Protest Information:

NG Agency Protest Program is intended to encourage interested parties to seek resolution of their concerns with the National Guard (NG) as an Alternative Dispute Resolution forum, rather than filing a protest with the Government Accountability Office (GAO) or other external forum.

Contract award or performance is suspended during the protest to the same extent, and within the same time periods as if filed at the GAO. The NG protest decision goal is to resolve protests within 35 calendar days from filing. An agency protest may be filed with either the Contracting Officer or the NG Agency’s Protest Decision Authority, but not both, in accordance with NG protest procedures.

To be timely, the protests must be filed with the periods specified in FAR 33.103. To file a protest under the NG Agency Protest Program, the protest must request resolution under that program and be sent to the address below:

National Guard Bureau Office of the Director of Acquisitions/ Head of Contracting Activity

ATTN: NGB-AQ-O

111 S. George Mason Dr.

Arlington, VA 22204 Email: ng.ncr.ngb-arng.mbx.ngb-task-order-ombudsman@mail.mil

All other agency-level protests should be sent to the Contracting Officer for resolution at the address in the solicitation. See FAR clause 52.233-2.

EVALUATION CRITERIA

FAR Provision 52.212-2, Evaluation -- Commercial Items, applies to this acquisition. As prescribed in FAR 12.301(c), the following addendum is provided for this solicitation and hereby amends any language therein:

The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government price and other factors considered. The Government may award without discussions; however, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if deemed in the Government's best interest. Quotes will be evaluated on conformance to the SOW, price, and past performance based on a review of FAPIIS and SPRS. Award will be based on the offer that represents the best value to the Government.

NOTE: The Government will perform a comparative evaluation (comparing quotes to each other) to select the contractor that is best suited and provides the best value, considering the evaluation factors in this solicitation. No adjectival ratings will be assigned to the evaluation factors. The award will be based on price and other factors as listed above. The lowest priced offer may not necessarily represent the best value to the Government.

LOCAL REQUIREMENTS

A. CHANGES TO CONTRACT / PURCHASE ORDER / DELIVERY ORDER

The Contracting Officer (CO) is the only person authorized to approve changes or modify any of the requirements under the resulting contract and, notwithstanding any clauses contained elsewhere in this contract, the said authority remains solely with the CO. In the event the Contractor effects any such change at the direction of any person other than the CO, the change will be considered to have been made without authority and no adjustment will be made in the contract price to cover any increase in costs incurred as a result thereof.

Contractual problems, of any nature, which might occur during the life of the contract shall be handled in conformance with public law and regulations and shall be referred to the CO for resolution. Only the CO is authorized to formally resolve such problems. Therefore, the contractor is here directed to bring all such contractual problems to the immediate attention of the CO. Any request for contract changes/modification shall be submitted to the CO.

B. SAM.GOV REGISTRATION

All contractors shall be registered at System for Award Management (SAM.GOV) in order to be considered for award.

This is a single-entry point for contractor’s to process SAM, Online Representations and Certifications Application (ORCA), and Excluded Parties List System (EPLS). Invoices received from a contractor who fails to maintain active SAM registration are considered to be improper and may be returned. The contractor is responsible to maintain active SAM registration until final payment has been made. SAM registration shall be updated and renewed annually. If the contractor chooses not to publish their information in SAM.GOV, you SHALL fill out and return FAR Provision 52.212-3 Offeror Representations and Certifications – Commercial Items to include the Tax Identification Number within this Provision.
