The Government reserves the right to make an award on any CLIN or SLIN for a quantity less than the quantity expressed in this solicitation at the unit prices offered.

Noncompliance with the RFP requirements may hamper the Government's ability to properly evaluate the offer and may result in elimination of the offer from further consideration for award.Offeror is cautioned to follow the instructions carefully and is encouraged to present its best technical offer and prices in its initial submission, because the Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Offeror shall submit an offer that is self-sufficient and responds directly to the requirements of this solicitation. If an Offeror believes that the requirements in these instructions contain an error, an ambiguity, omission, or are otherwise deemed unsound, the Offeror shall immediately notify the Contracting Officer (KO) in writing with supporting rationale.

3. REQUIRED CLAUSES AND PROVISIONS: The offeror shall complete and submit with their offer, as appropriate, the following representations, certifications and clauses listed in full text within this solicitation.

Regarding any changes, the offeror represents that the new information is current, accurate, and complete as of the date of its offer and incorporated into it.
