This catalog serves as the established pricing standard at the time of contract award.

(b) Upward Adjustments: The Contractor may submit a written request for an upward price adjustment only if the OEM publishes an updated, official commercial catalog where the revised item price has increased by more than ten percent (10%) relative to the previously established baseline price for that corresponding item.

If the 10% threshold is met, the portion of the Contract Line-Item Number (CLIN) unit price directly attributable to the OEM catalog price shall be adjusted in direct proportion to the percentage change above the 10% threshold.

(c) Downward Adjustments: The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer in writing within thirty

(30) calendar days of the publication date of any decrease in the OEM's catalog price for any item under this contract. The CLIN unit price directly attributable to the OEM catalog price shall be reduced by the exact percentage of the downward catalog change. There is no threshold requirement for downward adjustments; the Government shall receive the benefit of any price reduction. If the Contractor fails to notify the Contracting Officer within the required thirty (30) days, the Government reserves the right to apply the downward adjustment retroactively to the exact publication date of the catalog price reduction, and the Contractor shall be fully liable to the Government for any resulting overpayments.

(d) Adjustment Limitation: No adjustment shall be made to the profit, overhead, or G&A portions of the CLIN unit price.

(e) Request Procedures & Documentation: To request an upward adjustment, the Contractor must submit a formal written request to the Contracting Officer containing, at a minimum:

1. A complete copy of the previously established (baseline) OEM catalog pricing.

2. A complete copy of the newly published OEM catalog pricing.

3. A detailed comparison table identifying the specific affected items, the old price, the new price, and the exact percentage change.

4. A signed certification stating that the new catalog prices are established commercial prices sold in substantial quantities to the general public, and that the same price changes have been applied uniformly to commercial customers.

(f) Government Rights & Execution: The Contracting Officer retains the right to request additional supporting documentation or verify the commercial catalog pricing prior to approval. Any agreed-upon unit price adjustment shall become effective only upon the date the Contracting Officer executes a bilateral contract modification. The adjusted price shall only apply to delivery orders or performance periods initiated on or after the effective date of the modification.

(g) Aggregate Limits: The aggregate of all upward adjustments made under this supplemental language during the life of this contract shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the original awarded CLIN unit price.

Proposals must demonstrate that the Offeror has a thorough understanding of all requirements and associated risks and is able, willing, and competent to devote the resources necessary to meet all requirements.

Price information, (e.g., dollar values and/or hourly rates) shall appear only in Volume 4 (Price), and Volume 5 (Contract Administration). Alternate proposals are not acceptable.

In presenting material in the proposal, the Offeror is advised that quality of information is more important than quantity. Clarity, brevity, and logical organization should be emphasized during proposal preparation. It is the responsibility of the Offeror to present enough information to allow the Government to evaluate its proposal without discussions. Unsubstantiated statements that the prospective Offeror understands, can or will comply with the specifications, or paraphrasing the requirements or parts thereof are considered inadequate and may render a rating of unacceptable.

c. Technical

The Offeror shall provide a summary of what is proposed for each technical element, describing the approach/or the proposed solution. In general, the description should be a short paragraph that provides only the factual description of what is proposed without adjectives or discussions of benefit. In a separate paragraph, identify significant features or approaches of its proposal that exceed requirements, enhance performance or operations, or reduce risk with benefit to the Government. Specifically identify where in the Technical Volume (e.g., paragraph and page number as a minimum) the details of these features or approaches are provided.

d. Terms and Conditions Submission of a signed offer to the Government constitutes agreement and acceptance of the terms and conditions of the solicitation.

An exception to the terms and conditions or proposed deviation will be considered a deficiency. A deficiency renders the Offeror’s proposal un-awardable. An exception occurs if/when an Offeror states it will not comply with a solicitation requirement, usually involving contract terms and conditions. A deviation is where an Offeror states it will not comply with a solicitation requirement but proposes an alternative to meet the intent of the requirement, usually involving a PWS requirement.
