SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION L - INSTRUCTIONS, CONDITIONS AND NOTICES TO BIDDERS

The following have been modified:

INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS

If you have any questions or concerns regarding the Inquiry for Bid, please follow the procedures for Bidder Inquiries provided within this document.

Registration at www.sam.gov is required. If not registered, please do so. Step-by-step help information on how to register is detailed on the website, along with frequently asked questions (FAQs). Lack of registration in the SAM database will make an offeror ineligible for award.

Effective 29 April 2018, the notarized letter process is now mandatory on all CURRENT registrants at SAM who have a requirement to update data on their SAM record. The notarized letter is mandatory and is required before the GSA Federal Service Desk (FSD) will activate the entity's registration. Go to https://www.gsa.gov/about-us/organization/federal-acquisition-service/office-of-systems-management/integrated-award-environment-iae/sam-update for more information.

The System for Award Management (SAM) is online. SAM replaces CCR/FedReg, ORCA, and EPLS.

If you have been using those systems, you should now go to www.sam.gov to find your information.

Lack of registration in the SAM Database will make an offeror ineligible for award. Information on how to register and the time required is detailed in the clause. Start by going to www.sam.gov, and then click on the SAM HELP tab. Under User Help you will find the full User Guide as well as Quick Start Guides and Helpful Hints that will help you create an account, migrate your roles, perform updates, and search for the information you need.

An offeror shall complete only paragraph (b) of this provision if the offeror has completed the annual representations and certifications electronically via https://www.acquisition.gov. If an offeror has not completed the annual representations and certifications electronically at the ORCA website, the offeror shall complete only paragraphs (b) through (i) of this provision. When you complete your SAM registration, the link to complete your Representations and Certifications is also available; please be sure these are completed. Please do not hesitate to contact me or the SAM web site if you need assistance or have questions.

OFFERORS are required to complete and submit the Standard Form 33 Back, Bid Schedule.

TELEGRAPHIC BID MODIFICATIONS. The Walla Walla District does not have in-house capability of receiving telegrams directly. Offerors wishing to modify their bid/proposal by telegram are urged to ensure that telegrams are submitted in sufficient time to allow for arrival via U.S. Postal service at the Walla Walla District office PRIOR to the time specified in the solicitation for receipt of bids/proposals.

Bidders shall submit their bids via email to the following individuals by no later than the date and time established in Block 9 of the Standard Form (SF) 33, or Block 14 of the most recently issued SF 30 as applicable:

Brooke Moore, Contracting Officer: brooke.n.moore@usace.army.mil Chandra Crow, Contracting Officer: chandra.d.crow@usace.army.mil

Each email shall contain the following information:

Solicitation No. W912EF20B0010 Bid Due Date and Time: 30 March 2020, 10:00AM Bid Validity Date: 28 July 2020

Bids received after the date and time stated within Block 9 of the SF33, or Block 14 of the most recently issued SF 30 as applicable, will be considered late and will not be considered for award. To avoid rejection of a bid, the offeror must make every effort to ensure its electronic submission is virus-free. Bids, or portions thereof, submitted with the presence of a virus or which are otherwise unreadable will be treated as unreadable pursuant to FAR 15.207(c).

Bidders should enter a description for every file submitted. For files over 20 megabytes (MB) the bidders shall break the file into smaller files sent via separate emails with each email marked to identify which number the email is relative to the total number of emails submitted (i.e. “email one of four”). Once all of the emails submitted have been received the Government will confirm receipt via responsive email. If a bidder submits multiple bids the Government will only consider the last bid submitted prior to the bid due date and time.

Do not assume submission will be instantaneous. File size and number of files submitted shall be considered.

Bidder/Teammate/Subcontractors should allow adequate time for submission completion because the entire bid (i.e.

bidders’ submission and all teammate/subcontractor(s) independent submissions) must be received by the bid due date and time specified in Block 9 of SF 33, or SF 30 as applicable.

Electronic submission of bids satisfies the requirement set forth in Block 9 of the SF 33 (‘…in original and ___ copies…”). Additionally, electronic submission of the bid guarantee, when a bid guarantee is required, is due with the bid submission. Mailing a bid guarantee for submission is not allowed.

BID OPENING

Bidders are advised there will NOT be a physical bid opening held for this invitation for bids. The bid opening will be held telephonically via conference call at 11:00 am on the date bids are due. Due to the requirement that bids be submitted electronically only, the bid opening is scheduled to take place one hour following the bid due date and time in order to allow the contracting office time to download all bid documents submitted. The USACE Walla Walla District will not accept any hard copy documentation submitted in response to this invitation for bids.

Bidders wishing to participate in the telephonic bid opening shall email a list of participants to both Contracting Officer (brooke.n.moore@usace.army.mil) and Contract Specialist (chandra.d.crow@usace.army.mil) no later than the close of business 24 hours prior to the bid due date and time. Please reference “IFB Number and Title” in the email subject line. A responsive email will be sent to the bidder which will include confirmation of the list of participants, the conference call-in telephone number, and the security passcode for participants to utilize for the telephonic bid opening.

PRICE BASIS

Bidders are advised that only bids submitted on a firm price basis will be considered, and that bids submitted on any other than firm price basis will be rejected. (FAR 14.201-2 (a)) NOTE; Bid prices must include all Federal, state, and local taxes in accordance with Contract Clause: FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL TAXES.

ARITHMETIC DISCREPENCIES

(a) The following will be used in resolving arithmetic discrepancies found on the face of the bidding schedule as submitted by the bidder:

(1) In a discrepancy between unit price and extended price, the unit price stated on the bid schedule will govern;

(2) Apparent errors in the extension of unit prices will be corrected;

(3) Apparent errors in the addition of lump-sum and extended prices will be corrected.

(b) For the purpose of bid evaluation, the government will proceed on the assumption that the bidder intends his bid to be evaluated on the basis of the unit prices, the totals arrived at by resolution of arithmetic discrepancies as provided above and the bid will be so reflected on the abstract of bids.

(c) These correction procedures shall not be used to resolve any ambiguity concerning which bid is low.
