The Government anticipates issuing a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) commercial contract for a twelve-month period to the successful offeror to provide flexibility in ordering and options for varying quantities. All future information relative to this procurement, including all documentation such as the Statement of Work and Attachments (file download MS Office), will be available to industry through the Business Opportunities link on the MARCORSYSCOM website: www.marcorsyscom.usmc.mil. Federal Acquisition Regulation 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors – Commercial Items: Offerors shall submit a combined technical/business proposal as an element of their offer. Offerors shall not submit more than one (1) offer in response to this solicitation. An original and three (3) copies of the offer are required. Offerors must submit Contractor Name, Address, DUNS, Cage Code and Tax Identification Number (TIN). Offerors may use product literature in their technical proposals; however, any ambiguities noted in the technical capability of the products may have an adverse impact on your evaluation. The proposal shall be specific, detailed, and comprehensive enough to enable technical personnel to make a thorough evaluation of its contents. The business portion of the offer shall ensure that all elements of the Schedule of Supplies, corresponding tables, and appropriate representations and certifications are completed. Offerors should read the terms and conditions of this solicitation carefully and refer any questions to the Procuring Contracting Officer (PCO). Proposals shall be prepared using “Arial” or “Times New Roman” 11-point font style on 8 ˝ X 11 inch white paper. Tables and illustrations may use a reduced font style, not less than 8 point. Foldouts are not allowed. All material submitted may be single-spaced. Offerors should ensure that each page provides identification of the submitting offeror in the header or footer. Page count for the combined technical/business proposal shall not exceed 25 total pages, inclusive of product literature, but exclusive of the Representations and Certifications of offerors. To supplement their written proposal, offerors may provide a CD-ROM with supporting information that illustrates the degree of compliance, quality, safety and reliability. There is no limitation for the content of the CD-ROM, however all material provided through this medium shall be appropriately referenced in the written proposal, the CD-ROM shall not be considered a stand-alone element of the offer. To support their business offer, offerors are requested to submit electronic pricing workups (e.g., Schedule of Supplies) in MS Office format on the CD-ROM. If conflicts arise between the material presented in the proposal and the CD-ROM, the precedence for consideration shall be with the written material. Sealed offers for the items to be provided shall be hand-carried or express mailed via UPS or Federal Express to the following location by 1:00 PM (EST) 10 September 2003; COMMANDER, Attn: Colonel Elizabeth Austin, CTQ 13-02EA, MARCORSYSCOM, 2200 Lester Street, Quantico, VA 22134-6050. NOTE: Offerors are advised that proposals sent by conventional U.S. Mail Service are not routed to the above address. Proposal Content: Describe your current ability and technical and management approach to meet the performance requirements stated in the Statement of Work (SOW) for the AT/FP Capability Sets. Ensure that your stated response addresses any specific commercial, or extended warranty provisions. Past Performance: Provide specific examples of favorable recent past performance that illustrates evidence of your ability to serve as an integrator (procuring, receiving, inspecting, storing, handling and delivering products). Ensure your past performance information includes names of technical and contracting officials, telephone numbers, addresses, e-mail, name of products purchased, quantities, dates of the resulting contract, contract value, contract number and a description of the items procured. FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation-Commercial Items applies. Award shall be made to the offeror whose proposal presents the best value to the Government, price and other factors considered. The evaluation factors for award are 1) Technical/Management Approach, 2) Past Performance and 3) Price. In making its “Best Value” determination, the Government will consider technical/management approach to be of significantly greater importance than past performance and price, which are of equal importance. However, the importance of past performance and price as factors in the final determination will increase with the degree of equality in the overall technical merits of the proposals. Price will be the total unit price of all Sub Line Item Numbers (SLINS) for Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINS) 0001 and 0002. A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party.
