The following have been modified:

ADDENDUM TO 52.212-1

ADDENDUM TO 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors – Commercial Products & Commercial Services

Note: Paragraphs and subparagraphs contained in 52.212-1 that are not addressed below remain unchanged by this addendum. Note: the term “offer” is synonymous with the term “quote” and “offeror” is synonymous with “vendor” as used within this solicitation.

(b) Submission of Offers, including all its subparagraphs, is changed to read as follows: Submit signed and dated offers to the emails specified in subparagraph (m)(3) at or before the exact date and time specified in Block 8 of the SF 1449. As a minimum, the offer must include the below listed items to be considered complete. Failure to submit a complete offer may result in the offer being ineligible for award.

(1) SF 1449: Complete the following Blocks on the SF 1449:

i. 12 – Discount Terms

ii. 17a – Vendor Name, Address, CAGE Code, and Telephone Number

iii. 17b (if applicable)

iv. 30a – Signature of authorized company official

v. 30b – Printed name and title of signer

vi. 30c – Date signed

(2) Cover Letter on company letterhead, signed by an officer of the company, which includes the following:

i. Solicitation number.

ii. Acknowledgement of each solicitation amendment by number. A generic acknowledgment such as

“we acknowledge all amendments” does not meet this requirement.

iii. Contractor and Government Entity (CAGE) Code or Unique Entity Identifier (UEI).

iv. “Remit to” address if Block 17b was checked on the SF 1449.

v. Identify the representative(s) authorized to contractually obligate the company. The identification must include name, title, telephone number, and email address.

vi. 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. All exceptions taken to any terms and conditions stated in the solicitation must be clearly outlined. The vendor also must include complete rationale, justification, and the price impact of each exception.

(3) Technical Capability Form provided as RFQ Attachment (5). The Technical Capability Form must include accurate, detailed information to demonstrate the vendor’s capability to fulfill the requirements in Attachment (1), Performance Work Statement (PWS). The Technical Capability Form shall not contain any pricing information. The Technical Capability Form submission is limited to 5 pages. All pages beyond page 5 will not be read or evaluated. Note: The Technical Capability Form will be incorporated into the contract by reference.

(4) Pricing Schedule. Price quote must be submitted using the Pricing Schedule provided as RFQ

Attachment (6). Do not submit any other pricing. The monthly unit prices in Column E reflect the vendor’s fully burdened firm fixed prices to accomplish the requirements in the PWS. All Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) must be priced to be considered a complete quote; only complete quotes will be evaluated.

All dollar values shall be expressed with no more than two places to the right of the decimal point (e.g., $100.29). If prices are submitted with more than two places after the decimal point, the Government will round up to the nearest hundredth (two places to the right of the decimal point) and the total amount proposed will be adjusted accordingly. For example, a price quote of $100.294 per month would be rounded up to $100.30 per month, and the total amount proposed would be $1,203.60.

(5) Representations and Certifications. Complete and submit the following fill-in representations and certifications:

i. FAR 52.204-24, Representation Regarding Certain Telecommunications and Video Surveillance

Services or Equipment

ii. FAR 52.212-3 Alternate I, Offeror Representations and Certifications – Commercial Products and

Commercial Services

iii. DFARS 252.204-7016, Covered Defense Telecommunications Equipment or Services –

Representation

iv. DFARS 252.204-7017, Prohibition on the Acquisition of Covered Defense Telecommunications

Equipment or Services – Representation

These representations and certifications shall be completed in the System for Award Management (SAM) database to the maximum extent practicable. If the representations and certifications are current and complete in SAM, the vendor need only state so in its offer, and does not need to submit the representation and certifications with the offer.

(6) Submit the offer in three separate electronic files, as follows:

i. SF1449, Cover Letter, and Representations & Certifications

ii. Technical Capability Form

iii. Pricing Schedule

All files shall be searchable and virus free.

(7) Vendor is responsible for ensuring and confirming that the contracting office received electronic proposal submission prior to the deadline in Block 8 of the SF 1449.

(c) Period for acceptance of offers is changed to read: The vendor agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 120 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of offers.

(h) Multiple awards is changed to read as follows: The Government intends to award one firm fixed price contract resulting from this solicitation. Offers must be submitted for all CLINs and quantities to be considered.

The following paragraphs are added to 52.212-1:

(m) General

(1) This acquisition is being conducted using procedures of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial Products and Commercial Services, and Subpart 13.5, Simplified Procedures for Certain Commercial Products and Commercial Services.
