The Government will evaluate the total offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all line items. Evaluation of all line items will not obligate the Government to award all line items. The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with offerors. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The lowest price offeror will be evaluated first for technical acceptability. If determined to be technically unacceptable, the next lowest offeror will be evaluated, etc.

Proposals are due prior to 5:00PM ET, 23 January 2023. Late submissions will not be accepted.

Offers should be submitted via electronic commerce. The electronic address for receipt of offers is: nicole.m.eygnor.civ@us.navy.mil. Offerors should identify the RFQ number in the Subject Line of the email. Offerors are advised to submit electronic documents early and confirm successful transmission/receipt.

The System for Award Management (SAM) is a Government-maintained database of companies wanting to do business with the Government. A firm must register and be active in SAM to receive a Federal award. Register at: https://sam.gov/SAM/pages/public/index.jsf.

The Government reserves the right to award one line, all line items or any combination thereof. If multiple line items are awarded, costs/prices for each line item will be totaled and award amount will be based on that total.

Award will be made to the responsible offeror whose offer, conforming to the solicitation is determined to be the lowest priced, technically acceptable.
