(11) If the offer is not submitted on the SF 1449, include 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.

(c) Period for acceptance of offers. The offeror agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 30 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of offers, unless another time period is specified in an addendum to the solicitation.

(d) Product samples. When required by the solicitation, product samples shall be submitted at or prior to the time specified for receipt of offers. Unless otherwise specified in this solicitation, these samples shall be submitted at no expense to the Government, and returned at the sender's request and expense, unless they are destroyed during preaward testing.

(e) Multiple offers. Offerors are encouraged to submit multiple offers presenting alternative terms and conditions, including alternative line items (provided that the alternative line items are consistent with subpart 4.10 of the

Federal Acquisition Regulation), or alternative commercial items for satisfying the requirements of this solicitation.

Each offer submitted will be evaluated separately.

(f) Late submissions, modifications, revisions, and withdrawals of offers:

(1) Offerors are responsible for submitting offers, and any modifications, revisions, or withdrawals, so as to reach the Government office designated in the solicitation by the time specified in the solicitation. If no time is specified in the solicitation, the time for receipt is 4:30 p.m., local time, for the designated Government office on the date that offers or revisions are due.

(2)(i) Any offer, modification, revision, or withdrawal of an offer received at the Government office designated in the solicitation after the exact time specified for receipt of offers is “late” and will not be considered unless it is received before award is made, the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late offer would not unduly delay the acquisition; and--

(A) If it was transmitted through an electronic commerce method authorized by the solicitation, it was received at the initial point of entry to the Government infrastructure not later than 5:00 p.m. one working day prior to the date specified for receipt of offers; or

(B) There is acceptable evidence to establish that it was received at the Government installation designated for receipt of offers and was under the Government's control prior to the time set for receipt of offers; or

(C) If this solicitation is a request for proposals, it was the only proposal received.

(ii) However, a late modification of an otherwise successful offer, that makes its terms more favorable to the

Government, will be considered at any time it is received and may be accepted.

(3) Acceptable evidence to establish the time of receipt at the Government installation includes the time/date stamp of that installation on the offer wrapper, other documentary evidence of receipt maintained by the installation, or oral testimony or statements of Government personnel.

(4) If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal Government processes so that offers cannot be received at the Government office designated for receipt of offers by the exact time specified in the solicitation, and urgent

Government requirements preclude amendment of the solicitation or other notice of an extension of the closing date, the time specified for receipt of offers will be deemed to be extended to the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day on which normal Government processes resume.

(5) Offers may be withdrawn by written notice received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of offers.

Oral offers in response to oral solicitations may be withdrawn orally. If the solicitation authorizes facsimile offers, offers may be withdrawn via facsimile received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of offers, subject to the conditions specified in the solicitation concerning facsimile offers. An offer may be withdrawn in person by an offeror or its authorized representative if, before the exact time set for receipt of offers, the identity of the person requesting withdrawal is established and the person signs a receipt for the offer.

(g) Contract award (not applicable to Invitation for Bids). 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. 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.

(h) Multiple awards. The Government may accept any item or group of items of an offer, unless the offeror qualifies the offer by specific limitations. Unless otherwise provided in the Schedule, offers may not be submitted for quantities less than those specified.

EVAL-COMMERCIAL ITEMS-ADDENDUM

52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS--ADDENDUM

Basis for contract award - This acquisition is being conducted under FAR Parts 12 and 13.5. Offers will be evaluated using the factors identified in FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation – Commercial items. Noncompliance may be grounds to eliminate the proposal from consideration for contract award. Award will be made utilizing a Lowest Price

Technically Acceptable (LPTA) source selection method. By submission of its offer in accordance with the https://www.acquisition.gov/ instructions provided in clause FAR 52.212-1, Instructions To Offerors, the offeror agrees to the terms of this solicitation.

Specifically, the evaluation process shall proceed as follows:

The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

First, the quotes will be ranked in order from lowest to highest based on the price. The lowest priced quotation will then be evaluated and receive a rating of Acceptable or Unacceptable based on the criteria below. In order to be rated as Acceptable, the Technical quote must meet the government's minimum requirements as described in the schedule. Quotes deemed Unacceptable are those that fail to meet the Government's minimum requirements.

Past performance will then be evaluated and assigned a rating of Acceptable or Unacceptable. In order to be rated as

Acceptable, the past performance must present a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror’s performance record is unknown.

If the lowest priced offeror’s Technical quote and past performance are rated acceptable, the government will then evaluate pricing to determine fair and reasonableness per FAR 13.106-3.

If the lowest priced quotation is evaluated to have an acceptable technical quote, acceptable past performance, and fair and reasonable prices, per FAR 13.106-3, the Government will complete a responsibility determination IAW the criteria specified in FAR 9.104-1. If found responsible, the Government may stop the evaluation process at this point as that quote represents the best value to the Government. Award shall be made to that offeror without further consideration of any other offers.

If the lowest priced quotation is assigned an unacceptable rating, or if the price is determined not fair and reasonable or if the quoter is found to be non-responsible, the next lowest priced quote will be evaluated. This process will continue (in ascending order) until an offeror is evaluated to have an acceptable technical rating, fair and reasonable prices and the offeror is deemed responsible or until all offers have been evaluated.

The government reserves the right to evaluate all quotes. The award will be made to the offeror whose proposal represents the best value to the government on a LPTA basis, factoring in price and non-price factors – Technical

Capability and Past Performance.

Factor 1: Technical Each offeror’s technical proposal will be evaluated as Acceptable or Unacceptable as defined below:

Technical Acceptable/Unacceptable Ratings Rating Description Acceptable Proposal clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Proposal does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Factor 2: Price

In order to be considered for award, price must be determined fair and reasonable and balanced (or if unbalanced pricing exists that it does not pose an unacceptable risk to the government) using one or more techniques set forth in

FAR 15.404-1(b)(2).

Factor 3: Past Performance

The government will conduct a performance risk assessment the offeror’s record of past and current performance, as well as that of its proposed subcontractors and team member as it relates to the probability of successfully performing the requirements of the solicitation. The past performance evaluation will consider the offeror's demonstrated recent (within the past three years) and relevant (providing the items identified in the schedule) record of performance in supplying supplies that meet the solicitation’s requirements. Offerors are advised that in conducting the past performance assessment, the government may use data provided in the Offeror’s proposal and data obtained from other sources.

Past performance will be rated on an “acceptable” or “unacceptable” basis.

Past Performance Evaluation Ratings Rating Description Acceptable Based on the offeror’s performance record, the

Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror’s performance record is unknown. (See note below.)

Unacceptable Based on the offeror’s performance record, the

Government has no reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

Note: In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “unknown” shall be considered “acceptable.”

The government reserves the right to award no contract at all depending on the quality of the quotes submitted and availability of funds for the requirement. The government intends to evaluate proposals and award a single contract without requesting or accepting revised proposals. Therefore, the offerors will be advised that their initial offer should contain the most favorable terms and reflect its best possible performance potential. The government does reserve the right to clarify aspects of the proposals and hold discussions.

All proposals are to be submitted electronically to tricia.murray@usmc.mil or may be hand carried or delivered to:
