(1) It is compliant with all applicable Federal anti-discrimination laws and the Equal Protection principles of the U.S. Constitution, and it will remain compliant for the duration of the contract.

(2) Neither it nor any subcontractor or teaming partner operates or funds any program, policy, or initiative that promotes DEI in a manner that violates any applicable Federal anti-discrimination laws, including but not limited to Title VI and VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, or the Equal Protection principles of the U.S. Constitution, and the Contractor and any subcontractor or teaming partner will not do so for the duration of the contract.

(b) If the Contractor participates in, facilitates, or funds programs that implicate Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 or Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, as amended, including but not limited to grants to or for schools, colleges, universities, 4-H programs, non-governmental organization (NGO) programs, sports programs, and education-related grants to prisons or other detention facilities, the Contractor certifies that it will remain compliant with those laws, including the requirements set forth in Executive Order 14168, Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government, and Executive Order 14173, Ending Illegal Discrimination and Restoring Merit-Based Opportunity.

(c) The Contractor affirms that the above requirements are conditions of payment that go to the essence of the contract and are therefore material terms of the contract. Payments under the contract are predicated on compliance with the above requirements, and therefore the Contractor is not eligible for funding under the contract or to retain any funding under the contract absent compliance with the above requirements.

(d) This certification reflects a change in the Government’s position regarding the materiality of the foregoing requirements and therefore any prior payment of similar claims does not reflect the materiality of the foregoing requirements to this contract.

(e) Submission of a knowing false statement relating to Contractor’s compliance with the above requirements and/or eligibility for the contract may subject the Contractor to liability under the False Claims Act, 31 U.S.C. § 3729, and/or criminal liability, including under 18 U.S.C. §§ 287 and 1001.

(a) If unliquidated funds in the amount of $1000 or less remain on the contract, the Contracting Officer (Contracting Officer) may issue a unilateral modification for deobligation. The contractor will receive a copy of the modification but is not required to provide a signature. The Contracting Officer will immediately proceed with contract closeout upon completion of the period of performance, receipt and acceptance of supplies or services, and final payment.

(b) For commercial contracts not exceeding the simplified acquisition procedure threshold under FAR 12.001(c), if more than $1,000 in unliquidated funds remain at closeout, the Contracting Officer will issue a bilateral deobligation modification.

If the required documents are not returned within 60 days, the Contracting Officer will issue a unilateral modification and proceed with closeout once performance is complete, acceptance is confirmed, and final payment is made.

(c) For all other non-commercial or non–cost‑reimbursement contracts, if more than $1,000 in unliquidated funds remain at closeout, the Contracting Officer will issue a bilateral deobligation modification and a Release of Claims, both requiring contractor signature. If these documents are not returned within 120 days, the Contracting Officer will issue a unilateral modification u and proceed with closeout upon completion of performance, acceptance, and final payment.

(ii) Shall not be affected by delayed, partial, or omitted exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege, nor shall such exercise or any single exercise preclude or impair any further exercise under this clause or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege of the Government.

(k) Refund of unearned amounts. If the Contractor, after making a certified request for progress payments, discovers that a portion or all of such request constitutes a payment for performance by the Contractor that fails to conform to the specifications, terms, and conditions of this contract (hereinafter referred to as the "unearned amount"), the Contractor shall-

(1) Notify the Contracting Officer of such performance deficiency; and

(2) Be obligated to pay the Government an amount (computed by the Contracting Officer in the manner provided in paragraph (j) of this clause) equal to interest on the unearned amount from the 8th day after the date of receipt of the unearned amount until-

(i) The date the Contractor notifies the Contracting Officer that the performance deficiency has been corrected; or

(ii) The date the Contractor reduces the amount of any subsequent certified request for progress payments by an amount equal to the unearned amount.

(l) Retainage. If the Contracting Officer finds that satisfactory progress was achieved during any period for which a progress payment is to be made, the Contracting Officer shall authorize payment to be made in full. However, if satisfactory progress has not been made, the Contracting Officer may retain a maximum of 10 percent of the amount of the payment until satisfactory progress is achieved. When the work is substantially complete, the Contracting Officer may retain from previously withheld funds and future progress payments that amount the Contracting Officer considers adequate for protection of the Government and shall release to the Contractor all the remaining withheld funds. Also, on completion and acceptance of each separate building, public work, or other division of the contract, for which the price is stated separately in the contract, payment shall be made for the completed work without retention of a percentage.

(m) Title, liability, and reservation of rights. All material and work covered by progress payments made shall, at the time of payment, become the sole property of the Government, but this shall not be construed as-

(1) Relieving the Contractor from the sole responsibility for all material and work upon which payments have been made or the restoration of any damaged work; or

(2) Waiving the right of the Government to require the fulfillment of all the terms of the contract.

(3) The Government’s rights and remedies under this clause-

(i) Shall not be exclusive, but rather shall be in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law or this contract; and

(ii) Shall not be affected by delayed, partial, or omitted exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege, nor shall such exercise or any single exercise preclude or impair any further exercise under this clause or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege of the Government.

(n) Reimbursement for bond premiums. In making these progress payments, the Government shall, upon request, reimburse the Contractor for the amount of premiums paid for performance and payment bonds (including coinsurance and reinsurance agreements, when applicable) after the Contractor has furnished evidence of full payment to the surety. The retainage provisions in paragraph (l) of this clause shall not apply to that portion of progress payments attributable to bond premiums.

(o) Final payment. The Government shall pay the amount due the Contractor under this contract after-

(1) Completion and acceptance of all work;

(2) Presentation of a properly executed voucher; and

(3) Presentation of release of all claims against the Government arising by virtue of this contract, other than claims, in stated amounts, that the Contractor has specifically excepted from the operation of the release. A release may also be required of the assignee if the Contractor’s claim to amounts payable under this contract has been assigned under the Assignment of Claims Act of1940 ( 31 U.S.C.3727 and 41 U.S.C. 6305).

(p) Limitation because of undefinitized work. Notwithstanding any provision of this contract, progress payments shall not exceed 80 percent on work accomplished on undefinitized contract actions. A "contract action" is any action resulting in a contract, as defined in FAR subpart 2.1, including contract modifications for additional supplies or services, but not including contract modifications that are within the scope and under the terms of the contract, such as contract modifications issued pursuant to the Changes clause, or funding and other administrative changes.

Solicitation Information

Award Type

It is anticipated that a Firm-Fixed Price Contract will be awarded as a result of this synopsis/solicitation.

The Government intends to make one award from this solicitation. Therefore, to be considered responsive, contractors must submit pricing for all items.

Period of Performance

The Contractor is required to commence work under this contract within 10 calendar days after the date the Contractor receives the Notice to Proceed (NTP) and the entire work ready for use not later than 90 calendar days after NTP. The time stated for completion shall include final cleanup of the premises.

Evaluation and Basis for Award

The provision at FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation—Commercial Products and Commercial Services is not applicable to this solicitation. In lieu of this provision, quotes will be evaluated in accordance with FAR 12.203 based on the criteria listed below. Award will be made to the offeror representing the lowest price technically acceptable to the Government.

Evaluation Method http://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title31-section3727&num=0&edition=prelim http://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title41-section6305&num=0&edition=prelim

The Government will evaluate quotations based on the lowest price technically acceptable criteria.

Only the lowest priced offer will be evaluated for Technical Acceptability. Should the lowest priced offer not receive an acceptable technical or past performance rating, the process will continue in order of lowest priced offer until the lowest price, technically acceptable offer with acceptable or neutral past performance is identified.

Award on Initial Responses: The government anticipates selecting the Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable Offeror from initial proposal, without engaging in exchanges with contractors.

Therefore, the Offeror’s initial proposal should contain the Offeror’s best terms. After receipt of proposal, the Government will conduct an evaluation. However, during the evaluation process, the Government may, solely at its discretion, communicate with Offerors regarding proposal elements.

Factors are of equal importance.

The following evaluation factors will be used and performed using Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable for Factors 1 & 2 (see Table 1 below):

• Factor 1: Technical Approach (Project Schedule)

• Factor 2: Demonstrated Prior Experience

• Factor 3: Price Schedule

Technical Acceptability:

Technical Acceptability will be evaluated to receive an overall rating of "acceptable" or "unacceptable." This will be based on the offeror's ability to provide a sound and compliant approach that meets all requirements and shows a thorough understanding of them. It is the contractor's responsibility to ensure their quotation clearly demonstrates their capability to meet these requirements.

Rating System:

The table below shows the ratings the Government will assign in its evaluation of quotes when evaluating Factors 1 & 2:

Table 1 - Technical Acceptable/Unacceptable Ratings Rating Description Acceptable Proposal clearly meets the requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Proposal does not clearly meet the requirements of the solicitation.

Offerors must receive and a “Acceptable” rating for the Technical Acceptability factor in order to be considered for award.

Initially, the Government technical evaluation team will evaluate the technical proposals using ratings of “Acceptable,” or “Unacceptable.” Failure to meet all requirements may result in an offer being determined technically unacceptable.

Technical Approach (Project Schedule):

The Government will evaluate how the Offeror will:

• How the Offeror will execute the technical requirements described in the Specifications

(Labeled:

• Attachment 1 - FTS 2026 Diesel Fuel System Drawings

• Attachment 2 - FTS 2026 Diesel Fuel System Specs

• Attachment 3 - FTS 2026 Diesel Fuel System SOI

▪ Attachment 4 - Wage Rate Determinations

• The way the Offeror proposes to plan, manage, control, and provide the required construction services and deliverables.

• How a comprehensive schedule includes all activities for its contractor necessary to accomplish a project’s objectives as defined in the Specifications.

The Government will evaluate a project schedule based on the offeror’s proposed critical path method.

1. Comprehensive, reflecting:

• all activities as defined in the Specifications

• the labor, materials, and overhead needed to do the work

• how long each activity will take, allowing for discrete progress measurement with specific start and finish dates

2. Well-constructed, with:

• all activities logically sequenced with predecessor and successor logic

• critical path method scheduling that contains all the work represented in logically linked activities representation the execution plan

• a critical path that determines which activities drive the project’s earliest completion date

• total float that accurately determines the schedule’s flexibility

No discussions will be held, so any exceptions may cause the quotation to be found technically unacceptable.

Demonstrated Prior Experience:

The Government may utilize any references provided by the Contractor, along with information available from past contracts/orders with the USDA and any information found using sources such as Federal Government sources or the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) to determine if the Contractor has acceptable or neutral Past Performance. Past Performance will be evaluated using the following rating system:

• Acceptable: The contractor shows a demonstrated ability to meet contract requirements in prior or current contracts, including quality of work, timeliness, cost control, business relations, and adherence to contract terms, or Offeror does not have a past performance record.

• Unacceptable: The contractor has a documented history of failing to meet contract requirements, including poor quality, missed deadlines, cost overruns, lack of responsiveness, or unethical behavior.

Price Schedule:

The offeror shall provide pricing as requested in the attached spreadsheet titled “Attachment 3 - FTS 2026 Diesel Fuel System SOI” (Fill out Column E and the rest will self-populate). The offeror’s quotation will be evaluated in accordance with FAR 12.204, to determine if it is fair and reasonable.

Delivery Information

F.o.b. destination, is requested as the F.O.B. point for all deliverables.

All offers will be considered F.O.B. Destination unless F.O.B. origin is specified AND estimated shipping costs are included.

The USDA requires delivery of all items before the Notice to Proceed (NTP) will be issued. Early deliveries will be accepted.

(b) Technical Proposal Instructions

The technical proposal will be used to make an evaluation and arrive at a determination as to whether the proposal will meet the requirements of the Government. Therefore, the technical proposal must present sufficient information to reflect a thorough understanding of the requirements and a detailed description of techniques, procedures and program for achieving the objectives of the specifications/statement of work. At a minimum the technical proposal should clearly address the following:

Volume I. Technical Approach (Project Schedule)/Demonstrated Prior Experience

Factor 1. Technical Approach (Project Schedule)

The schedule shall realistically reflect how long each activity will take and be planned so that critical project dates can be met. To do this, activities need to be logically sequenced-that is, listed in the order in which they are to be carried out.

Date constraints and lags should be minimized and justified to help ensure that the interdependence of activities that collectively lead to the completion of events can be established and used to guide work and measure progress. The schedule shall reflect the resources (labor, materials, overhead) needed to do the work, whether they will be available when needed, and any time constraints.

The schedule shall identify the project critical path-the path of longest duration through the sequence of activities. In addition, the schedule shall identify reasonable float (or slack)- the amount of time by which a predecessor activity can slip before the delay affects the project’s estimated finish date-so that the schedule’s flexibility can be determined. The amount of detail shall be sufficient to identify the longest path of activities through the entire project.

Describe the Offeror’s proposed technical approach for completing the project tasks for satisfying the Government’s performance requirements identified in the Plans/Technical Requirements. Also, identify the tasks to be completed by sub-contractors, and provide their company names. Provide technical capabilities narrative of the proposed their subcontractors.

Offeror shall also include any other relevant information necessary to demonstrate an understanding of, or technical capability to complete, the requirements written in this solicitation.

Factor 2. Demonstrated Prior Experience

Offerors shall provide relevant Experience and provide a list of similar projects completed by your firm over the past five years. Include a brief description of the project, dollar amount, year completed, and project owner contact information (name, phone, and email). The government may use past performance information from any available source. If a company does not have past performance information available, information may be provided for predecessor companies, key personnel, or subcontractors. Offerors must provide a minimum of three (3) recent and relevant projects performed in the last 5 years from the date of issuance of this solicitation and demonstrate a minimum of one (1) year experience.

The Offeror shall provide sufficient information for the Government to evaluate its minimum requirement, regarding the Offeror’s demonstrated prior experience it aligns to the requirements of the Specifications, and the RFQ.

• Submit price that is consistent with the offeror’s proposal outlined in Volume I Technical Approach (Project Schedule)/Demonstrated Prior Experience and defined requirements of the Specifications.

• Backup Instructions should include enough information for the Government to determine price reasonableness.

• Price shall be submitted the Attachment 3 - FTS 2026 Diesel Fuel System SOI in Excel with formulas unlocked

• A proposed Progress Payment schedule, if applicable.

• If subcontractors are used, the prime contractor shall provide subcontractor’s proposed prices and the prime contractor has the principal responsibility for ensuring the proposed subcontracting prices/costs are fair and reasonable.
