Further details will be provided in an attachment to the solicitation. UNICOR has contracted with FreeMarkets, Inc. (?FreeMarkets?) to conduct the auction for this solicitation. FreeMarkets refers to such an auction as a Competitive Bidding Event (?CBE?). For the sake of consistency and to avoid confusion, the solicitation will similarly refer to such an auction as a CBE. However, use of this phrase shall not be construed to imply that the solicitation is being conducted under the procedures set forth at FAR Part 14. Rather, the solicitation is being conducted under the procedures set forth at FAR Part 15. During the CBE, Offerors will provide pricing through the submission of electronic offers via software that will be provided by FreeMarkets. The primary pricing competition for the solicitation will be through the online reverse auction. FreeMarkets will explain this process in detail and train each qualified Offeror prior to the CBE. Offerors will have the ability to submit revised pricing during the CBE in response to prices submitted by other Offerors. The identity of Offerors will not be revealed to each other during the CBE. The final such revision during the CBE will be considered the Offeror?s final price proposal. The Contracting Officer reserves the right to conduct verbal or written discussions with respect to factors other than price with the Offerors at anytime prior to award. One original signed copy of the solicitation is to be completed and mailed to the attention of Joscie L.
