Washington Headquarters Service, A&PO on behalf of Defense Facilities Directorate is issuing an RFQ to solicit Rental Equipment for the purpose of entering into a Purchase Order. The offeror is required to submit a price Quote to Government officials for the purposes of assuring that the offeror is fully cognizant of the scope of this requirement and has the capability to complete all statement of work (SOW) requirements. All products must have salient characteristics to be considered responsive to this requirement. All questions and quotes must be submitted electronically to the attention of Janice C. Bennett at janice.bennett@whs.mil and Kristin S. Fuller at kristin.fuller@whs.mil. Questions must be received by 2:00 PM EST Wednesday, March 31, 2010. All offers must be received by 4:30 PM EST Friday, April 2, 2010. Any offer not submitted to both Ms. Bennett and Ms. Fuller will be deemed unresponsive and not considered for award (NO EXCEPTIONS) Quotes should be in a common electronic format such as Adobe Acrobat (pdf file), must be formatted to print on an 8.5 x 11 page, and must include the image of the signature used on the original document. It is incumbent upon the contractor to ensure the Quote was received (not sent) by the stated date and time. SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS PRICE QUOTE The price Quote shall be submitted separately as a total Firm Fixed Price. The Offeror must identify the method for calculating the proposed price including but not limited to: labor categories (if applicable), any discounts offered, and any additional assumptions. Significant discounts are considered highly desirable. Discounts offered must be explicit. (There is no page limit for this factor.) Any legible format is acceptable. Offerors are therefore reminded that they are to submit offers in response to this solicitation that will be binding should the Government select them for award without discussions, and to do so that they must include their best firm-fixed pricing on a fully complete and signed offer. Failure to do so may result in the Offeror being determined as non-responsive and not considered for award. ASSUMPTIONS, CONDITIONS, OR EXCEPTIONS The offeror must submit any assumptions, conditions, or exceptions with any of the terms and conditions of the RFQ and corresponding attachments. If not noted in this section of your offer, it will be assumed that the offeror proposes no assumptions for award, and agrees to comply with all of the terms and conditions as set forth herein. It is not the responsibility of the Government to seek out and identify assumptions, conditions, or exceptions included within the Offeror's Quote. Note that any assumptions, conditions, or exceptions made, may result in a determination that an Offeror is not technically acceptable, and may be excluded from competition.
