If the Contracting Officer does not conduct a reverse auction, award may be made on initial offers or following discussions. If the Contracting Officer decides to use line reverse auctioning to conduct price negotiations, the Contracting Officer will notify Offerors of this decision and the following applies: (1) The contracting officer may use reverse auction as the pricing technique during discussions to receive the final offered prices from each offeror. (2) During each round of reverse auction, the system displays the lowest offer price(s) unless the auction instructions are different. All offerors and authorized auction users see the displayed lowest price(s). This disclosure is anonymous and a generic identifier displays for the offeror. Generic identifiers include designators such as �offer A� or �lowest-priced offeror.� By submitting a proposal in response to the solicitation, offerors agree to participate in the reverse auction and that their prices may be disclosed, including to other offerors, during the reverse auction. (3) An offeror�s final auction price at the close of the reverse auction is considered its final price proposal revision. No price revisions will be accepted after the close of the reverse auction, unless the contracting officer decides that further discussions are needed and final price proposal revisions are again requested in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 15.307, or the contracting officer determines that it would be in the best interest of the Government to re-open the auction. (4) The contracting officer identifies participants to the DLA commercial reverse auction service provider. To be eligible for award and participate, the offeror must agree with terms and conditions of the entire solicitation and the commercial reverse auction service. The reverse auction pricing tool system administrator sends auction information in an email. The reverse auction system designates offers as ""lead,"" meaning the current low price in that auction, or ""not lead,"" meaning not the current low price in that auction. In the event of a tie offer, the reverse auction provider's system designates the first offer of that price as ""lead"" and the second or subsequent offer of that price as ""not lead."" If a tie offer is submitted and no evaluation factors other than price were identified in the solicitation or a low-price technically acceptable source selection is being used, the ""Not Lead� offeror that submitted the tie offer must offer a changed price; otherwise its offer will be ineligible for award. If evaluation factors in addition to price were listed in the solicitation and a tradeoff source selection is being used, tie offers that are ""Not Lead"" will be considered and evaluated. (5) Offerors unable to enter pricing through the commercial reverse auction service provider�s system during a reverse auction must notify the contracting officer or designated representative immediately. The contracting officer may, at their sole discretion, extend or re-open the reverse auction if the reason for the offeror�s inability to enter pricing is determined to be without fault on the part of the offeror and outside the offeror�s control. (6) Training. The commercial reverse auction service provider or government representative conducts training for offerors. Offerors receive training through written material, the commercial reverse auction service provider�s website, or other means. Trainers name employees successfully completing the training as a �Trained Offeror.� Only trained offerors may engage in a reverse auction. The contracting officer reserves the right to remove the �trained offeror� title from anyone who fails to obey the solicitation or commercial reverse auction service provider terms and conditions. ***** INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS: Questions on this solicitations must be submitted to jonathan.tew@dla.mil by April 20, 2021 at 2 P.M. Eastern Time. Submit quotes by email to jonathan.tew@dla.mil no later than May 5, 2021, at 2:00 P.M. Eastern Time (which required 11:00 am Pacific Time due to FBO requirements). �Attention should be noted to FAR 52.212-1(f), concerning late submissions. �The offeror bears the risk of non- receipt of any email transmissions, and should ensure that all pages of the quote have been received by the designated office before the deadline indicated.� Email submissions by 5:00 pm one business day prior to the due date and time are encouraged to reduce the possibility of server or other cyber-related delays that may render your response as ineligible for consideration. Quotes are to include: � The bid schedule is attached and responding firms are required to complete and return the bid schedule for all line items, all periods.� 2)�� Complete listing of CLIN 0001 and 0002 specifications for each offered equipment item, fully demonstrating that each meets the required specifications. 3) Offerors shall provide the applicable CAGE code and DUNS number with their bid submission. The information located in FAR 52.212-3 (Offerors Representations and Certifications) must be current on SAM.gov at the time of quote submission. EVALUATION: Quotations will be evaluated on a Lowest-Priced Technically-Acceptable basis.� Award will be made to the responsible firm that offers the lowest total cost to the Government for the entire requirement after a pass/fail evaluation of the contractors� provided technical submittals. An offer will not be technically acceptable unless it is determined to be technically acceptable for all the items required to be include in the technical proposal. The Government will evaluate the technical proposal to ensure the contractor can meet all the requirements of the work statement. If a proposal contains a deficiency for any criteria, it will not be considered technically acceptable. A deficiency is defined as a material failure of a proposal to meet a Government required or a combination of significant weaknesses in a proposal that increase the risk of unsuccessful contract performance to an unacceptable level. The award will be made on the basis of lowest priced technically acceptable offer.
