(b) The Government will deliver government furnished property to the Contractor's plant in accordance with FAR 52.247-55, F.O.B. Point for Delivery of Government-Furnished Property. Offerors must indicate in the space below the name and address of the plant where the property will be utilized. In the absence of so indicating, the Government will assume and evaluate offers on the assumption that the property will be utilized at the plant specified by offerors in their offers under the heading “Production Facilities,” or Block 15A of SF33.
Offeror to complete:
Plant: _______________________________________________
Street Address: ________________________________________
City and State: ________________________________________
(c) In the evaluation of the offers, in response to this solicitation, among the factors to be considered in determining the low offeror will be the cost of transporting Government-furnished property to the contractor's plant. Land methods of transportation by regulated common carrier will be used to evaluate cost of transportation from the Government's place of shipment (cited below) to the offeror’s plant (paragraph b). This transportation cost will be added to the offered price to determine the overall cost to the Government; however, if the location from which the government furnished property will be shipped is not known at the time of issuance of the solicitation, the cost of transporting such property to the offeror’s plant will not be a factor in the evaluation of offers.
Government furnished materials will be shipped from: ____________________________________
Weight: _____________________________________
Cube: ______________________________________
(d) The delivery schedule contained in Section F is based on the assumption that delivery of Government-furnished property will be made to the contractor within 45 days, unless otherwise indicated, after date of award.
(e) Contractor's Receipt for GFP: Concurrently with each shipment of GFP, the Government will furnish the Contractor with shipping documents setting forth the exact quantity of property furnished. Within five days after receipt of GFP for performance under this contract, the Contractor shall acknowledge receipt on the Government shipping documents and return them to ___________________________________________________. The Government reserves the right to suspend further shipments of property until receipts for GFP have been properly prepared and received by the Government. Notwithstanding any other contract provision, delays by the Contractor caused by suspension of GFP shipments for failure to meet this provision shall not constitute an excusable delay within the meaning of the contract.
