(b) System for Award Management (SAM). Unless exempted by the Contracting Officer, quoters are required to have an active Federal Government contracts registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) when submitting a quotation in response to this solicitation and at the time of award.

Registration in SAM is 100% free. See FAR 52.204-7, System for Award Management—Registration (Nov 2024) (DEVIATION Mar 2026) for complete details. To register in SAM, go to https://www.sam.gov.

(c) Small Business Status. To be eligible for award as a small business concern, the quoter is required to represent in good faith that it meets the small business size standard corresponding to the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code identified in the solicitation. The small business size standard that applies to this purchase is stated in Block 10 of the cover sheet of this RFQ, along with the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code on which it is based.

Regardless of the information in Block 10, the small business size standard is 500 employees, or 150 employees for information technology value-added resellers under NAICS code 541519, if you are submitting your quotation in your own name but intend to provide a product that you did not manufacture yourself.

(e) Purchase Order award. Your quotation should contain your best terms. The Contracting Officer may reject any or all quotations. After the evaluation of quotations, the Contracting Officer may work out final terms with one or more quoters of the Government’s choice before issuing a purchase order. The Contracting Officer will not confer with any quoters other than those of the Government’s choice and will not use the formal source selection procedures described in FAR Part 15.

The Contracting Officer may issue a purchase order to other than the quoter with the lowest price. We might issue multiple orders, purchasing various items or groups of items from different quoters. We might issue an order for less than the quantity on which your quote is based, at the quoted price, unless you tell us that you will not accept an order on that basis.

(f) Requests for information. The Contracting Officer is not required to notify unsuccessful quoters;

however, the Contracting Officer may provide such notice at their discretion. Quoters may request information on purchase order(s) resulting from this solicitation from the Contracting Officer. Upon request, the Contracting Officer will provide a brief explanation of the award decision that explains why the unsuccessful quoter was not selected.

Addenda to the clause 52.212-2, Evaluation— Commercial Products and Commercial Services:

52.212-2, Evaluation— Commercial Products and Commercial Services

(a) Evaluation will be made in accordance with the simplified procedures outlined in FAR Part 12.203.

(b) The Government intends to issue a purchase order resulting from this request for quotation to the responsible quoter whose quotation conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotations:

(i) Price.

(ii) Technical Acceptability: Using the technical description of the product or service being quoted, the Government will evaluate the technical acceptability of the firm to complete the work.

(iii) Relevant Experience: Using the information provided by the quoter via the "Experience and Past Performance" form or similar format listing relevant projects completed within the last six (6) years, the Government will evaluate the quoter on the basis of extent of experience with projects of a similar nature and scope of this requirement, such as sale of commercial sign printers.

(iv) Past Performance: Using the information provided by the quoter via the "Experience and

Past Performance" form or similar format, the Government will evaluate the degree to which the quoter successfully performed past projects similar in scope and complexity to the project detailed in this solicitation within the last six (6) years and satisfied past customers.

Past performance information from other sources, including the Contracting Officer’s knowledge of and previous experience with the supply or service being acquired, or the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) at https://www.cpars.gov may also be utilized in the determination of the past performance record. In the case of a quoter without a record of past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the quoter will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance.

(c) Options. The Government will evaluate quotations for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that a quotation is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).
