Quoters must respond to ten required submission items including UEI, active SAM registration, representations and certifications via SAM, organizational conflict of interest statements, manufacturing location, small business status verification under NAICS 334519, and approximate lead time for delivery. Evaluation criteria are specifications compliance (evaluated by NOAA and SFSC), past performance on related contracts with two to three references, and price for total CLIN 0001 including shipping and handling. Failure to respond to any required submission item results in non-compliance determination and elimination from consideration. An amendment posted September 16 extends the acceptance period by five calendar days; all previous quoters must sign and return the amendment form SF-30 or prior submissions will be excluded from final review.
