If a reverse auction is held, Contractors must be registered in the reverse auction system in order to participate in the auction.

Additionally, the Contractor representative participating in the auction must have taken the on-line reverse auction training prior to the reverse auction. Registration, on-line training, and other information regarding the reverse auction can be found at https://dla.procurexinc.com . If a reverse auction is held and a Contractor that provided a proposal to the solicitation does not participate in the auction, the initially proposed price(s) will be considered and evaluated.

SECTION L - INSTRUCTIONS, CONDITIONS, AND NOTICES TO OFFERORS

Contract Price Reduction for Waiver of First Article Test

(a) All offerors are required to insert an amount for items 0001AA and 0002AA which includes the full price for First Article testing.

(b) In addition, those offerors intending to request a waiver of the First Article Approval requirement, as described elsewhere in this Section L, shall insert the total price for First Article Testing under Item 0001AB (See Section B of this solicitation). If the successful offeror requests and is granted a waiver, the dollar amount entered for item 0001AB will be deducted from the total amount cited for items 0001AA and 0002AA. The remaining dollar amount will constitute the price at which award will be made.

Handcarried Offers

(a) Unless specifically authorized elsewhere in this solicitation, paper offers will not be accepted. The term "handcarried offers" generally refers to offers contained on electronic media, which we recognize may be delivered "by hand." Handcarried offers must be delivered to Building 255.

(b) Handcarried offers, including disks or other electronic media, shall be addressed to:

DLA Warren c/o US Army TACOM-LCMC

Contracting Center

Offer Receipt Office, Building 231, Room 1300, AMSCC-TAC-HMG

6501 East 11 Mile Road

Warren, MI. 48397-0001

(c) Offers shall not be addressed to an individual buyer. All offers must be addressed to the Offer Receipt Office at the above address.

(d) The external delivery envelope or wrapper must be marked with the solicitation number and the date and time of the solicitation closing. Each envelope should contain only one offer.

(e) Handcarried offers must be delivered to Building 255. Directions to TACOM: From Van Dyke Avenue, travel westbound on 11 Mile

Road; enter the first Arsenal gate immediately west of the railroad tracks on the north side of the street. Take an immediate right and follow security officer directions to the Receiving Dock in Building 255. The driver may need to obtain a visitors badge, and must be a

US citizen. The Government will forward the package to the Offer Receipt Office in Building 231.

(f) Offerors must ensure that the commercial carrier they use has a tracking system that can provide documentation of the date and time of delivery to the Government. For handcarried offers delivered by other than a commercial carrier, the offeror must ensure that the delivery person obtains a signature from Receiving Dock personnel on a receipt that shows the date and time of delivery to the

Government. The delivery person must provide the receipt since Receiving Dock personnel do not have them.

(g) Packages must be delivered to Building 255 between the hours of 8:00 am and 3:00 pm local time.

Data and Communications Submitted to the Government Electronically

(a) The Government often employs contractors as system administrators to operate and maintain Government computer systems. These systems include local area networks, web sites, databases, other electronic records, e-mail accounts, other electronic data transfer mechanisms and computer software. The employees of these contracted system administrators sign nondisclosure agreements obligating them not to reveal information contained in files, documents, computers or systems that they administer. However, unless such information is protected in some way, contracted system administrators do have the ability to access such information.

(b) Potential contractors as well as any other parties are thus advised to take steps needed to prevent access by contracted system administrators to information submitted electronically to the Government. Absent such steps, it is assumed that contracted system administrators are permitted the capability to access the data. The access will be limited to that which is necessary for the contract system administrator to perform its duties for the Government. The access shall be subject to the condition that third party information is not to be revealed by the contracted system administrator.

Source Notes on Drawings Conform to Mil Tech Data Req

Notwithstanding the fact that ordnance drawings furnished with this solicitation may list particular manufacturer part numbers as

4 10

Name of Offeror or Contractor:

PIIN/SIIN MOD/AMD

approved sources, or as being the same as, or equivalent to, the ordnance part described on the drawing, the item to be supplied under this solicitation must conform to all specific technical requirements expressed on such drawing(s). To the extent that there may be any inconsistency between a manufacturer's part number and specific technical requirements expressed on an ordnance drawing which references the manufacturer's part number, the specific technical requirements shall control and take precedence. Offerors shall bear the responsibility of verifying that the approved part as supplied will conform with all such specific technical requirements.

Notice Regarding Source-Controlled Components

(a) Please see the provision entitled ACQUISITION OF MANUFACTURER'S PART NUMBER: COMPONENTS in this solicitation. At least one component of the item to be purchased under this acquisition is restricted to specified manufacturer's part numbers as set forth in the

Technical Data Package. It is the responsibility of each offeror to ensure the availability of sufficient quantities of such source-controlled components before making an offer in response to this solicitation. Except as described in paragraph (b) below, offers that propose to substitute alternatives to the source-controlled components, even if the substitute items are represented as equivalent in all respects to the source-controlled components, will not be considered for contract award.

(b) Required Approval for Alternatives to the Source-Controlled Component:

(1) By meeting the following conditions, a firm may submit an offer conditioned on acceptance by the Government of alternatives to the source-controlled component(s) listed in the Technical Data Package:

-- Prior to receipt of this solicitation, the firm must have received written TACOM approval of a test procedure on its proposed equivalent component.

-- The firm must indicate in its offer the date of the written TACOM approval, and the name and title of the approving official.

-- The firm must certify in its offer that it is in the process of having its item independently tested per the approved test procedure to demonstrate full physical, functional, and mechanical interchangeability of its part with an already-approved part cited in this solicitation, or that it is awaiting final TACOM engineering approval of the summary report furnished at the conclusion of testing; and

-- The firm must have secured final written approval of its part from TACOM engineering by the time of bid opening, (in the case of formally advertised acquisitions), or by the time of contract award, (in the case of negotiated acquisitions).

(2) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Procuring Contracting Officer has the right to waive the above conditions in making an award when it is clearly established, in his sole discretion, that written approval of a nonlisted part from TACOM engineering can be obtained without delay in the anticipated date of award.

When either of the foregoing conditions are met, the Government reserves the right to make an award where use of the equivalent item is authorized in lieu of the source-controlled item. Where the foregoing conditions are not met, offeror will not be eligible for award unless he agrees to furnish the source-controlled item(s) from the indicated source(s).

(c) Any firm that manufactures or regularly sells an item which it views as equivalent in all respects to one of our required components, but that has not initiated approved qualification testing in order to demonstrate that its part is totally equivalent to the required component, should see the notice entitled PART NUMBERS NOT CURRENTLY APPROVED, located elsewhere in this Section L.

Acq of New Facilities, Special Test Equip, or Special Tooling

(a) It is not the intent of the Government to acquire, or to have acquired for its account, any facilities, special test equipment, or special tooling as those terms are defined below. The Government shall under no circumstances reimburse the offeror for the cost of any new facilities, special test equipment, or special tooling as a separate item. An offeror may, however, amortize the cost of any such facilities, special test equipment, or special tooling it may require in the submitted price of the items. Such facilities, special test equipment or special tooling shall not be subject to Government option rights to take title to the same except as specified in the

DEFAULT, TERMINATION FOR THE CONVENIENCE OF THE GOVERNMENT, and/or PROGRESS PAYMENT clauses of this contract.

(b) As used in this solicitation/contract, FACILITIES means industrial property (other than material, special tooling, military property, and special test equipment) for production, maintenance, research, development, or test, including real property and rights in it, buildings, structures, improvements, and plant equipment.

(c) As used in this solicitation/contract, SPECIAL TEST EQUIPMENT means either single or multipurpose integrated test units engineered, designed, fabricated, or modified to accomplish special purpose testing in the performance of the contract. Such testing units comprise electrical, electronic, hydraulic, pneumatic, mechanical, or other items or assemblies of equipment, that are mechanically, 5 10

Name of Offeror or Contractor:

PIIN/SIIN MOD/AMD

electrically, or electronically interconnected so as to become a new functional entity, causing the individual item or items to become interdependent and essential in the performance of special purpose testing in the development or production of particular supplies or services. The term SPECIAL TEST EQUIPMENT does not include: (1) material; (2) special tooling; (3) buildings and non-everable structures (except foundations and similar improvements necessary for the installation of special test equipment); and (4) plant equipment items used for general plant testing purposes.

(d) As used in this solicitation/contract, SPECIAL TOOLING means all jigs, dies, fixtures, molds, patterns, taps, gauges, other equipment and manufacturing aids, and their replacements, which are of such a specialized nature that, without substantial modification or alteration, their use is limited to the development or production of particular supplies or parts of them, or the performance of particular services. The term includes all components of such items, but does not include: (1) material; (2) special test equipment;

or (3) buildings, and non-severable structures (except foundations and similar improvements necessary for the installation of special tooling), general or special machine tools, or similar capital items.

Part Numbers Not Currently Approved

As specified elsewhere in this solicitation, part or all of the contract item to be procured is restricted to certain approved manufacturer's part numbers as set forth in the Schedule and/or the Technical Data Package. Any firm that produces an item which it believes to be equivalent to one of these approved part numbers is encouraged to have such item tested and approved, so that the item will be eligible to be bought on future acquisitions. Please write to the attention of the buyer at the email address indicated on the cover page of this solicitation and request a statement of the procedures by which items can be tested and approved for procurement.

Such an enquiry should cite the applicable National Stock Number (NSN), the already approved part number, the part number of the item which the enquirer believes to be identical to our approved item, and a brief statement of the basis on which the new item is believed to be equivalent to our already approved item.

Reverse Auction

The Contracting Officer may utilize on-line reverse auctioning as a means of conducting price discussions under this solicitation. If the Contracting Officer does not conduct a reverse auction, award may be made on the basis of initial offers or following discussions not using reverse auctioning as a pricing technique. If the Contracting Officer decides to use on-line reverse auctioning to conduct price negotiations, the Contracting Officer will notify offerors of this decision and the following provisions will apply.

(a) The award decision will be made in accordance with the evaluation factors as set forth in the solicitation. The reverse on-line auction will be used as a pricing technique during discussions to establish the final offered prices from each offeror. These prices will be used in conjunction with the evaluation factors stated elsewhere in the solicitation in order to make the award decision in accordance with the basis for award stated in the solicitation.

(b) Following the decision to conduct discussions using on-line reverse auctioning as a pricing technique, the Contracting Officer or his/her representative will provide offerors determined to be in the competitive range with information concerning the on-line auction process. The Government intends to use a commercial web-based product to conduct the reverse auction.

(c) Prior to or simultaneously with conducting the on-line reverse auction, the Contracting Officer may hold discussions with the offerors concerning matters appropriate for discussion, such as issues involving technical proposals or unbalanced pricing.

(d) The lowest offerors price(s) for each round of the reverse auction will be disclosed to other offerors and anyone else having authorized access to the on-line auction. This disclosure is anonymous, meaning that each offerors identity will be concealed from other offerors (although it will be known to the Government; only a generic identifier will be used for each offerors proposed pricing, such as Offeror A or lowest-priced offeror). By submitting a proposal in response to the solicitation, offerors agree to participate in the reverse auction and that their prices may be disclosed, including to other offerors, during the reverse auction.

(e) The reverse auction system currently in use designates offers as "Lead," meaning the current low price in that auction, or "Not

Lead," meaning not the current low price in that auction. In the event of a tie offer, the reverse auction provider's system designates the first offer of that price as "Lead" and the second or subsequent offer of that price as "Not Lead." Offerors shall not submit a tie offer, since this is inconsistent with the purpose of the reverse auction. If a tie offer is submitted, the "Not Lead" offeror that submitted the tie offer must offer a changed price; it will be ineligible for award if the final price in the auction is the tie offer price.

(f) An offerors final auction price at the close of the reverse auction will be considered its final proposal revision. No price revisions will be accepted after the close of the reverse auction, unless the Contracting Officer decides that further discussions are needed and final proposal revisions are again requested in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 15.307, or the

Contracting Officer determines that it would be in the best interest of the Government to re-open the auction.

(g) The following information is provided regarding the procedures to be followed if a reverse auction is conducted.

(1) Each offeror identified by the Contracting Officer as a participant in the reverse auction will be contacted by Defense Logistic

Agencys commercial reverse auction service provider to advise the offeror of the event and to provide an explanation of the process.

(2) In order for an Offeror to participate in the reverse auction, such offeror must agree with terms and conditions of the entire solicitation, including this provision, and agree to the commercial reverse auction service providers terms and conditions for using its service. Information concerning the reverse auction process and the commercial service providers terms and conditions is embedded within the email notification sent by the on-line reverse auction pricing tool system administrator.

(3) Offerors shall secure the passwords and other confidential materials provided by the commercial reverse auction service provider or

6 10

Name of Offeror or Contractor:

PIIN/SIIN MOD/AMD

the Government and ensure they are used only for purposes of participation in the reverse auction. Offerors shall keep their own and other offerors pricing in confidence until after contract award.

(4) Any offeror unable to enter pricing through the commercial reverse auction service providers system during a reverse auction must notify the Contracting Officer or designated representative immediately. The Contracting Officer may, at his/her sole discretion, extend or re-open the reverse auction if the reason for the offerors inability to enter pricing is determined to be without fault on the part of the offeror and outside the offerors control.

(5) The reverse auction will be conducted using the commercial reverse auction service providers website as embedded in the email notification. Offerors shall be responsible for providing their own computer and internet connection.

(6) Training:

(i) The commercial reverse auction service provider will provide familiarization training to offerors employees; this training may be provided through written material, the commercial reverse auction service providers website, and/or other means.

(ii) An employee of an offeror who successfully completes the training shall be designated as a 'trained offeror.' Only trained offerors may participate in a reverse auction. The Contracting Officer reserves the right to request that offerors provide an alternate offeror employee to become a 'trained offeror.' The Contracting Officer also reserves the right to take away the 'trained offeror' designation from any trained offeror who fails to abide by the solicitations or commercial reverse auction service providers terms and conditions.

Agency Protests

Companies protesting this procurement may file a protest 1) with the contracting officer, 2) with the General Accounting Office, or 3) pursuant to Executive Order No. 12979, with the Agency for a decision by the Activity's Chief of the Contracting Office. Protests filed with the agency should clearly state that they are an "Agency Level Protest under Executive Order No. 12979." (Note: DLA procedures for

Agency Level Protests filed under Executive Order No. 12979 allow for a higher level decision on the initial protest than would occur with a protest to the contracting officer; this process is not an appellate review of a contracting officer's decision on a protest previously filed with the contracting officer). Absent a clear indication of the intent to file an agency level protest, protests will be presumed to be protests to the contracting officer.

NOTE: DLA Agency Protests for DLA Warren shall be filed with:

Chief of the Contracting Office

DLA Land Warren

Mail Stop 729; ZG

6501 E. Eleven Mile Road

Warren, MI 48397-5000

Contracting Officer Protests shall be submitted to the Contracting Officer designated in the solicitation or award.

Provision for Waiver of Required First Article Approval

(a) The requirement entitled FIRST ARTICLE APPROVAL in Section I of this solicitation may be waived by the Government, provided that the offeror meets the conditions identified below.

(1) Offerors who intend to request a waiver or partial waiver of the First Article Test must provide sufficient information in order for the Government to determine whether the request is to be approved. If the offeror intends to request a waiver, a First Article

Waiver Worksheet must be completed and submitted to the Government along with any supporting documentation. The worksheet can be found as an attachment/exhibit to the solicitation or by contating the contract specialist on page 1.

The offerors request will not be considered if the worksheet and any supporting documentation is not submitted to the Government. The worksheet must be completed in its entirety. For those sections of the worksheet which do not apply, annotate with N/A (not applicable).

To substantiate or clarify information provided by the offeror, the Government may request additional information

(2) Offerors should not assume that the FAT waiver request will be granted even if the completed worksheet and any supporting information is submitted to the Government.

(3) The worksheet and any additional supporting documentation is part of your quote/offer and must be submitted as part of the response to this solicitation on Company letterhead and signed by an agent of the Company.

(4) The offeror may request a waiver for only a portion of the First Article Test, such as a vibration test or a salt water spray test, or the test on a component or subassembly of the procured item.

(5) The offeror shall list specifically on the worksheet, by technical data package reference, that portion of the test requested to be waived. The references shall include but may not be limited to the following as applicable:

(2) Copy of a First Article Test report for the same or a similar item as that herein solicited. (3) Copy of an ACO or PCO letter approving a prior waiver request. (4) If the waiver request is based on similarity, a copy of the drawing/other appropriate technical requirements of the similar item.

(ii) If a copy of a First Article Test report is submitted in support of a request for waiver under this solicitation, the test report must have been approved and signed by an authorized representative of the Government.

(iii) The FAT report and all supporting documentation should be submitted by electronic media and should accompany the offerors proposal. If the FAT report and supporting documentation cannot be transmitted by electronic media, the offeror shall contact the PCO for further instruction.

(b) Note that if a waiver is granted to the successful offeror, an accelerated delivery schedule will apply. See Section F.

(c) Note: Cost considerations shall apply for approving a waiver or a portion thereof of a First Article Test.

Destinations for Option Quantities

To compute a price for any option quantity, assume you'll be shipping a proportional share of the option quantity to each destination scheduled to receive shipments of the same item under the basic contract. For example, if the basic contract involves one third of the quantity to go to destination X, and two thirds to destination Y, assume those same percentages will apply to any option quantities the Government will exercise.

Packaging Level for Option Quantities

For purposes of computing a price for the option quantity specified in Section B of this solicitation and unless otherwise indicated in Section B, it is understood and agreed that the option unit price includes the same level(s) of packing/packaging as those that apply to the basic contract quantity.

Offerors Quality Assurance System Copy

(a) This solicitation will result in a contract that will require the contractor to use a quality-assurance system to ensure the quality of the contract items.

(b) To allow DLA Land Warren to analyze your proposed quality system, especially if that system is not based on a national or international standard, you must identify your system as part of your response to this solicitation.

(1) If the Government is requiring ISO 9001:2000 (tailored: delete paragraph 7.3) where you will be required to supply conforming product to an established design, and your quality system conforms to ISO 9002, MIL-I-45208 or another comparable specification or standard, this is sufficient description: you need not further describe your quality system in response to this solicitation.

(2) If the Government is requiring ISO 9001:2000 (untailored) where your capability to design and supply conforming product needs to be demonstrated, and your quality system conforms to ISO 9001, MIL-Q-9858, or another comparable specification or standard, this is sufficient description: you do not need to further describe your quality system in your response to this solicitation.

Note: If the Government is requiring ISO 9001:2000 (untailored), quality systems conforming to ISO 9002 or MIL-I-45208 or comparable quality systems are not acceptable for this contract.

(3) If your quality system does not conform to any of the standards listed immediately above, identify the name of the quality system you intend to use and provide a description of your proposed system in enough detail to let us assess its suitability for use in performing the resulting contract. This is of particular importance if your proposed system is unique, using quality control methods and techniques that your company has developed in-house.
