Evaluation factors/ Basis for Selection: The award shall be made to the lowest cost, technically acceptable offer from Authorized Serena Federal resellers only. Must quote on all items to be considered for award. Failure to submit any information as requested above may result in the offeror being removed from consideration for award. 8. Basis for Brand Name Requirement: This procurement is in support of DCPS which is migrating from TSO-PE to TSO-IN. In order to meet the timelines imposed by a BRAC migration, no changes are being made to the current system, and PVCS Version Manager supports the application as it currently runs. Licenses currently being used at TSO-PE can not be transferred as they are supporting the production system. TSO-PE has used PVCS Version Manager for many years to support DCPS. While there are other products that provide similar functions, the time spent to convert to another tool would require many system changes and require training in order to perform the conversion. Based on the historical investment of time and money for the PVCS product, it is in the best interest of the government to continue the use of this product as opposed to changing to another one. 9.

The following DFAS provisions are included in full text in this solicitation and will be included in any resulting Order. DFAS 52.223-9000, “ENVIRONMENTALLY PREFERABLE PRODUCTS” (OCT 2007) The Environmentally Preferable Products clause is included in this contract to articulate the Government’s polices on Green Contracting. FAR 23.403 sets forth the Federal Government’s policy to acquire items composed of the highest percentage of recycled-content practical, in a cost effective manner while still obtaining other contracting goals. Recycled-content products are identified in the Environmental Protection Agency’s Comprehensive Procurement Guidelines (CPGs). The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) will be producing a similar list which designates Bio-based products. EPA guideline items (and USDA designated bio-based products, when designated) are seen as the minimum that should be considered when evaluating environmentally preferable materials. Other environmentally preferable materials and products not listed, but commonly used in industry outside of the Government, should also be considered. The recently issued Executive Order 13423 (January 24, 2007) requires federal agencies to use sustainable environmental practices, including acquisition of bio-based, environmentally preferable, energy-efficient, water-efficient, and recycled-content products. Moreover, it now requires that paper of at least 30 percent post-consumer fiber content must be acquired or used in Agency acquisitions of goods and services. § 1. Mandatory use of Paper and other products with recycled content. (a)All paper utilized in the performance of this contract must be of at least 30 percent post-consumer fiber content. (b)The contractor, by responding to this RFP/RFQ, affirmatively acknowledges that they will, to the maximum extent practicable, use sustainable environmental practices including acquisition of bio-based, environmentally preferable, energy-efficient, water-efficient, and recycled-content products in the performance of this contract that meet the recycled-content recommendations for EPA designated items, which are found at http://www.epa.gov/epaoswer/non-hw/procure/products.htm. In addition, by responding to this RFQ/RFP the contractor is certifying the deliverables required under this contract shall meet the recycled-content recommendations for EPA designated items. § 2 Notice of Green alternatives in Offeror's product/service. (a)When offering a product or service that contains Green components as that term is defined at http://www.epa.gov/epaoswer/non-hw/procure/products.htm, the contractor shall make the Contracting Officer aware of such facts in the submission of their quote. (b) The contractor, when appropriate, shall comply with FAR Clause 52.223-9 Estimate of Percentage of Recovered Material Content for EPA Designated Products. § 3 Affirmative Duty of Contractors to adhere to Green Contracting Policy. (a)Whenever practicable, the Contractor has an affirmative duty to examine its packaging to eliminate or reduce waste by volume, toxicity and/or weight and to utilize or substitute recyclable material for non-recyclable material in packaging. (b) Whenever practicable, the Contractor has an affirmative duty to find other materials utilized in the delivery of services under this contract and examine whether it can reduce waste by volume, toxicity and/or weight and to utilize or substitute recyclable materials for non-recyclable materials of items consumed in the furnishing of their services.
