M24.01 EVALUATION OF OFFERS INVOLVING F.O.B. TANKER LOADING FOR THE INLAND/EAST

COAST/GULF/OFFSHORE PURCHASE PROGRAM (DLA ENERGY SEP 2010)

All offers will be evaluated as follows unless the solicitation specifically indicates otherwise in the schedule:

(a) Transportation will be considered in the evaluation of all origin offers. The evaluation rate will be expressed as a daily time charter rate and will be based on a nominal size U.S. Flag Vessel of approximately 30,000 Deadweight Tons (DWTs) and will consist of estimated market rates, published prices, actual charter hire rates paid by the Government, or any combination thereof.

(b) For this solicitation, the rate to be used in evaluation is $64,306.60 per day.

1. For the evaluation of offers, the Transportation Officer shall give to the Contracting Officer; and the Contracting Officer shall use, the lowest available freight rates and related accessorial and incidental charges that (A) are in effect on, or become effective before, the expected date of the initial shipment and (B) are on file or published on the date of the bid opening.

2. If rates or related charges become available after the bid opening or the due date of offers, they shall not be used in the evaluation unless they cover transportation for which no applicable rates, accessorial, or incidental costs were in existence at the time of the bid opening or due date of offers.

(c) DLA Energy will not consider offers that require the furnishing of more than one product to fill a vessel.

(d) Transportation freight rates will be applied to all offers in the evaluation process as follows:

1. 235,000 (JAA/JP5) and 225,000 (F76) barrels of product will be considered sufficient to fully utilize vessels up to 30,000 DWT. DLA Energy will use the evaluation rate along with round trip mileage over the tanker routes being evaluated to compute a transportation rate expressed in U.S. cents per gallon. This rate will then be added to the offered price per gallon to determine the evaluated price.

2. The following destinations will be evaluated on fully loaded vessels of approximately 30,000 DWT:

FOR JAA FOR JP5 FOR F76

DFSP Charleston, SC DFSP Jacksonville, FL DFSP Craney Island, VA DFSP Houston, TX DFSP Craney Island, VA DFSP Houston, TX
