The Government intends to award to the responsive, responsible vendor whose quote is the lowest price and meets the requirements as stated in the Purchase Description for the items requested.� B. � �An award(s) will be made on the basis of low price including the evaluation for multiple awards. Multiple awards may be made if determined to be in the best interest of the Government. For evaluation purposes only, a fee of $500.00 per award will be applied during the evaluation � this fee is an administrative tool for evaluation purposes only and is not actually added into any quoted or contract costs. The purpose of adding an administrative fee for evaluation purposes is to determine if it is prudent for the Government to award multiple contracts. While vendors are NOT required to quote all line items of the solicitation, vendors are required to quote all line items within the listed specific groups as follows: (see �Pricing Sheet� for a comprehensive list with quantities and salient characteristics)� Group One: Item Numbers 001 and 002 Group Two: Item Numbers 003, 004, 009, and 021 Group Three: Item Numbers 005, 006, 015, 016, 017, 020, and 023 Group Four: Item Numbers 007, 008, 010, 011, 012, 013*, 014*, 018, 019, 022* *Item numbers with an * and in bold, are line items that are NOT Brand name Specific. For example: Interested Vendor A can quote everything, Groups One through Four, while interested Vendor B may only be able to provide quotes in Group 2 only; therefore, vendor B, elects to quote on the Group 2 only, and interested Vendor C may not be able to provide Group four, but can provide all other items and elects to quote Group 1,2,& 3 only. These are all acceptable ways to submit quotes.� C. � Substitutes for items are allowed for CLINs 013, 014, and 022 but must be of equal or greater quality.

All other CLINS shall be brandname specific with no substitutions. D. � �In order to be considered for an award, vendors shall have an active registration in the System for Award Management at https://sam.gov.
