Section B - Supplies or Services & Prices or Costs

Additional Information/Notes

IAW 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) FAR 6.302-1(a)(2). "A limited number of responsible sources and no other type of supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements, full and open competition need not be accounted for." In the event only one proposal is received, this requirement will be evaluated as a sole source action, and all sole source procedures will be followed. See provision 252.215-7992, Only One Offer.

This is a 5-year indefinite delivery requirements (IDR) type solicitation. Funds will be obligated /cited upon the issuance of each delivery order. The estimated quantities herein are not a representation to an offeror or contractor that the estimated quantity will be required or ordered, or that conditions affecting requirements will be stable or normal.

The estimated quantities annotated within this solicitation are based on the most current requirement information available. The government intends to procure a minimum quantity of 150 each. The government is not obligated to issue any orders against this contract. However, the government reserves the right to order any quantity above the contract intended minimum quantity for the duration of this contract.

By replying to this solicitation and submitting a quotation or proposal, the offeror is acknowledging its ability to support this requirement for the full solicited time period.

The government has segregated the estimated quantities into five one-year ordering periods.

However, this does not prevent the government from exercising its rights under FAR 52.216-21 at any time during the requirement period.

Prices quoted for each ordering year will be valid for all quantities ordered during that ordering period. The solicitation is for the supplies as detailed on the following pages. Offerors are cautioned to ensure that offers are provided on all quantities. Failure to propose all CLINs, may result in a determination of non-responsiveness. An offer may be rejected if the government determines that the offer is materially unbalanced or if the offer contains unbalanced pricing.

Year 1 will be from date of award through 365 days after contract award (DACA).

Year 2 will begin 366 DACA and end 730 DACA.

Year 3 will begin 731 DACA and end 1,095 DACA.

Year 4 will begin 1,096 DACA and end 1,460 DACA.

Year 5 will begin 1,461 DACA and end 1,825 DACA.

All references to F.O.B. Origin throughout this solicitation apply to all quantities ordered after the first delivery order. The estimated quantity listed herein does not commit the government to order that or any quantity above the minimum quantity. The government intends to award only one Requirements-type basic contract as a result of this solicitation.

Class I ECPs should be limited to those that are necessary or offer significant benefit to the Government. Class I ECPs are those that affect the performance, reliability, maintainability, survivability, weight, balance, moment of inertia, interface characteristics, electromagnetic characteristics, or other technical requirements in the specifications and drawings. Class I ECPs also include those changes that affect Government Furnished Equipment, safety, compatibility, retrofit, operation and maintenance manuals, interchangeability, substitutability, replaceability, source control specifications and drawings, costs, guarantees or warranties, deliveries, or schedules.

(2) Critical RFVs. RFVs written against CIs shall be designated as critical when the RFV consists of acceptance of an item having a nonconformance with contract or configuration documentation involving safety or when there is a departure from a requirement classified as critical in the contractual documentation.

(3) Minor RFVs. RFVs written against CIs shall be designated as minor when the RFV consists of acceptance of an item having a nonconformance with contract or configuration documentation which does not involve any of the factors listed above in paragraphs f(1) or g(2), or when there is a departure from a requirement classified as minor in the contractual documentation.

g. Proposals shall include sufficient technical data to describe all changes from existing contract requirements.

h. Proposals shall include sufficient justification for making the change, including a statement of contract impact, if the change is not authorize.

j. Times allowed for technical decisions for ECP and RFV proposals will be worked out via mutual agreement between the Contractor and the Government.

k. Proposals for VECPs shall set forth a "not less than" price and delivery adjustment acceptable to the Contractor if the Government subsequently approves the proposal. If approved, the savings shall not be less than this amount.

l. The Contractor shall utilize DD Form 2617, "Engineering Release Record" (ERR) to release new or revised configuration documentation to the Government for approval.

m. The Contractor shall utilize DD Form 1695, "Notice of Revision" (NOR) to describe the exact change(s) to configuration documentation specified as a data requirement in the contract. The Contractor shall describe the change using sub-sections entitled "WAS" to describe the current contractual technical requirement and "IS" to describe the proposed new requirement.

3. Submittal. The preferred method of submittal is digitally as a single file in Adobe Acrobat Portable Document Format (PDF). Unless otherwise specified, alternate methods of submittal shall be proposed to and authorized by the PCO prior to submittal. If the hardcopy method is requested and approved, the Contractor shall submit two (2) copies of each proposal to the responsible Administrative Contracting Officer (ACO). One (1) copy of each proposal shall be returned to the Contractor within (5) working days after receipt by the ACO, stating whether or not the proposal is in compliance with this provision.
