Amendment Attachment: Overflow from Box-14 from SF-30 Amendment 0002 provides clarification on the MSPA worker's self-certification within the VIPR Quote Wizard for the 2024 Chipper advertisement.

While within the quote wizard of the VIPR Vendor Application, quoters will be asked to annotate YES, NO, PENDING if they will be employing H2B employees, MSPA workers, and if your company is a registered FLC with DOL. If a quoter annotates YES or PENDING, the VIPR Quote Wizard will require upload of the H2B or FLC certificate or proof of application. The FS realizes the MSPA worker and FLC question are requesting the same certificate or application verification to be uploaded and is redundant. Please upload the certificate or documentation twice in order to proceed successfully

Amendment Attachment: Overflow from Box-14 from SF-30 Re-open Solicitation. Vendor responses to the solicitation are due 02/25/2025 17:00 PCT Please access the 'Open Solicitations' tab in the VIPR Vendor application (https://apps.fs.usda.gov/vipr/vendor/) to start your response.

The Department of Agriculture (USDA), US Forest Service (USFS), ESB West Zone (Regions 3, 5, 6 and

10) requirement for Chippers for use during Local, Regional, and nationwide fire suppression and all-hazard incidents was originally solicited under solicitation number 12569R24Q7003.

This amendment is to re-open this solicitation to conduct an open season Onboarding in accordance with Exhibit H - Special Contract Requirements of the original solicitation.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Onboarding is not a new procurement and operates differently than a new solicitation. Onboarding is a result of the provisions established in the original solicitation and is issued as a solicitation amendment to the original solicitation. The terms and conditions of the original solicitation require that 'The award decision under the open season solicitation is based upon the same evaluation factors/sub-factors as the original solicitation.' Additionally, the terms and conditions of the original solicitation require that, 'The terms and conditions of any resulting new IBPA awards are identical to the original awards and solicitation, to include period of performance.' Accordingly, while the Government will entertain suggestions and Industry input regarding the Onboarding amendment, the Government anticipates very little change to result from this input, especially as it regards any potential changes to the evaluation factors or resulting terms and conditions.

This amendment for Onboarding is against a Multiple Award Incident Blanket Purchase Agreement (IBPA) solicitation issued as a 100% Small Business Set-Aside.

The open season Onboarding period will coincide with the USFS Contracting Officer (CO) IBPA Annual Review process, traditionally referred to as a 'Rollover' Modification process for existing IBPA awardees. Existing IBPA awardees will have the same opportunity to revise, modify rates, and add resources the same as potential new contractors do.

All proposed resources are subject to the original solicitation criteria. New Offerors that meet the eligibility requirements set forth in the original solicitation may submit a quote response through the VIPR system during open season. Award decisions from an open season solicitation response are based upon the same evaluation factors/sub-factors as the original solicitation. New quote responses must meet all Acceptability Pass/Fail Criteria of the original solicitation. The terms and conditions of any resulting new IBPA awards are identical to the original awards and solicitation, to include period of performance. Immediately after Onboarding and at the conclusion of the CO annual review/rollover modification period, any additional Contractors or accepted new resources to existing agreements are eligible to receive dispatches/BPA Calls with the same

Resource Categories Accepted by this Solicitation Chipper

Chipper Type 2

Chipper Type 3

SECTION B - INTRODUCTION

B.1 -- BACKGROUND.

(a) The intent of this solicitation is to obtain services described in D.1 Scope of Agreement for Local, Regional, and Nationwide fire suppression, all-hazard incidents, and prescribed fire project work.

(b) The Blanket Purchase Agreements resulting from this Request for Quote (RFQ) may be used by multiple State and Federal wildland fire agencies.

(c) Exhibit H contains special contract requirements, to include an open season on-ramping process being initiated by the Government to ensure adequate resources are available to meet its need.

B.2 -- CONTRACT TYPE AND DOLLAR LIMITATIONS

(a) This solicitation will result in multiple agreements. The dollar limitation for any individual order is the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT). Since the needs of the Government and availability of Contractor's resources during an emergency cannot be determined in advance, it is mutually agreed that, upon request of the Government, the Contractor shall furnish the resources listed herein to the extent the Contractor is willing and able at the time of order. Due to the sporadic occurrence of Incident activity, the placement of any orders IS NOT GUARANTEED.

(b) Proposed rates shall include, but are not limited to, labor (as required), equipment, operating supplies, materials, State and Federal taxes (including workers' compensation costs), insurance coverage, transportation costs, overhead, and profit, and any costs/fees necessary to ensure equipment/operators/crews meet(s) the specified standards. As required by the agreement, any costs associated with a contractor provided support truck for fuel, maintenance, and operator transportation; delivery/setup/takedown, mobilization/demobilization, power generation, and a Contractor's representative attendance at the operational period briefings should also be included.

Contractors shall comply with the 2:1 work/rest ratio as outlined in the NWCG Standards for Interagency Incident Business Management (Work/Rest Guidelines). When working an average of more than 16 hours, for the duration of the incident, a Contractor may request to negotiate an equitable adjustment through the Procurement Unit Leader or Contracting Officer. Shifts exceeding 16 hours shall be approved by the Incident Commander.

(c) Resources furnished under this agreement may be operated and subjected to extreme environmental and/or strenuous operating conditions which could include but is not limited to unimproved roads, steep, rocky, hilly terrain, dust, heat, and smoky conditions. As a result, by entering into this agreement, the contractor agrees that what is considered wear and tear under this agreement is in excess of what the resource is subjected to under normal operations and is reflected in the rates paid for the resource.

B.3 -- BASIS OF AWARD

(a) The Government will award a sufficient number of I-BPAs anticipated to meet incident resource needs resulting from this solicitation to responsible quoters whose quotes conforming to the solicitation will be advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The number of I-BPAs awarded will be determined based upon historical usage and other relevant data such as predictive services information, available personnel to administer agreements, etc. The USFS will determine annually whether it is in the Government's best interest to initiate an open season on-ramping process to add additional Contractors and/or resources during the annual Contracting Officer (CO) review period noted in Section C.3.1.

(b) Awards to a Government employee or to a business concern or other organization owned or substantially owned or controlled by one or more Government employees is prohibited (FAR Subpart 3.6). Public law (18 U.S.C. 208) is additionally established to avoid conflicts of interest between employees interests and their Governmental duties. Casuals hired under the Administratively Determined (AD) Pay Plan shall avoid decisions or recommendations to include, but not limited to:

supervision, hiring, ordering, or recommending payments that directly or indirectly affect a company or contractor the casual has any ownership or employment with or for that company or contractor assigned to an incident (NWCG Standards for Interagency Incident Business Management PMS 902).

(c) The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotes:

(1) Operational acceptability of equipment/resource offered to meet the Government requirement

(2) Price reasonableness

(3) Past performance dependability risk

(d) A quote will be considered operationally acceptable if the offered resource meets the minimum requirements stated in the specifications.

(e) Price reasonableness may be based upon competition, government estimates, commercial pricing, historical data, etc.; generally, reasonable pricing that is low will result in higher dispatch priority.

(f) Past performance dependability risk will be assessed as high, low, or unknown (high indicating significant probability for poor future performance) based upon customer satisfaction as reflected in evaluations received for the quoter on incidents and other related experience within the past 36 months, compliance with Federal, state, and local laws and regulations, and quoter's history of reasonable and cooperative behavior. Pursuant to FAR 42.1501 the contractor's record of integrity and business ethics, and generally, the contractor's business-like concern for the interest of the customer will be a consideration of past performance.

(g) I-BPAs will be awarded only to quoters with:

(1) reasonably priced resources

(2) operationally acceptable resources

(3) a low or unknown performance risk

(h) The notice of award will be electronically mailed to the vendor's email address as provided in

VIPR.

B.4 -- MULTIPLE RESOURCE CATEGORIES/TYPING

A single resource may be awarded under multiple resource categories and/or typing. However, the same Dispatch Center must be selected for the single resource. In addition, nationally only one award will be made for a resource within each category and/or type. The Contractor may choose to respond to solicitations from multiple geographic areas; but upon acceptance of an offer of award, all other offers for that resource category and/or type will be ineligible for award. Prospective quoters are cautioned to carefully consider the solicitations to which they respond.

B.5 -- UNRESTRICTED

(a) I-BPA solicitations will be set-aside for small business concerns unless market research indicates a need to advertise on an unrestricted basis (i.e. there are not enough small business concerns to meet anticipated needs). If Block 10 of the SF-1449 is checked "unrestricted":

(1) Multiple awards of I-BPAs resulting from this solicitation will be made to responsible business concerns.

(2) Priority ranking for dispatch will be determined by the method described in D.6.2; no advantage will be given for business size or status in an unrestricted solicitation.

B.6 -- SOCIOECONOMIC STATUS ADVANTAGE APPLICABLE TO DPL RANKING

(a) Multiple awards of I-BPAs resulting from this solicitation will be made on a competitive basis to responsible small business concerns.

(b) Priority ranking for dispatch will be determined by applying a 5% advantage (to the method described in D.6.2) for each socioeconomic category (other than small business) checked in Block 10 of the SF-1449. A vendor meeting multiple targeted socioeconomic categories will receive multiple percentage points with a cap of 10%; for example, if HUBZone, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, and 8(A) are all checked in Block 10 and a vendor qualifies as all three then the advantage will be 10% for purposes of Dispatch Priority List placement.
