The contract establishes a standing price quote for a one-year period, not to exceed specified limits, for a single National Stock Number within the 5120 Federal Supply Class, which is part of the GSA Stock Program. The award will be made based on offers submitted in response to a forthcoming formal solicitation. All deliveries must be made FOB destination and the procurement is subject to several specialized clauses including those related to procurement restrictions on hand or measuring tools, bar coding, source inspection, and non-manufactured wood packaging materials compliant with European Union standards. Quantities are estimated based on historical usage data from the past three years. Evaluation of offers will prioritize past performance and delivery records combined, which carry significantly more weight than price alone. The contract specifies that the government will select the most advantageous offer considering these criteria. For further inquiries, the designated contract specialist is Katherine A. Solon, who can be contacted via phone or email, and quotations must be faxed to the provided number.
