Price Evaluation will consider pricing for all line items. Basis of Award Basis for award: A single firm-fixed price purchase order award will be made to the responsive and responsible vendor (IAW FAR 9.1), as supplemented, whose quotation meets or exceeds the acceptability standards for non-cost factors. The Government will select the quotation with the lowest evaluated price from among those meeting the acceptability standards for non-price factors, which reflects a complete understanding of the salient characteristics and is judged, based on the evaluation factors and subfactors, to represent the lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA) quotation. Best Value is represented by LPTA. To be eligible for award, a quotation must meet all technical requirements, conform to all required terms and conditions, and provide all information required. Only those quotations determined to be technically acceptable will be evaluated on price. If the quotation received is determined to be unacceptable, the vendor will be excluded from competition and will not be considered for award. If the quotation does not provide pricing for all items, the offeror will be considered nonresponsive, excluded from competition, and will not be considered for award. While the Government will strive for maximum objectivity, the source selection process, by its nature, is subjective; and therefore, professional judgment is implicit throughout the entire process. Quotations should contain the offeror's best terms on a price and technical-specification acceptability standpoint. * The Government reserves the right to cancel this solicitation, any time before contract award. All items are for U.S. Government use, and shall be marked accordingly. ** Any Open Market items MUST be annotated accordingly. ***Quotes shall be accepted, until the listed close date, either through the FedBizOpps automated system or through direct e-mail transmissions to the above listed e-mail address.

(h) Certification Regarding Responsibility Matters (Executive Order 12689). (Applies only if the contract value is expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold.) The offeror certifies, to the best of its knowledge and belief, that the offeror and/or any of its principals-- (1) [_] Are, [_] are not presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, or declared ineligible for the award of contracts by any Federal agency; (2) [_] Have, [_] have not, within a three-year period preceding this offer, been convicted of or had a civil judgment rendered against them for: commission of fraud or a criminal offense in connection with obtaining, attempting to obtain, or performing a Federal, state or local government contract or subcontract; violation of Federal or state antitrust statutes relating to the submission of offers; or commission of embezzlement, theft, forgery, bribery, falsification or destruction of records, making false statements, tax evasion, violating Federal criminal tax laws, or receiving stolen property; and (3) [_] Are, [_] are not presently indicted for, or otherwise criminally or civilly charged by a Government entity with, commission of any of these offenses enumerated in paragraph (h)(2) of this clause; and (4) [_] Have, [_] have not, within a three-year period preceding this offer, been notified of any delinquent Federal taxes in an amount that exceeds $3,000 for which the liability remains unsatisfied. (i) Taxes are considered delinquent if both of the following criteria apply: (A) The tax liability is finally determined. The liability is finally determined if it has been assessed. A liability is not finally determined if there is a pending administrative or judicial challenge. In the case of a judicial challenge to the liability, the liability is not finally determined until all judicial appeal rights have been exhausted. (B) The taxpayer is delinquent in making payment. A taxpayer is delinquent if the taxpayer has failed to pay the tax liability when full payment was due and required. A taxpayer is not delinquent in cases where enforced collection action is precluded. (ii) Examples. (A) The taxpayer has received a statutory notice of deficiency, under I.R.C. §6212, which entitles the taxpayer to seek Tax Court review of a proposed tax deficiency. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek Tax Court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appear rights. (B) The IRS has filed a notice of Federal tax lien with respect to an assessed tax liability, and the taxpayer has been issued a notice under I.R.C. §6320 entitling the taxpayer to request a hearing with the IRS Office of Appeals Contesting the lien filing, and to further appeal to the Tax Court if the IRS determines to sustain the lien filing. In the course of the hearing, the taxpayer is entitled to contest the underlying tax liability because the taxpayer has had no prior opportunity to contest the liability. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek tax court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights. (C) The taxpayer has entered into an installment agreement pursuant to I.R.C. §6159. The taxpayer is making timely payments and is in full compliance with the agreement terms. The taxpayer is not delinquent because the taxpayer is not currently required to make full payment. (D) The taxpayer has filed for bankruptcy protection. The taxpayer is not delinquent because enforced collection action is stayed under 11 U.S.C. §362 (the Bankruptcy Code). (i) Certification Regarding Knowledge of Child Labor for Listed End Products (Executive Order 13126). [The Contracting Officer must list in paragraph (i)(1) any end products being acquired under this solicitation that are included in the List of Products Requiring Contractor Certification as to Forced or Indentured Child Labor, unless excluded at 22.1503(b).] (1) Listed End Product Listed End Product: Listed Countries of Origin: (2) Certification.

The offeror [_] does [_] does not certify that- (i) The items of equipment to be serviced under this contract are used regularly for other than Governmental purposes and are sold or traded by the offeror (or subcontractor in the case of an exempt subcontract) in substantial quantities to the general public in the course of normal business operations; (ii) The services will be furnished at prices which are, or are based on, established catalog or market prices (see FAR 22.1003-4(c)(2)(ii)) for the maintenance, calibration, or repair of such equipment; and (iii) The compensation (wage and fringe benefits) plan for all service employees performing work under the contract will be the same as that used for these employees and equivalent employees servicing the same equipment of commercial customers.

(3) If paragraph (k)(1) or (k)(2) of this clause applies- (i) If the offeror does not certify to the conditions in paragraph (k)(1) or (k)(2) and the Contracting Officer did not attach a Service Contract Labor Standards wage determination to the solicitation, the offeror shall notify the Contracting Officer as soon as possible; and (ii) The Contracting Officer may not make an award to the offeror if the offeror fails to execute the certification in paragraph (k)(1) or (k)(2) of this clause or to contact the Contracting Officer as required in paragraph (k)(3)(i) of this clause. (l) Taxpayer identification number (TIN) (26 U.S.C. 6109, 31 U.S.C. 7701). (Not applicable if the offeror is required to provide this information to the SAM database to be eligible for award.)

In addition to the requirements identified in FAR 52.204-9 - Personal Identity Verification of Contractor Personnel and AFFARS 5352.242-9000 - Contractor access to Air Force installations, all contract employees require a positive NCIC background check prior to being granted access to Offutt AFB in accordance with the installation security policy. To expedite this requirement, the contractor shall complete NCIC Data Memo attached for every employee proposed to perform work under this contract requiring physical access to Offutt AFB. All completed forms will be forwarded to the sponsoring DoD Agency/Customer POC listed in of this clause no later than eight (8) business days prior to the contract start date. The sponsoring DoD Agency/Customer POC will forward a base access request containing the NCIC Data Memo information to the contractor base access ID Media issuing office below at: 55 SFS/S5P Bldg 478 Offutt AFB, NE 68113 Phone: (402) 294-7551 Email: 55SFS.EAL@us.af.mil A memorandum shall be prepared for each follow-on/replacement employee who is not provided with the initial group of employee data. Each shall be provided no later than 3 business days prior to the proposed individuals start date. 2. If an individual is denied a base pass/access to the installation, the contractor is not prohibited from hiring that individual for work on this contract; however, individuals denied access will also be denied access to Offutt's e-mail system. Employees who refuse to complete the form will be denied access to the installation. 3. All illegal aliens are considered unauthorized individuals and will be barred from the base. Illegal aliens attempting entry or found on the installation (if incorrectly issued a pass) will be processed as an unauthorized individual and removed from the installation. In addition to notifying the contractor of the illegal alien, the Offutt AFB Security Forces will notify AF Office of Special Investigations, local police and the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement office. Contractors are prohibited from hiring illegal aliens for work on a Government contract and the other Government agencies contacted upon discovery of the illegal may seek corrective and/or punitive actions pursuant to law against the hiring organization if violations occur. 4. Throughout contract performance, contractors are required to notify the CO or the COR by the next duty day if any of their employees or subcontract employees meet any of the disqualifiers identified below. Any reported disqualifiers will be forwarded to the Security Forces Squadron for appropriate action and deny the individual access to Offutt AFB.

Contractors are not authorized to bring guests or other contract employees onto the installation unless those individuals are personally in possession of a base pass or Government Identification card. F. MOTOR VEHICLE OPERATION ON BASE 1. Contractor personnel are advised that seat belt usage is mandatory at all times on Offutt AFB. Nebraska state law requires the use of restraints in a vehicle. Offutt AFB Instruction 31-204, 20 October 2010, Security, Motor Vehicle Traffic Supervision states that failing to utilize seat belts or other restraints while moving will result in the issuance of a 7-day driving suspension and the individual's traffic history on Offutt AFB being assessed points for the first offense. Repeated offenses on Offutt AFB will result in the loss of on-base driving privileges and could have an adverse effect on your ability to perform your contract. Air Force Instruction 31-204, Air Force Motor Traffic Supervision, prescribes that installation commanders must ensure drivers comply with state and local traffic laws both on and off base. Accordingly, while on Offutt AFB, operators and passengers must wear restraints and may be ticketed by Offutt security personnel for failure to comply. In addition, the following administrative penalties, as a minimum, will be imposed on drivers who are cited for speeding 10 mph - 15 mph over base housing posted speed limits: the first offense will result in the issuance of a 7-day driving suspension and the individual's traffic history being assessed points. Repeated offenses on Offutt AFB will result in the loss of on-base driving privileges and could have an adverse effect on your ability to perform your contract. 2. Contractor personnel are advised that vehicle operators on a DoD installation and operators of Government owned vehicles will not use cell phones unless the vehicle is safely parked or unless they are using a hands-free device. The wearing of any other portable headphones, earphones, or other listening devices (except for hands-free cellular phones) while operating a motor vehicle is prohibited (DoD Joint Motor Vehicle Traffic Supervision Regulation, paragraph 4-2). Using a cell phone while driving, without a hands-free device will be considered a "primary offense", meaning that violators are subject to being stopped and ticketed solely for this offense and the individual's traffic history on Offutt AFB being assessed points for the first offense. Repeated offenses on Offutt AFB will result in the loss of on-base driving privileges and could have an adverse effect on your ability to perform your contract. 3. Per directive from 55WG/CC dated 11 Sep 2013 and AFI 1-1, Air Force Standards, para. 1.7.4.5, inappropriate slogans, images, or ornamentation on personally owned vehicles or materials inside of a Privately Owned Vehicle (POV) within plain view to a passerby, are not tolerated on Offutt AFB.

Personnel may either remove the inappropriate materials or be required to cover them as a condition to allowing the POV on the installation. Personnel who deliberately or repeatedly violate this policy may be barred from driving a POV on the installation for an appropriate length of time. G.
