Therefore, the vendor's initial quote should contain the vendor's best terms from a price and technical standpoint (see "Evaluation" below). (h) Multiple awards. The Government may accept any item or group of items of a quote, unless the vendor qualifies the quote by specific limitations. Unless otherwise provided in the Schedule, quotes may not be submitted for quantities less than those specified. The Government reserves the right to make an award on any item for a quantity less than the quantity quoted, at the unit prices quoted, unless the vendor specifies otherwise in the quote. (i) Reserved. (j) Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) Number. Applies to all quotations exceeding $3,000, and quotations of $3,000 or less if the solicitation requires the Contractor to be registered in the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database. The vendor shall enter, in the block with its name and address on the cover page of its quotation, the annotation "DUNS" or "DUNS +4" followed by the DUNS or DUNS +4 number that identifies the vendor's name and address. The DUNS +4 is the DUNS number plus a 4-character suffix that may be assigned at the discretion of the vendor to establish additional CCR records for identifying alternative Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) accounts (see FAR Subpart 32.11) for the same concern. If the vendor does not have a DUNS number, it should contact Dun & Bradstreet directly to obtain one. An vendor within the United States may contact Dun & Bradstreet by calling 1-866-705-5711 or via the internet at: http://fedgov.dnb.com/webform. Any vendor located outside the United States must contact the local Dun and Bradstreet office for a DUNS number.

Unless the vendor is exempted in accordance FAR 4.1102, by submission of an quotation, the vendor acknowledges the requirement that a prospective awardee shall be registered in the CCR database prior to award, during performance and through final payment of any contract resulting from this solicitation. If the vendor does not become registered in the CCR database in the time prescribed by the Contracting Officer, the Contracting Officer will proceed to award to the next otherwise successful registered vendor. Vendors may obtain information on registration and annual confirmation requirements via the Internet at http://www.ccr.gov or by calling 1-888-227-2423 or 269-961-5757. (End of Provision) In accordance with FAR 12.602(a) and FAR 13.106-2, the following is provided: EVALUATION (a) The Government intends to award a purchase order resulting from this Request for Quotation (RFQ) to the vendor whose quotation conforms to the solicitation and is considered most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotations: (i) technical capability of the item offered to meet the Government requirement (ii) price Basis for award: The award will be made to the vendor whose quotation represents the best value to the government. As allowed by FAR 13.106-2(b)(1), the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) selection process shall be applied. Award will be made to the vendor who is deemed responsible and responsive, and represents the best value to the Government based on selection of the technically acceptable quotation with the lowest evaluated price. The best value is represented by the lowest priced technically acceptable quotation. To be eligible for award, a quotation must meet all technical requirements, conform to all required terms and conditions, and provide all information required. The technical area will be evaluated on an "acceptable" or "unacceptable" basis. Only those quotations determined to be technically acceptable will be evaluated on price. If the quotation received is determined to be unacceptable, the vendor will be excluded from competition and will not be considered for award. (b) A purchase order, mailed or otherwise furnished to the vendor shall result in a binding contract upon receipt of written acknowledgement by the vendor or commencement of performance. ________________________________________________________________________ NOTE: In accordance with FAR 13.004, the following information regarding quotations is provided: Legal Effect of Quotations A quotation is not an offer and, consequently, cannot be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract. Therefore, issuance by the Government of an order in response to a supplier's quotation does not establish a contract. The order is an offer by the Government to the supplier to buy certain supplies or services upon specified terms and conditions. A contract is established when the supplier accepts the offer. When appropriate, the contracting officer may ask the supplier to indicate acceptance of an order by notification to the Government, preferably in writing. In other circumstances, the supplier may indicate acceptance by furnishing the supplies or services ordered or by proceeding with the work to the point where substantial performance has occurred. If the Government issues an order resulting from a quotation, the Government may (by written notice to the supplier, at any time before acceptance occurs) withdraw, amend, or cancel its offer. Specifications Auto-dispensing parts machine that needs to be able to hold at least 1000 storage bins that are enclosed inside of the machine (see below for storage bin sizes). The machine will need to be able to keep an accurate account of how many items are in each bin. The machine needs to be at least 62"W x 62"D x 84"H. Power supply shall be at least 220v not to exceed 240v and use a standard UK wall socket plug.
