NOTICE TO OFFERORS

This is a competitive commercial acquisition. The Government intends to award a single blanket purchase agreement resulting from this RFQ to the responsive, responsible, lowest price technically acceptable offeror whose quote conforms to the RFQ and will be most advantageous to the Government. This notice does not obligate the government to award a BPA, nor does it obligate the government to pay for any quotation preparation costs.

For the quote to be considered the Offeror will prepare & submit a proposal on the attached price sheet. Please fill out all requested information, partial quotes will not be considered. Only firm fixed price offers will be evaluated. Award will be made (all or none) to one vendor.

To be eligible to receive an award resulting from this solicitation, contractors must be registered in the DoD System for Award Management (SAM) located at the following website: https://www.sam.gov.

Lack of registration will make an offeror ineligible for award.

Payment for this Blanket Purchase Agreement will be made by Government Purchase Card.

This notice does not obligate the Government to award the blanket purchase agreement; it does not restrict the Government's ultimate approach; nor does it obligate the Government to pay for any quote/proposal preparation costs.

A Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) is a simplified method of filling anticipated repetitive needs for supplies or services by establishing “charge accounts” with qualified sources.

It is the Government’s intention to make payment via the Government Purchase Card (GPC)-VISA. Establishment of a BPA with the Government is not a guarantee of any calls being placed, however, it is not the Government’s policy to set up a BPA if it does not intend to use it.
