Notes:

[1] Items are for audio wiring using CAT5 cable conforming to the StudioHub standard. DMA wishes to have cabling of this signal type be a consistent jacket color. Believe Angry Audio's

StudioHub jumpers are "blue", but whatever color they are, they should drive the color to be selected for the remaining items.

[2] Items are for network wiring using CAT6. DMA wishes to have the network cabling and boots a different color from what is determined to be for the audio StudioHub wiring. Vendor may choose the color.

52.212-1 INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS—COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS AND COMMERCIAL

SERVICES (MAR 2023) (Addendum)

In addition to the instructions in FAR 52.212-1 – for the quotation preparation/submission instructions, the following addendum is applicable:

Instructions To Offerors

This RFQ is a total small-business set aside with applicable NAICS Code 334220, Radio and Television

Broadcasting and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing, with a corresponding Small Business Size

Standard of 1250 employees.

Quotes are due by 10:00AM EST on Sept 18, 2023. The quote shall remain valid for 90 calendar days from the

RFQ due date.

Questions are due by 10:00AM EST on Sept 11, 2023. Offerors shall submit questions to the Contract Specialist and Contracting Officer identified below.

Verbal questions will NOT be accepted. Any questions received, and subsequent answers, will be posted to

SAM.gov for the benefit of all interested parties.

Any correspondence outside of SAM.gov shall reference "Radio Studio Refresh RFQ” in the subject line of your email via email to Contract Specialist, Courtney Russell at courtney.r.russell.civ@mail.mil and Contracting Officer, Colette Day at colette.b.day.civ@mail.mil.

Basis of Award:

Award of the task order will be made on a competitive basis using the “lowest price, technically acceptable” (LPTA) approach. The government will first identify the lowest priced vendor. If the lowest priced vendor’s quote is determined technically acceptable, no further evaluations will be conducted and the award will be granted to the offeror. However, if the lowest priced vendor is not technically acceptable, the government will proceed to review the next lowest priced offeror for technical acceptability. This process will continue until both lowest price and technical acceptability is achieved.

Other General Information

The Government intends to establish a contract without further communicating with offerors. Consequently, offerors are highly encouraged to quote their best technical and pricing quotes in their initial submissions. However, the

Government reserves the right to communicate with any or all quotes submitting a technical and price quote, if it is determined advantageous to the Government to do so. This statement is not to be construed to mean that the

Government is obligated to communicate with every quoter (note that FAR Part 15 procedures will not apply, therefore formal discussions are not applicable). An offeror may be eliminated from consideration without further communication if its technical and/or pricing quotes are not among those offerors considered most advantageous to the Government based on a best value determination.

This RFQ in no way obligates the Government to award a contract or to reimburse a Contractor for any costs incurred in preparing the response to this RFQ. Offerors are advised to take proper steps to ensure timely submission of their quotes. It is the sole responsibility of the offeror to ensure that the electronic files submitted are virus free and can be opened and read by the Government. If the electronic files cannot be opened, and read by the

Government, the offeror shall have one business day after notification of same, to correct the deficiency. After that time, if the electronic files cannot be opened and read by the Government, the quote may be rejected and not evaluated further.

Any quote, modification, or revision, that is received after the exact time specified for receipt of quotes is “late” and may not be considered unless it is received before award is made, the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late quote would not unduly delay the acquisition, and there is acceptable evidence to establish that it was received at the Government installation designated for receipt of quotes and was under the Government’s control prior to the times set for receipt of quotes, or it was the only quote received. Quotes shall also be uploaded to

SAM.gov.

Note: All vendors must be actively registered in https://sam.gov/ to be eligible for award.

Submission Requirements (to include administrative requirements):

1) The Offer (SF1449) duly executed with an original signature by an official authorized to bind the company.

2) Technical Capability Statement

3) Price Quote

4) Sign all amendments to the solicitation, (Amendment form(s) SF1449), if applicable

5) “SAM Representations and Certifications” fully completed in SAM.gov, and verify that the offeror is a small-business business in the NAICS code for this requirement, which is 334220, with a corresponding Small Business Size Standard of 1250 employees.

Offerors shall assume that the Government has no prior knowledge of their facilities and experience and will base its evaluation on the information presented in the Offeror's quote. The quote shall be clear, concise, and include sufficient detail for effective evaluation and for substantiating the validity of stated claims. The quote should demonstrate the Offeror's understanding of the scope of required services. The quote should not simply rephrase or restate the Government's requirements, but rather shall provide convincing rationale that addresses how the Offeror intends to meet or exceed these requirements.

Note: If the offer is not submitted on the SF 1449, include a statement specifying the extent of agreement with all terms, conditions, and provisions included in the solicitation. Offers that fail to furnish required representations or information, or reject the terms and conditions of the solicitation may be excluded from consideration.
