Section M, in its entirety, very carefully. This acquisition will be awarded based on evaluation of the Offerors' proposals, using the factors and sub-factors listed in Sections L & M of the Request for Proposal. The acquisition will be awarded to the Offeror who provides the best value to the Government; therefore, the award may be made to other than the low Offeror.

Competitive Acquisition. The Government intends to award a contract resulting from this solicitation without discussions with Offerors

(except clarifications described in FAR 15.306(a). Initial proposals should contain the Offeror's best terms from a price, past performance, and technical approach standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if determined necessary by the

Contracting Officer.

7. Offerors are cautioned to ensure that their proposals are fully complete, including all fill-ins and blanks in the solicitation. All

Offerors shall provide prices for items that conform to the Technical Data Package (TDP) provided with this RFP only. No alternate designs will be considered for award.

8. A quantity of 32,000 each M548 Metal Ammunition Container is the Guaranteed Minimum Quantity to be awarded under this solicitation and specifically represents the "Guaranteed Minimum Quantity" in the Delivery Order Period one (1) as defined by and referenced in FAR

52.216-19 Order Limitations, 52.216-22 Indefinite Quantity and DFARS 252.216-7006 Ordering, clauses contained within this solicitation in full text.

If an Offeror does not provide an initial EPA pricing with their proposal, the

Government will interpret omission as a waiver of the EPA clause by the contractor. See EPA Pricing Sheet (Attachment 0001).

Material Enforcement Regulations (see URL: ://www.alsc.org). The box/pallet manufacturer and the manufacturer of wood used as inner packaging shall ensure traceability to the original source of heat treatment marking. Each box/pallet shall be marked to show the conformance to the International Plant Protection Convention Standard. The quality mark shall be placed on both ends of the outer packaging, between the end cleats or end battens. Pallet markings shall be applied to the stringer or block on diagonally opposite sides or ends of the pallet and be contrasting and clearly visible. All dunnage lumber used in configuring and/or securing the load shall also comply with ISPM-15 and be marked with an ALSC approved dunnage stamp on opposite surfaces.

Government Quality Assurance Representative (QAR) for review prior to implementation. Rework procedures are subject to the QAR's disapproval.

(c) Repair procedures shall be documented by the Contractor and submitted on a Request for Deviation/Waiver, DD Form 1694, to the

Contracting Officer for review and written approval prior to implementation.

(d) Whenever the Contractor submits a repair or rework procedure for Government review, the submission shall also include a description of the cause for the nonconformances and a description of the action taken or to be taken to prevent recurrence.

(e) The rework or repair procedure shall also contain a provision for reinspection which will take precedence over the Technical Data

Package requirements and shall, in addition, provide the Government assurance that the reworked or repaired items have met reprocessing requirements.
