In order to minimize the risk of the Government purchasing counterfeit products or unauthorized secondary market equipment, which would not be supported by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), and in order to ensure that the Government purchases only equipment that is genuine (i.e., not counterfeit), authorized (e.g., including appropriate licenses), and supported (e.g., warranty and support services) by the OEM, Vendor shall certify that it is an authorized reseller as of the date of the submission of their offer, and that it has the certification/specialization level required by the Manufacturer to support both the product sale and product pricing, in accordance with the applicable Manufacturer certification/specialization requirements. Unless otherwise specified, Vendor shall warrant that the products are new and in their original box.

Technical evaluation will be based on the Offeror's certification that it is an authorized reseller and that it has the certification/ specialization level required by the manufacturer to support both the product sale and product pricing, in accordance with the applicable manufacturer certification/ specialization requirements. Past Performance will be verified by checking the Offeror's information on Government past performance websites (i.e. CPARS, PPIRS) and by checking the Offeror's status on the Excluded Parties List System (EPLS).

Offerors will be given the opportunity to respond to any negative past performance information received.

The Government reserves the right to cancel this procurement/ solicitation either before or after the solicitation closing date, with no obligation to the offeror by the Government. The Government will issue a contract to the responsible, responsive quoter, with acceptable past performance, submitting the lowest price.
