Attachment 0006 - Product Demonstration Requirements

1.0 pRFID-III PRODUCT DEMONSTRATION REQUIREMENTS

1.1 The objective of the pRFID-III Product Demonstration is to provide the Government with an opportunity to observe the Offeror's hardware and software in operation and to familiarize the Government with the various features of the Offeror's hardware and software. The Product Demonstration will be part of the Solicitation’s Evaluation.

1.2 Offerors are required to provide all equipment to include all materials needed to successfully demonstrate the products proposed. All equipment will be exact matches and configuration to the CLINs being proposed in the Offerors Solicitation. Any unique hardware or software customization for the purpose of the pRFID-III Product Demonstration shall be disclosed to the Government representatives during the actual demonstration.

1.3 All communications will be limited to the demonstration. Questions outside the demonstration such as proposal status, project status, etc., will not be entertained.

1.4 The Offeror shall prepare an Audit List, based on the Bill of Material (L.8.1.3), illustrating the CLIN, manufacturer, make, model number, serial number, and part number of all proposed equipment (to include cables, AC Adapters, etc.) to be used in the demonstration.

As the first agenda event, prior to the demonstration, the Government's team will perform an audit of the demonstration equipment for all demonstrations listed below. Offeror’s personnel shall assist the Government personnel in verifying this information.

1.5 The Government reserves the right to take pictures of any or all equipment during the demonstration to document either the equipment involved or the procedures used in the demonstration.

1.6 At the conclusion of the Offeror’s Demonstration, the Offeror's pRFID-III hardware and software shall be made available to the Government for independent, hands-on operation and evaluation without Offeror personnel present. The Offeror shall have technical personnel available during the Government evaluation to assist Government personnel in the operation of the hardware and software — if necessary — and to answer questions as they may arise. This evaluation will be used to assist the Government both in determining the extent to which an Offeror's pRFID-III hardware and software addresses certain requirements of the PWS as well as to provide the Government additional data to assess the value of the Offeror’s proposal relevant to the evaluation criteria stated in Section M, of this RFP.

1.7 The Government will specify the media to be used during the Demonstration. The “density” of bar codes specified herein refers to “x” dimensions for linear bar codes and PDF 417, and to the cell width module for Data Matrix 2D symbology.

DRAFT

1.8 All pRFID-III Product Demonstrations shall be attempted. Suspected failed equipment may be replaced during a demonstration, however, the demonstration shall be restarted from the beginning of the particular demonstration, until it is completed as per the Demonstration Requirement.

1.9 The pRFID-III Product Demonstrations will be conducted at a site provided by the Offeror at a location of the Offeror’s own choosing within a 30 mile radius of the PD AMIS office in Fort Belvoir, VA.
