OS3-Purchasing RFP SF30 Continuation Page Amendment A0007

GSQ02-14-RA0001 Page 2 of 3

1. The purpose of this Amendment A0007 is to provide the following:

a. Attachment 1 revision and replacement updates where noted.

b. Revised Sample Approved Part Number list is provided.

c. Proposal closing time has not been extended as a result of this Amendment.

d. Rejected proposals will not be eligible for further consideration.

e. Submission instructions for SF30 receipt acknowledgment.

2. The "Attachment_1_OS3_Price_Proposal_Sheet_Rd2_07072014" is the latest version of the market basket file enclosed as part of Amendment A0007. The items remain unchanged; however, to aid offerors in submitting an acceptable reverse auction submission, automated warnings and checks have been added to:

Cross-reference proposed items to the updated "Final Reviewed & Approved OS3 Market Basket Part Number Combinations_07072014" list

Flag potential discrepancies between the requested unit of issue/package quantity and the offered unit of issue/package quantity.

Provide a pivot table look-up tool to aid in the replacement of disapproved items.

Per the sample product description language: "(MANDATORY ABILITY ONE ITEM -- NO SUBSTITUTIONS WILL BE PERMITTED)" all offerors must propose AbilityOne items (with AbilityOne as the proposed manufacturer name and the corresponding AbilityOne part number), no substitutions will be accepted.

Prior to award, all projected awardee proposals will be manually reviewed to ensure compliance with the Javits-Wagner-O'Day (JWOD) Act and AbilityOne procurement list.

Failure to demonstrate 100% compliance with the JWOD/AbilityOne procurement list will result in the removal of your proposal from consideration for award.

3. The "Final OS3 Market Basket Part Number Combinations_07072014" reflects the latest version of the approved items list and is also provided. The "Removals.7.7.2014"

TAB reflects items that have been disapproved due to one of the following reasons:

Identified as ETS to an AbilityOne item as of the 4/2014 Consolidated ETS File Inaccurate Manufacturer/Part Number Combination (e.g. SP Richards / AVE1506

-- SP Richards is the wholesaler, Avery is the Manufacturer) Unacceptable Manufacturer Name (e.g. "Varies") Identified Non-TAA Compliant Item (e.g. Supplies Wholesalers V-sku remanufactured toner)

OS3-Purchasing RFP SF30 Continuation Page Amendment A0007

GSQ02-14-R-SA0001 Page 3 of 3

If you have proposed an item under review which has been determined to be a non-compliant item, eligible vendors will need to review the "Removals.7.7.2014" tab that have been disapproved and substitute an “approved” replacement from the approved list.

4. Additional clarifications follow:

a. Individual telephonic inquiries delay the evaluation process; please use email for questions and inquiries unless specifically requested to contact a designated point of contact (POC) telephonically. General notices will continue to be posted on FBO.gov.

b. Please adhere to stated instructions. If directed to submit to a particular email address it is not necessary to copy furnish other GSA personnel to ensure receipt or request confirmation.

c. Reverse Auctions instructions will be emailed under separate cover. Please check your spreadsheet for formula or price errors prior to submission during the open auction period(s).

d. In the event of any point-of-contact information (name, email, phone, address) has changed since your initial proposal, it is the vendor’s responsibility to provide updated information in order to communicate and correspond in a timely manner.

5. Vendors may submit acknowledgement of this Amendment by completing Blocks 8 and 15 of the SF30 page 1, signing where indicated and returning coverpage to

AmendA0007response@gsa.gov with Amendment A0007 in the subject line followed by your company name within 3 business days of receipt, or upon specific request by the Government.

6. All other terms and conditions remain unchanged.
