Invoice Submission

Vendors are required to create and submit electronic invoices using the IPP system. All supporting documentation shall be uploaded into the IPP system.

Invoices must be submitted at least monthly but no more than bi-weekly. Final invoices must be submitted 30 days after the end date of the period of performance.

FBI-0030 Organizational Conflict of Interest

FBI-0030 Organizational Conflict of Interest (OCT 2024)

(a) Purpose: The purpose of this clause is to ensure that:

i. The Contractor is rendering impartial assistance and advice to the Government at all times under this contract and related Government contracts;

ii. The Contractor’s objectivity in performing work under this contract or related Government contracts is not impaired; and

iii. The Contractor does not obtain an unfair competitive advantage by virtue of its access to non-public Government information, or by virtue of its access to proprietary information belonging to others.

(b) Scope: The Organizational Conflict of Interest (OCI) rules, procedures and responsibilities described in FAR 9.5 “Organizational and Consultant Conflicts of Interest”, FAR 3.101-1 “Standards of Conduct – General, and in this clause are applicable to the prime Contractor (including any affiliates and successors-in-interest), as well as any co-sponsor, joint-venture partner, consultant, subcontractor or other entity participating in the performance of this contract. The Contractor shall flow this clause down to all subcontracts, consulting agreements, teaming agreements, or other such arrangements which have OCI concerns, while modifying the terms "contract", "Contractor", and "Contracting Officer" as appropriate to preserve the Government's rights.

(c) Access to and Use of Nonpublic Information: If in performance of this contract the contractor obtains access to nonpublic information such as plans, policies, reports, studies, financial plans, or data which has not been released or otherwise made available to the public, the Contractor agrees it shall not use such information for any private purpose or release such information without prior written approval from the Contracting Officer.

(d) Access to and Protection of Proprietary Information: The Contractor agrees to exercise due diligence to protect proprietary information from misuse or unauthorized disclosure in accordance with FAR 9.505-4. The Contractor may be requested to enter into a written non-disclosure agreement with a third party asserting proprietary restrictions, if required in the performance of the contract.

(e) In accordance with FAR 3.101-1, the Contractor shall also take all appropriate measures to prevent the existence of conflicting roles that might bias the Contractor’s judgement, give the Contractor an unfair competitive advantage, and deprive the FBI of objective advice or assistance that can result from hiring former Government employees. (See Health Net Fed. Svcs, B-401652.3).

(f) OCI Disclosures: The Contractor shall disclose to the Contracting Officer all facts relevant to the existence of an actual or potential OCI, prior to award and any time after award.

In the proposal submission, contractors must certify that they have not participated in the development of the solicitation in any capacity and must provide a list of any former FBI employees. OCI Disclosures after award must address any listed in this clause or FAR

9.5. This disclosure shall include a description of the OCI and the action the Contractor has taken or plans to take to avoid, neutralize or mitigate the OCI.

(g) Remedies and Waiver:

i. If the contractor fails to comply with any requirements of FAR 9.5, FAR 3.101-1, or this clause, the Government may terminate this contract for default, disqualify the Contractor from subsequent related contractual efforts if necessary to neutralize a resulting organizational conflict of interest, and/or pursue other remedies permitted by law or this contract. If the Contractor discovers and promptly reports an actual or potential OCI subsequent to contract award, the Contracting Officer may terminate this contract for convenience if such termination is deemed to be in the best interest of the Government or take other appropriate actions.

ii. The parties recognize that the requirements of this clause may continue to impact the contractor after contract performance is completed, and that it is impossible to foresee all future impacts. Accordingly, the Contractor may at any time seek an OCI waiver from the FBI Head of Contracting by submitting a written waiver request to the Contracting Officer. Any such request shall include a full description of the OCI and detailed rationale for the OCI waiver.

FBI – 0033 Legal Holidays, Government Dismissals and Closures, and Furlough

FBI- 0033 Legal Holidays, Government Dismissals and Closures, and Furlough (JAN 2025)

(a) Definitions

Compensated personal absence means any absence from work for reasons such as illness, vacation, holidays, jury duty, military training, or personal activities for which an employer pays compensation directly to an employee in accordance with a plan or custom of the employer.

Fringe benefits are allowances and services provided by the contractor to its employees as compensation in addition to regular wages and salaries. Fringe benefits include, but are not limited to, the cost of vacations, sick leave, holidays, military leave, employee insurance, and supplemental unemployment benefit plans. Except as provided otherwise in FAR subpart 31.2, the costs of fringe benefits are allowable to the extent that they are reasonable and are required by law, employer-employee agreement, or an established policy of the contractor.

Furlough is the placing of a contract on a temporary hold because of lack of work or funds. In the event that funds are not available through an appropriations law or continuing resolution, a “shutdown” furlough occurs. A shutdown furlough is necessary when an agency no longer has the necessary funds to operate and must shut down those activities which are not excepted pursuant to the Antideficiency Act (31 U.S.C. 1341-1342).

Holiday means any calendar day designated as a holiday by Federal Statute, Executive Order, or Presidential Proclamation.

Hours Worked ordinarily include all the time during which an employee is required to be on the employer’s premises, on duty, or at a prescribed workplace.

(b) Holidays

(1) The United States Government observes the following days as holidays:

• New Year's Day (January 1).

• Birthday of Martin Luther King, Jr. (Third Monday in January).

• Washington's Birthday (Third Monday in February).

• Memorial Day (Last Monday in May).

• Juneteenth National Independence Day (June 19).

• Independence Day (July 4).

• Labor Day (First Monday in September).

• Columbus Day (Second Monday in October).

• Veterans Day (November 11).

• Thanksgiving Day (Fourth Thursday in November).

• Christmas Day (December 25).

(2) In addition to the days designated as holidays, the Government observes the following days:

• Any other day designated by Federal Statute

• Any other day designated by an Executive Order

• Any other day designated by the President's Proclamation

(3) When New Year's Day, Juneteenth National Independence Day, Independence Day, Veterans Day or Christmas Day falls on a Sunday, the following Monday is observed;

when it falls on Saturday, the preceding Friday is observed.

(4) Observance of holidays by Government personnel shall not be cause for additional period of performance of the contract.

(5) Observance of holidays by Government personnel shall not be cause for additional compensation and are not considered hours worked by the contractor. If the contractor's employee(s) work on a holiday, no form of holiday or other premium compensation will be reimbursed either as a direct or indirect cost to this contract.

Contractors are not authorized to “make up” hours worked to compensate for observance of holidays. Compensated personal absences from work for reasons such as illness, vacation, holidays, jury duty, military training, or personal activities are absences for which an employer pays compensation directly to an employee in accordance with an employer plan or customary practices of the employer. These benefits are generally a matter of agreement between an employer and an employee (or the employee's representative).

If the contractor is required to work for mission critical requirements, the contractor will be notified by the Contracting Officer to perform work on the holiday and the work will be recognized as hours work and will be an allowable charge to the contract.

(c) Government Dismissals and Closures The FBI may issue a dismissal for closure of the government offices during emergencies, severe weather conditions, natural disasters, and other incidents or hazards that cause disruptions to Federal Government operations.

When the FBI issues a dismissal to its Government employees, assigned contractor personnel in Government facilities shall also be dismissed. For the continuity of operations, contractor personnel are required to telework at an approved alternative worksite unless the contract does not allow telework. In those instances where telework is not allowed, the contractor agrees to continue to provide sufficient personnel to perform round-the-clock requirements of critical tasks already in operation or scheduled and shall be guided by the instructions issued by the Contracting Officer or his/her duly authorized Contracting Officer Representative.

(d) Firm Fixed Price contract deductions

For fixed-price contracts, if services are not required or provided because the building is closed due to inclement weather, unanticipated holidays declared by the President, failure of Congress to appropriate funds, or similar reasons, deductions will be computed as follows:

(1) The deduction rate in dollars per day will be equal to the per month contract price divided by 21 days per month.

(2) The deduction rate in dollars per day will be multiplied by the number of days services are not required or provided. If services are provided for portions of days, appropriate adjustment will be made by the contracting officer to ensure that the contractor is compensated for services provided.

(e) Furloughs

In the event the Government goes into furlough status, the Contracting Officer will provide notification to the Contractor to either 1) continue work or 2) that the Contractor is in a furlough status and should cease work until authorized to continue. The notification from the Contracting Officer will not be provided to the contractor until the next business day following the government furlough status, no prior notifications will occur. If the contractor is authorized to continue work, the contractor is only authorized to continue work until such point that the period of performance of the contract has expired or all funding has been expended. The contractor is not authorized to perform services when funding is not available.

Contractors are not authorized to work during a furlough unless specifically directed to work by the Contracting Officer.

(f) Administrative Leave – Excusable Delays

If administrative leave is granted to contractor personnel as a result of conditions stipulated in any “Excusable Delays” clause of this contract, it will be without loss to the contractor. The cost of salaries and wages to the contractor for the period of any such excused absence shall be a reimbursable item of direct cost hereunder for employees whose regular time is normally charged, and a reimbursable item of indirect cost for employees whose time is normally charged indirectly in accordance with the contractor's accounting policy.
