LC52.201-1 Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) Appointment and Authority (Jan 2016)

(a) Performance of work under this contract is subject to the technical direction of the COR. The term “technical direction” includes, without limitation, direction to the contractor that directs or redirects the labor effort, shifts the work between work areas or locations, and/or fills in details and otherwise serves to ensure that tasks outlined in the contract are accomplished satisfactorily.

(b) Technical direction must be within the scope of the contract specification(s)/work statement. The COR does not have authority to issue technical direction that:

(1) Constitutes additional work outside the contract specification(s)/work statement;

(2) Constitutes a change as defined in the “Changes” clause of this contract;

(3) Causes an increase or decrease in the contract price, or the time required for contract performance;

Document Number: 030ADV20Q0010 Page 10 of 39

(4) Changes any of the terms, conditions, or specification(s)/work statement of the contract;

(5) Interferes with the contractor's right to perform under the terms and conditions of the contract; or

(6) Directs, supervises or otherwise controls the actions of the contractor's employees.

(c) Technical direction may be oral or in writing. The COR must confirm oral direction in writing within five workdays, with a copy to the Contracting Officer.

(d) The Contractor shall proceed promptly with performance resulting from the technical direction issued by the COR. If, in the opin-ion of the contractor, any direction of the COR or the designated representative falls within the limitations of (b) above, the contractor shall immediately notify the Contracting Officer no later than the beginning of the next Government work day.

(e) Failure of the Contractor and the Contracting Officer to agree that technical direction is within the scope of the contract shall be subject to the terms of the “Disputes” clause of this contract.

(End of clause)

LC52.203-1 Contractor Publicity (Oct 2013)

The Contractor, or any entity or representative acting on behalf of the Contractor, may not refer to the equipment or services furnished pursuant to the provisions of this contract in any news release or commercial advertising, or in connection with any news release or commercial advertising, without first obtaining explicit written consent to do so from the Contracting Officer. Should any reference to such equipment or services appear in any news release or commercial advertising issued by or on behalf of the Contractor without the required consent, the Government will consider institution of all remedies available under applicable law.

(End of clause)

LC52.204-2 Physical Security (Mar 2015)

Access to Library buildings and grounds is governed by 36 C.F.R. part 702 - Conduct on Library Premises. Contractor staff must com-ply with requirements and restrictions and related Library of Congress Regulations and Directives.

(End of clause)

LC52.204-4 Contractor Suitability (May 2014)

Work under this contract is unclassified. However, the Library of Congress has a contractor suitability program, including the conduct of background investigations on contractor personnel who will have regular, ongoing, unescorted access to the Library’s buildings, grounds, collections, or information technology systems to ensure they meet basic standards of honesty and trustworthiness. The Lib-rary does not determine the suitability of employees to work for the contractor firm that hires them. The Library’s interest is in de-termining whether the contractor personnel should be granted access to Library facilities greater than the access that would be af-forded to a member of the general public. The contractor will ensure the Library’s Personnel Security Office is notified of all changes to personnel performing work on this contract. The Personnel Security Office can be notified at the following email address:

wlit@loc.gov and contacted via phone at: 202-707-5618.

The fact that the Library may conduct background investigations on assigned contractor personnel does not relieve the contractor of the responsibility to provide qualified, reliable personnel of sound character and conduct.

(End of clause)

LC52.209-1 Conflicts of Interest (Oct 2013)

The services required in performance of this contract involve access to non-public information and/or services that are closely associ-ated with the performance of inherently governmental functions that may result in conflicts of interest related to this contract, other contracts, or future contracts for which the contractor may intend to compete. Federal Acquisition Regulation subpart 9.5 describes circumstances and provides illustrative examples of circumstances that may give rise to conflicts of interest.

Document Number: 030ADV20Q0010 Page 11 of 39

The Contractor must identify to the contracting officer any conflicts of interest, actual or potential, that may reasonably be expected to arise in performance of this contract. The contractor must provide a detailed written description of the conflict of interest and a plan explaining any and all steps the Contractor will undertake to avoid or mitigate the conflict. Failure to disclose actual or potential con-flicts of interest may subject the Contractor to corrective action including but not limited to termination of this contract, debarment of the contractor, and/or other appropriate civil or criminal actions.

It is solely within the discretion of the Library to determine whether or not a conflict of interest exists and whether any mitigation plan submitted by the Contractor mitigates a conflict.

The Contractor shall include this clause in all subcontracts, consultant agreements, and lower tier subcontracts unless a waiver is gran-ted by the Contracting Officer.

(End of clause)

LC52.237-2 Conduct of Work (May 2015)

The personnel employed by the Contractor shall be capable employees qualified in this type of work. The Contractor shall be respons-ible for all damage to Library property by the activities of his employees resulting from these operations. The Contracting Officer may require removal from work on this contract any employee(s) that may be deemed incompetent, careless, insubordinate, unsuitable, or otherwise objectionable, or whose continued employment is deemed contrary to the public interest or inconsistent with the best in-terest of or the security of the Library.
