III. COST OR PRICING DATA OR INFORMATION OTHER THAN COST OR PRICING DATA:

* The following pertain to the requirement for certified Cost or Pricing Data or Information Other Than Cost or Pricing Data. For contracts estimated over $2,000,000*, certified Cost or Pricing Data “may” be required. Contractors are greatly encouraged to view the sample format found at http://www.dcaa.mil to understand the in depth information required for submission.

Cost or pricing data is not required for commercial items. However, it is the contracting officer’s authority to determine an item(s) commercial or not. A failure to provide adequate cost or pricing data upon receipt of your proposal may result in the solicitation being cancelled with no award being made.

1. Do you fully understand the requirements for Certified Cost or Pricing Data or Information Other Than Cost or Pricing Data and are willing and able to provide such requirements? |_| Yes |_| No

a. Have you provided Certified Cost or Pricing Data to DLA in the past? |_| Yes |_| No

IV. COMMERCIAL QUESTIONS:

* It is the Contracting Officer’s authority to determine an item(s) commercial or not and if the commercial price(s) are Fair and Reasonable. This is usually accomplished through proof that commercial market forces have driven the setting of the commercial price.

Such proof would describe the commercial market acceptance of the price or, more plainly, invoices proving that the item has been sold commercially at like prices, for like quantities. Without proof of commerciality the IDC project cannot be processed as a commercial procurement (FAR Part 12), but will rather be processed using non-commercial procurement procedures (FAR Part 15).

1. Are any of these items Commercial Items per FAR 2.101(b)? |_| Yes |_| No

2. If yes, is your company willing and able to provide evidence of commercial sales and support needed to verify price reasonableness? |_| Yes |_| No Documentation that would potentially help support your commerciality claim may include but is not limited to:

1. Published Catalogs/Price Lists

2. Un-Redacted Commercial sales history (e.g. Invoices showing sales to companies outside of Federal, State or Local Government, etc). The importance of provided un-redacted invoices is to assist in proving the item(s) have been sold commercially at like prices and for like quantities.

3. Complete set of Drawings. You may mark your drawings as “Proprietary and Confidential” as the Government will only use them for determination of Price Reasonableness.

4. Proof of availability or announcement of the Commercial Item to the general public

VII. DELIVERY QUESTIONS:

1. Are there production limitations for any of the item(s) of which we are requesting information? |_| Yes |_| No If yes, please annotate on the attached spreadsheet.

2. Would a minimum delivery order quantity and/or dollar value apply to these NSNs? |_| Yes |_| No If yes, please annotate on the attached spreadsheet.

VIII. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION/INPUT:

It is always the Defense Logistics Agency’s intent to produce Contracts that are advantageous to both the Warfighter and the Contractor. This is best achieved through open lines of communication and informative feedback. Please provide any additional information that you feel may be of assistance in building our Acquisition Strategy and possible Solicitation development.
