Section 3 - Contract Clauses

52.212-4 Contract Terms and Conditions--Commercial Items (Jan 2017)

(a) Inspection/Acceptance. The Contractor shall only tender for acceptance those items that conform to the requirements of this con-tract. The Government reserves the right to inspect or test any supplies or services that have been tendered for acceptance. The Gov-ernment may require repair or replacement of nonconforming supplies or reperformance of nonconforming services at no increase in contract price. If repair/replacement or reperformance will not correct the defects or is not possible, the Government may seek an equitable price reduction or adequate consideration for acceptance of nonconforming supplies or services. The Government must exer-cise its post-acceptance rights--

(1) Within a reasonable time after the defect was discovered or should have been discovered; and

(2) Before any substantial change occurs in the condition of the item, unless the change is due to the defect in the item.

(b) Assignment. The Contractor or its assignee may assign its rights to receive payment due as a result of performance of this contract to a bank, trust company, or other financing institution, including any Federal lending agency in accordance with the Assignment of Claims Act (31 U.S.C. 3727). However, when a third party makes payment (e.g., use of the Governmentwide commercial purchase card), the Contractor may not assign its rights to receive payment under this contract.

(c) Changes. Changes in the terms and conditions of this contract may be made only by written agreement of the parties.

(d) Disputes. This contract is subject to 41 U.S.C. chapter 71, Contract Disputes. Failure of the parties to this contract to reach agree-ment on any request for equitable adjustment, claim, appeal or action arising under or relating to this contract shall be a dispute to be resolved in accordance with the clause at FAR 52.233-1, Disputes, which is incorporated herein by reference. The Contractor shall proceed diligently with performance of this contract, pending final resolution of any dispute arising under the contract.

(e) Definitions. The clause at FAR 52.202-1, Definitions, is incorporated herein by reference.

(f) Excusable delays. The Contractor shall be liable for default unless nonperformance is caused by an occurrence beyond the reason-able control of the Contractor and without its fault or negligence such as, acts of God or the public enemy, acts of the Government in either its sovereign or contractual capacity, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, unusually severe weather, and delays of common carriers. The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer in writing as soon as it is reasonably possible after the commencement of any excusable delay, setting forth the full particulars in connection therewith, shall remedy such occurrence with all reasonable dispatch, and shall promptly give written notice to the Contracting Officer of the cessation of such occurrence.

(g) Invoice.

(1) The Contractor shall submit an original invoice and three copies (or electronic invoice, if authorized) to the address designated in the contract to receive invoices. An invoice must include--

(i) Name and address of the Contractor;

(x) Electronic funds transfer (EFT) banking information.

(A) The Contractor shall include EFT banking information on the invoice only if required elsewhere in this contract.

(C) EFT banking information is not required if the Government waived the requirement to pay by EFT.

(2) Invoices will be handled in accordance with the Prompt Payment Act (31 U.S.C. 3903) and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) prompt payment regulations at 5 CFR Part 1315.

(h) Patent indemnity. The Contractor shall indemnify the Government and its officers, employees and agents against liability, includ-ing costs, for actual or alleged direct or contributory infringement of, or inducement to infringe, any United States or foreign patent, trademark or copyright, arising out of the performance of this contract, provided the Contractor is reasonably notified of such claims and proceedings.

(i) Payment.--

(1) Items accepted. Payment shall be made for items accepted by the Government that have been delivered to the delivery destinations set forth in this contract.

(2) Prompt payment. The Government will make payment in accordance with the Prompt Payment Act (31 U.S.C. 3903) and prompt payment regulations at 5 CFR Part 1315.

(3) Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT). If the Government makes payment by EFT, see 52.212-5(b) for the appropriate EFT clause.

(4) Discount. In connection with any discount offered for early payment, time shall be computed from the date of the invoice. For the purpose of computing the discount earned, payment shall be considered to have been made on the date which appears on the payment check or the specified payment date if an electronic funds transfer payment is made.

(5) Overpayments. If the Contractor becomes aware of a duplicate contract financing or invoice payment or that the Government has otherwise overpaid on a contract financing or invoice payment, the Contractor shall--

(C) Affected line item or subline item, if applicable; and

(ii) The Government may issue a demand for payment to the Contractor upon finding a debt is due under the contract.

(iii) Final decisions. The Contracting Officer will issue a final decision as required by 33.211 if--

(B) The date of the first written demand for payment, including any demand for payment resulting from a default termination.

(vi) The interest charge shall be computed for the actual number of calendar days involved beginning on the due date and ending on--

(B) The date of issuance of a Government check to the Contractor from which an amount otherwise payable has been withheld as a credit against the contract debt; or

(C) The date on which an amount withheld and applied to the contract debt would otherwise have become payable to the Contractor.

(vii) The interest charge made under this clause may be reduced under the procedures prescribed in 32.608-2 of the Federal Acquisi-tion Regulation in effect on the date of this contract.

(j) Risk of loss. Unless the contract specifically provides otherwise, risk of loss or damage to the supplies provided under this contract shall remain with the Contractor until, and shall pass to the Government upon:

(k) Taxes. The contract price includes all applicable Federal, State, and local taxes and duties.

(l) Termination for the Government's convenience. The Government reserves the right to terminate this contract, or any part hereof, for its sole convenience. In the event of such termination, the Contractor shall immediately stop all work hereunder and shall immediately cause any and all of its suppliers and subcontractors to cease work. Subject to the terms of this contract, the Contractor shall be paid a percentage of the contract price reflecting the percentage of the work performed prior to the notice of termination, plus reasonable charges the Contractor can demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Government using its standard record keeping system, have resulted from the termination. The Contractor shall not be required to comply with the cost accounting standards or contract cost principles for this purpose. This paragraph does not give the Government any right to audit the Contractor's records. The Contractor shall not be paid for any work performed or costs incurred which reasonably could have been avoided.

(m) Termination for cause. The Government may terminate this contract, or any part hereof, for cause in the event of any default by the Contractor, or if the Contractor fails to comply with any contract terms and conditions, or fails to provide the Government, upon request, with adequate assurances of future performance. In the event of termination for cause, the Government shall not be liable to the Contractor for any amount for supplies or services not accepted, and the Contractor shall be liable to the Government for any and all rights and remedies provided by law. If it is determined that the Government improperly terminated this contract for default, such termination shall be deemed a termination for convenience.

(o) Warranty. The Contractor warrants and implies that the items delivered hereunder are merchantable and fit for use for the particu-lar purpose described in this contract.

(p) Limitation of liability. Except as otherwise provided by an express warranty, the Contractor will not be liable to the Government for consequential damages resulting from any defect or deficiencies in accepted items.

(q) Other compliances. The Contractor shall comply with all applicable Federal, State and local laws, executive orders, rules and regu-lations applicable to its performance under this contract.

(r) Compliance with laws unique to Government contracts.

15JE1R18Q00000002 Page 7 of 67

(s) Order of precedence. Any inconsistencies in this solicitation or contract shall be resolved by giving precedence in the following or-der:

(1) The schedule of supplies/services.

(2) The Assignments, Disputes, Payments, Invoice, Other Compliances, Compliance with Laws Unique to Government Contracts, and Unauthorized Obligations paragraphs of this clause;

(3) The clause at 52.212-5.

(4) Addenda to this solicitation or contract, including any license agreements for computer software.

(5) Solicitation provisions if this is a solicitation.

(6) Other paragraphs of this clause.

(7) The Standard Form 1449.

(8) Other documents, exhibits, and attachments.

(9) The specification.

(t) System for Award Management (SAM).

(1) Unless exempted by an addendum to this contract, the Contractor is responsible during performance and through final payment of any contract for the accuracy and completeness of the data within the SAM database, and for any liability resulting from the Govern-ment's reliance on inaccurate or incomplete data. To remain registered in the SAM database after the initial registration, the Contractor is required to review and update on an annual basis from the date of initial registration or subsequent updates its information in the SAM database to ensure it is current, accurate and complete. Updating information in the SAM does not alter the terms and conditions of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed contractual document.

(2)(i) If a Contractor has legally changed its business name, "doing business as" name, or division name (whichever is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets used in performing the contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements regarding novation and change-of-name agreements in FAR subpart 42.12, the Contractor shall provide the responsible Contracting Officer a minimum of one business day's written notification of its intention to (A) change the name in the SAM database; (B) comply with the requirements of subpart 42.12; and (C) agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the responsible Contracting Of-ficer. The Contractor must provide with the notification sufficient documentation to support the legally changed name.

(ii) If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (t)(2)(i) of this clause, or fails to perform the agreement at paragraph (t)(2)(i)(C) of this clause, and, in the absence of a properly executed novation or change-of-name agreement, the SAM in-formation that shows the Contractor to be other than the Contractor indicated in the contract will be considered to be incorrect inform-ation within the meaning of the "Suspension of Payment" paragraph of the electronic funds transfer (EFT) clause of this contract.

(3) The Contractor shall not change the name or address for EFT payments or manual payments, as appropriate, in the SAM record to reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims (see subpart 32.8, Assignment of Claims). Assignees shall be separately re-gistered in the SAM database. Information provided to the Contractor's SAM record that indicates payments, including those made by EFT, to an ultimate recipient other than that Contractor will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the "Sus-pension of payment" paragraph of the EFT clause of this contract.

(4) Offerors and Contractors may obtain information on registration and annual confirmation requirements via SAM accessed through https://www.acquisition.gov.

(u) Unauthorized Obligations

(1) Except as stated in paragraph (u)(2) of this clause, when any supply or service acquired under this contract is subject to any End User License Agreement (EULA), Terms of Service (TOS), or similar legal instrument or agreement, that includes any clause requir-ing the Government to indemnify the Contractor or any person or entity for damages, costs, fees, or any other loss or liability that would create an Anti-Deficiency Act violation (31 U.S.C. 1341), the following shall govern:

(i) Any such clause is unenforceable against the Government.

(ii) Neither the Government nor any Government authorized end user shall be deemed to have agreed to such clause by virtue of it ap-pearing in the EULA, TOS, or similar legal instrument or agreement. If the EULA, TOS, or similar legal instrument or agreement is invoked through an "I agree" click box or other comparable mechanism (e.g., "click-wrap" or "browse-wrap" agreements), execution does not bind the Government or any Government authorized end user to such clause.

15JE1R18Q00000002 Page 8 of 67

(iii) Any such clause is deemed to be stricken from the EULA, TOS, or similar legal instrument or agreement.

(2) Paragraph (u)(1) of this clause does not apply to indemnification by the Government that is expressly authorized by statute and specifically authorized under applicable agency regulations and procedures.

(v) Incorporation by reference. The Contractor's representations and certifications, including those completed electronically via the System for Award Management (SAM), are incorporated by reference into the contract.

(End of clause)

Clauses By Full Text

Statement of Work

I. PURPOSE

The purpose of the Legal Orientation Program for Expedited Removal (LOPE) is to improve judicial efficiency and assist all parties in the expedited removal process and adult detained removal proceeding – unrepresented detained adults, the Executive Office for Im-migration Review (EOIR) Immigration Court, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), United States Immigration and Citizen-ship Services (USCIS), and the detention facility. The LOPE accomplishes this by informing detained respondents appearing before USCIS Asylum Officers or the EOIR Immigration Court on the adjudicating agency’s practices, procedures, available legal options and other relevant resources. The Contractor will provide LOPE services for detained adult aliens who are, or may be, placed in the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) expedited removal process and/or EOIR Immigration Court proceedings at the Tallahatchie Asylum Staging Center (TASC), Tutwiler, MS.

II. PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE

The period of performance for the below site is 90 calendar days from date of award. The Government anticipates making an award by January 1st, 2019. Upon mutual agreement of the Government and the Contractor, the parties may exercise one option to extend the period of performance by 30 calendar days.

III. PLACES OF PERFORMANCE

The Contractor shall provide services at the following location:

1. Tallahatchie Asylum Staging Center (TASC) a.k.a. Tallahatchie County Correctional Facility, 415 U.S. Highway 49 North, Tutwiler, MS 38963

The Government, on a case-by-case basis, may authorize the use of virtual teleconferencing (VTC) or teleconferencing. The Contract-or will be notified if VTC or teleconferencing is available and permissible.

IV. SCOPE

The Contractor shall provide the following services:

(1) Coordinate with the COR and on-site representatives to implement the LOPE program at the site. “On-site representatives” may include officials from ICE, USCIS, EOIR, or other individuals deemed necessary by the Contractor or the COR.

(2) Work collaboratively with governmental agencies, and other private non-profit agencies and pro bono attorneys who regularly represent aliens in removal proceedings. The Contractor shall make all reasonable efforts to maintain positive working relationships with LOPE stakeholders. At all times, the Contractor’s staff shall present a professional appearance and demeanor and shall be helpful

15JE1R18Q00000002 Page 9 of 67 and courteous to all LOPE stakeholders.

(3) Provide LOPE in-person at the site 3 to 4 days (“visits”) per week. The Contractor, with approval from the COR, may provide live LOPE services remotely via video teleconferencing (VTC) equipment or other videoconferencing or virtual technology.

(4) Provide staff for the LOPE at a total level of 1-3 Full Time Equivalents (FTE). The Contractor will staff each visit with no less than 1 bilingual Spanish and English speaker. The Contractor will staff each visit with no less than 1 licensed attorney or Department of Justice Accredited Representative with Full Accreditation.

(5) The Contractor will adhere to the site security clearance requirements as set forth by ICE and/or its contractors.

(6) Provide 1-2 Group Orientations per visit to all aliens, who are or may be placed in the expedited removal process or immigration removal proceedings (with reasonable exceptions to be approved by the COR), prior to their Credible Fear Interview before the US- CIS Asylum Office, or Credible Fear Review before an Immigration Judge. Additional Group Orientations may be provided to aliens prior to subsequent interviews or hearings. The Contractor may provide Group Orientations to aliens in other immigration removal proceedings and processes, where resources permit and as mutually agreed upon. Group Orientations will review the legal obligations of, and the range of legal options available to, aliens in the expedited removal process and/or immigration court removal proceedings, and alert these individuals to their alternatives or the lack thereof.

(7) Follow the structure of the Group Orientation as designed by the EOIR Legal Orientation Program and contained in the Legal Orientation Program Training Manual. The LOPE presenters will respond to general concerns of individuals in group question-and-answer periods held during the group orientations.

(8) Adhere to criteria and guidelines for the operation of an LOP as set forth and modified for the LOPE in the Legal Orientation Pro-gram Manual and other official program guidance issued by the COR.

(9) Conduct group orientations primarily in the Spanish and/or English languages. For non-Spanish or English language speakers, the contractor may utilize language interpreter services provided by or facilitated through the government.

(10) State at the beginning of each Group Orientation that the presenter is not the attorney or representative of the aliens, and that the views expressed by the presenter do not necessarily represent the views of EOIR, the Department of Justice, or the United States Gov-ernment. In addition, the presenter shall not, in any manner, either speak, or appear to speak, on behalf of EOIR, the Department of Justice, or the United States Government.

(11) Provide 10-30 Individual Orientations per visit when requested by unrepresented individuals. The Individual Orientations are in-tended to assist individuals in understanding their legal situations. The presenters may respond to specific concerns/questions of an in-dividual regarding matters of immigration law and procedure.
