Prior sales data must be recent and sufficient to determine fair and reasonable prices. Information submitted by the offeror of recent purchase prices paid by the Government and commercial customers for the same or similar commercial items under comparable terms and conditions if the prices previously paid are a valid reference for comparison.

The subcontract shall be incorporated by reference and made a part of the final award. The subcontract will be used to ensure offeror is on track to meet the goals established in the base contract.Additional ConsiderationsContainers - The Government did not provide separate Subcontract Line Item Numbers (SLINs) to accommodate items that may require reusable shipping containers. However, if an item requires a reusable shipping container, a SLIN may be added to allow the offeror to price the item with a shipping container. The offeror shall propose the most expeditious delivery schedule for each item.Economic Order Quantities (EOQs) shall be proposed by the contractor to ensure optimal ordering quantities. The EOQ information requested in this narrative, is being solicited to avoid acquisitions in disadvantageous quantities and to assist the Government in developing data for current and future acquisitions of this item/these items. The Government anticipates the offeror’s proposal (in view of market research, historical awards, the nature of the item(s) being solicited, and the current economic environment) will include quantities/ranges that will vary from those being solicited. The solicited quantities are based on estimated annual demands and as such Government reserves the right to award the most advantageous quantities &/or ranges.Evaluation Criteria - Minimum technical requirements. To be technically acceptable and thus, eligible for award, a proposal must conform to ALL solicitation requirements, such as terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements provided within all sections of this solicitation and/or within its attached addenda. Proposals receiving a technical rating of “Unacceptable” will be ineligible for award.Price. In addition to meeting the solicitation’s technical and quantity increment or range requirements above and cost and pricing requirements below, the Government will evaluate a proposal’s pricing for reasonableness. Evaluation of a proposal's pricing will not obligate the Government to order the estimated quantities or to distribute orders in the manner evaluated. The Government may reject a proposal as “Unacceptable” if its pricing is determined to be materially unbalanced.Cost and Pricing Data. Offerors must provide all cost or pricing information required by FAR 15.4. Failure of a proposal to provide cost or pricing information required by FAR 15.4 will result in said proposal being deemed Unacceptable, and thus, ineligible for award.PDQR - The Product Quality Deficiency Report Program (Army Regulation 702-7) will be used when contractors: 1) deliver deficient items or 2) receive deficient items from a DoD supply chain in support of Army requirements. When requested, the Contractor shall assist the cognizant Contract Administration Office in evaluating PQDRs and exhibits for defects reported on items manufactured under this contract to determine the root cause for deficiencies. Corrective action and Preventative Action to preclude recurrence of discrepancies shall be an integral part of the Contractor’s Quality Program. These defects may be reported from any DoD activity that discovers a defective item.Ranges - Offerors are requested for increments or ranges of quantities as listed in the attachment. The awarded quantity, or quantities in the case of multiple items, will be based on the requirements of the Government and the combination of price and quantity per item that is the most advantageous to the Government. Quantity increments shall consist of a primary amount and alternate amounts based on incremental increases. The quantity awarded will be either the full primary, or one of the alternate quantities. Quantity ranges consist of a specific series of ranges. The quantity awarded may fall anywhere within range. If this is a request for quote (RFQ) or a request for proposal (RFP), an offer that only contains prices for quantities other than those quantities indicated in the schedule of supplies or services may be precluded from consideration for award if the contracting officer elects to make an award without discussion of proposals.The contract quantity range shall be determined by the total quantity at the time of delivery awarded. There shall be no downward adjustment to an already awarded delivery order regardless of if another delivery order is awarded in the same ordering period. For example, one delivery order quantity may not be combined with any other delivery order quantity to create a price break, even if the new delivery order is placed in the same ordering period. Each order stands on its own. In the event an order is issued for quantities outside the ranges established in the contract, the unit price associated with the highest list range will apply to that order. The contractor has the right to accept or reject any quantity outside the ranges established in the contract and adjust the production lead time / monthly delivery rate as appropriate.Export Control – Arms Export control is applicable. The technical data package contains technical data whose export is restricted by the Arm Export Control Act (Title 22 U.S.C., SEC 2751 ET SEQ.) or Executive Order 12470. Violation of these export laws are subject to severe criminal penalties. Export Control requires the applicable certifications to be current for both the quoter and manufacturer. The offeror and any source(s) of supply it will use for contract performance must have an active United States/Canada Joint Certification Program (JCP) certification to access export-controlled data. DLA does not intend to delay award in order for an ineligible offer or its source(s) supply to apply for and receive authority approval to access the export-controlled data.Packaging – Standard practice for military packaging shall be utilized (MIL-STD-2073-1).Delivery Schedule – Proposal shall include proposed production lead time and monthly delivery rate.Proposal Submission – Proposal shall be electronically submitted to Government.
