CAUTION NOTICES:

OFFER EVALUATION

This acquisition will utilize Best Value Source Selection procedures. This Solicitation requires the submission of a Technical Proposal consisting of a Product Demonstration Models (PDM) and Past Performance information as part of the offer. For award evaluation purposes Technical merit is significantly more important in the award evaluation process than price. The Technical proposal will be evaluated to determine compliance with all characteristics listed for evaluation in the solicitation (Additional Source Selection Evaluation Procedures).

Failure to furnish this information by the time specified in the solicitation may be cause for rejection of offers if not otherwise acceptable under the provisions for considering late offers.

Prices will be evaluated based on the Annual Order Limitation Quantity (AOLQ) listed in Schedule of Supplies Section of this solicitation.

Offerors are required to submit one PDM for each item listed under “INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUBMITTING PRODUCT DEMONSTRATION MODEL (PDM) (1)(a)” and past performance information from the period three (3) years prior to the solicitation closing date.

FAILURE TO SUBMIT A PDM WITH THE OFFEROR'S PROPOSAL AT THE TIME AND DATE OF THE INITIAL CLOSING

OF THE SOLICITATION WILL CAUSE THE OFFEROR'S ENTIRE PROPOSAL TO BE REJECTED.

CONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED: PAGE 5 OF 70 PAGES

SECTION A - SOLICITATION/CONTRACT FORM (CONTINUED)

The contract will contain a one (1) year Base Term and Four (4), One (1) Year Option Terms. Failure to offer on all Terms will result in reject of the offeror's entire proposal.

The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror's initial proposal should contain the offeror's best terms from a cost or price and technical standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary.

PRODUCTION DEMONSTRATION MODEL - CAUTION NOTICE

IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT ALL OFFERORS READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS NOTICE:

This solicitation requires submission of Product Demonstration Models (PDM) at time of closing as specified in this document. This solicitation will permit only an initial submission of the PDM with the offeror's proposal at the time and date of initial closing of the solicitation; offerors will not be given the opportunity to present subsequent submissions to correct deficiencies noted in the Government's evaluation of initial PDMs. Therefore, it is imperative that offerors put forth their best effort in constructing this PDM. Any correction to the PDM will not be permitted and will not be accepted by the Government.

FAILURE TO SUBMIT A PDM WILL CAUSE THE OFFEROR'S ENTIRE PROPOSAL TO BE REJECTED.

NOTICE TO PROSPECTIVE SUPPLIERS ON USE OF SUPPLIER PERFROMANCE RISK SYSTEM IN PAST

PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS

The Supplier Performance Risk System (SPSR) application (https://www.sprs.csd.disa.mil/) will be used in the evaluation of suppliers' past performance. Reference provision language elsewhere in this solicitation.

“THE GOVERNMENT WILL RESERVE THE RIGHT TO CONSIDER PAST PERFORMANCE INFORMATION THAT

OCCURS FOLLOWING THE CLOSING OF THE SOLICITATION AS WELL”.

CAUTION NOTICE - TWO PHASE TECHNICAL / PRICE EVALUATION

The Government anticipates that numerous offerors will submit proposals on solicitation. In the event that eight or more proposals are received, the Government may use a two-phase evaluation process, which allows the Contracting Officer to conduct a preliminary evaluation of all offers, in order to determine which offers are the least likely to be candidates for further consideration. During this preliminary evaluation, all offerors' Product Demonstration Models (PDMs) and proposed prices will be evaluated. Certain offerors may be excluded from further consideration at this point, if their PDM ratings and/or offered prices are not competitive when compared with PDM ratings and prices proposed by other offerors. The remaining offers will then be evaluated for the remaining technical evaluation factors. After the completion of this review, the Contracting Officer will determine whether to establish a competitive range and enter into negotiations, or to award without discussions.

PATIENT PROTECTION AND AFFORDABLE HEALTH CARE ACT

Please note that the Patient Protection and Affordable Health Care Act ("the Act"), 124 Stat. 119, imposes duties upon employers concerning the provision of health care to their employees.

Offerors are advised that their proposals should include any costs associated with the implementation of the Act. Any changes in health coverage costs and/or costs associated with compliance, occurring after award of a contract pursuant to this solicitation will not form the basis for an equitable adjustment of the contract price.

LATE BIDS

Here are three things you can do to speed your invoice payments:

Be sure your original invoice is properly completed and legible.

Submit your invoices electronically using the Web Invoicing System (WInS). It's fast, accurate, and costs you nothing! Learn more at the WInS Home Page, at: https://www.ecweb.dfas.mil/notes/, and start using WInS with your next invoice! Or If you currently receive delivery orders electronically, you could benefit by using an 810- invoice transaction.

Web Invoicing eliminates postage, snail mail, and much paperwork, and gets the invoice/voucher into the DFAS system usually within 24 hours. Web Invoicing is free to vendors doing business with the Government. You just enter the appropriate information and send your invoice to DFAS electronically. It provides help text and pull-down menus in many fields. For more specific questions, contact Janice Hockman (703) 607-5111, Kirsten Larco (703) 607-4920 or Debra Jones (703) 607-2082.

For questions about sending Electronic Data Interchange invoices (810-invoice transactions), contact Mr. Bud Wellens at (215) 737-2778.

For questions about paper invoice preparation, just call the DFAS Customer Service Resource Center at 1-800 756-4571, or Call DLA Troop Support DFAS liaisons listed below for assistance: Camille Conaway (215) 737-4406.

SECTION D - PACKAGING AND MARKING (CONTINUED)

As prescribed in 46.710(b)(1), insert a clause substantially as follows:

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause --

“Acceptance” means the act of an authorized representative of the Government by which the Government assumes for itself, or as an agent of another, ownership of existing and identified supplies, or approves specific services rendered, as partial or complete performance of the contract.

“Supplies” means the end items furnished by the Contractor and related services required under this contract. The word does not include “data.”

(b) Contractor's obligations.

(1) The Contractor warrants that for 13 MONTHS AFTER DELIVERY ACCEPTED [Contracting Officer shall state the specific warranty period after delivery, or the specified event whose occurrence will terminate the warranty period; e.g., the number of miles or hours of use, or combinations of any applicable events or periods of time] all supplies furnished under this contract will be free from defects in material and workmanship and will conform with all requirements of this contract; provided, however, that with respect to Government-furnished property, the Contractor's warranty shall extend only to its proper installation, unless the Contractor performs some modification or other work on the property, in which case the Contractor's warranty shall extend to the modification or other work.

(2) Any supplies or parts thereof corrected or furnished in replacement shall be subject to the conditions of this clause to the same extent as supplies initially delivered. This warranty shall be equal in duration to that set forth in paragraph (b)(1) of this clause and shall run from the date of delivery of the corrected or replaced supplies.

(3) The Contractor shall not be obligated to correct or replace supplies if the facilities, tooling, drawings, or other equipment or supplies necessary to accomplish the correction or replacement have been made unavailable to the Contractor by action of the Government. In the event that correction or replacement has been directed, the Contractor shall promptly notify the Contracting Officer, in writing, of the nonavailability.

(4) The Contractor shall also prepare and furnish to the Government data and reports applicable to any correction required (including revision and updating of all affected data called for under this contract) at no increase in the contract price.

(5) When supplies are returned to the Contractor, the Contractor shall bear the transportation costs from the place of delivery specified in the contract (irrespective of the f.o.b. point or the point of acceptance) to the Contractor's plant and return.

(6) All implied warranties of merchantability and “fitness for a particular purpose” are excluded from any obligation contained in this contract.

(c) Remedies available to the Government.

(1) In the event of a breach of the Contractor's warranty in paragraph (b)(1) of this clause, the Government may, at no increase in contract price --

(i) Require the Contractor, at the place of delivery specified in the contract (irrespective of the f.o.b. point or the point of acceptance) or at the Contractor's plant, to repair or replace, at the Contractor's election, defective or nonconforming supplies; or

(ii) Require the Contractor to furnish at the Contractor's plant the materials or parts and installation instructions required to successfully accomplish the correction.

(2) If the Contracting Officer does not require correction or replacement of defective or nonconforming supplies or the Contractor is not obligated to correct or replace under paragraph (b)(3) of this clause, the Government shall be entitled to an equitable reduction in the contract price.

(3) The Contracting Officer shall notify the Contractor in writing of any breach of the warranty in paragraph (b) of this clause within 30 DAYS.

[Contracting Officer shall insert specific period of time in which notice shall be given to the Contractor; e.g., “45 days after delivery of the nonconforming supplies.”; “45 days of the last delivery under this contract.”; or “45 days after discovery of the defect.”] The Contractor shall submit to the Contracting Officer a written recommendation within 15 DAYS [Contracting Officer shall insert period of time] as to the corrective action required to remedy the breach. After the notice of breach, but not later than 30 DAYS [Contracting Officer shall insert period within which the warranty remedies should be exercised] after receipt of the Contractor's recommendation for corrective action, the Contracting Officer may, in writing, direct correction or replacement as in paragraph (c)(1) of this clause, and the Contractor shall, notwithstanding any disagreement regarding the existence of a breach of warranty, comply with this direction. If it is later determined that the Contractor did not breach the warranty in paragraph (b)(1) of this clause, the contract price will be equitably adjusted.

(4) If supplies are corrected or replaced, the period for notification of a breach of the Contractor's warranty in paragraph (c)(3) of this clause shall be 30 DAYS [Contracting Officer shall insert period within which the Contractor must be notified of a breach as to corrected or replaced supplies] from the furnishing or return by the Contractor to the Government of the corrected or replaced supplies or parts thereof, or, if correction or replacement is effected by the Contractor at a Government or other activity, for 30 DAYS [Contracting Officer shall insert period within which the Contractor must be notified of a breach of warranty as to corrected or replaced supplies] thereafter.
