Fair Opportunity

FAR 16.505(b) (1) provides that each contractor shall be given fair opportunity to be considered for each order exceeding $10,000 and issued under multiple award contracts. The FAR states that the method to obtain fair opportunity is at the discretion of the Contracting Officer (CO) and that the CO must document the rationale for placement and price of each order.

Using the online SEWP Quote Request Tool (QRT) is the recommended method to assist in this activity and to augment the required decision documentation. The SEWP QRT will automatically include the contract holders within a selected group or based on a suggested source.

FROM REQUIREMENT TO FULFILLMENT

Ordering through SEWP VI

NASA’s SEWP VI Program Management Office maintains a Quote Request Tool that allows customers to initiate Requests for Quote (RFQs) to initiate orders. The Quote Request Tool is accessible through the SEWP website: www.sewp.nasa.gov/sewpvi/. In addition to facilitating submission of RFQs, the site provides many other tools and support information to assist SEWP customers with managing orders throughout their lifecycle.

Ordering Process

Ordering under a NASA SEWP contract follows the issuing Agency’s internal procurement procedures. The Agency, not the NASA SEWP Program Management Office (PMO), is responsible for issuing Purchase Requests (PRs) and Delivery Orders (DOs).

1. Identify the Requirement

   The end user identifies a need and prepares a Purchase Request (PR).

2. Submit the PR

   The PR, along with any required funding information, is submitted to the Agency’s procurement office.

3. Agency Issues the Delivery Order

   The Agency’s procurement office issues the Delivery Order (DO) against the SEWP contract. The NASA SEWP PMO does not issue DOs.

4. SEWP PMO Processes the Order

   The SEWP PMO reviews, processes, and tracks issued DOs and forwards them to the applicable Contract Holder(s).

Processing time
Processing time of the order at NASA is typically less than one business day from receipt of the Delivery Order to delivery to the contract holder.
