- Description
- This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotes are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. The Washington Headquarter Services (WHS), Acquisition and Procurement Office, Department of Defense, 1155 Defense Pentagon, Washington, DC 20301-1155 intends to purchase the items listed in the attached product list on a brand name or equal basis for CLIN0001 through CLIN0007; and specific make and model basis for CLIN0008 through CLIN0013. If quoting for items other than the make and model specified, approval must be sought from David L. Price, Contracting Officer, at (703) 696-3970 or david.price@whs.mil. All items will be delivered (F.O.B. Destination) to: OSD/CIO Depot Sharon McCracken 621L North Payne St Arlington, VA 22314 Phone: 703-325-0237 within 30 calendar days after award. Quotations are due no later than 4:30 pm, Eastern Standard Time, Monday, 28 April 2008. Offers shall be submitted electronically via email to: james.kim@whs.mil. For additional information, contact James H. Kim, Contract Specialist, at (703) 696-4106 or james.kim@whs.mil Offerors shall include a completed copy of FAR provision 52.212-3 Offeror Representations and Certifications Commercial Items, and furnish Offeror's Tax Identification Number, CAGE Code, Central Contractor Registration Number, DUNS Number, and applicable FSC Codes with its offer apply to this acquisition. Offerors may also submit a completed annual representation and certifications via Online Representations and Certifications Application (ORCA) https://orca.bpn.gov. Brand Name Justification for CLIN 0008, 0009, 0010, 0011, 0012, and 0013: CLIN0008 : This switch is required by the Government in order to connect PC-laptops to KVM switches. Based on acquisition history, this brand, among other commercially-available brands, offers the only product that has provided consistent performance and reliability. CLIN0009 : Tandberg VTC units are required to maintain interoperability with existing Tandberg VTC units. Purchase of a product other than Tandberg VTC units will incur duplicate training and system support costs for the Government. Additionally, Tandberg is the only VTC system that is capable with the ISEC 323 switch that is deployed into OSD. This switch is DISA/NSA approved. CLIN0010/0011 : The Government requires a switch and compatible KVM cable evaluated by The National Information Assurance Partnership (NIAP) to meet EAL 4 Common Criteria Evaluation and Validation Scheme. The Avocent SwitchView SC8port KVM Switch is the only product in its category that meets the certification standard. CLIN0012 : The Government requires an Apple iMac for helpdesk support. Purchase of a different brand will not meet the Government’s requirement. CLIN0013 : The Government requires speakers that will attach to currently owned DELL1908FPW monitors in order to maximize functional work space. Purchase of a different model or brand will not be accepted. Additional Instructions for Offerors: CLIN0001 and CLIN0002 are compatible products. When quoting a product other than the referenced brand name items that meets the Government’s minimum technical specifications for CLIN0001, the offeror shall quote a compatible product for CLIN0002 that serves the same function as the brand name items referenced in the product list. CLIN0001, 0002, 0003, 0004, 0005, 0006, and 0007 will be evaluated in accordance with FAR 52.211-6. Brand Name or Equal (Aug 1999) (a) If an item in this solicitation is identified as “brand name or equal,” the purchase description reflects the characteristics and level of quality that will satisfy the Government’s needs. The salient physical, functional, or performance characteristics that “equal” products must meet are specified in the solicitation. (b) To be considered for award, offers of “equal” products, including “equal” products of the brand name manufacturer, must— (1) Meet the salient physical, functional, or performance characteristic specified in this solicitation; (2) Clearly identify the item by— (i) Brand name, if any; and (ii) Make or model number; (3) Include descriptive literature such as illustrations, drawings, or a clear reference to previously furnished descriptive data or information available to the Contracting Officer; and (4) Clearly describe any modifications the offeror plans to make in a product to make it conform to the solicitation requirements. Mark any descriptive material to clearly show the modifications. (c) The Contracting Officer will evaluate “equal” products on the basis of information furnished by the offeror or identified in the offer and reasonably available to the Contracting Officer. The Contracting Officer is not responsible for locating or obtaining any information not identified in the offer. (d) Unless the offeror clearly indicates in its offer that the product being offered is an “equal” product, the offeror shall provide the brand name product referenced in the solicitation. Offerors shall quote for all items in the attached product list. Quotes that do not contain all items will be considered unresponsive. The Government will evaluate quotes and make a selection based on the lowest priced technically acceptable quotation.
