SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION SF 1449 - CONTINUATION SHEET

The following have been modified:

ADDENDUM FAR 52.212-1

ADDENDUM TO FAR 52.212-1, INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS - COMMERCIAL ITEMS (SEP 2006)

Paragraph (b) entitled “Submission of Offers,” is tailored by adding the following:

(12) Each prospective vendor shall submit a statement with its proposal which shall:

Affirm that the assemblies it offers to supply conform to all the requirements of the AAR as of the date of the solicitation.

List the requirements of the AAR as of the date of solicitation with respect to the assembly as a whole and each component thereof.

Provide supporting documentation for each item on the list required above, either from the OTLR itself (e.g. the use of components found on a list of approved suppliers), or from the AAR ( e.g. a letter stating that an assembly or component has been found to meet the requirements of the OTLR), or from an independent testing facility (e.g. a test report that a component has been tested to and met the standard established by the AAR).

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 (e) entitled “Multiple Offers” is tailored to read: “The government will not consider multiple offers presenting alternate terms and conditions for satisfying the requirements of this solicitation.”

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.”
