The contract term worth for the first two years is based on the last two year purchases. Please note usage stated on price sheets 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3 is for Federal brand 9 mm ammunition was purchased by the Washington State Patrol. They are now transitioning to 40 caliber weapons and it is anticipated that the 9 mm ammunition purchases will decrease and the 40 caliber ammunition purchases will increase. WSP still use 9 mm weapons and will continue to purchase some of the ammunition as needed.

Price Sheets Sections 8.1 through 8.5 may be awarded to one or more bidder(s) by line item(s), or section(s), whichever is in the best interest of the State. Consideration may also be given to all other contractual requirements stated herein. Each line will be multiplied by the price per round and extended out. The Extended Price for each line item will be summed. The bidder is required to provide the Rounds per Box and Price per Box, but they are for information purposes only, and not are considered part of the evaluation.

Award will be made to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder(s). The State Procurement Officer reserves the right to award by line item, group of line items or aggregate line items or sections. The State Procurement Officer reserves the right not to award one or more line items or group of line items, if deemed in the best interest of the State.

Price Sheet Sections 8.6 through 8.10

A pilot program may be created to help the State develop future specifications.

Price Sheet Sections 8.6 through 8.10 does not have estimated usage. For the first two years, ammunition may be purchased through a Pilot Program. It is anticipated that these sections could be awarded to those bidders who offer pricing lower, equal to or no more than 10% higher overall than the pricing for Price Sheet Sections 8.1 through 8.5. (The manufacturers/brands listed in Price Sheet Sections 8.1 through 8.5 can not be bid for this section). The line items will be summed and the bidder(s) who has the lowest total for all line items in that section may be awarded that section. Bidder is required to also provide the Rounds per Box and the Price per Box for informational purposes. Please note that consideration may also be given to all other contractual requirements stated herein. The State Procurement Officer reserves the right to award by line item, group of line items or aggregate line items or sections. The State Procurement Officer reserves the right not to award one or more line items, group of line items or establish a Pilot Program, if deemed in the best interest of the State.

The State does not have information as to whether state agencies or other users of the contract purchase these line items listed in price sheet sections 8.6 through 8.10. In the event a Pilot Program is established, the State Procurement Officer will provide a specialized usage form by line item to be tracked by the successful bidder(s). This information will be required to be submitted quarterly.

The Washington State Patrol has agreed to compile ballistic testing for those products listed in price sheet sections 8.6 through 8.10 that are equal to the Federal brand products that are listed on the next page. WSP may also test other ammunition on these price sheets, but are unable to identify them at this time. During the 18th month of the Pilot Program, the State Procurement Officer will work with the WSP to review their Ballistic Testing information for the manufacturers currently in the Pilot Program to see if they are equal to the standard of quality of brands which the state agencies currently use. At the end of the 24 month pilot program, the State Procurement Officer may make modifications to the contract, bid sections of the contract or rebid the contract entirely.

The Washington State Patrol has identified the total percentage amount of ammunition they can commit to purchasing. (The total percentage amount will be divided into however many manufacturers that are on the Pilot Program that is considered equal to the products listed below).

|Product |Rounds |Percentage |

|Federal AE9AP, 124 Grain FMJ |4,000 rounds |10% |

|Federal LE40T3, 165 Grain JHP 40 S&W |78,200 |10% |

|Federal LE223T1, 55Grain, FMJ-BT |21,520 |10% |

In addition to submitting pricing on the price sheets, all bidders must provide price lists that are properly identified with the manufacturer and/or distributor’s name and date and shall be standard printed price list and so recognized by the trade. Failure to provide these price lists may cause the bidder to be considered non responsive.

When a price list contains more than one price column, bidder must indicate the price column of which bid is based by marking through those price columns not applicable to submitted bid.

Customer satisfaction in the area of product quality, vendor reliability, and contractors’ administrative responsiveness are important elements of our evaluation and award method which will be evaluated using references. The state reserves the right to pursue vendor’s references in addition to those provided in the vendor’s response proposal.

After the first quarterly report is turned in by the contractor(s), the State Procurement Officer may ask contract users to compile their own Ballistic testing results for the ammunition they are purchasing and this information may be used as at the end of the Pilot Program to help determine what manufacturer brands will remain on the contract or be approved for future contract.
