From the notice

This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial products prepared in accordance with FAR Part 12, as revised by the Revolutionary Federal Acquisition Regulation Overhaul (RFO), and applicable Defense FAR Supplement (DFARS) class deviations. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation. Quotations are requested, and a separate written solicitation will not be issued. Solicitation PANERD-27-P-0000-028101 is issued as a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for brand-name WaterLinked Sonar Systems and Doppler Velocity Logs (DVL). This acquisition is a 100% small business set-aside. Only eligible small business concerns under the assigned NAICS code and size standard will be considered for award. The Government intends to issue one firm-fixed-price purchase order for the complete requirement. See the attachment for additional details.

Excerpt from the agency's notice. Read the full text and attachments on SAM.gov.

What you'll need to bid

  • A quote or proposal form. Usually the SF-1449 (or SF-18 for small quotes), filled in and signed, with a price for every line and option year.
  • Active SAM.gov registration. Free from the government, and it must be active before award. It can take a few weeks, so start early (how to register).
  • Acknowledgment of every amendment (SF-30). Missing one is the most common reason a good offer gets thrown out.
  • Prices that respect the wage rules. Many federal service contracts include a Service Contract Act wage determination setting minimum pay and benefits for each job category. Price your labor from it.
  • Past performance and a short technical write-up, if the notice asks for them (no past performance yet?).
  • A clear staffing and quality plan, if the notice evaluates technical approach: who does the work, how you'll cover absences, and how you'll check quality.

Always check the notice itself: the instructions in the solicitation win over any general rule.
