Brief Description of Item

Unison Marketplace’s electronic commerce services, which includes online reverse auction or Reverse eAuction services provides buyers with a complete, online, dynamic procurement process. The Unison Marketplace® Reverse eAuction service is a commercially available online procurement service that allows sellers of commercial items to the government to compete against each other on the Internet in real time and in an open and interactive environment that safeguards each seller’s identity and pricing.

Through this service, the Contractor provides users with access to the online community of buyers and sellers located at www.UnisonMarketplace.com and provides buyers with associated onsite and remote support services required to facilitate dynamic competitive acquisition. The Contractor’s Reverse eAuction service operates by enabling buyers to publicize, or post, specifications for commercial items required by an agency and then to notify potential sellers of the opportunity. Once notified, sellers are able to submit bids through the Contractor’s Reverse eAuction system. Throughout this process, the Contractor maintains the confidentiality of competing seller identities and pricing data, promoting active, real-time competition among sellers by informing bidders only whether they are in the LEAD or LAG position. The LEAD/LAG notifications, while protecting process integrity, are sufficient to encourage significant competition among sellers, which are able to re-bid at any time during the Reverse eAuction process in order to obtain the LEAD position. Buyers may select any of the participating sellers in accordance with the terms of the Reverse eAuction and the buyer’s acquisition regulations. Once the buyer selects a seller, the Contractor notifies both the selected seller and the other unselected sellers of the decision. If a selected seller’s post-award performance is less than satisfactory, buyers may also submit through the Contractor’s Reverse eAuction system Seller Notes, which may be viewed by other buyers.

Negotiated Unit Price (NET PRICE) for the Product or Service

Once the buyer: i) determines that the results of the Unison Marketplace® Reverse eAuction have met the competition, savings and other buyer generated criteria for the procurement and ii) selects a winning seller from those results, the buyer issues an order to the selected seller for delivery of the commercial items. When the buyer receives the procured items, it pays to the selected seller the total bid amount. Contractor then collects from the selected seller the transactional fee, which consists of not more than 3.93% of the transaction. The buyer reserves the right to pay the transactional fee directly to Unison Marketplace.

Unison Marketplace will adjust its fee downward to address situations in which the buyer has met its competition and other procurement goals through Unison Marketplace but the fee has caused the selected seller’s bid to exceed a target price based on an actual market research quote or official published contract price. In such cases, Unison Marketplace will attempt to contact the buyer through the buyer’s preferred form of communication (email, telephone, or both) to confirm that the target price was based on an actual market research quote or official published contract price. Upon receipt of such confirmation from the buyer, Unison Marketplace will reduce or remove its fee so that the awarded price will not exceed the target price. In situations where the buyer awards above the target price, the target price will be void and Unison Marketplace reserves the right to collect their full fee.

Discounts:

Dollar Volume Discount: Discounts: For all Unison Marketplace buys with a selected bid amount, exclusive of the Unison Marketplace fee, of more than $461,832.06, the maximum transactional fee will be 3.93% for the first $461,832.06 and 0% for any amount over $461,832.06.

Schedule Price Discount: Upon notification from a seller that the inclusion of the Unison Marketplace fee has caused the seller’s bid to exceed that seller’s GSA schedule contract price, Unison Marketplace will reduce or remove its fee so that the seller’s bid will not exceed the seller’s schedule price.

Institutions: Shall receive the same discounts, terms and conditions as all other Government customers.

Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPAs)

The use of BPAs under any schedule contract to fill repetitive needs for supplies or services is allowable. BPAs may be established with one or more schedule contractors. The number of BPAs to be established is within the discretion of the ordering activity establishing the BPA and should be based on a strategy that is expected to maximize the effectiveness of the BPA(s). Ordering activities shall follow FAR 8.405-3 when creating and implementing BPA(s).

Contractor Team Arrangements

Contractors participating in contractor team arrangements must abide by all terms and conditions of their respective contracts. This includes compliance with Clauses 552.238-74, Industrial Funding Fee and Sales Reporting, i.e., each contractor (team member) must report sales and remit the IFF for all products and services provided under its individual contract.

Commitment to Small Business

SPECIAL NOTICE TO AGENCIES: Small Business Participation

SBA strongly supports the participation of small business concerns in the Federal Acquisition Service. To enhance Small Business Participation SBA policy allows agencies to include in their procurement base and goals, the dollar value of orders expected to be placed against the Federal Supply Schedules, and to report accomplishments against these goals.

For orders exceeding the micropurchase threshold, FAR 8.404 requires agencies to consider the catalogs/pricelists of at least three schedule contractors or consider reasonably available information by using the GSA Advantage! on-line shopping service (www.gsaadvantage.gov).

The catalogs/pricelists, GSA Advantage! and the Federal Acquisition Service Home Page (www.gsa.gov/fas) contain information on a broad array of products and services offered by small business concerns.

This information should be used as a tool to assist ordering activities in meeting or exceeding established small business goals. It should also be used as a tool to assist in including small, small disadvantaged, and women-owned small businesses among those considered when selecting pricelists for a best value determination.

For orders exceeding the micropurchase threshold, customers are to give preference to small business concerns when two or more items at the same delivered price will satisfy their requirement.
