Description

ADDENDUM II -- REPLACEMENT OF PRICE SCHEDULE AND STATEMENT OF WORK CLARIFICATION This Combined Synopsis/Solicitation is being modified to replace the Price Schedule and clarify the Statement of Work. The original price schedule in Addendum I is based on an estimated number of store locations provided during the year. A better alternative is a price schedule based on the number of deliverables (reports run) for this project. A new price schedule is added in Addendum II based on the number of reports run to replace the original price schedule. Combined Synopsis/Solicitation (i) This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotations are being requested and a separate written request for quotation will not be issued. This combined synopsis/solicitation will result in firm fixed-price line items in an indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity type contract with a base and _4_ option years, unless extended or terminated. (ii) The reference number is __AG-6395-S-10-0163__ and the solicitation is issued as a request for quote (RFQ). (iii) The provisions and clauses incorporated into this solicitation document are those in effect at the time of publication. Provisions and clauses incorporated by reference have the same force and effect as if they were given in full text. The full text of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and Agriculture Federal Acquisition Regulations supplement (AGARs) can be accessed on the Internet at http://www.acquisition.gov/far and http://www.usda.gov/procurement/policy/agar.html. (iv) It is anticipated that a single award will be awarded. This will be a full and open, unrestricted award. The associated NAICS code for this effort is __541910__ and small business size standard is _$7.0 million_ annual sales. (v) This requirement consists of __5__ contract line item numbers (CLINs) for services for base year and 4 option years: CLIN 1: _ retail store location data _ in accordance with the Statement of Work (SOW) listed in Addendum I; CLIN 2: _ retail store location data_ in accordance with the SOW; CLIN 3: _ retail store location data_ in accordance with the SOW; CLIN 4: _ retail store location data_ in accordance with the SOW; and CLIN 5: _ retail store location data_ in accordance with the SOW. (vi) The Note to Offeror/Price Schedule/Statement of Work is provided in Addendum I to this combined synopsis/solicitation. The vendor shall return a completed copy of the Note to Offeror requirements with its quotation. (vii) The Statement of Work for this requirement is provided in Addendum I to this combined synopsis/solicitation. (viii) Delivery and acceptance of deliverables will be FOB destination. (ix) The provision at 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors - Commercial, applies to this solicitation. (x) The provision at 52.212-2, Evaluation - Commercial Items, applies to this solicitation. The following text is added to Paragraph (a) of FAR 52.212-2: (i) technical capability of the item offered to meet the Government requirement; (ii) delivery time; (iii) price; and (iii) past performance. Technical capability, delivery time, and past performance, when combined, are equally important when compared to price. A competitive firm-fixed price, indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity award will be made to the responsible firm with the best value quote, trading off expected value against probable costs. The quote, at a minimum, must meet or exceed the acceptability standards for non-cost factors: technical capability based on the SOW, delivery time, and past performance.
