In order to minimize the risk of the Government purchasing counterfeit products or unauthorized secondary market equipment, which would not be supported by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), and in order to ensure that the Government purchases only equipment that is genuine (i.e., not counterfeit), authorized (e.g., including appropriate licenses), and supported (e.g., warranty and support services) by the OEM, Vendor shall certify that it is a Manufacturer Authorized Channel Partner with either Premier, Silver or Gold status as of the date of the submission of their offer, and that it has the certification/specialization level required by the Manufacturer to support both the product sale and product pricing, in accordance with the applicable Manufacturer certification/specialization requirements. Unless otherwise specified, Vendor shall warrant that the products are new and in their original box. The Vendor confirms to have sourced all Manufacturer products submitted in this offer from Manufacturer or through Manufacturer Authorized Channels only, in accordance with Manufacturer's applicable policies in effect at the time of purchase. The Government will only consider proposals from manufacturer's authorized resellers/partners. FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation - Commercial Items (JAN 1999) applies with the following insertion at paragraph (a): Technical and Price; with award being made to the lowest priced responsible, responsive quote meeting the requirements of this combined synopsis/solicitation. Technical evaluation will be based on the vendor's quote meeting the requirement of the solicitation and on the Offeror's certification that it is a Manufacturer Authorized Partner and that it has the certification/specialization level required by the manufacturer to support both the product sale and product pricing, in accordance with the applicable manufacturer certification/ specialization requirements. It is the responsibility of all interested offerors to review this site frequently for any updates/ amendments that may occur during the solicitation process. The posting of this requirement does not obligate the Government to award a contract nor does it obligate the Government to pay for any proposal preparation costs. The Government reserves the right to cancel this procurement/ solicitation either before or after the solicitation closing date, with no obligation to the offeror by the Government. The Government will issue a contract to the responsible, responsive offeror, with acceptable past performance, submitting the lowest price. All prospective contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management in order to be eligible for contract award. For registration, go to www.sam.gov and follow the instructions. ENTERPRISE-WIDE CONTRACTOR MANPOWER REPORTING APPLICATION (eCMRA) REPORTING The contractor shall ensure ALL contractor labor hours (including subcontractor labor hours) required for the performance of services provided under this contract are reported via a secure data collection site. The contractor (and all subcontractors providing direct labor under this contract) shall report complete and accurate data for the labor executed during the period of performance during each Government fiscal year (FY), which runs from October 1 to September 30. The Contractor shall input the data into the appropriate eCMRA reporting tool, which can be accessed via a secure web site at http://www.ecmra.mil/. There are four separate eCMRA tools: Army, Air Force, Navy and All Other Defense Components. The appropriate eCMRA reporting tool to use is determined by the requiring activity being supported (e.g., if DISA awards a contract for an Air Force requiring activity, the contractor shall load the required reporting data in the "Department of Air Force CMRA" tool). While inputs may be reported any time during the FY, all data shall be reported no later than October 31 of each calendar year. The contractor shall completely fill in all required data fields. The contractor shall enter initial data into the appropriate eCMRA tool to establish the basic contract record no later than 15 working days after receipt of contract award or contract modification incorporating this clause. The contractor shall notify the COR when the basic contract record has been established in the appropriate eCMRA tool. eCMRA User Manuals and Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) are available at http://www.ecmra.mil/ Contractors may direct technical questions to the eCMRA help desk at dodcmra@pentagon.af.mil FAR 52.217-8 Option to Extend Services (Nov 1999) The Government may require continued performance of any services within the limits and at the rates specified in the contract. These rates may be adjusted only as a result of revisions to prevailing labor rates provided by the Secretary of Labor. The option provision may be exercised more than once, but the total extension of performance hereunder shall not exceed 6 months. The Contracting Officer may exercise the option by written notice to the Contractor within 30 CALENDAR DAYS before the contract expires. (End of Clause) FAR 52.217-9 Option to Extend the Term of the Contract (Mar 2000) (a) The Government may extend the term of this contract by written notice to the Contractor within 30 CALENDAR DAYS before the contract expires; provided that the Government gives the Contractor a preliminary written notice of its intent to extend at least 60 CALENDAR days before the contract expires. The preliminary notice does not commit the Government to an extension. (b) If the Government exercises this option, the extended contract shall be considered to include this option clause.
