The Government will not pay for costs associated with the preparation of a quote in response to this combined synopsis/solicitation. Payment will be made through the Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) application in accordance with DFARS clause 252.232-7006, Wide Area Workflow Payment Instructions. Interested vendors agree to hold the prices in its quote firm for 45 calendar days from the date specified for the closing of this RFQ. The contracting officer intends to award without discussions and may determine to open discussion if it is in the best interest of the Government. NG AGENCY PROTEST PROGRAM PIM 2022-02, section VIII: NG Agency Protest Program is intended to encourage interested parties to seek resolution of their concerns with the National Guard (NG) as an Alternative Dispute Resolution forum, rather than filing a protest with the Government Accountability Office (GAO) or another external forum.� Contract award or performance is suspended during the protest to the same extent, and within the same time periods as if filed at the GAO. The NG protest decision goal is to resolve protests within 35 calendar days from filing. An agency protest may be filed with either the Contracting Officer or the NG Agency�s Protest Decision Authority, but not both, in accordance with NG protest procedures.� To be timely, the protests must be filed with the periods specified in FAR 33.103. To file a protest under the NG Agency Protest Program, the protest must request resolution under that program and be sent to the address below:� National Guard Bureau� Office of the Director of Acquisitions/ Head of Contracting Activity� ATTN: NGB-AQ-O� 111 S.

BASIS FOR AWARD: The government intends to award to the responsive, responsible vendor whose quote is the lowest priced and meets the requirements as stated in the PWS for services requested. Award(s) will be made based on low price, including the evaluation for multiple awards. Multiple awards may be made if determined to be in the best interest of the Government. For evaluation purposes only, a fee of $500.00 per award will be applied during the evaluation � this fee is an administrative tool for evaluation purposes only and is not actually added into any quoted or contract costs. The purpose of adding an administrative fee for evaluation purposes is to determine if it is prudent for the Government to award multiple contracts.

Group 2: Childcare Services (CLIN0006) �***For example: Interested Vendor A can quote on both Groups 1 & 2, while interested Vendor B may not be able to provide childcare in Group 2; therefore, elects to quote on the event requirements (Group 1 only), and interested Vendor C may not be able to provide event services, but can provide childcare and elects to quote Group 2 only.� These are all acceptable ways to submitting quotes.� However, Vendor A and B may not quote lodging without quoting catering, audio/visual, event space and parking. *** To be considered for award, vendors shall have an active registration in the System for Award Management at https://sam.gov. Vendors are responsible to ensure the representations, and certifications in their SAM registration are accurate and current. ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION: Contracting Officer: David A.
