THIS SYNOPSIS REPLACES N00178-12-Q-3002 The Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD) intends to rent international cell phones and service to be used primarily in countries outside the contiguous United States (OCONUS) on an œas needed basis. These phones must also have the capability to be used inside the contiguous United States (CONUS). None of the phones will be purchased. IRIDIUM or satellite phones may be required occasionally. The Government shall advise the vendor of such requirements. All phones shall be non camera. International phones and services must be available for use in the following countries: Afghanistan, Australia, Bahrain, Canada, Chania, Crete, Columbia, France, Germany, Israel, Iraq, Italy, Japan, Korea, Kuwait, Norway, Philippines, Qatar, Sweden, United Kingdom, or other countries as requested. All rental phones must be marked clearly with complete phone numbers and include the following: travel charger and adapter to charge the phone in OCONUS countries; carrying case to hold the phone, battery, adapter and instructions; complete instruction booklet detailing proper procedures on dialing local and long distance calls; and company telephone number and point of contact for users to call in case problems may arise. Vendors interested in submitting quotations shall provide the following information for the international cell phones: cost of rental by time interval (i.e. daily, weekly, monthly, etc.), incoming call rates (CONUS), CONUS to CONUS call rates, OCONUS to CONUS call rates, and OCONUS to OCONUS call rates. For IRIDIUM international and satellite phones the quotation shall provide the following information: incoming call rates (CONUS), satellite to satellite call rates, and satellite to landline call rates. The government shall not be liable for any activation or setup fees. Quotations shall also address phone replacement costs, insurance rates (only if required), or any other charges related to phone rentals. Only vendors who can provide both international cell phones and IRIDIUM satellite phones and services will considered for award. It is recommended that the quotation be completed by using the attached MS Excel quotation format (Quotation Chart “ Attachment A). This requirement is set-aside for small business. Vendors shall furnish a prepared order form that NSWCDD will fax or e-mail to the company with each new or modified requirement. If more than one form is required, due to differing regulations in particular countries, the vendor shall furnish all of them as required. The form shall provide a return address for shipping rental phones back to the company. The form shall also contain a quoted rate schedule for applicable countries in which the phones will be used. The vendor shall ship rental phone(s) by Federal Express to arrive on the date required and include a return prepaid Federal Express form. The vendor must have the capability to provide overnight shipping service to locations designated by the authorized NSWCDD agent at no additional cost to the Government. The Government shall return phones to the vendor upon completion of the required travel using Federal Express shipping document provided by the vendor. The vendor shall submit invoices through the Department of Defense Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) system. In addition, the vendor shall submit a copy of the invoice accompanied by a breakdown of invoice charges to the Activity Telecommunications Office in the same manner as demonstrated in the attached spreadsheet (Invoice Breakdown sample “ Attachment B). The award shall be made based upon the Government ™s determination as to which vendor meets the minimum requirements as described above and provides the overall lowest costs to the Government based upon rental rates, usage rates, required geographic coverage, and related factors such as insurance and replacement costs. The Government reserves the right to cancel the order by giving the vendor thirty (30) days advanced written notice issued by the Contracting Officer at no additional charge to the Government. The award shall be a firm fixed price purchase order and shall be executed under Federal Simplified Acquisition Procedures (FAR Part 13). The NAICS Code associated with this procurement is 517911 and the FSC Code is 5805. THIS ANNOUNCEMENT CONSTITUTES THE ONLY REQUEST FOR QUOTATION AS ALL ITEMS ARE SPECIFIED UNDER THIS NOTICE AND A WRITTEN SOLICITATION WILL NOT BE ISSUED. The period of performance shall be for one (1) year after the date of issue of the purchase order. All responsible sources may submit a quotation which shall be considered by the agency. In order to be eligible for award firms must be registered in the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database. Vendors may obtain information on registration in the CCR on the internet at http://www.ccr.gov or by calling 1-888-227-2423. Please note that defense payment offices may not make payments unless the contractor is established to receive electronic funds transfer (EFT).
