OF THE SOLICITATION, SELECT
‘OTHER EQUIVALENT' AND PROVIDE DETAILS OF CURRENT DEALER/DISTRIBUTOR
CERTIFICATION AND/OR ACCREDITATION.
Fast Pay does not apply to this solicitation
QUALIFIED PRODUCTS LIST ITEM IN ACCORDANCE WITH FAR 52.209-1. CITE MFG.
CAGE, SOURCE CAGE, ITEM NAME, SERVICE IDENTIFICATION AND TEST NUMBER.
Due to the volatility of demands, and frequent quantity changes on open
purchase requests, offerors are highly encouraged to submit quantity
ranges when quoting. If a PR is evaluated manually, quoting ranges
provides the buyer the option to combine requirements or reduce the
quantity as needed without resoliciting or adding any additional
administrative burden for either party involved when making an award.
This does not apply to Auto IDC.
If you anticipate quoting on a solicitation after the closing date,
please submit a DIBBS quote with a bid type of “No Bid” and place an
anticipated quote date or the reason you are not willing to quote. This
does not prevent you from submitting an actual quote on DIBBS at a later
date. It will overlay your previous no quote. This informs buyers of
your intention to quote and prevents multiple calls for updates and
cancelling of requirements assumed to be non-procurable due to no
quotes/sources. The submission of an anticipated quote date does not
preclude DLA from making an award to another acceptable timely offer.
