SECTION G – CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION DATA

1. CONTRACT REPRESENTATIVE

Contracting Officer (CO): Deborah Cimmer

National Park Service Office Servicing Regions 6, 7, & 8 Arizona Major Acquisition Buying Office (MABO) Phone: (928) 266.2106 Email: deborah_cimmer@nps.gov

Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) / Site Representative (SR) / Project Inspector (PI): Will be identified upon award.

2. CONTRACTING OFFICER’S REPRESENTATIVE – LIAISON

The COR will act like as a liaison between the National Park Service herein referred to as “Service” and the Contractor, and, when necessary, will provide technical direction to the Contractor for this base contract. An appropriate park COR will be appointed for the contract. The COR is not authorized to change any of the terms and conditions of the contract, issue new assignments of work, make decisions concerning disputes arising under the contract, or resolve differing site condition matters. Neither the presence nor absence of the government representative shall relieve the Contractor of its responsibilities under the contract.

3. TECHNICAL DIRECTION

The performance of the work required herein shall be subject to the technical direction and surveillance of the COR. As used herein, “technical direction” is direction to the Contractor which requires pursuit of certain lines of inquiry, filling in details or otherwise serving to accomplish the contract specifications. The technical direction, to be valid:

(a) Must be issued in writing consistent with the general scope of the work set forth in the contract;

(b) May not constitute a new assignment of work or changes to the expressed terms, conditions, or specifications incorporated into this contract;

(c) Shall not constitute a basis for extension of the contract delivery schedule. Nothing contained in this part authorizes mailto:deborah_cimmer@nps.gov the Contractor to incur costs in excess of the contract price or other limitation of funds set forth in the contract due to extra work performed in response to informal directions, suggestions, or instructions (oral or written) given by representatives of the CO, unless prior to commencing such work, the Contractor: (1) directly notifies the CO; (2) requests a formal contract modification; and (3) receives written authorization to proceed from the CO.

4. JOB SITE ADMINISTRATION

The Government will designate a COR / SR / PI who will be available at the site to inspect the work as it progresses. The COR / CR / SR will prepare an Inspector’s Daily Log, beginning with the first day of the contract, detailing ground and weather conditions, work being performed, materials delivered, and notes of any problems or difficulties. Government inspections do not relieve the Contractor of responsibility for providing adequate quality control measures. At the end of every day of work on this contract, The Contractor’s Superintendent, as defined below, shall contact the COR / SR / PI, review the daily log, and sign as the Contractor’s representative. Unless the Contractor’s Superintendent makes a contrary notation on the daily log, the log shall be presumed to be accurate. The SR / PI is not authorized to make technical decisions or give technical directions; the Contractor or the Contractor’s Superintendent must contact the COR regarding such decision and direction. The Contractor shall have a competent Superintendent (hereinafter referred to as the “Contractor’s Superintendent”) who is (i) deemed acceptable to the Government; (ii) authorized to act on the Contractor’s behalf; and (iii) be present on the job site at all times when contract work is being performed. (See Superintendence by the Contractor, Section I, Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) Clause 52.236-6.)

NOTICE TO CONTRACTORS - CONTRACTOR PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT REPORTING SYSTEM (DEC 2015)

1. FAR 42.1502 directs all Federal agencies to collect past performance information on contracts. The Department of the Interior (DOI) has implemented the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) to comply with this regulation. One or more past performance evaluations will be conducted in order to record your contract performance as required by FAR 42.15.

2. The past performance evaluation process is a totally paperless process using CPARS. CPARS is a web-based system that allows for electronic processing of the performance evaluation report. Once the report is processed, it is available in the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) for Government use in evaluating past performance as part of a source selection action.

3. We request that you furnish the Contracting Officer (CO) with the name, position title, phone number, and email address for each person designated to have access to your firm's past performance evaluation(s) for the contract no later than 30 days after award. Each person granted access will have the ability to provide comments in the Contractor portion of the report and state whether or not the Contractor agrees with the evaluation, before returning the report to the Assessing Official (AO). Information in the report must be protected as source selection sensitive information not releasable to the public.

4. When your Contractor Representative(s) are registered in CPARS, they will receive an automatically generated email with detailed login instructions. Further details, systems requirements, and training information for CPARS is available at https://www.cpars.gov/.

5. Within 60 days after the end of a performance period, the AO will complete an interim or final past performance evaluation, and the report will be accessible at https://www.cpars.gov/.

a. Contractor Representatives may then provide comments in response to the evaluation, or return the evaluation without comment.

b. Your comments should focus on objective facts in the AO's narrative and should provide your views on the causes and ramifications of the assessed performance.

c. All information provided should be reviewed for accuracy prior to submission.

d. If you elect not to provide comments, please acknowledge receipt of the evaluation by indicating "No comment" in the space provided, and then selecting “Accept the Ratings and Close the Evaluation”.

e. Your response is due within 60 calendar days after receipt of the CPAR. On day 15, the evaluation will become available in PPIRS-RC marked as “Pending” with or without comments and whether or not it has been closed.

f. If you do not sign and submit the CPAR within 60 days, it will automatically be returned to the Government and will be annotated: "The report was delivered/received by the contractor on (date). The contractor neither signed nor offered comment in response to this assessment."

6. The following guidelines apply concerning your use of the past performance evaluation:

a. Protect the evaluation as source selection information. After review, transmit the evaluation by completing and submitting the form through CPARS. If for some reason you are unable to view and/or submit the form through CPARS, contact the CO for instructions.

b. Strictly control access to the evaluation within your organization. Ensure the evaluation is never released to persons or entities outside of your control.

c. Prohibit the use of or reference to evaluation data for advertising, promotional material, pre-award surveys, responsibility determinations, production readiness reviews, or other similar purposes.

7. If you wish to discuss a past performance evaluation, you should request a meeting in writing to the CO no later than seven days following your receipt of the evaluation. The meeting will be held in person or via telephone or other means during your 60-day review period.

8. A copy of the completed past performance evaluation will be available in CPARS for your viewing and for Government use supporting source selection actions after it has been finalized.

52.204-21 BASIC SAFEGUARDING OF COVERED CONTRACTOR INFORMATION SYSTEMS (JUN 2016)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause–

“Covered contractor information system” means an information system that is owned or operated by a contractor that processes, stores, or transmits Federal contract information.

“Federal contract information” means information, not intended for public release, that is provided by or generated for the Government under a contract to develop or deliver a product or service to the Government, but not including information provided by the Government to the public (such as on public websites) or simple transactional information, such as necessary to process payments.

“Information” means any communication or representation of knowledge such as facts, data, or opinions, in any medium or form, including textual, numerical, graphic, cartographic, narrative, or audiovisual (Committee on National Security Systems Instruction (CNSSI) 4009).

“Information system” means a discrete set of information resources organized for the collection, processing, maintenance, use, sharing, dissemination, or disposition of information (44 U.S.C. 3502).

“Safeguarding” means measures or controls that are prescribed to protect information systems.

(b) Safeguarding requirements and procedures.

Document Title

(1) The Contractor shall apply the following basic safeguarding requirements and procedures to protect covered contractor information systems. Requirements and procedures for basic safeguarding of covered contractor information systems shall include, at a minimum, the following security controls:

(i) Limit information system access to authorized users, processes acting on behalf of authorized users, or devices (including other information systems).

(ii) Limit information system access to the types of transactions and functions that authorized users are permitted to execute.

(iii) Verify and control/limit connections to and use of external information systems.

(iv) Control information posted or processed on publicly accessible information systems.

(2) Other requirements. This clause does not relieve the Contractor of any other specific safeguarding requirements specified by Federal agencies and departments relating to covered contractor information systems generally or other Federal safeguarding requirements for controlled unclassified information (CUI) as established by Executive Order 13556.

(c) Subcontracts. The Contractor shall include the substance of this clause, including this paragraph (c), in subcontracts under this contract (including subcontracts for the acquisition of commercial items, other than commercially available off-the-shelf items), in which the subcontractor may have Federal contract information residing in or transiting through its information system.

(1) Contracts that have been set aside or reserved any of the small business concerns identified in 19.000(a)(3);

(d) Independent contractors. An independent contractor shall be considered a subcontractor.

(e) Agreement. By submission of an offer and execution of a contract, the Offeror/Contractor agrees in performance of the contract in the case of a contract for—

(1) Services (except construction), it will not pay more than 50 percent of the amount paid by the Government for contract performance to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities. Any work that a similarly situated entity further subcontracts will count toward the 50 percent subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded;

(2) Supplies (other than procurement from a nonmanufacturer of such supplies), it will not pay more than 50 percent of the amount paid by the Government for contract performance, excluding the cost of materials, to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities. Any work that a similarly situated entity further subcontracts will count toward the 50 percent subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded;

(3) General construction, it will not pay more than 85 percent of the amount paid by the Government for contract performance, excluding the cost of materials, to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities. Any work that a similarly situated entity further subcontracts will count toward the 85 percent subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded; or

(4) Construction by special trade contractors, it will not pay more than 75 percent of the amount paid by the Government for contract performance, excluding the cost of materials, to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities. Any work that a similarly situated entity further subcontracts will count toward the 75 percent subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded.
