ADDENDUM TO 52.212-1

Attachment 1

ADDENDUM 52-212.1 – Instructions to Offerors – Commercial Items

1. Multiple Offers

The Regional Contracting Office, National Capital Region (RCO-NCR) does not encourage offerors to submit multiple offers presenting alternative terms and conditions for satisfying the requirements of this solicitation.

2. Overview

The Government intends to award a single Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contract for a one (1) base year as a result of the solicitation.

Each Offeror shall submit a proposal that clearly and concisely describes its response to the requirements of the solicitation. Use of general or vague statements such as “standard procedures will be used” will not satisfy this requirement. Unnecessary elaboration or presentations beyond what is sufficient to present a complete and effective solution are not desired and may be construed as a lack of understanding of the requirement.

3. Guidance

Proposals must be prepared in accordance with these instructions. Failure to do so will result in the

Offeror’s submission being determined to be unacceptable and ineligible for award.

Each Offeror’s submission shall be screened by the Contracting Officer upon receipt to ensure completeness and compliance with the instructions contained in the Request for Proposals (RFP).

Elimination of an Offeror is at the sole discretion of the Contracting Officer.

The purpose of this procurement is to obtain Design, Fabrication, and Installation services. The services are necessary in efforts to expand the existing Marine Corps story beyond the Vietnam Gallery, the Final

Phase project. This project entails the creation of new galleries that will extend the story line from 1976 to present day. Doing so, requires the addition of and/or update other related themed displays.

4. Confidential Information

The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and its amendments have resulted in an increasing number of requests from outside the Government for copies of contract qualifications and proposals submitted to federal agencies. If an Offeror’s submissions contain information that he/she believes should be withheld from such requestors under FOIA on the grounds that they contain “trade secrets and commercial or financial information” (5USC 552(b)(4), the Offeror should mark its submissions in the following manner:

The following notice should be placed on the title page: “Some parts of this document, as identified on individual pages, are considered by the submitter to be privileged or confidential trade secrets or commercial or financial information not subject to mandatory disclosure under the Freedom of

Information Act. Material considered privileged or confidential on such grounds is contained on page(s)_______.”

Each individual item considered privileged or confidential under FOIA should be marked with the following notice: “The data or information is considered confidential or privileged, and is not subject to mandatory disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act.”
