(ix) FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation -- Commercial Items (Oct 2014) this provision has been tailored to this procurement and is provided in full-text below: (a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: (i) Technical capability of the item offered to meet the Government requirement Minimum Qualifications: The bristle replacement sections shall be no more than 33 inches in length and all sections shall be of the same length. They shall be made of a molded reinforced plastic designed to eliminate and guarantee against distortion of the cassette section. There shall be a polyurethane formed (molded) cup, which extends up the length of the tuft no less than three inches for support. This formed cup shall have vertical risers of the same material to hold the upper rings of polyurethane in place and strengthen the cup. The cups shall be molded in a way that every four cups are interconnected from the base to the top of each cup by the same polyurethane material that the cups are made of. The distance between the center of each cup shall be a maximum of 41.5 mm. Each tuft shall consist of 140 pieces of zinc coated steel wires with a quality grade of "C". The wires shall be electro-galvanized, hard drawn crimped steel and exhibit a high fracture resistance, bent in a "U" shape and held in place "in the cup" by a 1/8 inch diameter steel rod that runs the full length of each cassette section. Each cassette section shall contain 20 tufts of.045mm wires as described above. The bristles shall be suitable for use in temperatures seen at the altitude of the airport (sea level) and be guaranteed for a period of one year and one full use of the bristles down to the maximum wear. The length of each tuft shall be 11 inches from the top of the cassette strip to the tip of the wire bristles. These replacement cassettes shall be guaranteed to fit in the SIB core properly and have the OEM approval to not void the warranty on the core, which is five (5) years from the date the runway broom was placed in service. They shall also be guaranteed to not void the sweeper manufacturer's warranty, as any damage to the core may cause damage to the drive system and frame work of the sweeper. The cassettes shall be designed to eliminate any possibility of the bent wire tufts from distorting the cassettes during storage that could be up to two years. The supplier shall guarantee that this distortion will not occur. Each set shall consist of the proper amount of cassette sections to fill the entire core. The reinforcement between the cups adds rigidity to all four of the cups / tufts which will reduce the bending movement while sweeping and give a better flicking action. The distance between the tufts is important for better sweeping action at full angle and most important when the broom head is at less than full angle. Specifications for SIB Cassette Cores for Use on Any Broom The cores used on this broom shall be of the cassette style. The design shall allow easy replacement of worn bristles and replacement with new. The core shall be primarily manufactured from aluminum to reduce weight, yet have the strength necessary to perform as needed under normal conditions. The core shall have plastic wear inserts inside each track to eliminate any wear to the body (structure) of the core itself. These plastic wear inserts shall be easily replaceable-snap in design. The core (s) shall be dynamically balanced and designed to eliminate bouncing and vibration. The design of the core shall be such that the tip to tip bristle diameter will be approx. 46 inch +/- ½ inch. There shall be 20 rows of bristles equally spaced. The cores shall be warranted for a period of five (5) years from date of in-service. The cores shall be a proven design with a minimum of 10 cores in use for a period of no less than five (5) years with a minimum of 2000 hours of use on at least six (6) units. (ii) Price (b) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer's specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award. (x) Each vendors shall ensure the provision at FAR 52.212-3 including its Alternate I, Vendors Representations and Certifications--Commercial Items (Mar 2015), are updated at www.sam.gov. Failure to obtain SAM registration will result in submissions not being considered for award. (xi) The clause at FAR 52.212-4, Contract Terms and Conditions - Commercial Items (Dec 2014), is hereby incorporated by reference, with the same force and effect as if it were given in full text. (xii) The clause at FAR 52.212-5, Contract Terms and Conditions Required To Implement Statutes Or Executive Orders - Commercial Items (Mar 2015), is hereby incorporated by reference, with the same force and effect as if it were given in full text.
