SECTION B - SUPPLIES OR SERVICES AND PRICES OR COSTS (CONTINUED)

UCF SECTION F TIME OF DELIVERY - FIXED QUANTITY

(a) Offers in response to this solicitation will be evaluated as specified in the solicitation. Delivery shall be offered in terms of a number of days after date of award. The number of delivery days required in this solicitation is calculated based on the Government's planned need and customer requirements. Unless delivery is identified elsewhere in the solicitation as an evaluation factor, Offerors are encouraged to conform their delivery terms as closely as possible to the delivery days required, and there will be no evaluation preference, or penalty for faster delivery. Offering a greater number of delivery days than the required delivery schedule may result in the offer not being considered, however the Government reserves the right to consider offered delivery times that exceed the number of delivery days required by the Government.

Delivery is required by the Government in accordance with the following schedule:

(b) The Government may elect to consider for award only those offers that comply with the required delivery schedule but reserves the right to consider offered delivery times that exceed the number of delivery days required by the Government.

The Offeror may propose an alternative delivery schedule below. If the offeror proposes no other delivery schedule, the required delivery schedule above will apply.

Offeror's proposed delivery schedule:

(c) The Government will mail, or otherwise furnish to, the Offeror an award or notice of award not later than the day the award is dated. Therefore, the Offeror shall compute the time available for performance beginning with the actual date of award, rather than the date the written notice of award is received from the Contracting Officer through the ordinary mails.

However, the Government will evaluate an offer that proposes delivery based on the Contractor's date of receipt of the award or notice of award by adding: five calendar days for delivery of the award through the ordinary mails, or one working day if the solicitation states that the award or notice of award will be transmitted electronically. (The term "working day" excludes weekends and United States (U.S.) Federal holidays.)

UCF SECTION B CONTRACT QUANTITY LIMITATIONS

[X] (a) The quantity limitations on any contract resulting from this solicitation are as follows during the contract period*:

(1) Minimum quantity or dollar amount: $16,095.95

SECTION B - SUPPLIES OR SERVICES AND PRICES OR COSTS (CONTINUED)

(2) Maximum quantity or dollar amount: $1,448,635.14

The Government is obligated to order only the minimum quantity or dollar figure stated above.

If this solicitation provides for a partial Small Business set-aside and the resulting award is made to a Contractor receiving the set-aside and non-set-aside portion, the quantities specified above for both minimum and maximum will be doubled.

[ ] (b) Multiple national stock numbers (NSNs): The NSNs or NSN groups cited in the solicitation may be split (with one or more NSNs awarded to one Contractor, one or more to another Contractor or Contractors) after evaluation of offers. If there are split awards, the contract minimum for each contract during the contract period* will become the total of the minimum

(s) for the NSNs awarded to each offeror The resulting contract minimum applies to the entire range of items awarded and does not guarantee that the Government will purchase any particular quantity or dollar amount of any individual NSN awarded.

The contract minimum will be $_________, which is the total of the minimum estimates for all NSNs. The minimum estimate for each NSN is calculated;

( ) (1) as ________ per cent of the estimated annual demand value for each item, or

( ) (2) as specified below for each NSN or NSN group

NSN Minimum Quantity or Dollar Value

The contract maximum during the contract period* will be $

[ ] (c) Multiple awards - The Government anticipates making multiple awards (awards for the same NSNs) as a result of this solicitation. If multiple awards are made, the contract minimum for each award during the contract period* will be a proportion of the overall minimum cited below. For example, if two awards are made the Government is obligated to purchase half of the minimum from each awardee. Regardless of the number of awards made under this solicitation, the Government may order, and each awardee is obligated to deliver, up to the maximum cited below:

The contract minimum will be $______________________, which is the total of the minimum estimates for all NSNs. The minimum estimate for each NSN is calculated:

( ) (1) as ________ per cent of the estimated annual demand value for each item, or

( ) (2) as specified below for each NSN or NSN group

NSN Minimum Quantity Or Dollar Value

SPE7LX-22-R-0004

SECTION B - SUPPLIES OR SERVICES AND PRICES OR COSTS (CONTINUED)

(a) With respect to each item or group of items identified below, offers must be submitted for all items indicated. No award will be made for less than the full requirements shown in this solicitation for these items or groups.

Group __________

Item 5330-01-512-8019

(b) Any offeror offering less than all of the solicitation requirements of the indicated item or group of items may be precluded from consideration for award if the Contracting Officer elects to make an award without opening discussions.

(c) Offerors are cautioned that submission of an offer for selected item(s) within a given group is unacceptable; offers must be for all item(s) within a given group. However, an offeror may submit an offer on any one or more groups.

UCF SECTION - M EVALUATION OF OFFERS FOR INDEFINITE DELIVERY TYPE SOLICITATIONS (July 2017)

(a) Offers will be evaluated on the basis of the estimated annual quantity. Unless (b) is checked w, if quantity increments are offered with various prices, the highest price offered will be used for evaluation. If line items for both DLA direct and customer direct are included in the schedule, offers will be evaluated based on the total extended price for the DLA direct and customer direct line items.

(b) [ X ] If checked, and subject to the terms and conditions of the solicitation relating to the evaluation of offers, the following procedures will be followed:

(1) When offers are requested on a quantity increment basis, each contract line-item (CLIN) will be evaluated for price by:

[ ] applying a weighted factor of 18% to the first quantity increment, 36% to the second increment, and 46% to the third increment to arrive at an average weighted unit price.

[ X ] applying a weighted factor of 5% to the first quantity increment, 65% to the second increment, 25% to the third increment, and 5% to the fourth increment to arrive at an average weighted unit price.

This average weighted unit price will be multiplied by the estimated annual quantity that may be procured during the contract period to arrive at a total annual evaluated price for each CLIN. If the solicitation provides for separately priced option periods, average weighted prices will be calculated as described above in (1) for each option period and then added to the base contract period total to determine the total estimated price of that line item for the evaluation.

(2) When quantity increment prices are not requested, offers for each CLIN will be evaluated by multiplying the unit price by the estimated quantity that may be procured during the contract period to arrive at total price for each CLIN.

(3) Prices offered must be unit prices only which are clearly stated and which require no further interpretation by the Government to determine the actual offered price. Prices must not be stated as part of a pricing formula or as charges per lot. Unit prices offered must include costs of compliance with all solicitation requirements, with the exception of additive CLINs. For each item of supply for which a price is offered, prices must be offered for each quantity increment and year. Failure to submit proposed prices in accordance with these instructions may result

CONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED: PAGE 9 OF 75 PAGES

SECTION B - SUPPLIES OR SERVICES AND PRICES OR COSTS (CONTINUED)

in rejection of the offer.

(4) In the event first article testing and/or technical data are required for any or all of the CLINS, the cost of such testing and data will be added to the appropriate CLIN or prorated based on the ratio of the estimated quantity for each CLIN to the total estimated quantity of the various CLINs covering the same item or national stock number (NSN). In the event an offeror is low only on one CLIN (where there are several CLINs for the same item) (NSN), the cost of testing and data pertaining to that CLIN will be added for evaluation purposes.

(5) [X] If checked, when free on board (f.o.b.) origin offers are authorized, transportation costs will be considered in evaluation and will be based on the best estimated quantity of each CLIN as specified elsewhere in this solicitation. Carload or truckload rates will be used to evaluate the cost of transportation for each CLIN unless the best estimated quantity would not constitute a carload or truckload. In such case, less than carload (LCL) or less than truckload (LTL) rates will be used for evaluation.

UCF SECTION F PRIORITY RATING FOR VARIOUS LONG-TERM CONTRACTS

Because this contract does not have a specified delivery date, the basic contract is not rated; however, orders placed against it that include a delivery date are rated orders under FAR 52.211-15, Defense Priority and Allocation Requirements, as of the date of receipt by the supplier.

UCF SECTION F PRODUCTION FACILITY CHANGES

(a) The performance of any of the work contracted for in any place other than that named in the contract is prohibited unless specifically approved by the Contracting Officer. Written requests for a change in production facilities must be submitted in writing to the Contracting Officer. Changes in production facilities may be approved, provided:

(1) Performance by small business or in labor surplus areas as required by the contract will not be changed;

(2) The change will not cause a delay in delivery or necessitate a change in the purchase description;

(3) The free on board (f.o.b.) point is not changed; and

(4) Each request is supported by a price reduction of $250.00 to cover the Government's administrative costs to process the change.

(b) The Government reserves the right to deny approval even if these four elements are met.

UCF SECTION F SHIPPING INSTRUCTIONS

Shipping instructions shall be provided with individual delivery orders.

UCF SECTION B ESTIMATED TOTAL QUANTITY

(a) The estimated total quantity the Government expects to order during each contract year is as follows:

Contract Line-Item Numbers (CLIN(S)) Quantity CLIN(S) Quantity

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause --

“Advance shipment notice” means an electronic notification used to list the contents of a shipment of goods as well as additional information relating to the shipment, such as passive radio frequency identification (RFID) or item unique identification (IUID) information, order information, product description, physical characteristics, type of packaging, marking, carrier information, and configuration of goods within the transportation equipment.

“Bulk commodities” means the following commodities, when shipped in rail tank cars, tanker trucks, trailers, other bulk wheeled conveyances, or pipelines:

(1) Sand.

(2) Gravel.

(3) Bulk liquids (water, chemicals, or petroleum products).

(4) Ready-mix concrete or similar construction materials.

(5) Coal or combustibles such as firewood.

(6) Agricultural products such as seeds, grains, or animal feed.

“Case” means either a MIL-STD-129 defined exterior container within a palletized unit load or a MIL-STD-129 defined individual shipping

SECTION D - PACKAGING AND MARKING (CONTINUED)

container.

“Electronic Product Code™ (EPC)” means an identification scheme for universally identifying physical objects via RFID tags and other means.

The standardized EPC data consists of an EPC (or EPC identifier) that uniquely identifies an individual object, as well as an optional filter value when judged to be necessary to enable effective and efficient reading of the EPC tags. In addition to this standardized data, certain classes of EPC tags will allow user-defined data. The EPC Tag Data Standards will define the length and position of this data, without defining its content.

“EPCglobal®” means a subscriber-driven organization comprised of industry leaders and organizations focused on creating global standards for the adoption of passive RFID technology.

“Exterior container” means a MIL-STD-129 defined container, bundle, or assembly that is sufficient by reason of material, design, and construction to protect unit packs and intermediate containers and their contents during shipment and storage. It can be a unit pack or a container with a combination of unit packs or intermediate containers. An exterior container may or may not be used as a shipping container.

“Palletized unit load” means a MIL-STD-129 defined quantity of items, packed or unpacked, arranged on a pallet in a specified manner and secured, strapped, or fastened on the pallet so that the whole palletized load is handled as a single unit. A palletized or skidded load is not considered to be a shipping container. A loaded 463L System pallet is not considered to be a palletized unit load. Refer to the Defense Transportation Regulation, DoD 4500.9-R, Part II, Chapter 203, for marking of 463L System pallets.

“Passive RFID tag” means a tag that reflects energy from the reader/interrogator or that receives and temporarily stores a small amount of energy from the reader/interrogator signal in order to generate the tag response. The only acceptable tags are EPC Class 1 passive RFID tags that meet the EPCglobal™ Class 1 Generation 2 standard.

“Radio frequency identification (RFID)” means an automatic identification and data capture technology comprising one or more reader/ interrogators and one or more radio frequency transponders in which data transfer is achieved by means of suitably modulated inductive or radiating electromagnetic carriers.

“Shipping container” means a MIL-STD-129 defined exterior container that meets carrier regulations and is of sufficient strength, by reason of material, design, and construction, to be shipped safely without further packing (e.g., wooden boxes or crates, fiber and metal drums, and corrugated and solid fiberboard boxes).

(b)(1) Except as provided in paragraph (b)(2) of this clause, the Contractor shall affix passive RFID tags, at the case- and palletized-unit-load packaging levels, for shipments of items that --

(i) Are in any of the following classes of supply, as defined in DoD Manual 4140.01, Volume 6, DoD Supply Chain Materiel Management Procedures: Materiel Returns, Retention, and Disposition:

SECTION D - PACKAGING AND MARKING (CONTINUED)

(2) Use passive tags that are readable; and

(3) Ensure that the passive tag is affixed at the appropriate location on the specific level of packaging, in accordance with MIL-STD-129 (Section 4.9.2) tag placement specifications.

(d) Data syntax and standards. The Contractor shall encode an approved RFID tag using the instructions provided in the EPC™ Tag Data Standards in effect at the time of contract award. The EPC™ Tag Data Standards are available at http://www.gs1.org/epc-rfid.

(1) If the Contractor is an EPCglobal™ subscriber and possesses a unique EPC™ company prefix, the Contractor may use any of the identifiers and encoding instructions described in the most recent EPC™ Tag Data Standards document to encode tags.

(2) If the Contractor chooses to employ the DoD identifier, the Contractor shall use its previously assigned Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) code and shall encode the tags in accordance with the tag identifier details located in the DoD Suppliers' Passive RFID Information Guide at http://www.acq.osd.mil/log/sci/ait.html. If the Contractor uses a third-party packaging house to encode its tags, the CAGE code of the third-party packaging house is acceptable.

(3) Regardless of the selected encoding scheme, the Contractor with which the Department holds the contract is responsible for ensuring that the tag ID encoded on each passive RFID tag is globally unique, per the requirements in paragraph (c)(1).

(e) Advance shipment notice. The Contractor shall use Wide Area WorkFlow (WAWF), as required by DFARS 252.232-7003, Electronic Submission of Payment Requests, to electronically submit advance shipment notice(s) with the RFID tag ID(s) (specified in paragraph (d) of this clause) in advance of the shipment in accordance with the procedures at https://wawf.eb.mil/.
