Clauses By Full Text
B.1 Services and Prices/Costs
Contractor shall provide Residential Reentry Center (RRC) Services (for In-House RRC beds) and Home Confinement Services (for Home Confinement placements) for male and female Federal offenders held under the authority of various United States Statutes loc-ated within the city limits of Columbia, South Carolina.
The services will be provided on an indefinite delivery, indefinite-quantity type contract with firm-fixed unit prices according to the guaranteed minimum quantities and maximum quantities outlined above. It is the intent of the Government to award Line Items for RRC in-house beds and home confinement placements to a single provider as these services are interconnected and rely upon each
15BRRC19R00000097 Page 4 of 46 other to ensure adequate programming and case management of offenders.
The period of performance for any contract which the Government may award under the terms and conditions of the RFP will be for a one year base period with a guaranteed minimum and a maximum. The guaranteed minimum will be calculated based on number of mandays used at the end of the base period. The additional nine one-year option periods will not include a guaranteed minimum, only a maximum. Offerors must submit pricing for the base period and each option period. Services are required to be provided in ac-cordance with Section C, Statement of Work, with documentation as required. For the purposes of billing, home confinement and fur-loughs are considered one manday. Also, furloughs shall be billed at half the rate of the In-house RRC rate.
The Government reserves the right to award without discussions and to make an award which is deemed to be in the best interest of the Government. "RRC services" (for In-house RRC beds) are as defined by the statement of work for this requirement. "Home Confinement services" (for home confinement placements) are as defined in Chapter 10, Programs, and in all other applicable references in the statement of work for home confinement services.
The minimum requirement for all services will be satisfied by the Government with both male and female offenders. For Home Con-finement services, male and female quantities are combined for a total minimum guarantee and a total maximum which can be com-prised of either males or females. For In-house RRC services, contractor shall ensure 17 (max) beds are available for males and 2 (max) beds are available for females.
Offerors are advised that all usage amounts above the guaranteed minimum during the base period are estimates only. These estimates above the guaranteed minimum are not a representation by the Government to the offeror that the estimated quantities will be required or ordered, or that conditions affecting the requirement will be stable. These estimates above the guaranteed minimum do not consti-tute a Bureau of Prisons usage guarantee or a guarantee of revenue to the offeror. Payment shall be made for actual consumption/us-age.
Pursuant to FAR 17.203(b) and (d), the Government's evaluation shall be inclusive of options and offerors may offer varying prices for options.
Services are required to be provided in accordance with Part I, Section C, the Statement of Work, with documentation as required.

G.6 CPARS Contractor Evaluation Factors and Rating Descriptions
Contractor performance will be assessed using seven (7) evaluation factors as follows:
FACTOR: ACCOUNTABILITY
Has the contractor ensured that offenders are accurately accounted for while (1) in the facility; (2) at work assignments; (3) in all other activities outside the facility? Is the approach tailored to the geographic area? Have there been any patterns or unresolved breaches of accountability during this rating period? Have you discussed the strengths and weaknesses, and the effectiveness of any corrective ac-tions?
FACTOR: PROGRAMS
Does the contractor have a process for assessing the individual needs of each offender to assist with their reentry into the community?
Has the contractor initiated the Transitional Skills Journaling program? How well does the contractor administer the program? How effective has the process been this rating period in assisting offenders to find employment and housing, and to develop skills to pre-pare the offender for reentry and prevent them from returning to a criminal lifestyle? How effective and extensive is the community resources network? What are the methods or avenues taken to obtain medical or mental health treatment? Have you discussed the strengths and weaknesses, and the effectiveness of any corrective actions?
FACTOR: COMMUNITY RELATIONS
Does the contractor have a process for educating and interacting with the local community in order to acquire and maintain public support? What efforts have been made during this rating period to foster positive community relations? Discuss the workings and make-up of the contractor's community relations efforts. During this rating period have there been any concerns relating to the con-tractor's position in the community? Have you discussed the strengths and weaknesses, and the effectiveness of any corrective actions?
FACTOR: SITE VALIDITY AND SUITABILITY
During this rating period, has the contractor complied with all applicable local, state, and national health, safety, environmental laws, regulations, Executive Orders, and building codes? Has the contractor maintained appropriate liability insurance? Are there any new areas of public concern within a ½ mile radius of the facility? Are zoning and occupancy permits still valid? Is the contractor's sanita-tion plan and maintenance plan effective? Have you discussed the strengths and weaknesses, and the effectiveness of any corrective actions?
FACTOR: PERSONNEL
How effective has the contractor been in ensuring competent staff have been recruited, trained, and retained? Have staff met the annual training requirements? Are new staff receiving orientation in accordance with SOW requirements? Have new staff received
15BRRC19R00000097 Page 12 of 46 and signed for integrity guidelines? Are there any concerns involving staff integrity? Have you discussed the strengths and weaknesses, and the effectiveness of any corrective actions?
FACTOR: COMMUNICATION/RESPONSIVENESS
Communication: During the rating period, has the contractor maintained open lines of communication with Bureau staff? Does the contractor establish and maintain effective communication with U.S. Probation and local authorities?
Responsiveness: Is the contractor responsive to Bureau requirements, directions, and requests for information? How well does the contractor deal with significant incidents? Have you discussed the strengths and weaknesses, and the effectiveness of any corrective actions?
FACTOR: HOME CONFINEMENT
How effective has the contractor been in ensuring that all residents are appropriately referred and placed on home confinement as soon as eligible and appropriate? How well does the contractor administer the home confinement program? Has the contractor ensured that offenders are accurately accounted for while on home confinement ? How effective has the process been this rating period in assisting offenders to find employment and to develop skills to prepare the offender for reentry and prevent them from returning to a criminal lifestyle? How effective and extensive is the community resources network? What are the methods or avenues taken to obtain medical or mental health treatment? Are inmates in the Home Confinement Program offered case management and programming opportunities consistent with their program plan and needs? Have you discussed the strengths and weaknesses, and the effectiveness of any correct-ive actions?
The Government shall consider both positive and negative attributes in the areas above and provide a written narrative for each that describes the contractor's strengths and weaknesses, and the effectiveness of any corrective actions, during each of the contract's re-porting periods (generally, a one year term beginning with the start of the Base Period). Strengths equate to performance that exceeds contract requirements and show definite and measurable benefit to the Government. Weaknesses equate to performance problems that do not meet contract requirements and result in negative impact on the Government. The CPAR will include all information from fa-cility monitoring reports and any corrective actions taken by the contractor and the effectiveness of those corrective actions taken. All applicable information up to and including the close of each monitoring conducted during the specified rating period will be included in the narrative.
Based on the narrative, an adjectival rating will be assigned to each factor. Once all factors have been rated, the overall rating will be an objective rating that most accurately reflects the overall performance of the facility. In CPARS, the overall rating will be denoted as "Quality of Product or Service." The Government will provide a detailed explanation outlining the justification for the overall rating.
In accordance with FAR Part 42, the contractor will be given an opportunity to submit comments, rebutting statements, or additional information in response to an evaluation in CPARS. The ultimate conclusion on the performance evaluation is the decision of the Government.
The ratings and associated descriptions for the factors above are as follows:
Exceptional: Contractor's performance exceeds requirements of the contract in many areas. Benefits to the Government/Bureau of Prisons (BOP) are identifiable. Minor problems may exist. Corrective actions are highly effective.
Very Good: Contractor's performance meets requirements of the contract and exceeds requirements in some areas. Benefits to the Government/BOP are identifiable. Problems may exist, but are minor. Corrective actions are effective.
Satisfactory: Contractor's performance meets contract requirements. Some minor problems exist, but the contractor has satisfactory corrective actions in place.
Marginal: Contractor's performance does not meet some of the requirements of the contract. Contractor's performance has shown there are problems resulting in a negative impact on service delivery (a negative impact on the Government). Problems are serious, but re-covery is still possible. Corrective actions have shown to be marginally effective and/or not fully implemented.
Unsatisfactory: Contractor's performance fails to meet most of the requirements of the contract. Contractor's performance shows there are problems resulting in a negative impact on service delivery (a negative impact on the Government). Problems are serious, and recovery is unlikely. Corrective actions are ineffective and/or not fully implemented.

The proof shall be a signed copy of each notification sent via registered or certified mail to the Chief Executive Officer of the law en-forcement agency and two levels of public officials of the geographical area in which the new facility is located. The notification shall provide an accurate description of the program services the contractor provides under their contract to include, but not limited to, the contractor's mission statement; the size of the new facility; the specific address location of the new facility; the type of offender the Statement of Work indicates will be placed at the new facility; and the contractor's inmate accountability practices.
[The offerors shall use the mandatory Sample Community Notification Letter in Section J, Attachment 5, when notifying the above-mentioned officials.]
(c) Subsequent to award the contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) advising of any request to change facility locations. The Bureau of Prisons will inspect the contractor's place of performance to ensure compliance with the Safety and Sanitation requirements of the Statement of Work. The contractor will be advised of identified areas of non-compliance and will be re-quired to correct the non-compliant areas in accordance with the Statement of Work and reasonable guidance provided by the COR. If the place of performance is not in compliance by the established performance date, the contract may be terminated for default.
(d) The contractor, when requesting a change in performance location, is required to provide proof of zoning. This proof shall be provided with the initial request to change locations.
(e) The initial request to change performance sites will be made to the COR. The request shall be in writing and accompanied by the following documentation: (1) proof of right to use; (2) proof of zoning; (3) proof of law enforcement/ geopolitical notification; and (4) evidence that the Bureau of Prisons will receive some benefit for modifying the contract to change the place of performance.
The Contracting Officer, with the assistance of Legal Counsel and the COR, shall determine whether substantial evidence of proper zoning and other ordinance or regulatory compliance has been provided by the Contractor. The contractor's failure to provide satis-factory proof may result in termination of the contract for default.
For purposes of this provision, a "necessary local official" means an employed or elected person whose opinion, approval, or con-currence as to the propriety of the use of proposed sites is required under any and all applicable laws of the city, town, village, or municipality in which the RRC is to be located.
H.3 Protected Religious Activities
Protected Religious Activities. Religious exercise can come up in Residential Reentry Centers (RRC's) in a variety of ways and is governed by the Department's regulation guaranteeing "Equal Treatment For Faith-Based Organizations" [28 CFR 38.1(b)], as well as by federal constitutional and statutory law.
(1) An offender may ask for a time and place to individually pray, study, or worship. Federal law requires that a federally funded Contractor allow offenders in an RRC reasonably frequent opportunity to engage on their own in these "inherently religious activit-ies" throughout the week.
(2) An offender may ask an RRC staff to lead or join him or her in inherently religious activity. If an offender in an RRC makes such a request, Contractor staff may accommodate the request when such activity would not interfere with the contracted services, when the religious activity occurs in a separate time or location from the services provided under the contract and if attendance or par-ticipation by offenders and staff is voluntary. A separate location does not need to be a separate building but must be an area that, at the time of religious activity, is not being used to provide services under the contract and is not otherwise open to the offender popula-tion.
(3) An RRC Contractor may offer inherently religious services to offenders outside of, and in addition to, its contract with the Gov-ernment as long as the services are offered in a separate time or location (as defined above in paragraph 2) from the services provided under the contract and if attendance or participation by offenders is voluntary. For example, the BOP permits but would not reim-
15BRRC19R00000097 Page 14 of 46 burse a contractor to provide offenders with a chaplain to assist offenders who request spiritual counsel, prayer, instruction from a sac-red text, or the opportunity to worship. Unless specifically requested in the solicitation, such services should not be included as part of a proposal and will not be considered in the evaluation process.

52.24-403-70 Notice of Contractor Personnel Security Requirements (OCT 2005)
15BRRC19R00000097 Page 19 of 46
Compliance with Homeland Security Presidential Directive-12 (HSPD-12) and Federal Information Processing Standard Publication 201 (FIPS 201) 1 entitled "Personal Identification Verification (PIV) for Federal Employees and Contractors," Phase I.
1. Long Term Contractor Personnel:
In order to be compliant with HSPD-12/PIV I, the following investigative requirements must be met for each new long term 2 contractor employee whose background investigation (BI) process begins on or after October 27, 2005:
a. Contractor Personnel must present two forms of identification in original form prior to badge issuance (acceptable documents are listed in Form I-9, OMB No. 1615-0047, "Employment Eligibility Verification," and at least one document must be a valid State or Federal government issued picture ID);
b. Contractor Personnel must appear in person at least once before a DOJ official who is responsible for checking the identification documents. This identity proofing must be completed sometime during the clearance process but prior to badge issuance and must be documented by the DOJ official;
c. Contractor Personnel must undergo a BI commensurate with the designated risk level associated with the duties of each position.
Outlined below are the minimum BI requirements for each risk level:
• High Risk -Background Investigation (5 year scope)
• Moderate Risk -Limited Background Investigation (LBI) or Minimum Background Investigation (MBI)
• Low Risk -National Agency Check with Inquiries (NACI) investigation
d. The pre-appointment BI waiver requirements for all position sensitivity levels are a: 1) Favorable review of the security question-naire form; 2) Favorable fingerprint results; 3) Favorable credit report, if required;3 4) Waiver request memorandum, including both the Office of Personnel Management schedule date and position sensitivity/risk level; and 5) Favorable review of the National Agency Check (NAC) 4 portion of the applicable BI that is determined by position sensitivity/risk level. A badge may be issued following approval of the above waiver requirements. If the NAC is not received within five days of OPM's scheduling date, the badge can be issued based on a favorable review of the Security Questionnaire and the Federal Bureau of Investigation Criminal History Check (i.e., fingerprint check results).
e. Badge re-validation will occur once the investigation is completed and favorably adjudicated. If the BI results so justify, badges is-sued under these procedures will be suspended or revoked.
2. Short Term Contractor Personnel: It is the policy of the DOJ that short term contractors having access to DOJ information systems and/or DOJ facilities or space for six months or fewer are subject to the identity proofing requirements listed in items 1a. and 1b.
above. The pre-appointment waiver requirements for short term contractors are:
a. Favorable review of the security questionnaire form; b. Favorable fingerprint results; c. Favorable credit report, if required;5 and d.
Waiver request memorandum indicating both the position sensitivity/risk level and the duration of the appointment. The commen-surate BI does not need to be initiated. A badge may be issued following approval of the above waiver requirements and the badge will expire six months from the date of issuance. This process can only be used once for a short term contractor in a twelve month period. This will ensure that any consecut-ive short term appointments are subject to the full PIV-I identity proofing process.
For example, if a contractor employee requires daily access for a three or four week period, this contractor would be cleared according to the above short term requirements. However, if a second request is submitted for the same contractor employee within a twelve month period for the purpose of extending the initial contract or for employment under a totally different contract for another three or four week period, this contractor would now be considered "long term" and must be cleared according to the long term re-quirements as stated in this interim policy.
3. Intermittent Contractors: An exception to the above mentioned short term requirements would be intermittent contractors.
a. For purposes of this policy, "intermittent" is defined as those contractor employees needing access to DOJ information systems and/ or DOJ facilities or space for a maximum of one day per week, regardless of the duration of the required intermittent access. For example, the water delivery contractor that delivers water one time each week and is working on a one year contract.
b. Contractors requiring intermittent access should follow the Department's escort policy. Please reference the August 11, 2004, and January 29, 2001, Department Security Officer policy memoranda that conveys the requirements for contractor facility escorted access.
c. Due to extenuating circumstances, if a component requests unescorted access or DOJ IT system access for an intermittent contract-or, the same pre-employment background investigation waiver requirements that apply to short term contractors are required.
d. If an intermittent contractor is approved for unescorted access, the contractor will only be issued a daily badge. The daily badge will be issued upon entrance into a DOJ facility or space and must be returned upon exiting the same facility or space.
e. If an intermittent contractor is approved for unescorted access, the approval will not exceed one year. If the intermittent contractor requires unescorted access beyond one year, the contractor will need to be re-approved each year.
4. An individual transferring from another department or agency shall not be re-adjudicated provided the individual has a current (within the last five years), favorably adjudicated BI meeting HSPD-12 and DOJ's BI requirements.
5. The DOJ's current escorted contractor policy remains unchanged by this acquisition notice.
Notes:
1. FIPS 201 is available at: www.csrc.nist.gov/publications/fips/fips201/FIPS-201-022505.pdf
2. Under HSPD-12, long term contractors are contractors having access to DOJ information systems and/or DOJ facilities or space for six months or longer. The PIV-I identity proofing process, including initiation and adjudication of the required background investiga-tion, is required for all new long term contractors regardless of whether it is the current practice to issue a badge. The second phase of HSPD-12 implementation (PIV-II) requires badge issuance to all affected long-term contractors.
3. For contractors in position sensitivity/risk levels above level 1, a favorable review of a credit check is required as part of the pre-appointment waiver package.
4. In order to avoid a delay in the hiring process, components should request an Advance NAC Report when initiating investigations to OPM. Per OPM ' s instructions, to obtain an Advance NAC Report, a Code " 3" must be placed in block " B " of the " Agency Use Only " section of the investigative form. This report is available for all case types.
5. For contractors in position sensitivity/risk levels above level 1, a favorable review of a credit check is required as part of the pre-
15BRRC19R00000097 Page 20 of 46 appointment waiver package.
