FOB Point Destination DPAS DO-C9 Quotation Submission Information (a) Submission: Quotations shall be submitted electronically via email to the Point(s) of Contact by the Response Date/Time identified in the General Information Section above. A confirmation of receipt will be provided, but it is the sole responsibility of the offeror to ensure that its response is received in its entirety and in a timely manner. (b) Quote Requirements: Offerors shall provide a quote with their proposed products and pricing, along with product literature for the items being quoted so that compliance with the specifications can be evaluated. The quote shall also include: Description of standard commercial warranty and any extended warranty (if not described in the Offerors standard terms and conditions). If shipping is not priced as a separate line item, a statement that shipping is included in the overall price of the items. (c) Company Information: The Offeror shall ensure the following information is submitted: Company Name Address CAGE / DUNS Number Web Page URL Company point of contract, phone # and email (e) System for Award Management (SAM): Offerors must be registered in SAM (www.sam.gov) in order be considered for award.

If the Offeror has not completed the annual representations and certifications electronically in SAM, the Offeror shall complete only paragraphs (c) through (v) of this provision. Evaluation and Basis for Award (a) Award will result from the technically acceptable quote with the lowest evaluated price (Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA)). A Offeror must receive a rating of Low Risk or Neutral for past performance in order to be considered for award. The Government reserves the right to award with limited exchanges to clarify certain aspects of quotes; however, the Government anticipates making award without discussions. The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotes: Technical Acceptability: Acceptable: Quote meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation Not Acceptable: Quote does not meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation Supplier’s Past Performance IAW DFARS 252.213-7000, the contracting officer shall consider data available in the statistical reporting module of the Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS) regarding the supplier’s past performance history for the PSC and/or NAICS of the supplies being purchased. Ratings: Low Risk: SPRS Supplier Risk Score of Blue, Purple, or Green, indicating a higher score in SPRS and are therefore, considered to have a lower risk of poor contract performance High Risk: SPRS Supplier Risk Score of Yellow or Red, indicating a lower score in SPRS and are therefore, considered to have a higher risk of poor contract performance Neutral: In the case of a supplier without a record of relevant past performance history in SPRS for the NAICS or PSC of the supplies being purchased, the supplier may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably for its past performance history. Price Reasonableness The Government anticipates making a determination of fair and reasonable price based on competitive quotes. If only one response is received, the Government may use other methods as described at 13.106-3(a)(2).
