Attachment 2 - RFQ Information Sheet Attachment 1 - Schedule of Prices This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6, Streamlined Procedures for Evaluation and Solicitation for Commercial Items, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; Firm Fixed-Priced quotations are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. The solicitation number is NAMA-14-Q-0063 and is issued as a Request for Quotation (RFQ). The solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2005-73 effective April 29, 2014. This is an unrestricted acquisition, issued in accordance with FAR Subpart 13.5, Test Program for Certain Commercial Items. The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) intends to issue a contract(s) with firm fixed-priced contract line items (CLINs). EVALUATION: This is an unrestricted procurement, subject to Full and Open Competition. The Government reserves the right to issue multiple contracts, as well as, award on the initial quote without discussions of this procurement. Evaluation and award will be in accordance with the procedures of FAR 13.5 in conjunction with Subpart 13.106 Soliciting Competition, Evaluation of Quotations or Offers, Award and Documentation and in accordance with the guidance at FAR 12.301(c)(2). A contract will be issued to the Contractor(s) whose conforming quotation in response to the RFQ will be most advantageous to the Government. Best value for this procurement will be obtained through a lowest price technically acceptable evaluation. For evaluation purposes, the firm-fixed price for each CLIN will be determined by multiplying the Unit Price by the Quantity of units, and the total fixed price will be determined by summing the firm-fixed price of all CLINs. Contractors must provide pricing for each CLIN, including any Option CLINs. BACKGROUND: The purpose of this procurement is to purchase printers and installation, programming, testing, and training for the Research Room at the National Archives at College Park. REQUIREMENTS: See Attachment 1, Schedule of Prices. Contractors must submit their pricing (USD) in accordance with RFQ Attachment 1, Schedule of Prices.
