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 subpart 4.10 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation), or alternative commercial items 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

(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.

(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.

ADDENDUM TO FAR 52.212-1, INSTRUCTIONS TO THE OFFERORS-COMMERCIAL

ITEMS (JUN 2020)

1. CONTRACT AWARD:

1.1. The Government intends to execute a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contract to provide Grass cutting, Vegetation Removal and Snow and Ice Removal Services. Award will be made to the responsible offeror submitting the Lowest Priced, Technically Acceptable (LPTA) offer in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Parts 12 and 13.5 that satisfies all terms and conditions of the solicitation, and who is determined to be responsible in accordance with FAR 9.104-1. Offers will be evaluated for acceptability, but not ranked using the non-cost factors/subfactors. All non-cost factors and subfactors will be rated as either "acceptable" or "unacceptable". In order to be considered for award, there must be an “acceptable" rating in every non-price factor/subfactor. In other words, a rating of "unacceptable" for any factor or subfactor will result in the entire offer being rated "unacceptable".

1.2. In accordance with FAR 52.212-1 “Instructions to Offerors-Commercial Items (Jun 20), the Government reserves the right, based on the Government’s best interests, to make a determination to: 1) award without discussions; 2) make a single award for this requirement; 3) establish a competitive range in order to conduct discussions; and/or 4) make no award if, upon evaluation, none of the proposals are deemed likely to meet the requirements.

1.3. The Government intends to evaluate and make award without discussion with the offerors (other than minor clarifications), unless discussions are determined to be necessary. If discussions are determined to be necessary, then the Contracting Officer reserves the right to limit the competitive range for the purposes of efficiency.

1.4. Award will be made on the basis of the lowest evaluated price of proposals meeting or exceeding the acceptability standards for non-cost factors.

2. PROPOSAL SUBMISSION: Offerors’ proposals shall adhere to the following instructions:

2.1. These instructions are designed to ensure submission of essential information in order for the Government to understand and evaluate proposals. Offerors are cautioned to follow the detailed instructions fully and carefully, as the Government reserves the right to make award based on initial offers received, without discussions with Offerors. The successful offeror's technical proposal related to the Contractor’s qualification and Key Personnel’s qualification, in accordance with PWS, shall be incorporated into the resultant contract as part of the PWS. The successful offeror shall be obligated to perform in accordance with the incorporated technical proposal. Nothing contained in the incorporated proposal shall be interpreted as permitting the successful offeror to perform less than required by the unincorporated portions of the PWS or other terms of the contract, or otherwise constituting a waiver of other requirements of the contract.

2.2. Contractor Team Arrangements: A contractor team arrangement (CTA) means an arrangement in which two or more companies form a partnership or joint venture to act as a potential prime contractor or a potential prime contractor agrees with one or more other companies to have them act as its subcontractors under a specified Government contract or acquisition program. A CTA is not an arrangement in which two or more companies form a separate legal entity, such as a corporation or limited liability company, to act as a potential prime contractor.

2.2.1. The Government will, when applicable, recognize the integrity and validity of CTAs when identified and fully disclosed to the Contracting Officer. Offerors proposing a CTA must identify and fully disclose contractor team arrangements relationships in their offer/proposal. A CTA must be in writing.

2.2.2. After award, the Contractor must notify the Contracting Officer and CTA arrangement with subcontractor(s) within 10 days prior to any projected performance by the new subcontractor.

2.2.3. For offerors proposing a partnership/joint venture CTA: The CTA must do business under the CTA name, must register in SAM under the CTA name, must provide documents vesting an individual with the authority of the partners to bind the CTA, and must designate a single point of contact for the CTA.

2.2.4. The Government will perform a responsibility determination on a CTA just as it would on any prospective contract awardee.

2.3. Offerors are required to submit complete proposals (Eligibility For Award of ROK MND Contracts, Technical Proposal, Past Performance Proposal, and Price Proposal) and also submit the documents listed below in Paragraphs 2.4 - 2.12 via email to achong.yim.ln@mail.mil and yesik.cho2.ln@mail.mil by 10:00 hours on closing date of Block #8 of the SF 1449, (Local Korea Time) as indicated in Block #8 of the solicitation as following format:

Factor II - Past Performance: Past performance shall be evaluated on an acceptable/unacceptable basis.

Offerors are authorized to provide information on the problems encountered on the identified contracts and the Offeror’s corrective actions. The Government may ascertain past performance information on the Offeror from sources other than the references provided. In the case of an Offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the Offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance (see FAR 15.305 (a)(2)(iv)).

Note: Offerors are reminded that while the Government may elect to consider data obtained from other sources, the Government does not assume the duty to search for data to cure problems it finds in the proposals. The burden of providing thorough and complete past performance information rests with the Offeror.

2.7. Price Proposal

As part of price evaluation, the Government will evaluate its option to extend services (FAR Clause 52.217-8 Option to Extend Services) by adding one-half of the Offeror's final option period prices to the Offeror's total price.
