INFORMATION FOR ORDERING OFFICES
SPECIAL NOTICE TO AGENCIES:
Small Business Participation
SBA strongly supports the participation of small business concerns in the Federal Supply Schedules Program. To enhance Small Business Participation SBA 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 micro-purchase threshold, FAR 8.404 requires agencies to consider the catalogs/pricelists of at least three schedule contractors or consider reasonably available information using the GSA Advantage! TM on-line shopping service (www.fss.gsa.gov). The catalogs/pricelists, GSA Advantage! TM and the Federal Supply Service Home Page (www.fss.gsa.gov) 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 micro-purchase threshold, customers are to give preference to small business concerns when two or more items at the same delivered price will satisfy their requirement.
1. GEOGRAPHIC SCOPE OF CONTRACT: The geographic scope of this contract is the 48 contiguous states; the

12. USE OF FEDERAL SUPPLY SERVICE INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SCHEDULE CONTRACTS. In accordance with FAR 8.404:
[NOTE: Special ordering procedures have been established for Special Item Number (SIN) 132-51 IT Professional Services; refer to the terms and conditions for that SIN.]
Orders placed pursuant to a Multiple Award Schedule (MAS), using the procedures in FAR 8.404, are considered to be issued pursuant to full and open competition. Therefore, when placing orders under Federal Supply Schedules, ordering office s need not seek further competition, synopsize the requirement, make a separate determination of fair and reasonable pricing, or conside r small business set-asides in accordance with subpart 19.5 GSA has already determined the prices of items under schedul e contracts to be fair and reasonable. By placing an order against a schedule using the procedures outlined below, the ordering office has concluded that the order represents the best value and results in the lowest overall cost alternative (considering price, special features, administrative costs, etc.) to meet the Government’s needs.
a. Orders placed at or below the micro-purchase threshold. Ordering offices can place orders at or below the micro-purchase threshold with any Federal Supply Schedule Contractor.
b. Orders exceeding the micro-purchase threshold but not exceeding the maximum order threshold. Orders should be placed with the Schedule Contractor that can provide the supply or service that represents the best value. Before placing an order, ordering offices should consider reasonably available information about the supply or service offered under MAS contracts by using the “GSA Advantage!” on-line shopping service, or by reviewing the catalogs/pricelists of at least three Schedule
Contractors and selecting the delivery and other options available under the schedule that meets the agency’s needs. In selecting the supply or service representing the best value, the ordering office may consider--
Contract Number - GS-35F-5400H - 7 -
(1) Special features of the supply or service that are required in effective program performance and that are not provided by a comparable supply or service;
(2) Trade-in considerations;
(3) Probable life of the item selected as compared with that of a comparable item;
(4) Warranty considerations;
(5) Maintenance availability;
(6) Past performance, and
(7) Environmental and energy efficiency considerations.
c. Orders exceeding the maximum order threshold. Each schedule contract has an established maximum order threshold. This threshold represents the point where it is advantageous for the ordering office to seek a price reduction. In addition to following the procedures in paragraph b, above, and before placing an order that exceeds the maximum order threshold, ordering offices shall--
(1) Review additional Schedule Contractor’s catalogs/pricelists or use the “GSA Advantage!” on-line shopping service;
(2) Based upon the initial evaluation, generally seek price reductions from the Schedule Contractor (s) appearing to provide the best value (considering price and other factors); and
(3) After price reductions have been sought, place the order with the Schedule Contractor that provides the best value and re sults in the lowest overall cost alternative. If further price reductions are not offered, an order may still be placed if the ordering office determines that it is appropriate.
NOTE: For orders exceeding the maximum order threshold, the Contractor may:
(1) Offer a new lower price for this requirement (the Price Reduction clause is not applicable to orders placed over the Maximum
Order in FAR 52.216-19 Order Limitations.)
(2) Offer the lowest price available under the contract; or
(3) Decline the order (orders must be returned in accordance with FAR 52.216-19).
d. Price Reductions. In addition to the circumstances outlined in paragraph c, above, there may be instances when ordering offices will find it advantageous to request a price reduction. For example, when the ordering office finds a schedule supply or service elsewhere at a lower price or when a BPA is being established to fill recurring requirements, requesting a p rice reduction could be advantageous. The potential volume of orders under these agreements, regardless of the size of the individual order, may offer the ordering office the opportunity to secure greater discounts. Schedule Contractors are not required to pass on to all schedule users a price reduction extended only to an individual agency for a specific order.
e. Small business. For orders exceeding the micro-purchase threshold, ordering offices should give preference to small business concerns when two or more items at the same delivered price will satisfy the requirement.
f. Documentation. Orders should be documented, at a minimum, by identifying the Contractor the item was purchased from, the item purchased, and the amount paid. If an agency requirement in excess of the micro-purchase threshold is defined so as to require a particular brand name, product, or feature of a product peculiar to one manufacturer, thereby precluding considerat ion of a product manufactured by another company, the ordering office shall include an explanation in the file as to why the particular brand name, product, or feature is essential to satisfy the agency’s needs.

22. YEAR 2000 WARRANTY - COMMERCIAL SUPPLY ITEMS:
(I-FSS-550-A)(AUG 1997)

Furthermore, Year 2000 compliant information technology, when used in combination with other information technology, shall accurately process date/time if the other information technology properly exchanges date/time data with it.
Contract Number - GS-35F-5400H - 10 -
(a) All currently awarded products that are not Year 2000 compliant must be deleted from this contract no later than December
31, 1999.
(b) Any contract modifications, adding new items under clause 552.243-72, Modifications (Multiple Award Schedule), must meet the warranty requirement in paragraph c, below.
(c) The Contractor warrants that each hardware, software, and firmware product delivered under this contract shall be able t o accurately process date data (including, but not limited to, calculating, comparing, and sequencing) from, into, and between the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, including leap year calculations, when used in accordance with the product documentation provided by the Contractor, provided that all listed or unlisted products (e.g. hardware, software, firmware) used in combina tion with such listed product properly exchange date data with it. If the contract requires that specific listed products must pe rform as a system in accordance with the foregoing warranty, then that warranty shall apply to those listed products as a system. The duration of this warranty and the remedies available to the Government for breach of this warranty shall be as defined in, and subject to, the terms and limitations of the Contractor’s standard commercial warranty or warranties contained in this contra ct, provided that notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in such commercial warranty or warranties, the remedies availa ble to the Government under this warranty shall include repair or replacement of any listed product whose non-compliance is discovered or made known to the Contractor in writing within ninety (90) days after acceptance. Nothing in this warranty shall be co nstrued to limit any rights or remedies the Government may otherwise have under this contract with respect to defects other than Year
2000 performance.
23. BLANKET PURCHASE AGREEMENTS (BPAs):
Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 13.201(a) defines Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPAs) as “…a simplified method of filling anticipated repetitive needs for supplies or services by establishing ‘charge accounts’ with qualified sources of sup ply.”
The use of Blanket Purchase Agreements under the Federal Supply Schedule Program is authorized in accordance with FAR
13.202(c) (3), which reads, in part, as follows:
“BPAs may be established with Federal Supply Schedule Contractors, if not inconsistent with the terms of the applicable sched ule contract.”
Federal Supply Schedule contracts contain BPA provisions to enable schedule users to maximize their administrative end purchasing savings. This feature permits schedule users to set up “accounts” with Schedule Contractors to fill recurring requirements. These accounts establish a period for the BPA and generally address issues such as the frequency of ordering and invoicing, authorized callers, discounts, delivery locations and time. Agencies may qualify for the best quantity/volume disc ounts available under the contract, based on the potential volume of business that may be generated through such an agreement, regardless of the size of individual orders. In addition, agencies may be able to secure a discount higher than that availabl e in the contract based on the aggregate volume of business possible under a BPA. Finally, Contractors may be open to a progressive type of discounting where the discount would increase once the sales accumulated under the BPA reach certain prescribed levels. Use of a BPA may be particularly useful with the new Maximum Order feature. See the Suggested Format, contained in this Schedule
Pricelist, for customer to consider when using this purchasing tool.
24. CONTRACTOR TEAM ARRANGEMENTS:
Federal Supply Schedule Contractors may use “Contractor Team Arrangements” (see FAR 9.6) to provide solutions when responding to a customer agency requirements. The policy and procedures outlined in this part will provide more flexibility a nd allow innovative acquisition methods when using the Federal Supply Schedules. See the additional information regarding
Contractor Team Arrangements in this Schedule Pricelist.
