A total minimum guaranteed quantity of 3,000 empty case assemblies (which can be comprised of any combination of the three BLU-109 configurations) is anticipated to be divided on an 50%/50% basis with associated containers and pallets divided in the same manner; however, the Government will reserve the right to award only one contract for 100% of the total minimum guaranteed quantity if two contract awards are not determined to be in the best interest of the Government.Each contract will consist of five Ordering Periods to award FY20-FY24 requirements. If two IDIQ contract awards are made, future requirements will be competed between the IDIQ contract awardees following the fair opportunity process described in FAR 16.505(b)(1). Ordering procedures and selection criteria for Delivery Order competitions will be identified in the solicitation and contracts. Both contracts will allow for award of any empty case assembly configuration and shipping container. The Government will reserve the right to divide future requirements on any basis and combination as determined to be in the best interest of the Government, and will reserve the right to award future requirements to a single contractor if determined to be in the best interest of the Government considering price and other factors such as contractor performance and capacity. The total five year maximum quantities combined for all contracts awarded as a result of the RFP are as follows: BLU-109C/B: 31,500 ea; BLU-109/B: 2,500 ea; BLU-109A/B: 5,000 ea; CNU-417/E: 15,750 ea; and MHU-212B/E: 2,500 ea.
