Electronic Invoicing by Suppliers via Electronic Commerce/Electronic Data Interchange:
All suppliers are required to process invoices electronically. This is a condition for contract award. An electronic invoicing system expedites payments by providing a real time system for invoice processing. In an effort to ensure that your firm is paid promptly for products that you supply, we want to utilize the best business practices available. The business practices of today reflect increased utilization of Electronic Commerce/Electronic Data Interchange providing more timely and cost effective ways of information exchange. The Defense Logistics Agency, Subsistence is migrating towards more and more use of the electronic mediums available to conduct business with you as our business partners. The Defense Logistics Agency has undergone an Enterprise Business Systems initiative. This EBS initiative will change the way you currently invoice. EBS conforms to a strict adherence of detailed line item payment in concert with the order. The manual paperwork will no longer be a viable way to invoice. Invoices need to be submitted for payment promptly after delivery.
Our intention is to provide you a quick and easy way to submit your invoices for payment and to help ensure prompt and accurate payments. Efforts have been underway for some time to bring a resolution for you to be able to accomplish Electronic Data Interchange with the invoices. Several alternatives are available:
1. If your company is able to exchange information electronically through ANSI X12 format, we could set your company up as an EDI vendor immediately, being able to receive orders and send invoices electronically.
2. There are companies available who for a fee will turn your flat files into EDI Invoices (810 transactions).
3. The Market Ready EDI Invoicing is another web application to submit your invoices electronically.
This system can be found on the DLA TROOP SUPPORT web page for subsistence, http://www.DLA Troop Support.dla.mil/subs/index.asp. You will be issued a User ID and Password, after properly registering for this site. This application will allow you to see on the website receipts by the customers, for your contracts only. You can review the receipt and, if in agreement you will simply type in an invoice number to submit your invoice to DFAS. This receipt information is available at this website for 8 weeks. The user will have the ability to add lines or change existing lines to reflect what was delivered. The changes will be e-mailed to your DLA TROOP SUPPORT account manager, who will work at resolving the differences; however, the customer must make the corrections electronically. Vendors are encouraged to wait until the receipt is adjusted to submit their invoices. The system will be updated daily from the receipt files. Invoices submitted using this website will generate an EDI invoice to flow through the paying process at DFAS. If you need additional information on electronic or alternate electronic invoice processing contact your DLA TROOP SUPPORT Account Manager or Buyer.
One of the above methods must be used as paper invoices are no longer a viable option.
On the next page is provided as a sample of a STORES order. The information indicated in the 5 elements below are required to be identified on the vendor’s invoice in order for the vendor to be promptly paid by DFAS. These elements are on the system generated STORES purchase order, and the information needs to be transferred to the invoice.
1. Contract Number - i.e. SP0300-99-D-V222 (on attached sample). This number will remain constant throughout the life of the contract.
2. Call Number - i.e. 274A (This is the Julian date and the Lap ID number of the purchase order).
This number will change with every order.
3. Lead CLIN No. - i.e. 308 (This is the item number on the purchase order). This number will change with every order.
4. Purchase Order Number - i.e. FT903692743186. This number will change with every order.
5. Required Delivery Date (RDD) i.e. 10/4/99. This date will change with each order.

Schedule of Items – Group I: Ice Cream items Since many of ice cream items are branded and are specific to certain manufacturers and suppliers, the Government reserves the right to make common item market comparisons to those common items offered in response to the solicitation and to accept variations in weight and variations that do not substantially affect the nature of the items. When different size common ice cream items are offered, the Government will evaluate price on a cost per ounce basis. For price evaluation purposes, the Government will prorate offered price to the product size listed in the solicitation. For example, if the solicitation lists a "3 oz. ice cream cup with 18 to a package" and an offer is submitted for a "2 ½ oz. ice cream cup with 18 to a package" at $5.00 per unit, the evaluated price will be $6.00 per unit to compensate for the ½ oz.

Ordering System
A. Subsistence Total Order and Receipt Electronic System (STORES)
1. STORES is the Government’s ordering system which is capable of accepting orders from any of the Services’, i.e. Army, Air Force, Navy or Marines, individual ordering systems and translating the orders into an EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) format. In addition, this information is transmitted to DLA TROOP SUPPORT for the purposes of contractor payment and customer billing.
2. Customers will be able to order all of their Dairy requirements through STORES.
3. Initially, a copy of the STORES Orders will be transmitted via FAX from the customers listed in this solicitation to the successful awardee(s). While it is not a requirement of this solicitation, vendors are encouraged to have a separate FAX line in order to accommodate orders in a timely, efficient manner.
4. EDI capability is not a requirement for award under this solicitation. However, offerors should consider moving towards a fully functional EDI environment. In order to interface with STORES electronically, the offeror must be able to support the following EDI transaction sets:
• Catalog (Vendor to DLA TROOP SUPPORT)
• Purchase Order
• Functional Acknowledgment
• Receipt
• Invoice (optional at this time)
5. It is preferred that the successful vendor has access to the Internet and is able to send and receive electronic mail (e-mail).
6. Unit prices and extended prices must be formatted not more than two (2) places to the right of the decimal point.
7. The EDI-capable vendor must be able to conform to the Government’s format for Item Descriptions on both the catalog and the invoices. The Government’s format begins with a broad category and then continues with a more general description. For example, a 3-gallon 10% ice cream would be described as “ICE CREAM, VANILLA, FZN, MIN 10% MILK FAT, 3
GAL CO”
B. Order Placement
1. Customers shall place orders via STORES to accommodate order lead time stated on contract and orders shall generally be sent no later than 10:00 a.m.. However, a customer may decide to place an order with a longer lead-time for delivery except as noted on Section VI-A. Holidays.
2. The vendor should notify the customer, no later than 24 hours after order placement, of the non-availability of an item. If it appears that the vendor will not be able to fulfill the order in time to meet the required delivery date, the vendor shall advise the customer to zero-out the item in STORES and create a new purchase order for a replacement item.
3. There shall be no line-item (LSN) additions to existing STORES orders. Requirements for additional LSN's to prior/existing orders shall be ordered by customers via STORES as a new and separate STORES order.
Purchase Orders
There shall only be one invoice per purchase order and only one purchase order per day. This will reduce invoice and payment issues. At no time is a delivery driver permitted to deliver items that do not appear on the purchase order.

Non-Compete Provision The offeror warrants that it will not actively promote, encourage, or market any of the customers on this acquisition away from a resultant DLA Troop Support contract and onto a contract of any other Government agency or commercial entity.

Food Defense/Force Protection DLA Troop Support Subsistence Directorate provides world-wide subsistence logistics support during peace time as well as during regional conflicts, contingency operations, national emergencies, and natural disasters. At any time, the United States Government, its personnel, resources and interests may be the target of enemy aggression to include espionage, sabotage, or terrorism. This increased risk requires DLA Troop Support to take steps to ensure measures are taken to prevent the deliberate tampering and contamination of subsistence items. The offeror must ensure that products and/or packaging have not been tampered with or contaminated throughout the growing, storage, and delivery process. Contract awardee will ensure to complete security of all conveyances to any military installations. The offeror must immediately inform DLA Troop Support Subsistence of any attempt or suspected attempt by any party or parties, known or unknown, to tamper with or contaminate subsistence supplies.
As the holder of a contract with the Department of Defense, the awardees should be aware of the vital role they play in supporting our customers. It is incumbent upon the awardees to take all necessary actions to secure product delivered to all military customers, as well as any applicable commercial destinations.
Negotiations
For the subject acquisition, the Government reserves the right to conduct negotiations. Initial responses to negotiations shall be in a form of communication customary in the industry for transmitting information via e-mail.

Offerors using a consortium, joint venture or other teaming approaches shall provide evidence of experience pertaining to the execution of the requirements of the solicitation. The freshness requirement of the product being delivered may not be compromised. The offeror’s distance from the delivery location is very important. The offeror must be capable of delivering product to arrive at the delivery location the same day for emergency orders.

A. All packaging and packing shall be in accordance with good commercial practice. Labeling shall be in accordance with commercial labeling complying with the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and regulations promulgated there under. Shipping containers shall be in compliance with the National Motor Freight Classification and Uniform Freight Classification Code.
B. All items must be identified with readable dates (open code dates), coded dates, or with color-coded twist ties. Contractors that do not use open dating will provide a product code number key/twist tie color listing. The product code number key/color coded twist tie listing shall explain the actual date of production or processing. After award of contract under this solicitation, the successful awardee shall provide a copy of key/color codes listing will be furnished to each destination’s receiving officer and each destination’s inspection agency with prior to the first delivery.

A signature on the delivery ticket/invoice denotes acceptance of the product.
Rapid Gate
Many bases currently require enrollment in RapidGate and will not allow entry without RapidGate clearance. During the contract implementation period, the Contractor must contact all customer locations to determine whether enrollment in RapidGate or another security program is required for access to each location. If RapidGate or other security enrollment is required, the contractor must take all necessary steps to obtain this in time for the start of performance under this contract. Failure to have RapidGate clearance may result in a vendor being turned away from the base and being
Attachment SPE300-14-X-0013 Page 16 of 55 unable to complete delivery. The contractor is responsible for the additional cost for RapidGate enrollment and must ensure that a RapidGate enrolled driver is available for all deliveries. We currently estimate that RapidGate enrollment will cost about $250 per company and $200 per enrolled employee for 1 year of access to multiple locations, but the cost of RapidGate or other security enrollment may vary, so the contractor should contact RapidGate to determine its own costs. If more than one driver is required, RapidGate enrollment must be obtained for each driver. Note that enrollment can take several weeks, so an awardee that is not already enrolled must begin enrollment at the time of award notification at the latest. If difficulty or delay in enrollment in RapidGate is encountered during the implementation period, the contractor MUST contact RapidGate and/or the Security Officer at the applicable customer locations to resolve any issues with processing RapidGate enrollment so that the contractor will be able to deliver as required. For additional information regarding RapidGate, including enrollment instructions, please visit their website at www.rapidgate.com.”
