As prescribed in 47.305-3(93) insert the following provision:
EVALUATION OF OFFERS FOR QUANTITY INCREMENTS (APR 2008) - DLAD
(a) Offers will be evaluated and awards made on an all-or-none basis by item and each Offeror may submit an offer for one or more items. However, an Offeror must submit a price for all quantity increments specified in the schedule for each item on which he wishes to submit an offer. If the Offeror desires to offer the same unit price for all quantity increments of an item, the Offeror may state that the same unit price applies to all quantity increments of that item instead of repeating the same unit price in all columns. If the Offeror does not desire to offer the same unit price for all quantity increments of an item, the Offeror must insert a unit price for each quantity increment for that item.
(b) Prices offered must be unit prices. Each unit price offered must represent the full and complete price for the described unit of supply, inclusive of preservation, packaging, packing, set up and such other processing as may be required by this solicitation. FAILURE TO OFFER UNIT PRICES ON ALL QUANTITY INCREMENTS OF AN ITEM IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS STATED ABOVE WILL RESULT IN THE REJECTION OF THE OFFER FOR THAT ITEM.
(c) The low offer for each item will be determined by the weighted average unit price calculated in accordance with the following formula:
(1) With respect to each quantity increment:
(i) Add to the unit price the freight cost per unit. For this purpose, the following shall apply:
(A) The freight rate used shall be based on the median of the quantity range specified for the increment (and upon the tentative destination specified for the item). Where an increment is expressed in terms which cannot be related to a quantity range with a fixed maximum quantity, then the quantity to be used shall be the lowest quantity specified. For example, if an increment were expressed in terms of "over 25,000" the quantity to be used would be 25,000.
(B) The term "Freight" shall include all evaluation factors relative to transportation.
(C) For evaluating offers and for no other purpose, the final destinations for the supplies will be the tentative destinations set forth in the schedule.
(D) [ ] If checked, F.O.B. Origin offers will be evaluated based on the following estimated shipping weight and cube;
Item No.
|
Weight Per Unit
|
Cube Per Unit
|
(Will be indicated in the solicitation)
(ii) Multiply the unit price as adjusted in subparagraph (c)(1)(i) above by the weighted value (i.e., number) assigned below to the quantity increment:
Item No.
|
Quantity Increment
|
Weighted Value Assigned
|
(2) Add the results obtained in subparagraph (c)(1)(ii) above for all of the quantity increments in the item and divide the total by ___________ (the total of the weighted values assigned).
(3) Additional evaluation factors, if any, required to be considered by this solicitation (reduced, however, where appropriate, to a per unit amount based on the estimated quantity) will be added to the amount obtained in subparagraph (c)(2) above.
(d) Award shall be made in accordance with the requirements of applicable law and regulations and at the increment prices offered, with the low Offeror determined in accordance with the above formula. The awarded unit price to be paid under a delivery order shall correspond to the unit price offered for that quantity increment of the item regardless of the number of destinations or stock numbers called for in the order.
(e) An offer which conditions the Government's right to award one item on the concurrent award of one or more other items shall not qualify for award unless each of the items subject to such an all-or-none condition is low when individually evaluated in accordance with paragraph (b) above.
The following paragraph (f) applies only if preceded by an “X” in the block provided in the solicitation:
[ ] (f) Except as may be otherwise provided in the set-aside notice, award under the set-aside shall be in the same increment prices per item awarded to the successful Offeror on the non-set-aside portion, adjusted, however, to reflect transportation, rent free use of Government property and other cost factors which were considered in evaluating offers on the non-set-aside portion. The set-aside award prices shall be subject to the same discount terms as the non-set- aside award prices.
