MATERIAL COST REDUCTION - To ensure DLA continues delivering products and services at the most economical cost, DLA Land and Maritime has initiated a Material Cost Reduction Initiative. To support this initiative, please be advised, the Government is seeking to reduce material pricing by as much as 10% per NSN on this solicitation. Please consider the Government's objective when supplying your company's offer.

Procurements that are over 10k will include the applicable Buy American or Free Trade Agreement Clauses in the awarded contract. Applicable clauses are found in DFARS 252.225

Offerors are encouraged to submit price break information (not Auto IDC) with their quotes. Solicitations which are manually evaluated and awarded at increased quantities may be awarded based on the price break information submitted with the offeror's original quotation without further solicitation or discussion.

If you anticipate quoting on a solicitation after the closing date, please submit a DIBBS quote with a bid type of “No Bid” and place an anticipated quote date or the reason you are not willing to quote. This does not prevent you from submitting an actual quote on DIBBS at a later date. It will overlay your previous no quote. This informs buyers of your intention to quote and prevents multiple calls for updates and cancelling of requirements assumed to be non-procurable due to no quotes/sources. The submission of an anticipated quote date does not preclude DLA from making an award to another acceptable timely offer.

EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD: Award will be made to the offeror(s) whose quote(s) conforms to the solicitation requirements and represents the best value to the Government. Past performance, offered delivery and price will be evaluated when making a comparative assessment of quotes. An award may be made to other than the lowest priced, technically acceptable, responsible offeror(s).

However, for an offeror to be eligible for award, the contracting officer must determine that the FAT CLIN price (unless FAT is waived) and the production CLIN price are fair and reasonable; and, if set-aside under FAR Part 19, a fair market price. The offeror shall not propose a FAT CLIN price that is materially unbalanced in relation to the production CLIN price. In the event an offeror receives a waiver of the FAT requirement, the contracting officer will deduct the FAT CLIN price for the waived source in determining the total award price.

(ii) Description of item previously furnished, identified by part number, type, model number and/or other identifying information.

(iii) Engineering control document/change number of item previously furnished.

(b) There have been no changes to manufacturing processes, tooling, or place of performance.

(c) There have been no changes to manufacturing data (e.g., drawing revisions that change materials, dimensions, processes, inspection or testing requirements; or subcontractors used to manufacture the items successfully in the past).

(3) The contractor shall provide and maintain an inspection system acceptable to the Government in accordance with FAR Clause 52.246-2 or 52.246-3; and maintain and make available all records evidencing those details if requested by the Government. When the Government finds evidence of risk associated with the contractor's sampling process, the Government may witness and evaluate the contractors sampling process. The contractor shall randomly select samples from the production lot(s), unless the contracting officer specifies otherwise in writing. The contractor shall ship the selected PVT samples with a copy of the system of record receiving report (i.e., WAWF, DD Form 250, or commercial shipping document) and the contractor's signed DD Form 1222.

The contractor shall prepare the shipping container(s) by marking the external packages in bold letters, “Product Verification Test Samples - Do Not Post to Stock," Contract Number [ ] and Lot/Item Number [ ]” adjacent to the MIL-STD-129 (latest revision) identification markings. The contractor shall use a hard copy of the system of record receiving report as a packing list, in accordance with DFARS Appendix F. The contractor shall mark the exterior of the shipping container in accordance with MIL-STD129 (latest revision), paragraph 5.11. The contractor shall send samples by traceable means (e.g., certified or registered mail, United Parcel Service, Federal Express). The contractor shall include the following in the interior package:

If the Government does not return approved samples that pass testing to the contractor, the Government will consider those samples as part of the contract quantity for payment and delivery.

(5) If samples fail testing, the Government may reject the entire contract lot from which the contractor took the samples. The Government may, at its discretion, retain samples that fail testing without obligation to the contractor.
