GPAT to be completed and returned Attachment 1- Schedule of Prices to be completed and returned Attachment 3 - RFQ Information Sheet to be completed and returned This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6, Streamlined Procedures for Evaluation and Solicitation for Commercial Items, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; Firm Fixed-Priced quotations are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. The solicitation number is NAMA-NW-11-Q-0028 and is issued as a Request for Quotation (RFQ). The solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2005-53 effective August 4, 2011. This is an unrestricted acquisition, issued in accordance with FAR Subpart 13.5, Test Program for Certain Commercial Items. The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) intends to issue a purchase order(s) with firm fixed-priced contract line items (CLINs). EVALUATION: This is an unrestricted procurement, subject to Full and Open Competition. The Government reserves the right to issue multiple purchase orders, as well as award on the initial quote without discussions of this procurement. Evaluation and award will be in accordance with the procedures of FAR 13.5 in conjunction with Subpart 13.106 Soliciting Competition, Evaluation of Quotations or Offers, Award and Documentation and in accordance with the guidance at FAR 12.301(c)(2). A purchase order will be issued to the Contractor(s) whose conforming quotation in response to the RFQ will be most advantageous to the Government. Best value for this procurement will be obtained through a lowest price technically acceptable evaluation. For evaluation purposes, the firm-fixed price for each CLIN will be determined by multiplying the Unit Price by the Quantity of units, and the total fixed price will be determined by summing the firm-fixed price of all CLINs. Contractors must provide pricing for each CLIN, including any Option CLINs. The Government will only accept commercial-off-the-shelf items. Section 508 Evaluation Factors- Responses to this solicitation will only be considered for receipt of the purchase order(s) after it has been determined that the quotation adequately addresses the requirements for Section 508. Only quotations which contain adequate information to document their responsiveness to the Section 508 requirements (e.g. a completed Government Product/Service Accessibility Template (GPAT), VPAT or equivalent and supporting documentation) will be eligible for any additional merit consideration. If the deliverable proposed in response to this solicitation includes features and functions in addition to those identified as requirements, these features and functions also need to conform to relevant Section 508 technical provisions, functional performance criteria, and information, documentation and support. The accessibility of these additional features and functions should be described in the completed GPAT. In order to facilitate a comprehensive Government evaluation, contractors quoting "Or Equal" products are required to submit itemized technical specifications for CLIN 0001 that address each enumerated requirement of Attachment 2, Specifications. BACKGROUND: The purpose of this procurement is to purchase videoconferencing equipment for the Education and Public Programs Division (LE) of the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). Acquiring the videoconferencing equipment will allow LE to expand the outreach capabilities of their education program and provide program sharing, training, and support staff meetings with other NARA sites like the Presidential Libraries and regional facilities. REQUIREMENTS: F.O.B. Destination pricing is requested for each CLIN, all delivery costs must be included in total firm fixed price. See Attachment 1, Schedule of Prices. Contractors must submit their pricing (USD) in accordance with RFQ Attachment 1, Schedule of Prices. See Attachment 2, Specifications for specifications. DELIVERY: Packaging must be in a manner that prevents damage to the equipment during shipment. Delivery must be undertaken during regular business hours, Monday through Friday, unless mutually agreed upon by NARA and the Contractor. AFFIRMATION STATEMENTS: Contractors must confirm in their quote that all products quoted for CLIN 0001 meet the Energy Star® or Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP) energy use requirements. All items quoted for CLIN 0001 must be IPv6 compliant. Section 508 Program Need - Requirements for accessibility based on Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (29 U.S.C. 794d) are determined to be relevant for the following program need: Videoconferencing equipment with associated software, monitors, microphones, and camera. Section 508 Product Requirements -Functional performance criteria from 36 CFR part 1194 Subpart C have been determined to apply to this acquisition. Solicitation respondents must describe how their proposed Electronic and Information Technology (EIT) deliverables meet at least those functional performance criteria identified as applicable in the attached Government Product/Service Accessibility Template (GPAT). Information, documentation, and support requirements from 36 CFR part 1194 Subpart D have been determined to apply to this acquisition. Solicitation respondents must describe how the information, documentation, and support proposed for Videoconferencing equipment with associated software, monitors, microphones, and camera deliverables meet at least those information, documentation, and support requirements identified as applicable in the attached GPAT. Section 508 Acceptance Criteria - Supplies or services delivered as a result of this solicitation will be accepted based in part on satisfaction of identified Section 508 requirements for accessibility. If the deliverable includes features and functions in addition to those identified as requirements, these features and functions also need to conform to relevant Section 508 technical provisions, functional performance criteria, and information, documentation and support. Section 508 Contractors must complete and return RFQ Attachment 3, RFQ Information Sheet. It is the Contractor's responsibility to ensure that NARA is not provided either counterfeit or grey market products. In the event that such IT products are determined to be counterfeit or grey market, NARA will seek all available legal remedies including criminal prosecution. Counterfeit information technology product means any item of information technology (IT), including hardware and software that is an unauthorized copy, replica, or substitute. A grey market item is an item that is original equipment manufacturer (OEM); however, the manufacturer did not intend for it to be sold in the USA. As a result manufacturers will not honor associated warranties and service agreements. Unless you, the Contractor, are authorized by the manufacturer to resell the particular items you are quoting in the USA, it is in your best interest as well as the Government's that you simply do not respond. NARA will verify with the manufacturers immediately upon order issuance that the Contractor is an authorized reseller for this buy. Any issues with the information provided by the manufacturer to the Government about the grey market status of the items must be addressed by the Contractor to the manufacturer. The Government will immediately cancel any order based on a quotation of grey market items. In an effort to further ensure NARA is receiving new, manufacturer approved OEM items and will receive the benefits of any warranties or other manufacturer guarantees, NARA requires contractors to submit with their quote proof in writing from the OEM manufacturer of their status as an authorized/certified OEM Contractor of the manufactured items. Contractors must complete and return Attachment 3, RFQ Information Sheet, and the Government Product/Service Accessibility Template (GPAT), in order for their quotations to be considered. QUESTIONS: Questions regarding this RFQ must be submitted in writing to Ms. Cynthia Jones no later than 12:00 PM EST on September 1, 2011. Questions submitted in any other manner will not be answered. The Government will answer questions or requests for clarification via a written RFQ amendment. SUBMISSION OF QUOTATIONS: Three (3) copies of each quotation should be mailed to National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), Attention: Ms. Cynthia Jones (NAMA-NW-11-Q-0028), 8601 Adelphi Road, Room 3400, College Park, MD 20740-6001 or e-mailed to: cynthia.jones@nara.gov. Quotations should be received by 12:00 PM EST on September 12, 2011. Failure to submit quotations by the due date may result in rejection of the quotation as untimely.
