The chassis and controller may be identified separately or together depending on whether or not the controller can be universally accepted in another manufacturer?s chassis. Correspondence submitted shall state whether or not the controller is universally accepted in another manufacturer?s chassis. The chassis and controller may be also identified separately or together depending on whether or not the chassis universally accepts another manufacturer?s controller. Correspondence submitted shall state whether or not the chassis universally accepts anot! her manufacturer?s controller. All responses shall include the following information: a technical description of the items being offered in sufficient detail to evaluate compliance with the minimum requirements listed above: this may include product literature, data sheets, and/or other documents, if necessary; information to include recent and relevant contracts/orders for the same or similar items and references (including point of contact information), and business size status. Offerors are encouraged to submit responses on all available products that meet or exceed the minimum requirements stated above (or can be slightly modified to meet or exceed the minimum requirements). An important consideration in determining how the Government will proceed with requests for quotations from vendors identified as a result of this sources sought synopsis is whether or not items are competitive in terms of market prices. Therefore, all correspondence submitted in response to thi! s sources sought synopsis shall also identify the estimated price for each item submitted for consideration. Required delivery for all items identified in Items 0001 through 0004 is no later than 1 June 2005. Earlier deliveries are acceptable and encouraged, therefore responses shall also state typical delivery timeframe for each item submitted for consideration.
