PRE-PRODUCTION SAMPLE EVALUATIONS

Production Demonstration Models (PDMs) are not required for this acquisition; However, pre-production samples may be required after award. Note that the pre-production samples will be evaluated using the patterns and specifications provided in this solicitation. All previous versions and variations of patterns and specifications for this item are irrelevant.

It is preferred that the materials used to manufacture the pre-production samples be in accordance with any specifications defined in this solicitation. However, if the offeror uses alternate materials to manufacture the pre-production samples a letter must be supplied with them stating (i) which materials depart from the end item specification and (ii) that, although the materials used in producing the pre-production samples differ from those specified, the materials required by the specification will be utilized under the resultant contract.

Note: The use of alternate materials will not affect the rating of pre-production samples, either favorably or negatively when the use of the alternate materials is identified in accordance with the requirements of this section. However, the Government reserves the right to give a negative rating to (a) pre-production sample that is (are) made with materials that depart from the end item specification and the use of those alternate materials was not identified in accordance with the requirements of this section. Accordingly, to preclude a negative assessment of a pre-production sample that is comprised of materials that are not in accordance with the specification(s), it is in the offeror's best interest to identify any and all alternate materials that have been used.

Although the offeror is permitted to use alternate materials to construct the pre-production samples, the offeror is not permitted to utilize alternate manufacturing operations or change the construction/design of the pre-production samples. The pre-production samples must be manufactured (i) at the same facility as the production quantity and (ii) must be in accordance with applicable specifications, including the placement of the labels, unless otherwise identified. However, labels need not be printed for the purpose of the pre-production samples but there must be an indication as to the size of the pre-production sample, when applicable. Therefore, prospective vendors must identify the facility or facilities where the pre-production samples were manufactured.
