The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). (c) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer's specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award. The following clauses apply to this acquisition: The clause at FAR 52.212-4, CONTRACT TERMS AND CONDITIONS--COMMERCIAL ITEMS applies to this acquisition and the following addenda, applies: MINIMUM/ MAXIMUM GUARANTEE Minimum Contract Guarantee: The resultant contract awarded from issuance of this solicitation and evaluation of offer assigns a minimum guarantee of $7,000.00 for the life of the contract.

QUANTITY UNIT OF ISSUE WRITTEN NOTICE OF AWARD 0001 1400 PAK 90 Days ARO 1001 1400 PAK 90 Days ARO 2001 1400 PAK 90 Days ARO The Government will evaluate equally, as regards time of delivery, offers that propose delivery of each quantity within the applicable delivery period specified above. Offers that propose delivery that will not clearly fall within the applicable required delivery period specified above, will be considered nonresponsive and rejected. The Government reserves the right to award under either the required delivery schedule or the proposed delivery schedule, when an offeror offers an earlier delivery schedule than required above. If the offeror proposes no other delivery schedule, the required delivery schedule above will apply. OFFEROR'S PROPOSED DELIVERY SCHEDULE WITHIN DAYS AFTER ESTIMATED DATE OF RECEIPT OF ITEM NO. QUANTITY UNIT OF ISSUE WRITTEN NOTICE OF AWARD 0001 1400 PAK ___________________________ 1001 1400 PAK ___________________________ 2001 1400 PAK ___________________________ (b) Attention is directed to the Contract Award provision of the solicitation that provides that a written award or acceptance of offer mailed, or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror, results in a binding contract. The Government will mail or otherwise furnish to the offeror an award or notice of award not later than the day award is dated. Therefore, the offeror should compute the time available for performance beginning with the actual date of award, rather than the date the written notice of award is received from the Contracting Officer through the ordinary mails. However, the Government will evaluate an offer that proposes delivery based on the Contractor's date of receipt of the contract or notice of award by adding (1) five calendar days for delivery of the award through the ordinary mails, or (2) one working day if the solicitation states that the contract or notice of award will be transmitted electronically. (The term "working day" excludes weekends and U.S. Federal holidays.) If, as so computed, the offered delivery date is later than the required delivery date, the offer will be considered nonresponsive and rejected.
