information, when included as an evaluation factor, to include recent and relevant contracts for the same or similar items and other references (including contract numbers, points of contact with telephone numbers and other relevant information); and

(11) If the quotation is not submitted on a Standard Form (SF) 1449, Solicitation/Contract/Order for Commercial Items, include a statement specifying the extent of agreement with all terms, conditions, and provisions included https://www.sam.gov/ https://www.acquisition.gov/sites/default/files/current/far/html/52_212_213.html#wp1179194 https://www.acquisition.gov/sites/default/files/current/far/html/52_212_213.html#wp1179194 in the solicitation. Quotations 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 90 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 quotations. 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 quotations. Vendors are encouraged to submit multiple quotations 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 quotation submitted will be evaluated separately.

(f) Late submissions, modifications, revisions, and withdrawals of quotations. We must receive your quotation at the address specified on page 1 by the deadline specified on page 1. We will not consider any quotation that we receive after the deadline unless we receive it before we issue a purchase order and consider it will not unduly delay our purchase. In case of an emergency that delays our operations and makes submission or receipt of your quotation impossible, we will extend the deadline by one working day.

(g) Issuance of purchase order. The Government intends to evaluate quotations and issue a purchase order without interchanges. Therefore, the vendor’s initial quotation should contain the vendor’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct interchanges with one, some, or all vendors if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may waive informalities and minor irregularities in quotations received. The Government reserves the right to reject any or all quotations, if such action is in the public interest.

(h) Multiple purchase orders. The Government may issue purchase orders for any item or group of items of a quotation, unless the vendor qualifies the quotation by specific limitations. Unless otherwise provided in the Schedule, quotations may not be submitted for quantities less than those specified. The Government reserves the right to issue a purchase order for a quantity less than the quantity quoted, at the unit price(s) quoted, unless the vendor specifies otherwise in the quotation.

(i) Availability of requirements documents cited in the solicitation. If the descriptions in this solicitation refer to any Government specification, standard, or commercial item description, you may obtain a copy of any such documents from the places listed in FAR 52.212-1, paragraph (i).

(j) Unique Entity Identifier (UEI). Applies to all quotations submitted in response to solicitations that require the vendor to be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database. Place your UEI that identifies the vendor’s name and address on page 7. Also, if applicable, place your Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) indicator on page 7. If you do not have a UEI, see FAR 52.212-1 paragraph (j) for instructions.

(k) Reserved.

(l) Notification to Unsuccessful Vendors. The successful Offeror will be notified by Contracting via email or phone call that they will receive the award. Unsuccessful Offerors may not be notified, but can find the award information, which will be posted at www.SAM.gov within 24 hours of award.

[End of provision]

52.212‐2 ‐‐ Evaluation – Commercial Items

Addendum to FAR 52.212-2 -- Evaluation – Commercial Items

1.0 Basis for Contract Award:

This acquisition will be conducted under the procedures of FAR Part 12 -- Commercial Items and FAR Part 13 -- Simplified Acquisition Procedures. In accordance with FAR 13.106-2(b)(1), the procedures prescribed in FAR Part 15 are not mandatory, and therefore, the evaluation procedures established herein are within the Contracting Officer’s broad discretion as applied under FAR Part 13. This acquisition will utilize technical acceptability and price as evaluation factors. Award will be made to the vendor who is technically acceptable with the lowest total evaluated price (TEP) and whose quotation conforms to the solicitation requirements (to include all stated terms, conditions, representations, and certifications). The Government intends to award without interchanges. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct interchanges if determined necessary by the Contracting Officer (ref. FAR 52.212-2 Addendum, section 1.3).

1.1 Solicitation Requirements (Terms and Conditions)

Vendors are required to meet all solicitation requirements, such as terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and Item Description requirements, in addition to the technical and price factors. Failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the solicitation may result in the vendor being ineligible for award. Vendors must clearly identify any exception to the solicitation terms and conditions and must provide complete supporting rationale. The Government reserves the right to determine any such exceptions unacceptable, and the quotation, therefore, ineligible for award.

1.2 Number of Contracts to be Awarded:

The Government intends to select several contractors for this Blanket Purchase Agreement. However, the Government reserves the right not to award a contract at all, depending on the quality of the quotation, prices submitted, and the availability of funds.

1.3 Interchanges

In accordance with FAR 1.102-2(c)(3) the Government shall exercise discretion, use sound business judgement, and comply with applicable laws and regulations during the course of this acquisition. The Government intends to award without interchanges, but reserves the right to conduct interchanges if necessary. Therefore, it is imperative that vendors submit their best terms initially. If during the evaluation of quotations, it is determined to be in the best interest of the Government to conduct interchanges, the Contracting Officer may conduct interchanges with one, some, or all vendors before issuing any purchase order.

Interchanges are information sharing between the Government and vendors after receipt of quotations which can be conducted to address any aspect of the quotation. Interchanges may be oral or written. Written interchanges take the form of Interchange Notices (IN)s. INs are used to accurately capture contemporaneous sharing of information. If interchanges are conducted, the Government may request final quotation revisions at the conclusion of interchanges.

2.0 Evaluation Factors Used to Evaluate Each Quotation:

2.1 Factor 1 – Technical

The Technical evaluation will be based on each’s vendor’s approach for meeting the technical requirements listed in the item description. The technical ratings are defined as follows:

Rating Description Acceptable Proposal meets the requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Proposal does not meet the requirements of the solicitation.

2.2. Factor 2 – Price

Price quotations will be evaluated as follows:

2.2.1 Completeness

Quotations will be reviewed for completeness. Incomplete quotes will be considered ineligible for award.

2.2.2 Price Reasonableness

The proposed prices will be evaluated for reasonableness. Reasonableness must represent a price to the Government a prudent person would pay in the conduct of competitive business. Normally, price reasonableness is established through adequate price competition but may also be determined through price analysis techniques as described in FAR 13.106- 3(a)(2).

2.2.3 Price Realism

The Government intends to determine price realism based on adequate price competition. In the event the Government cannot determine price realism based on adequate price competition, the Government reserves the right to conduct a more detailed price realism evaluation using one or more of the price analysis techniques described in FAR 13.106-3(a)(2). The Government may also use other evaluation techniques, as needed. To be realistic, the proposed price must demonstrate an adequate understanding of the requirement. Quoted prices that are determined to be unrealistically low due to an inadequate understanding of the requirement will make the quotation ineligible for award.

2.2.4 Unbalanced Pricing

Vendors’ quotations will be reviewed for unbalanced pricing. The Government will evaluate any supporting information provided by the vendor explaining variances that appear unbalanced. Evaluated quotes that are determined to be unbalanced may be deemed ineligible for award by the Contracting Officer if a determination is made that lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government. Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total price, the price of one or more line items (including sub line items) is significantly over or understated as demonstrated by application of price analysis techniques, such that:

a) There is reasonable doubt the quote would result in the lowest overall cost to the Government, even though it is the lowest priced quote; or

b) The quote is so grossly unbalanced; its acceptance would be tantamount to allowing an advanced payment.

2.2.5 Total Evaluated Price (TEP)

The TEP will be calculated as the sum of the total proposed prices for all separately priced line items (including sub line items). The total proposed price for each separately priced line item shall be calculated as the proposed unit price multiplied by the corresponding quantity.

The TEP will be used for evaluation purposes only.

The TEP will be calculated as the sum of the vendor’s proposed prices for all line items.

[End of provision]

52.212‐3 ‐‐ Offeror Representations and Certifications ‐‐ Commercial Items.

The Offeror shall complete only paragraphs (b) of this provision if the Offeror has completed the annual representations and certification electronically via the System for Award Management (SAM) Web site located at http://www.sam.gov/portal (Only complete and return if there are changes to current SAM Registration. If 52.212-3 is not returned the Offeror is affirming that the current SAM registration is current, accurate, and complete). If the Offeror has not completed the annual representations and certifications electronically, the Offeror shall complete only paragraphs (c) through (u) of this provision.
