1. INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS – COMMERCIAL ITEMS

(JAN 2006)

Paragraph (b) entitled “Submission of Offers” is deleted in its entirety and replaced with paragraph 2, “Proposal Preparation Instructions”, below.

Paragraph (c) entitled “Period for acceptance of offers”, is tailored to read: “ The offeror agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 120 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of offers.”

Paragraph (g) entitled “Contract award (not applicable to Invitation for Bids).” is tailored to read: “The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror’s initial offer should contain the offeror’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. If the Contracting Officer determines that the number of proposals that would otherwise be in the competitive range exceeds the number at which an efficient competition can be conducted, the Contracting Officer may limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.”

Paragraph (h) entitled “Multiple awards” is tailored to read: “The Government intends to award one contract as a result of this solicitation. Unless otherwise provided in the Schedule, offers may not be submitted for quantities less than those specified. The Government reserves the right to make an award on any item for a quantity less than the quantity offered, at the unit prices offered, unless the offeror specifies otherwise in the offer.”

2. PROPOSAL PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS

A. General Information

1) To assure timely and equitable evaluation of proposals, offerors must follow the instructions contained herein. Offerors are required to meet all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements. Failure to meet a requirement may result in an offer being ineligible for award. Offerors must clearly identify any exception to the solicitation terms and conditions and provide complete accompanying rationale. The response shall consist of four (4) separate parts: Part I – Price Proposal, Part II – Past Performance Information, Part III – Technical Proposal, Part IV – Subcontracting Plan and Contract Documentation.

2) The contracting officer has determined there is a high probability of adequate price competition in this acquisition. Upon examination of the initial offers, the contracting officer will review this determination and if, in the contracting officer’s opinion, adequate price competition exists no additional cost information will be requested and certification under FAR 15.406-2 will not be required. However, if at any time during this competition the contracting officer determines that adequate price competition no longer exists offerors may be required to submit information to the extent necessary for the contracting officer to determine the reasonableness of the price.

3) The proposal shall be clear, concise, and shall include sufficient detail for effective evaluation and for substantiating the validity of stated claims. The proposal should not simply rephrase or restate the Government’s requirements, but rather shall provide convincing rationale to address how the offeror intends to meet these requirements. Offerors shall assume that the Government has no prior knowledge of their corporation and experience, and will base its evaluation on the information presented in the offeror’s proposal.

4) Documents submitted in response to this RFP must be fully responsive to and consistent with the following:

(a) Requirements of the RFP (Contract Line Items (CLINs) & Performance Work Statement (PWS), and government standards and regulations pertaining to the PWS.
