ADDENDUM TO FEDERAL ACQUISITION REGULATION (FAR) 52.212-1 - INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS - COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS AND COMMERCIAL

SERVICES FEB 2026

The following paragraphs of FAR 52.212-1 are tailored as follows:

Paragraph (a) "Submission of offers" is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the "Proposal Preparation Instructions" below.

Paragraph (b) "Period for acceptance of offers" is tailored to read: The Offeror agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 240 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of offers.

Paragraph (d) "Contract award (not applicable to Invitation for Bids)" is tailored to read: The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without negotiations with Offerors. Therefore, the Offeror's initial offer should contain the Offeror's best terms. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct negotiations if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. If the Contracting Officer determines 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 may waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.

Paragraph (e)(7) is added and reads as follows: (e)(7) Debriefings may be provided in writing, orally, or in person, at the Government's discretion.

(4) Proposals shall be submitted via email to the individuals listed in paragraph (a)(6) by the due date specified above. Proposal submissions shall not exceed 20mb per email.

The Government will make all reasonable attempts to promptly confirm proposal receipt and accessibility. If the Offeror fails to obtain confirmation of receipt and accessibility within two business days of proposal submission, the Offeror should assume the Government did not receive the proposal and contact the Contracting Officer and Contract Specialist.
