SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION SF 1449 - CONTINUATION SHEET

SOLICITATION/CONTRACT FORM

The Acquisition Set Aside has changed from Hubzone Small Business to Small Business.

The following have been modified:

INSTUCTIONS TO OFFERORS

1 Synopsis: This is a Combined Synopsis/Solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a separate written solicitation will not be issued.

2 Brand Name or Equal Product: This is a Competitive Brand Name or Equal solicitation under FAR Part 12 using FAR Part 13 procedures for a firm-fixed price contract for the purchase of Server Storage HD’s.

6 Small Business Setaside: This requirement is setaside to small businesses. The applicable NAICS is 541519 and the size standard is $27.5. The non-manufacturer (NMR) rule does not apply as detailed in FAR 19.102(f).

7 Market Research: Market research conducted via World Wide Web (WWW), GSA Advantage revealed that there is a reasonable expectation of obtaining two or more offers from small business concerns.

Marine Forces Reserve Small Business Program Deputy Director concurs with this action.

41 Basis of Single Award - Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) - Offers will be ranked lowest to highest according to price. The lowest price offer will be forwarded to the requiring activity for technical evaluation (offer will be deemed either technically acceptable or technically unacceptable). If the lowest price offer is found technically acceptable and its price is determined fair and reasonable by the Contracting Officer, evaluation will be deemed complete and award will be made based on the lowest price offer. If the lowest price offer is determined technically unacceptable, the next lowest price offer will be sent for technical evaluation and price analysis. This process is repeated in order of price until an offer is deemed technically acceptable and price is determined fair and reasonable.
