The Solicitation is issued in accordance with FAR Part 12 (Acquisition of Commercial Items) and FAR Part 13.5 (Simplified Procedures for Certain Commercial Products and Commercial Services). The result of this Solicitation will be a Firm Fixed Price (FFP), 3-year Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contract. Award will be based on the lowest priced, responsive, responsible contractor quote whose offer conforms to the Solicitation requirement to include delivery schedule and represents the lowest total evaluated price. Contractor responsibility will be determined as outlined by FAR 9.104-1.

The IDIQ will include a Three-year, One-year evaluated ordering periods as followed:

Ordering Period One: Date of Contract to 365 Calendar Day Ordering Period Two: 366 Calendar Day to 731 Calendar Day Ordering Period Three: 732 Calendar Day to 1,096 Calendar Day

*Actual dates will be clarified at the time of award.

2. Any offeror submitting a quote agrees by submission that their quote and the prices contained therein will be valid for 90 days after receipt of proposals.

EAST END, RECG DOOR 16A

ROCK ISLAND, IL 61299-5000

Failure to comply with the contractual delivery schedule after Award may result in termination of the order or require consideration if the Government elects to extend your delivery. The Government is not required to extend your deliver schedule if you encounter delays. The non-availability of raw materials, subcontractor issues, scheduling conflict, etc., are not acceptable excuse for failing to meet your delivery schedule. If there is going to be a delay in delivery, the contractor is required to notify the Contract Specialist and/or Contracting Officer designated in this purchase order prior to being late.

Contractors must provide written notice of what the delay is, the new proposed delivery schedule, and offered consideration for the delay for Government consideration. If the Government elects to extend your delivery, a formal modification will be implemented.

It is the responsibility of the contractor to ensure they are providing quality products that conform to the purchase order terms and conditions (to include delivery schedule). Delivery of non-conforming products results in delivery/acceptance delays and increased cost to the Government. Early Delivery is acceptable upon approval of the Government.

8. Warranty:

A commercial standard warranty (to include parts and labor) is required for all CLINS. All warranties will begin upon final acceptance by the United States Government (USG). Contractor shall provide the product warranty information IAW (Attachment 0002 CDRL_0002_Product_Warranty_Information) upon Award.

9. Payment:

Payment will be paid by Defense Finance and Accounting Systems (DFAS) via Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) upon submission of invoices. Only Electronic invoices, submitted through WAWF, will be accepted. All other formats will be rejected.

10. Instructions, Conditions and Notice to Vendors:

Offerors shall complete Price Matrix (Attachment_0004 Price_Matrix_Cabinet_Sets). Pricing provided ONLY at the CLIN level is not acceptable. Each cell that requires the Offeror’s input on the Price Matrix has been highlighted in BLUE. The offeror shall enter firm fixed prices for each CLIN, Ordering Period, and Quantity Ranges on the applicable Price Matrix (Attachment 0004).

Proposed unit prices must be submitted on an FOB Destination basis. Ship to location is Rock Island, IL 61299- 5000. The quantity ranges on the Price Matrix are provided solely for the purpose of establishing reasonable ranges of quantities against which to provide prices in the event all delivery orders are executed. To be acceptable, an offer must include firm fixed unit prices for all CLINs, all ordering periods and quantity ranges listed on the Price Matrix.

Any order placed against the resulting contract will be at the unit price offered by the Contractor for the applicable quantity range and ordering period. Failure to complete the Price Matrix in its entirety may deem an offeror as non-responsive. No other information is to be added to the Price Matrix, nor shall Offerors make any changes to the Price Matrix.

All proposed unit prices are limited to two decimal places and shall be stated in current U.S. dollars. All unit prices proposed will be binding. The Government reserves the right to require the submission of any data (i.e. certified cost or pricing data or data other than certified cost or pricing data) necessary to validate the reasonableness of an offer.

Award will be made to the Offeror whose quote represents the lowest total evaluated price. Therefore, the Contractor’s initial quote should contain the Contractor’s best terms.

Any order placed against the resulting contract will be at the unit price offered by the Contractor for the applicable quantity range and ordering period based on the date the delivery order is issued. Upon award, Delivery Order 0001 will be placed for at least the guaranteed minimum quantity.

11. Evaluation Factors for Award:

Award will be made to the Offeror whose quote represents the lowest total evaluated price. Therefore, the Contractor’s initial quote should contain the Contractor’s best terms.

Clause 252.216-7000, Economic Price Adjustment – Basic Steel, Aluminum, Brass, Bronze, or Copper Mill Products, is not applicable to this solicitation and subsequent contract; therefore, please quote accordingly.

a. The Government will evaluate offers based on prices proposed for all Ordering Periods and any other price related factors required by the solicitation. Prices will be determined fair and reasonable IAW

FAR 13.106-2.

b. For each quote, the Government will calculate a weighted average price for each CLIN by multiplying the proposed unit prices for each Quantity Range and Ordering Period by their respective weight. Note that the weight associated with each range represents the likelihood that an order, if placed, would be placed within that range. The weighted average unit price is then multiplied by the estimated annual quantity for each ordering period to calculate an estimated annual total price. Note that the annual estimated quantity is just an estimate for evaluation purposes only and does not bind the Government to purchase those quantities in any ordering period.

c. The Total Evaluated Price is the sum of the evaluated price for each CLIN.

d. If an offeror fails to submit unit prices for all quantity ranges and Ordering Periods listed on the Price Evaluation Sheet, its proposal may be considered unacceptable, and the Government may reject the quote.

e. Please revert to paragraph 1 for additional information.

12. All offerors must complete the following. Failure to comply may result in your firm being considered non-compliant.

FAR 52.223-22 – Public Disclosure of Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Reduction Goals – Representation is included in this solicitation.

Did your firm receive $7.5 million or more in Federal contract awards in the prior Federal fiscal year?

Please place an “X” next to the appropriate answer.

Yes ______ Completion of 52.223-22, located in the Addendum to 52.212-1 below is required.

No ______ No further action for this provision is required.

(SEP 2023)

(a) North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code and small business size standard. The NAICS code(s) and small business size standard(s) for this acquisition appear elsewhere in the solicitation. However, the small business size standard for a concern that submits an offer, other than on a construction or service acquisition, but proposes to furnish an end item that it did not itself manufacture, process, or produce is 500 employees, or 150 employees for information technology value-added resellers under NAICS code 541519, if the acquisition--

(1) Is set aside for small business and has a value above the simplified acquisition threshold;

(2) Uses the HUBZone price evaluation preference regardless of dollar value, unless the offeror waives the price evaluation preference; or

(3) Is an 8(a), HUBZone, service-disabled veteran-owned, economically disadvantaged women-owned, or women-owned small business set-aside or sole-source award regardless of dollar value.

(b) Submission of offers. Submit signed and dated offers to the office specified in this solicitation at or before the exact time specified in this solicitation. Offers may be submitted on the SF 1449, letterhead stationery, or as otherwise specified in the solicitation. As a minimum, offers must show--

(2) The time specified in the solicitation for receipt of offers;

(3) The name, address, and telephone number of the offeror;

(6) Price and any discount terms;

(7) "Remit to" address, if different than mailing address;

(8) A completed copy of the representations and certifications at Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 52.212-3 (see FAR 52.212-3(b) for those representations and certifications that the offeror shall complete electronically);

(9) Acknowledgment of Solicitation Amendments;

(10) Past performance information, when included as an evaluation factor, to include recent and relevant contracts for the same or similar items and other references (including contract numbers, points of contact with telephone numbers and other relevant information); and

(11) If the offer is not submitted on the SF 1449, include a statement specifying the extent of agreement with all terms, conditions, and provisions included in the solicitation. Offers that fail to furnish required representations or information, or reject the terms and conditions of the solicitation may be excluded from consideration.

(c) Period for acceptance of offers. The offeror agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 30 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of offers, unless another time period is specified in an addendum to the solicitation.

(d) Product samples. When required by the solicitation, product samples shall be submitted at or prior to the time specified for receipt of offers. Unless otherwise specified in this solicitation, these samples shall be submitted at no expense to the Government, and returned at the sender's request and expense, unless they are destroyed during preaward testing.

(e) Multiple offers. Offerors are encouraged to submit multiple offers presenting alternative terms and conditions, including alternative line items (provided that the alternative line items are consistent with FAR subpart 4.10), or alternative commercial products or commercial services for satisfying the requirements of this solicitation. Each offer submitted will be evaluated separately.

(f) Late submissions, modifications, revisions, and withdrawals of offers:

(1) Offerors are responsible for submitting offers, and any modifications, revisions, or withdrawals, so as to reach the Government office designated in the solicitation by the time specified in the solicitation. If no time is specified in the solicitation, the time for receipt is 4:30 p.m., local time, for the designated Government office on the date that offers or revisions are due.

(2)(i) Any offer, modification, revision, or withdrawal of an offer received at the Government office designated in the solicitation after the exact time specified for receipt of offers is “late” and will not be considered unless it is received before award is made, the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late offer would not unduly delay the acquisition; and--

(A) If it was transmitted through an electronic commerce method authorized by the solicitation, it was received at the initial point of entry to the Government infrastructure not later than 5:00 p.m. one working day prior to the date specified for receipt of offers; or

(B) There is acceptable evidence to establish that it was received at the Government installation designated for receipt of offers and was under the Government's control prior to the time set for receipt of offers; or

(C) If this solicitation is a request for proposals, it was the only proposal received.

(ii) However, a late modification of an otherwise successful offer, that makes its terms more favorable to the Government, will be considered at any time it is received and may be accepted.

(3) Acceptable evidence to establish the time of receipt at the Government installation includes the time/date stamp of that installation on the offer wrapper, other documentary evidence of receipt maintained by the installation, or oral testimony or statements of Government personnel.

(4) If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal Government processes so that offers cannot be received at the Government office designated for receipt of offers by the exact time specified in the solicitation, and urgent Government requirements preclude amendment of the solicitation or other notice of an extension of the closing date, the time specified for receipt of offers will be deemed to be extended to the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day on which normal Government processes resume.

(5) Offers may be withdrawn by written notice received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of offers.

Oral offers in response to oral solicitations may be withdrawn orally. If the solicitation authorizes facsimile offers, offers may be withdrawn via facsimile received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of offers, subject to the conditions specified in the solicitation concerning facsimile offers. An offer may be withdrawn in person by an offeror or its authorized representative if, before the exact time set for receipt of offers, the identity of the person requesting withdrawal is established and the person signs a receipt for the offer.

(g) Contract award (not applicable to Invitation for Bids). The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror's initial offer should contain the offeror's best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.

(h) Multiple awards. The Government may accept any item or group of items of an offer, unless the offeror qualifies the offer by specific limitations. Unless otherwise provided in the Schedule, offers may not be submitted for quantities less than those specified. The Government reserves the right to make an award on any item for a quantity less than the quantity offered, at the unit prices offered, unless the offeror specifies otherwise in the offer.

(i) Availability of requirements documents cited in the solicitation.

(1)(i) The GSA Index of Federal Specifications, Standards and Commercial Item Descriptions, FPMR Part 101-29, and copies of Federal specifications, standards, and product descriptions can be downloaded from the ASSIST website at https://assist.dla.mil.

(ii) If the General Services Administration, Department of Agriculture, or Department of Veterans Affairs issued this solicitation, a copy of specifications, standards, and commercial item descriptions cited in this solicitation may be obtained from the address in paragraph (i)(1)(i) of this provision.

(2) Most unclassified Defense specifications and standards may be downloaded from the ASSIST website at https://assist.dla.mil.

(3) Defense documents not available from the ASSIST website may be requested from the Defense Standardization Program Office by--

(4) Nongovernment (voluntary) standards must be obtained from the organization responsible for their preparation, publication, or maintenance.

(j) Unique entity identifier. (Applies to all offers that exceed the micro-purchase threshold, and offers at or below the micro-purchase threshold if the solicitation requires the Contractor to be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM).) The Offeror shall enter, in the block with its name and address on the cover page of its offer, the annotation "Unique Entity Identifier" followed by the unique entity identifier that identifies the Offeror's name and address. The Offeror also shall enter its Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) indicator, if applicable. The EFT indicator is a four-character suffix to the unique entity identifier. The suffix is assigned at the discretion of the Offeror to establish additional SAM records for identifying alternative EFT accounts (see FAR subpart 32.11) for the same entity. If the Offeror does not have a unique entity identifier, it should contact the entity designated at www.sam.gov for unique entity identifier establishment directly to obtain one. The Offeror should indicate that it is an offeror for a Government contract when contacting the entity designated at www.sam.gov for establishing the unique entity identifier.

(k) Reserved.

(l) Debriefing. If a post-award debriefing is given to requesting offerors, the Government shall disclose the following information, if applicable:

(1) The agency's evaluation of the significant weak or deficient factors in the debriefed offeror's offer.

(2) The overall evaluated cost or price and technical rating of the successful and the debriefed offeror and past performance information on the debriefed offeror.

(4) A summary of the rationale for award;

(5) For acquisitions of commercial products, the make and model of the product to be delivered by the successful offeror.
