Offerors may propose a product in lieu of the brand named item, whereas the replacement product meets or exceeds the salient physical, functional, or performance characteristics of the brand name item. See attachment for salient characteristics of the labels and ribbons. Duration of any resultant contract is a base period of 1 year and two 1 year option periods for a total maximum of 3 years. Base period is from date of award through one year. Option periods if exercised will start the day after the previous period expires. Maximum total of time is 3 years. This requirement is 100% set aside for small business. NAICS code is 323119 and the size standard is 500 Employees The resulting contract and orders issued will be firm-fixed price. An Indefinite Quantity, Indefinite Delivery Contract will be issued from this RFQ. The Government minimum per Base or Option Period is $75,000.00 The maximum amount per Base or Option period is $800,000.00. The minimum per task order is $500.00. The maximum per task order issued is $200,000.00. Government anticipates an initial provisioning order during the base period to be shipped to all sites listed. After this initial shipment the Government will issue orders to replenish specific sites on an as needed basis. Shipping costs are to be included in the unit price. Required delivery Timeframes: 1. Within Continental US: 30 days after receipt of delivery order 2. Outside Continental US: 45 days after receipt of delivery order Expedited Delivery (lines 0004, 0005, 1004, 1005, 2004, 2005) These lines are used when the Government requires expedited delivery for items in the contract. Lines 0004, 1004 and 2004 are for sites within the continental US (CONUS) on a per site basis and lines 0005, 1005 and 2005 are for Outside CONUS sites on a per site basis. Normal delivery timeframes are 30 days CONUS and 45 days OCONUS. Expedited delivery timeframes are 10 days CONUS and 30 days OCONUS. If an order is expedited all delivery sites listed on that order are expedited and an expedite line would need to be ordered for each site listed Example: If two sites were on an order for CONUS that needed to be expedited during the Base Period, then 2 EA of Line 0004 would be ordered and the delivery timeframe would be 10 days after receipt of order for that order. Pricing for the expedited lines should reflect the additional costs of delivering the items to the site within the expedited period. Regular shipping costs for normal delivery timeframes should already be included in the unit price of items 0001, 1001, 2001, 0002, 1002, 2002, 0003, 1003, 2003. Government will award this requirement to the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable offer. The Government's objective is to obtain technically acceptable barcode ribbons and labels from an offeror who is experienced in providing these products worldwide to multiple delivery locations Ship to address: 120 locations worldwide.

(3) Acceptable evidence to establish the time of receipt at the Government installation includes the time/date stamp of that installation on the offer wrapper, other documentary evidence of receipt maintained by the installation, or oral testimony or statements of Government personnel. (4) If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal Government processes so that offers cannot be received at the Government office designated for receipt of offers by the exact time specified in the solicitation, and urgent Government requirements preclude amendment of the solicitation or other notice of an extension of the closing date, the time specified for receipt of offers will be deemed to be extended to the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day on which normal Government processes resume.
