This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotes are being requested, and a written solicitation will not be issued. This solicitation number is VA262-15-Q-0294, and is a Request for Quote (RFQ). The VA Loma Linda Healthcare System (VALLHS) Histology Unit has a requirement for histology equipment that includes a microtome, microtome foot pedal, paraffin wax dispenser, and slide printer/labeler. Equipment shall be new, and shall not be used, refurbished, recycled, or any other form, including substitutions. Specific requirements are listed on the attached Schedule of Supplies and Services and Statement of Work (SOW). Quoters should thoroughly review the Schedule of Supplies and Services and SOW, and be familiar with the requirements of the solicitation prior to submitting quotes in order to be fully aware of the scope of supplies and services required. Failure to do so will not relieve the successful quoter from performing in accordance with the strict intent and meaning of the specifications without additional cost to the Federal Government. The Government shall not reimburse any cost not incorporated into the quoter's price. Respond to the requirements of this RFQ by completing the blanks in the Schedule of Supplies and Services and by including a completed copy of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 52.212-3 Offeror Representations and Certifications-Commercial Items with quotes. Both are attached to this RFQ. Also, vendors shall include local stock numbers with quotes. Quotes and FAR 52.212-3 Offeror Representations and Certifications-Commercial Items shall be emailed to Susanne.Christen@va.gov.

For technical inquiries, please ensure that the subject line of all emails include "VA262-15-Q-0294." Telephone requests for information or questions will NOT be accepted. No hard copies of this RFQ will be provided. CLAUSES, PROVISIONS, AND ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS 1. This solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2005-60. 2. The following provisions and clauses apply to this acquisition: FAR parts 52.202-1, 52.211-6, 52.212-1, 52.212-2, 52.212-3, 52.212-4, 52.212-5, 52.232-1, 52.233-1, 52.233-3, 52.233-4, 52.246-2, 52.247-34, VAAR 852.203-70, 852.211-70, 852.232-72, 852.233-70, 852.233-71, 852.246-70, 852.246-71, and 852.273-74. Additional applicable clauses and provisions are attached. 3. Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) part 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors-Commercial and FAR part 52.212-4 apply to this acquisition and no addenda are attached. 5. FAR part 52.212-5 Contract Terms and Conditions Required To Implement Statutes Or Executive Orders-Commercial Items, applies to this acquisition. The clause is attached to this solicitation. 6. The procurement of these commercial supplies and/or services is in accordance with FAR part 12 Commercial Items, FAR part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures, and the VAAR, as supplemented with additional information in this notice. 7. BASIS FOR AWARD: Subject to the provisions contained herein, award shall be made to the quoter deemed responsible in accordance with the FAR and who conforms to the solicitation requirements; and whose quote, judged by an overall assessment of the quoter's qualifications specified in this solicitation, meets the technically acceptable standard for the non-price factors and provides the lowest evaluated price. Non-price factors are significantly more important than price. The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) intends to issue a firm fixed-price purchase order for commercial supplies and/or services. Any quotes submitted for any name brand items must be from authorized distributor(s), reseller(s), partner(s), or manufacturer(s) or quote will be rejected as nonresponsive. Delivery shall be f.o.b. destination. Quotes submitted on a basis other than f.o.b. destination will be rejected as nonresponsive. A written notice of award or acceptance of a quote, emailed or otherwise furnished to the successful quoter within the time for acceptance specified in the quote, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the quote's specified expiration time, the Government may accept a quote (or part of a quote), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
