To remain registered in the CCR database after the initial registration,
the Contractor is required to review and update on an annual basis from the date
of initial registration or subsequent updates its information in the CCR
database to ensure it is current, accurate and complete.
Updating information in the CCR does not alter the terms and conditions
of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed contractual
document.
(2)

legally changed its business name, “doing business as” name, or division name
(whichever is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets used in
performing the contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements

Contractor shall provide the responsible Contracting Officer a minimum of one
business day’s written notification of its intention to (A) change the name in
the CCR database; (B) comply with the requirements of subpart 42.12; and (C)
agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the responsible
Contracting Officer. The Contractor
must provide with the notification sufficient documentation to support the
legally changed name.
(ii) If the Contractor
fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (t)(2)(i) of this clause, or
fails to perform the agreement at paragraph (t)(2)(i)(C) of this clause, and, in
the absence of a properly executed novation or change-of-name agreement, the CCR
information that shows the Contractor to be other than the Contractor indicated
in the contract will be considered to be incorrect information within the
meaning of the “Suspension of Payment” paragraph of the electronic funds
transfer (EFT) clause of this contract.
(3) The
Contractor shall not change the name or address for EFT payments or manual
payments, as appropriate, in the CCR record to reflect an assignee for the
purpose of assignment of claims (see Subpart 32.8, Assignment of Claims).
Assignees shall be separately registered in the CCR database.
Information provided to the Contractor’s CCR record that indicates
payments, including those made by EFT, to an ultimate recipient other than that
Contractor will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of
the “Suspension of payment” paragraph of the EFT clause of this contract.
(4)

over 36,000 parts all updated on GSA Advantage.
We have
numerous sales and technical staff that can help you here at A1 Barcode Systems.
Most of our items are highly technical, and might require a specialist
to assist you. Please call us and
let us help. Ordering without
knowledge of a product is a reciepe for an RMA, which we don’t want anyone to
have to spent the time to process.
Order Processing
We ship day of
order if ordered before 12:00 Noon, or next day after that, if in stock.
We state 3 days After Receipt of Order.
Actually, this is usually 2-3 days.

instructions.

are FOB Origin, unless other arrangements are made prior to shipments from Daphne, AL 36526. Most
of our shipments are sent 2nd day UPS or FED EX in most cases,
calculated from our FOB Origin.
Larger orders
or negotiated contracts with RFQ’s do not apply.
We have great rates for shipping.
All orders that
are requested out of the US,
must be either APO or FPO.
These shipments will be USPS Priority insured, unless the officer
specifies otherwise. We have no
capability of tracking these items except to the APO/FPO point we shipped them
to. Additionally, we accept no
responsibility except for proof of shipping to the consolidation point.
If extra
shipping cost are required to deliver items to the USPS, those cost will be
passed on to the customer(he will be apprised of the charges).
This can require a double shipping process, since most of our products
are shipped UPS and FED EX. It is
policy to make the customer aware of any cost that are not customary in our
government processes.
Expedited
shipping is available, in FED EX or UPS overnight, 2nd day, and
ground delivery. Charges will apply
which we must pass on to you.
Remember most of our shipments are normally 2nd Day anyway,
especially in the southeast and east, so ask.
Within 15 days,
all items are returnable except for Media(ribbons and labels) and Software.
RMA Procedures
1)
Return Material Authorizations must be requested from our office.
2)
The address and RMA information will be given to the contract officer or end
user to be returned. and must accompany the packaging and be marked.
3)
Customer is responsible for return shipping cost unless it is a DOA.
4)
All returned items must be in the original box with no markings, especially on
returns where products is not DOA. Fees will be incurred at least as in
5).
5)
Restocking fees can be up to 15-20% on some items and any original shipping
cost will not be returnable for returned items.
Obviously, if
an error was considered to be a miscommunication on our part or mis-shipment,
there will be no charge and all return shipping cost will be covered by A1
Barcode Systems.
