A. GENERAL

A.1 The U.S. Embassy in Brussels, Belgium, requires mobile telephone and data services for the U.S. Mission to Belgium. This includes services for the U.S. Embassy to Belgium, the U.S. Mission to the European Union, the U.S. Mission to NATO, the Customs and Border Protection office in Antwerp, the European Logistics Support Office in Antwerp, and any other agencies officially recognized as part of the Tri-Mission Brussels. The Contractor shall deliver these services in compliance with the specifications outlined in the Statement of Work (SOW).

A.2 This is a firm-fixed price Indefinite-Delivery Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract. The firm-fixed price shall include all labor, materials, equipment, overhead, profit, insurance (see FAR 52.228-4 and 52.228-5), and transportation necessary to deliver the required services. No additional sums will be payable on account of any escalation in the cost of transportation, general liability insurance or labor, or because of the Contractor's failure to properly estimate or accurately predict the cost, or difficulty in achieving the results required by this contract. The contract price will not be adjusted because of fluctuations in currency exchange rates.

Changes in the contract price, or time to complete, will be made only for changes made by the Government in the work to be performed, or by delays caused by the Government. Any costs not priced will be considered to be included in the overhead and other indirect costs.

A.3 This is an IDIQ type of contract against which task orders may be placed. The quantities set forth in the pricing section are estimates; the Government does not guarantee that such quantities will be ordered. The contract will be for a one-year period from the date of the Notice to Proceed (NTP), with four (4) one-year options. The performance period is set to commence on December 1, 2024.

A.4 The general liability policy required of the Contractor shall name “the United States of America” as additional insured. The general liability insurance shall be as required by law or as ordinarily obtained in the location of the work. The limit of such insurance shall be as provided by law or sufficient to meet normal and customary claims. The Contractor agrees that the Government shall not be responsible for personal injuries or for damages to Government’s property in Contractor’s custody, any property of the Contractor, its officers, agents, servants, and employees, or any other person, arising from, and incident to, the Contractor's performance of the work detailed herein. The Contractor shall hold harmless and indemnify the Government from any and all claims arising therefrom, except in the instance of gross negligence on the part of the Government. The Contractor shall submit evidence of general liability insurance within 15 calendar days after award.

A.5 Minimum and Maximum Amounts: During life of this contract, the Government shall place orders totaling a minimum of $500.00 or local currency equivalent. This reflects the contract minimum for this period of performance. The amount of all orders shall not exceed $2,500,000.00 or local currency equivalent, which reflects the contract maximum.

B. PRICING

B.1 The currency shall be fixed and cannot be changed by modification to the contract.

B.2 VALUE ADDED TAX (VAT)

If applicable, the Contractor shall be responsible for paying to the appropriate authority the applicable rate of Value Added Tax (VAT). Offerors shall identify the VAT as a separate line item. VAT shall also be a separate cost item on all invoices submitted against task orders under the resulting contract.

If the Contractor receives a VAT refund from the host government, he shall repay the refund amount to the U.S. Government.

B.3 DEFENSE BASE ACT (DBA) INSURANCE

The Department of Labor has waived the DBA insurance for the countries in paragraph (b) of this subsection.

The DOL has waived DBA insurance for the following countries of performance under this contract: https://www.dol.gov/owcp/ dlhwc/dbawaivers/dbawaivers.htm:

Belgium is listed on the DOL Active DBA Waiver list and therefore DBA insurance for Host Country Nationals (HCNs) and Third Country Nationals (TCNs), performing under this contract is not required. However, DBA Insurance for U.S. citizens and individuals hired in the United States (regardless of citizenship) performing under this contract is required.

The Contractor will be reimbursed for DBA insurance only to the extent the contractor provides documentary proof that DBA insurance has been paid and only to the extent quoted in CLINs 0016, 1016, 2016, 3016 and 4016.

DESCRIPTION/SPECIFICATIONS/WORK STATEMENT

C. STATEMENT OF WORK

C.1 INTRODUCTION

The U.S. Embassy Brussels in Belgium requires mobile telephone and data services for approximately between 600 and 1,000 unique service lines. The Contractor is responsible for providing mobile telephone and data services to the U.S. Mission to Belgium, which includes the U.S. Embassy to Belgium, the U.S. Mission to the European Union, the U.S. Mission to NATO, the Customs and Border Protection office in Antwerp, the European Logistics Support Office in Antwerp, and any other agencies recognized as part of the Tri-Mission Brussels. Services should cover calls within the European Union (EU), the European Economic Area (EES), including Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Norway, as well as Switzerland and the United Kingdom (UK). Additionally, the Contractor shall ensure access to 3G, 4G, and 5G (when available) mobile networks within the EU, EES, and UK, and provide the capability to share data across multiple devices from a single account.

The Contractor shall ensure that the connection through its network is of the highest quality possible and shall be uninterrupted, clear, and with no static. Network problems shall be remedied immediately, and the COR must be immediately informed of any problems and their resolution.

The services to be provided include:

• International Calls

• International Roaming

• Wireless Application Protocol (WAP)

• SMS Messaging

• Voice Mail

• 24-hour Customer Service

• Detailed Billing of Calls Made

• Data Services

• Data Sharing

• eSIM upon request

C.2 CALLS WITHIN THE EUROPEAN UNION (EU), ICELAND, LIECHTENSTEIN, AND NORWAY (EES), SWITZERLAND AND THE UNITED KINGDOM (UK)

The Contractor shall ensure on a 24-hour basis at least 90% local network coverage (3G, 4G, and 5G as available) around the European Union (EU), Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Norway (EES), Switzerland and the United Kingdom (UK) with special consideration to all urban areas and main traffic routes.

C.3 INTERNATIONAL CALLS

The Contractor shall ensure on a 24-hour basis international connectivity with the U.S. and all other worldwide countries where telephone services are available.

C.4 INTERNATIONAL ROAMING

The Contractor shall provide as extensive international roaming connectivity as possible, with the special interest of the Government for roaming within the U.S.

The Contractor shall provide an up-to-date listing of roaming agreements for Voice, SMS/MMS, and Data for all countries that it has roaming agreements with. If possible, provide this list via a website that can be accessed publicly.

C.5 WIRELESS APPLICATION PROTOCOL (WAP)

The Contractor shall provide Internet connection through their network to the Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) Internet sites.

C.6 SMS MESSAGING

The Contractor shall provide access to around the clock SMS messaging.

C.7 VOICE MAIL

The Contractor shall provide Voice Mail services in English, French, and Dutch Language. A Voice Mail Box shall be prepared for each number separately as per standard practice.

Optional: Voice Messages should be transcribed and delivered via SMS message or email.

C.8 IN-BUILDING COVERAGE

The Contractor shall ensure adequate network coverage at all U.S. Government facilities in Belgium. Any special improvements required will be provided by the Contractor at no additional expense to the U.S. Government.

A list of all U.S. Government Facilities will be furnished to the Contractor upon request.

C.9 OVERAGE NOTIFICATIONS

In accordance with U.S. procurement law, strict penalties are imposed on embassy personnel who create unauthorized commitments of U.S. Government funds. To mitigate this risk, the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) assigned to this contract must have timely access to data to control and prevent overage fees or other unauthorized costs.

The Contracting Officer and their designated Representative shall be the sole individuals authorized by the Contractor to request the activation or deactivation of any services rendered under this contract. Similarly, only these individuals may request the addition or removal of features that incur costs, such as adjustments to a user’s base tariff, modifications to monthly service commitments, or the activation and deactivation of roaming services.

Should an embassy employee utilize services under this contract resulting in potential unauthorized costs, the Contractor is required to provide prompt notification to both the employee and the COR(s). The notice must be clear enough to help the employee minimize the risk of their actions and assist the COR in quickly identifying the employee and/or devices that triggered the report.

The Contractor must provide at least one example of such notifications, demonstrating how they would be received by both the end-user and the COR.

Additionally, the Contractor shall issue a clear notification to both the cellular services end-user and the COR before any overage fees are incurred.

Example Scenario 1: If an embassy-issued iPhone user is allotted 60 minutes of free call time to the U.S., they should receive an alert via SMS or another method both before and after exceeding that amount. A simultaneous notification should also be sent to the Embassy’s COR overseeing this contract.

Example Scenario 2: For a data-only SIM used in an Internet of Things (IoT) device with a 25GB data limit, notifications should be sent before and after exceeding the allotted data. In cases where the device cannot receive or properly interpret SMS messages, the Contractor must ensure that notifications are sent concurrently to the Embassy’s COR.

The Contractor must also provide clear warnings to both the end-user and the COR if a cellular device is used with roaming enabled and the following occur:

• Roaming fees begin to accrue;

• Roaming fees are approaching a specified limit (e.g., the typical $50.00 cut-off); or

• Roaming fees exceed that limit.

Example Scenario: If a user with an embassy-issued SIM in their iPhone travels to the United States and neglects to select a data roaming package, the Contractor must ensure that proper notifications are sent accordingly.

C.10 CUSTOMER SERVICES

The Contractor shall provide technical support for setting up voice mail, roaming questions, questions on the phone features, number changes, lost or stolen telephone reporting, manufacturer’s warranty information, and all other matters concerning the mobile telephone services through the Contractor’s Project Manager.

C.11 KEY PERSONNEL

The Project Manager must be able to converse in English and French. The Contractor shall assign to this contract the following key person:

Position Name Contact Number Project Manager

During the first 90 days of performance, the Contractor shall make no substitutions of key personnel unless the substitution is required due to illness, death, or termination of employment. The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer within 15 calendar days after the occurrence of any of these events and provide the information required below to the Contracting Officer at least 15 days before making any permanent substitutions.

After the first 90 days of performance, the Contractor may substitute a key person if the Contractor determines that it is necessary. The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer of the proposed action immediately. Prior to making the substitution, the Contractor will provide the information required below to the Contracting Officer.

The Contractor shall provide a detailed explanation of the circumstances requiring the proposed substitution, a complete resume for the proposed substitute. The proposed substitute shall possess qualifications comparable to the original key person. The Contracting Officer will notify the Contractor of its approval or disapproval of the substitution within 15 calendar days after receiving the required information. The Government will modify the contract to reflect any changes in key personnel.

C.12 GOVERNMENT FURNISHED PROPERTY

The Government intends to use Government Owned Equipment and Accessories as listed below:

• iPhone 10, 11, 12, 13, and current models as released.

• Samsung Galaxy 10, 20, 21, 22, 23, and current models as released.

• iPad 3rd generation and later

The Contractor shall provide a fully functional SIM card (and/or an eSIM depending on the request) and telephone number for all existing Government mobile devices.

The Government shall keep all existing cellular phone numbers. The Contractor shall undertake all necessary steps to ensure that existing phone numbers are transferred if the Contractor is not the incumbent.

C.13 ADDITION OF NEW LINES

The Contractor will provide a fully functional SIM card (or eSIM), telephone number, and appropriate security codes to the COR within 48 hours after receiving a delivery order under the contract.

C.14 NON-OFFICIAL LINES

This Contract is valid only for official Government needs.

C.15 DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION

Any information made available to the Contractor by the Government shall be used only for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this contract and shall not be divulged or made known in any manner to any person except as may be necessary in the performance of the contract.

C.16 TECHNOLOGICAL REFRESHMENT

After contract award, the Government may; pursuant to FAR 52.212-4(c) Contract Terms and Conditions – Commercial Products and Commercial Services; request changes within the scope of the contract. These changes may be required to improve performance or react to changes in technology.

The Contractor may propose for the Government’s technological refreshment, substitutions or additions for any provided products or services that may become available as a result of technological improvements. The Government may, at any time during the term of this contract or any extensions thereof, modify the contract to acquire products which are similar to those under the contract and that the Contractor has, or has not, formally announced for marketing purposes. This action is considered to be within the scope of the contract. At the option of the Government, a demonstration of the substitute product may be required. The Government is under no obligation to modify the contract in response to the proposed additions or substitutions.

Such substitutions or additions may include any part of, or all of, a given product(s) provided that the following conditions are met and substantiated by documentation in the technological refreshment proposal:

• The proposed product(s) shall meet all of the technical specifications of this document and conform to the terms and conditions cited in the contract.

• The proposed product(s) shall have the capacity, performance, or functional characteristics equal to or greater than, the current product(s).

• The proposal shall discuss the impact on hardware, services, and delivery schedules. The cost of the changes not specifically addressed in the proposal shall be borne entirely by the Contractor.
