Addendum to 52.212-1 Instructions to Contractors

This procurement action is being processed in accordance with FAR Part 12 Acquisition of Commercial Items, using Simplified Acquisition Procedures under the test program for commercial items found at FAR 13.5

Quotations shall be emailed to Angela Goldsmith; email: angela.d.goldsmith.civ@us.navy.mil and Alicia Almberg (Alicia.l.almberg.civ@us.navy.mil) by Wednesday April 17th, 2024 at 11:00 AM EST

Quotations will consist of the following information and documentation submitted together:

1. Completed representations and certifications, unless otherwise available in SAM;

2. Price for each line item being quoted as a firm fixed price

Award will be made for the technically acceptable item or combination of technically acceptable items that result in the lowest aggregate price to the Government.

FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation — Commercial Items is applicable to this procurement. The Government will award a contract resulting from this Request for Quotation (RFQ) to the responsible offeror whose quotation conforms to the RFQ and represents the best value to the Government, price and other factors considered.

The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotations:

Lowest Price technically Acceptable

Price:

The estimated amount for each line item will be added together to determine the total estimated price, which will become the evaluated price.

The vendor’s proposed price will be evaluated on the basis of price reasonableness. All prices must be considered fair and reasonable as determined by the Government. Price quote shall be held firm and valid for sixty (60) days.

The completion and submission of the above items will constitute a quote and will be considered the vendor’s unconditional assent to the terms and conditions of this Solicitation and any attachments and/or exhibits.

Failure to provide all of these documents by the required date and time may preclude a quotation from award consideration at the discretion of the Government.

Quotations determined to be technically unacceptable shall not be further evaluated for award. Of the technically acceptable quotations, the Government reserves the right to award to other than lowest price based upon a selection determined to be the best value to the Government, price and other factors considered.

Although price is considered lesser in importance relative to delivery, it has the potential to become more significant during the evaluation process. The importance of price will increase as the degree of equity in a respondent’s non-cost quotations rise. The importance of price will also increase when a quotation’s price is so significantly high as to diminish the value to the Government that might have been gained under the other aspects of the quotation. If at any point in the evaluation all respondents are determined to have submitted equal or generally, equivalent non-cost quotations, price may become the factor in determining the contractor selected for award.
