CONTRACTORS RESPONSIBILTY DETERMINATIONS:

An award will only be made to offeror that satisfies the general responsibility standards of FAR 9.104-1. To be eligible for award of a contract hereunder, offeror must be determined by the Contracting Officer to be a responsible prospective Contractor. To be determined responsible, a Contractor must:

a. Have adequate financial resources to perform the contract, or the ability to obtain them; A demonstration, through information such as bank references and financial information (e.g., most current annual balance sheet), that the offeror has adequate financial resources to perform the contract.

b. Be able to comply with the required or quote delivery or performance schedule, taking into consideration all existing commercial and governmental business commitments;

c. Have a satisfactory performance record;

d. Have a satisfactory record of integrity and business ethics;

f. Have the necessary production, construction, and technical equipment and facilities, or the ability to obtain them;

and

1.

The particular information requested will be specific to that offeror. For example, a offeror that the contracting officer is less familiar with may be required to provide information not required from another offeror. The contracting officer may consider a offeror’s inability to promptly respond to a request for information as an indication the offeror is nonresponsible since FAR 9.103(c) obligates prospective contractors to affirmatively demonstrate their responsibility. When the contracting officer requests responsibility information, the contracting officer’s request, the offeror’s response, and all related communications between the Government and offeror are solely for the purpose of determining whether the offeror is responsible. While the contracting officer may require the offeror to provide any information related to the standards at FAR 9.104-1, the following are examples of information that may be required:
