The Contracting Officer may utilize on-line Reverse Auctioning as a means of conducting price discussions under this solicitation.  During the course of the on-line auction, offeror's proposed prices will be publicly disclosed to other offeror's and anyone else having access to the on-line auction. This public disclosure is anonymous, meaning that each offeror's identity will be concealed from other offeror's (although it will be known to the Government), and only generic identifiers will be used publicly for each offeror's proposed pricing (e.g., "Offeror A").  By submitting a proposal in response to the solicitation, offeror's agree to participate in the Reverse Auction and that their prices may be publicly disclosed, including to other offeror's, during the Reverse Auction.  An offeror's final auction price will be considered its final proposal revision.  No price revisions will be accepted after the close of the Reverse Auction, unless the Contracting Officer decides that further discussions are needed and final proposal revisions are again requested in accordance with FAR 15.307.  In addition, online training is available at https://dla.procurexinc.com/_theme/dla/Pages/default.aspx once you have registered and have logged in.  Questions about ProcureX can be directed to ProcureX at 1-866-412-7161 ext. 1 or email service@procurexinc.com.
