Addendum to FAR 52.212-1 Instructions to Offerors - Commercial Items As prescribed in FAR 12.302(d) the following addendum is provided for solicitation provision FAR 52.212-1 and hereby amends any language therein: Quotation Preparation Instructions: A. To be considered for award, note that you or your company must be CCR registered and subsequently enrolled in WAWF for purpose of invoice/payment if awarded the contract. B. To assure the timely and equitable evaluation of quotations, vendors must follow the instructions contained herein. Vendors are required to meet all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements, in addition to those identified as evaluation factors and if applicable, sub-factors. Quotations submitted in response to this Combined Synopsis/Solicitation must address the following evaluation factors which include a price quote and technical qualifications as follows and defined in paragraph C - Quote Specifics. C. Quote Specifics: All quotes must include the following information: 1. Companies or individual's complete mailing and remittance address on company letterhead. 2. Discount for prompt payment - if any 3. Quotes shall be quoted in US Dollars ($) and shall be valid though 30 September 2011. 4.

Vendors must clearly identify any exception to the solicitation terms and conditions and provide complete accompanying rationale. (End Addendum) FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation - Commercial Items (Jan 1999) (a) Award Basis: The Government's evaluation of quotation will fully account for the evaluation factors identified and required under the Addendum to FAR 52.212-1. The evaluation of these factors will utilize the lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA) award basis. Quotes that do not meet the quote specifics will be deemed technically unacceptable, and therefore not considered for award. The Government intends to evaluate quotations and award a contract without exchanges or communications and therefore, quotations should contain the vendor's best terms. (b) Evaluation: Evaluation factors required under 52.212-1 will be evaluated by the Government as follows; i. Price: To evaluate price reasonableness, a comparison will be made amongst all received quotations and the Government's estimate. ii. Technical Qualification: A vendor's quotation will be considered technically acceptable if it meets the requirements detailed in paragraph C of the Addendum to FAR 52.121-1 above. Quotations that do not meet these requirements will be considered unacceptable and therefore, under the LPTA evaluation process will not be considered for award. (c) AWARD DETERMINATION: As a result of the Government's aforementioned evaluation, only those vendors, whose quotes are determined to be technically qualified, and therefore technically acceptable, will be considered for award. No trade-offs will be permitted between price, and the non-price factor of technical capability. Of those vendors found technically acceptable, an award determination will be made to the lowest priced vendor that is determined to be reasonable, realistic, and affordable. (End Provision) 52.212-3 - Offeror Representations and Certifications--Commercial Items (Alt III). As prescribed in 212.301(f)(ii), use the following provision: OFFEROR REPRESENTATIONS AND CERTIFICATIONS-COMMERCIAL ITEMS (JUN 2005) (a) Definitions. As used in this clause- (1) "Foreign person" means any person other than a United States person as defined in Section 16(2) of the Export Administration Act of 1979 (50 U.S.C. App. Sec. 2415). (2) "United States" means the 50 States, the District of Columbia, outlying areas, and the outer Continental Shelf as defined in 43 U.S.C. 1331. (3) "United States person" is defined in Section 16(2) of the Export Administration Act of 1979 and means any United States resident or national (other than an individual resident outside the United States and employed by other than a United States person), any domestic concern (including any permanent domestic establishment of any foreign concern), and any foreign subsidiary or affiliate (including any permanent foreign establishment) of any domestic concern which is controlled in fact by such domestic concern, as determined under regulations of the President. (b) Certification. By submitting this offer, the Offeror, if a foreign person, company or entity, certifies that it- (1) Does not comply with the Secondary Arab Boycott of Israel; and (2) Is not taking or knowingly agreeing to take any action, with respect to the Secondary Boycott of Israel by Arab countries, which 50 U.S.C. App. Sec. 2407(a) prohibits a United States person from taking. (c) Representation of Extent of Transportation by Sea. (This representation does not apply to solicitations for the direct purchase of ocean transportation services). (1) The Offeror shall indicate by checking the appropriate blank in paragraph (c)(2) of this provision whether transportation of supplies by sea is anticipated under the resultant contract. The term "supplies" is defined in the Transportation of Supplies by Sea clause of this solicitation. (2) Representation. The Offeror represents that it- ___________Does anticipate that supplies will be transported by sea in the performance of any contract or subcontract resulting from this solicitation. ___________Does not anticipate that supplies will be transported by sea in the performance of any contract or subcontract resulting from this solicitation. (3) Any contract resulting from this solicitation will include the Transportation of Supplies by Sea clause. If the Offeror represents that it will not use ocean transportation, the resulting contract will also include the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement clause at 252.247-7024, Notification of Transportation of Supplies by Sea. (End of provision) In accordance with FAR 13.004 -- Legal Effect of Quotations the following information is provided in regards to quotations. A quotation is not an offer and, consequently, cannot be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract. Therefore, issuance by the Government of an order in response to a supplier's quotation does not establish a contract. The order is an offer by the Government to the supplier to buy certain supplies or services upon specified terms and conditions. A contract is established when the supplier accepts the offer. When appropriate, the contracting officer may ask the supplier to indicate acceptance of an order by notification to the Government, preferably in writing. In other circumstances, the supplier may indicate acceptance by furnishing the supplies or services ordered or by proceeding with the work to the point where substantial performance has occurred. If the Government issues an order resulting from a quotation, the Government may (by written notice to the supplier, at any time before acceptance occurs) withdraw, amend, or cancel its offer. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact one of the following: Primary point of contact: Contract Specialist: Benjamin Shelton TEL: 01638-52-2185 or EM: benjamin.shelton@lakenheath.af.mil Secondary Point of contact: Contracting Officer: Christopher Davalos TEL: 01638-52-2252 or EM: christopher.davalos@lakenheath.af.mil Attachment(s): N/A
