This solicitation is being issued as 100% Small Business set-aside under full an open competition procedures. A waiver of the Non-Manufacturer rule has not been requested for this acquisition because it is an acquisition for multiple items. In accordance with 13 CFR 121.406(d)(1), if at least 50% of the estimated contract value of an acquisition for multiple items is composed of items that are manufactured by small business concerns, then a waiver of the Non-Manufacturer rule is not required.

All responsible sources may submit proposals that will be considered by DLA Troop Support. The Government will award a contract(s) resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror(s) whose offer(s) conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The source selection method for this procurement will be the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) source selection procedures and shall use the following to evaluate offers: 1. Technical Acceptability - A technically acceptable offer is an offer that takes no exceptions to the terms and conditions in the solicitation and complies fully with all submission requirements, including submissions relating to the two sub-factors listed below. Offerors will be required to provide a statement noting that they take no exceptions to the terms and conditions in the solicitation. A proposal that takes exception to solicitation terms and conditions or that fails to comply with all submission requirements may be deemed technically unacceptable and, thus, may be found ineligible, and removed from further consideration for the award. By submitting a proposal with no exceptions, an offeror is confirming it possesses the necessary facilities, equipment, technical skills and capacity to successfully provide all items required by this solicitation. The following sub-factors will be evaluated and must be found acceptable for a proposal to be eligible for award: A. Perishable Agricultural Commodities Act (PACA) License The offeror shall possess and submit proof of a valid current PACA license. B. USDA Harmonized Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) Plus + Standard Audit, with warehouse and food defense addenda and/or Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) audit - The Contracting Officer will require an offeror to submit a valid USDA Harmonized Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) Plus + Standard audit, including addenda for warehouse and food defense, and/or a Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) audit, or an independent third-party certifying company audit report(s) / certificate for each place of performance identified in the offeror's proposal. The audit report(s) must demonstrate a passing score in the following parts: General, Warehouse and Food Defense addenda. In lieu of a USDA Harmonized Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) Plus + Standard audit report / certificate, and/or a Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) audit, the offeror may submit an audit report / certificate conducted by a recognized private independent third-party certifying company certifying to an industry recognized food safety standard that exceeds all aspects of the USDA Harmonized Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) Plus + Standard audit report / certificate requirements or Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) audit. NOTE: Offerors relying on a non-USDA Harmonized Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) Plus + Standard audit report /certificate must agree to have a USDA Harmonized Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) Plus + Standard audit with warehouse and food defense addenda report /certificate and/or a Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) audit for each place of performance prior to the start of contract performance. 2. Pricing - Pricing is required for all items found in the Market Basket (for Group 1 (1a and 1b) and for Group 2 and for all tiers. Failure to offer pricing for all items and for all tiers may result in a proposal being removed from consideration for award as technically unacceptable. The Government will perform an aggregate price analysis on all items found in the Market Basket for Group 1(1a and 1b) and for Group 2. To determine an offeror's Evaluated Aggregate Price, the Weighted Aggregate Distribution Price will be added to the Aggregate Delivered Price for Group 1(1a and 1b) and for Group 2, respectively, to come to a preliminary Evaluated Aggregate Price for each sub-group. Then, the preliminary Evaluated Aggregate price for Group 1(1a and 1b), as well as Group 2, will be added together to determine the offeror's Evaluated Aggregate Price. Please refer to paragraph (A) below for further details regarding these price components. The award(s) will be made on the basis of the lowest Evaluated Aggregate Price for Group 1 (1a and 1b) and for Group 2 of proposals meeting or exceeding the acceptability standards for non-price factors. The Government reserves the right to remove item(s) from the Market Basket or do a common item comparison if offerors do not submit pricing for all items. Prior to award, the offered prices of the presumptive awardee(s) will be evaluated on an individual line-item basis to determine whether each price is fair and reasonable using analytical techniques deemed appropriate by the Contracting Officer in her/his complete discretion. A. Price Components: 1. Weighted Aggregate Distribution Price: Aggregate Distribution Price is obtained by first multiplying the proposed distribution price for each item in the Market Basket by the item s estimated quantity to calculate the total distribution price for each item. Then, the total distribution prices of all items will be added together to determine the total distribution price for tier 1. The total distribution price for each subsequent tier will also be calculated. The total distribution prices for all tiers will be added together to determine the Aggregate Distribution Price. The Aggregate Distribution Price is then multiplied by a weighting factor of 6 to arrive at the Weighted Aggregate Distribution Price. Note: the weighting factor is applied only to the overall Aggregate Distribution Price (not on a line item basis), and is to be used for evaluation purposes only. The Government's use of a weighting factor of 6 for distribution pricing is done in order to more accurately balance the significance of the pricing components and their respective impact on any subsequent contract(s) issued under this solicitation. 2. Aggregate Delivered Price: The Aggregate Delivered Price is obtained by first multiplying the proposed delivered price of each item in the Market Basket by the item s estimated quantity to calculate the total delivered price for each item. Then, the total delivered prices of all items will be added together to determine the total delivered price for tier 1. The total delivered price for each subsequent tier will also be calculated. The total delivered prices for all tiers will be added together to determine the Aggregate Delivered Price. 3. Evaluated Aggregate Price: The Evaluated Aggregate Price is obtained by…
