Begin Regulation SCP-FSS-001 Instructions Applicable to All Offerors (Dec 2021) (a) Read the entire solicitation document prior to preparing your offer. The Government will consider award for a responsible offeror whose offer conforms to all solicitation requirements, is determined technically acceptable and whose prices are determined fair and reasonable. The Government reserves the right to award or reject without discussions. Therefore, the offeror's initial proposal should contain the best terms from a price and technical standpoint. (b) Electronic submission of offers via GSA's coffer web -based at)plication is mandatory. Offerors must use FAS ID Multi -Factor Authentication (MFA) to access eOffer. Offerors should have at least two Authorized Negotiators who are "Authorized to Sign." While offerors may use consultants, one Authorized Negotiator must be an employee of the company. To obtain a FAS ID and enroll in the MFA process, please utilize the FAS ID User Guide. Offerors are advised to review the Offer Documents Submission Checklist posted on the MAS roadman site prior to submitting an offer. (c) Offers must be current, accurate, and complete, and demonstrate a thorough understanding of solicitation requirements. By submission of an offer: (1) The offeror attests that there have been no exceptions taken to the terms and conditions of this solicitation unless explicitly identified in eOffer (see "Exceptions to Terms and Conditions" under the Standard Response module) (2) The offeror attests that it understands and agrees to comply with the requirements of all clauses and provisions. Failure to comply with applicable clauses and provisions will result in rejection of the offer. Offerors are responsible for ensuring that their offers meet ALL solicitation requirements and should not assume that deficient items will be clarified prior to the offer being rejected. (3) The offeror attests that it understands and agrees to comply with the requirements of clause 552.238-80 Industrial Funding Fee and Sales Reporting OR clause 552.238-80 Industrial Funding Fee and Sales Reporting (Alternate I) if participating in Transactional Data Reporting (TDR) (see paragraph (g) below for more information on TDR). (d) If the offeror was previously awarded a Schedule contract that was cancelled or allowed to expire due to low or no sales, a new offer for the same Schedule will not be considered unless a minimum of 12 months have passed since the effective date of the cancellation or expiration date of the previous contract. Any offer submitted prior to the completion of this 12-month period will be rejected. (e) Existing Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) Program contractors can submit streamlined offers as annotated in this provision provided that the contractor meets ALL of the following criteria: (1) The contractor has an active FSS program contract under this Schedule and is submitting a new offer for the same Special Item Numbers (SINs). (2) Sales under the existing contract have averaged a minimum of $25,000 per year for the previous five years of reported sales. (3) There is a demonstrated pattern of satisfactory past performance under the existing contract. (f) A current FSS contractor can submit an offer for a new contract under this Schedule at any time during the existing contract's period of performance. Typically, the award of a new contract will result in the cancellation of the existing contract upon award. However, if the contractor has one or more active Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPAs) or orders under its existing contract; or has submitted quotes for either and is awaiting an award decision), it is eligible for the award of a new contract that is allowed to overlap and run alongside the existing one. This is referred to as holding continuous contracts. Page: 2 of 141
