52.212-1 ADDENDUM: INSTRUCTIONS TO QUOTERS

GENERAL INTENTION. Marine Corps Installations – National Capital Region (MCI-NCR) has a requirement for Miscellaneous Mess Hall Equipment in accordance with FAR Parts 12 and 13, the MCI-NCR Regional Contracting Office is issuing a solicitation for the acquisition of Miscellaneous Mess Hall Equipment.

PROCUREMENT APPROACH: The Contractor’s quoted item descriptions shall reflect the characteristics and level of quality that will satisfy the Government’s need as described in the Schedule of Supplies/Services. A single firm-fixed price award will be issued and it is the Government’s intent to award on an “all-or-none” basis to satisfy this requirement.

REQUIRED DELIVERY: 30 Day ARO

TECHNICAL COMPLIANCE: To ensure technical compliance:

1. The quoter must clearly demonstrate that the license quoted meet the solictiation requirements as outlined in the Statement of Work. A mere statement that the quoter will meet the Government’s requirement is NOT sufficient.

SUBMISSION OF QUOTES:

Questions: All questions must be received by 14 Sep 2018 at 1:00 PM EDT. All questions submitted for this solicitation must be electronically sent to the following e-mail address: angelica.danner@usmc.mil.

Quotes shall be sent the following e-mail address: angelica.danner@usmc.mil.

(End of Addendum)

52.212-2 ADDENDUM: EVALUATION – COMMERCIAL ITEMS

EVALUATION. Award will be made to the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable quote. In accordance with FAR 15.101-2 (b)(1), past performance will be not evaluated. The Government intends to make a single Firm Fixed Price order to satisfy this requirement. The Government reserves the right to award no contract at all, depending on the quality of offers submitted.

The Government intends to evaluate quotes and award a contract without discussions with vendors. Vendors should not expect requests for clarification or additional information from the Government. Award will be based on the initial evaluation of quotes received in response to the solicitation. Therefore, quoters are cautioned that their initial quotes should contain their best terms from a technical and price standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions with vendors if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all quotes if such action is in the public interest; and may waive informalities and minor irregularities in quotes received.

Evaluation of quotes will be conducted on a lowest-priced, technically acceptable basis. All quotes will be evaluated first on price. The lowest priced quote will be evaluated for technical acceptability on an acceptable/unacceptable basis. If the lowest priced quote is found to be technically acceptable, then no further evaluations will be conducted and award will be made. If the lowest priced quote is not technically acceptable, the next lowest priced offer will be evaluated, and so on until a technically acceptable quote is found.

The following ratings/definitions will be utilized:

The Government may use information such as Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), DoD PPIRS and the FAPIIS data available from Government sources to evaluate a Quoter's past performance.

PRICING. Quoters shall provide pricing for all Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs). The Government intends to make a single award Firm Fixed Price (FFP) purchase order with FFP CLINs. The price quote should avoid ambiguities of inclusion, exclusion, or content.

The Government will evaluate Quoter’s quoted prices, but this factor will not be given an adjectival rating. Quotes will be evaluated on completeness, accuracy, and reasonableness. Evaluation of the quoted prices for the services will be based on a comparison of quoted prices received in response to the solicitation and may also be based on a comparison to the Independent Government Cost Estimate (IGCE) along with any other relevant price analysis techniques defined in FAR 15.404-1(b). Note, that while FAR Part 15 does not apply to this procurement, the price analysis techniques defined in FAR 15.404-1 will be utilized as appropriate, pursuant to the class deviation at FAR 8.404(d).

Reasonableness. For the price to be reasonable in its nature and amount, it should not exceed that which would be incurred by a prudent person in the conduct of a competitive business. Reasonableness takes into account the context of a given source selection, including current market conditions, general economic conditions, and other factors that affect the ability of a Quoter to perform the contract requirements. Normally, adequate price competition establishes a fair and reasonable price.

Completeness and Accuracy. The Government will review the pricing tables for completeness and accuracy. A determination will be made as to whether the Quoter properly completed the pricing tables. The Quoter’s quote will be checked for mathematical correctness to include the following:

1) Checking arithmetic in all computations; and

2) Ensuring all prices are summarized correctly.

(h) Certification Regarding Responsibility Matters (Executive Order 12689). (Applies only if the contract value is expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold.) The offeror certifies, to the best of its knowledge and belief, that the offeror and/or any of its principals--

(1) [ ___ ] Are, [ ___ ] are not presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, or declared ineligible for the award of contracts by any Federal agency;

(2) [ ___ ] Have, [ ___ ] have not, within a three-year period preceding this offer, been convicted of or had a civil judgment rendered against them for: commission of fraud or a criminal offense in connection with obtaining, attempting to obtain, or performing a Federal, state or local government contract or subcontract; violation of Federal or state antitrust statutes relating to the submission of offers; or commission of embezzlement, theft, forgery, bribery, falsification or destruction of records, making false statements, tax evasion, violating Federal criminal tax laws, or receiving stolen property; and

(4) [ ___ ] Have, [ ___ ] have not, within a three-year period preceding this offer, been notified of any delinquent Federal taxes in an amount that exceeds $3,500 for which the liability remains unsatisfied.

(i) Taxes are considered delinquent if both of the following criteria apply:

(A) The tax liability is finally determined. The liability is finally determined if it has been assessed. A liability is not finally determined if there is a pending administrative or judicial challenge. In the case of a judicial challenge to the liability, the liability is not finally determined until all judicial appeal rights have been exhausted.

(B) The taxpayer is delinquent in making payment. A taxpayer is delinquent if the taxpayer has failed to pay the tax liability when full payment was due and required. A taxpayer is not delinquent in cases where enforced collection action is precluded.

(ii) Examples.

(A) The taxpayer has received a statutory notice of deficiency, under I.R.C. §6212, which entitles the taxpayer to seek Tax Court review of a proposed tax deficiency. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek Tax Court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appear rights.

(B) The IRS has filed a notice of Federal tax lien with respect to an assessed tax liability, and the taxpayer has been issued a notice under I.R.C. §6320 entitling the taxpayer to request a hearing with the IRS Office of Appeals Contesting the lien filing, and to further appeal to the Tax Court if the IRS determines to sustain the lien filing. In the course of the hearing, the taxpayer is entitled to contest the underlying tax liability because the taxpayer has had no prior opportunity to contest the liability. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek tax court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights.

(C) The taxpayer has entered into an installment agreement pursuant to I.R.C. §6159. The taxpayer is making timely payments and is in full compliance with the agreement terms. The taxpayer is not delinquent because the taxpayer is not currently required to make full payment.

(D) The taxpayer has filed for bankruptcy protection. The taxpayer is not delinquent because enforced collection action is stayed under 11 U.S.C. §362 (the Bankruptcy Code).

(i) Certification Regarding Knowledge of Child Labor for Listed End Products (Executive Order 13126).
