Late submissions, modifications, revisions, and withdrawals of quotations. (1) Offerors are responsible for submitting quotations, and any modifications, revisions, or withdrawals, so as to reach the Government office designated in the solicitation by the time specified in the solicitation. (2)(i) Any quotation, modification, revision, or withdrawal of an quotation received at the Government office designated in the solicitation after the exact time specified for receipt of quotations is "late" and will not be considered unless it is received before award is made, the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late quotation would not unduly delay the acquisition; and- (A) If it was transmitted through an electronic commerce method authorized by the solicitation, it was received at the initial point of entry to the Government infrastructure not later than 5:00 p.m. one working day prior to the date specified for receipt of quotations; or (B) There is acceptable evidence to establish that it was received at the Government installation designated for receipt of quotations and was under the Government's control prior to the time set for receipt of quotations; or (C) If this solicitation is a request for proposals, it was the only proposal received.

(3) Acceptable evidence to establish the time of receipt at the Government installation includes the time/date stamp of that installation on the quotation wrapper, other documentary evidence of receipt maintained by the installation, or oral testimony or statements of Government personnel. (4) If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal Government processes so that quotations cannot be received at the Government office designated for receipt of quotations by the exact time specified in the solicitation, and urgent Government requirements preclude amendment of the solicitation or other notice of an extension of the closing date, the time specified for receipt of quotations will be deemed to be extended to the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day on which normal Government processes resume. (5) Quotations may be withdrawn by written notice received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of quotations. Oral quotations in response to oral solicitations may be withdrawn orally. If the solicitation authorizes facsimile quotations, quotations may be withdrawn via facsimile received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of quotations, subject to the conditions specified in the solicitation concerning facsimile quotations. A quotation may be withdrawn in person by an Offeror or its authorized representative if, before the exact time set for receipt of quotations, the identity of the person requesting withdrawal is established and the person signs a receipt for the quotation. Purchase order award. The Government intends to evaluate quotations and award a purchase order without discussions with Offerors. Therefore, the Offeror's initial quotation should contain the Offeror's best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all quotations if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest quotation; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in quotations received. Multiple awards. The Government may accept any item or group of items of a quotation, unless the Offeror qualifies the quotation by specific limitations. Unless otherwise provided in the Schedule, quotations may not be submitted for quantities less than those specified.
