GENERAL STATEMENTS OF SALES CONTRACT
Certain contents and provisions of this IFB, including Appendices, Attachments and Schedules, are described in general. The following General Statement of Public Sales Contract is not intended to be complete and does not take precedence over the specific terms and conditions of this public sales contract. The requirements for all matters discussed in the General Statement of Public Sales Contract are fully defined in the Terms and Conditions Section of this IFB. Any historical data provided in support of this IFB was derived using existing sources and is presented for general reference only.
1. Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Disposition Services (hereinafter, the “Agency”) is offering scrap for sale through this Term Sale Invitation for Bid (IFB). This is one of five Regional IFBs offering DEMIL A scrap for sale. This IFB covers the Disposal Support Directorate (DSD) West Region, which is comprised of fourteen field locations in ten states. The Bid Sheet (SF114A Local Reproduction), Schedule H, lists the states, specific locations and items for sale at each location in this region. The Agency may also issue material from Receipt-In-Place (RIP) locations or other locations that are not located at an Agency facility.
2. The performance period of the contract resulting from the IFB shall consists of a 36-month base period, followed by two 12-month option periods that may be exercised at the Sales Contracting Officer’s (SCO) discretion. The contract also contains an available six-month extension period that may be offered at the SCO’s discretion at the end of each performance period, under the same terms and conditions of the contract. In the event the extension is utilized, the SCO shall advise the contractor in writing 120 calendar days prior to the expiration of the current period of performance period. The extension may be utilized in 30-day increments, a combination of 30-day increments, or in its entirety. The entire length of the contract, if all option periods and extension are used, shall not exceed five years.
3. This IFB relates to scrap material that the Government has determined to be surplus to the needs of the Department of Defense (DOD) and the Federal Government. Scrap material is defined as recyclable waste and discarded materials derived from items that have been rendered useless beyond repair, rehabilitation, or restoration such that the item’s original identity, utility, form, fit and function have been destroyed. The Agency does not accept rubbish, refuse or trash from its customers and this type of material shall not be issued under the contract. Scrap and salvage material issued under this contract shall be comprised of Demil code A property.
Expended Small Arms Cartridge Cases (ESACCs) is not included in this IFB and will be offered in a separate IFB at a future date.
4. Items in this sale are identified by Scrap Classification Codes (SCL) based on material content (see Item Description for a listing of all SCLs being sold in this region). Availability of specific items at any particular location will vary and some items are not available at all locations. The Government has sole discretion to determine what material shall be sold to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser has a contractual obligation to purchase and accept all material referred by the
Government at all locations in the region, except for hazardous material. Under no circumstances is culling for effecting partial or incremental removals authorized. Items are being offered with a guaranteed minimum quantity per SCL in the region throughout the performance period. Agency locations may be relocated to other geographic locations to meet the needs of the Agency, and may require Purchaser to relocate containers, workforce and/or equipment as needed, at the expense of the Purchaser to include transportation. Relocation of Agency locations will not change or lower the guaranteed minimums offered for each SCL under this contract.
5. For all SCLs, the Purchaser’s bid shall consist of an amount per pound specified in U.S.
currency for each SCL listed for the region as listed on the Item Bid page (Schedule H). The minimum bid for each SCL item is $0.01000 per pound (bids amounts cannot exceed five decimal places) and the Bidder with the highest cumulative bid for all SCLs shall be considered the apparent high bidder for the sale in this Region.
Note: System generated documents will round to the nearest cent due to the two decimal place parameters. However, the system performs calculations using the actual bid amount up to five decimal places.
6. Prospective bidders should be aware of certain risk factors that could affect a bidder’s assessment of this contract and the calculations supporting the resulting bid. The Agency does not represent, nor is it possible to identify all such risk factors. The prospective bidder is advised and cautioned to assess the following in addition to those risks identified elsewhere in this IFB:
The future volume, quality, condition, market value, mix (e.g., brass, aluminum, copper, ferrous metal) of the material cannot be predicted. Applicable statutes, regulations, policies and inter-service agreements govern whether the disposition of particular items of surplus is through the Agency or through other disposition methods. These changes will affect the volume and nature of the material referred for sale under this contract.
This is not a requirements contract requiring the delivery of all the Agency’s excess and surplus generations of a particular type of property at a location. The Agency is only obligated to sell the minimum quantities for each SCL in each Region that is being offered for sale in the Item Description of the property and consistent within the terms that allow for the Adjustment for Variation in Quantity or Weight as set forth in the Sale by Reference (SBR) Part 4, Condition 5 and other terms elsewhere within this IFB, attachments and schedules.
Purchasers should exercise caution when incurring obligations based on an anticipated performance period as the performance period refers only to the amount of time the agency shall have to meet its commitments to provide the minimum quantities of scrap to the Purchaser. It does not confer any right to receive scrap throughout the performance period; instead, the Agency promises only to provide the minimum quantities subject to variations as authorized by SBR Part 4, Article 5.
7. All potential Bidders are advised to read all terms and conditions of this IFB prior to submitting their bids to ensure they have a complete and full understanding of all requirements under this contract for sale. The Purchaser is cautioned that some requirements for information are required before the start of work on this contract. The Purchaser agrees to provide all services necessary for the contract in accordance with all Federal, state, local laws and regulations and in accordance with the terms of this contract. This also applies to subcontractor(s). All locations may have strict rules that may prohibit access to some individuals. To access our facilities a bidder or their agent shall be required to obtain base access through the host installation. The local location will be able to provide information on how to obtain base access.
Unique Terms and Conditions for this Sale that require special attention from all Bidders
8. No Reimbursements: There shall be no reimbursement to the Purchaser under this contract except for the limited circumstances related to reimbursement of actual expenses incurred for return of property directed by the Government. At no time shall the Government pay the Purchaser to take material offered. This is not a service contract administered in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR). This is a contract for the sale of scrap pursuant to provision in Title 40, US Code, Chapter 5. The Government is not responsible for any indirect expenses related to performance under this contract. The measure of the Government’s liability, in any case where liability of the Government to the Purchaser has been established, shall not exceed refund of such portion of the purchase price as the Government may have received.
Purchaser may be required to attend special training, seminars, instructions, classes, safety orientations, etc., provided by the Government or to provide information to perform work or gain access to the location. Example: Pass and ID requirements, antiterrorist training, Environmental Management Systems (EMS) policies and/or equipment training.
9. Purchaser shall not be allowed to sell material at Disposition Locations: All sales of material must occur after removal from the Agency’s location or RIP location.

10. Purchaser use of sub-contractors: Purchaser may sub-contract with other entities to perform the special terms and conditions required for sorting, segregating and removal of scrap at Agency locations. All sub-contractors shall be approved by the government and shall comply with all terms and conditions of this IFB. Sub-contractors shall be vetted through the same process as the Purchaser as described throughout this IFB. Material may also be processed at sub-contractor facilities approved under the terms of this IFB. Failure of sub-contractors to perform the special terms and conditions required under this sale are grounds for default and shall result in termination if not cured. The Purchaser’s contract with the sub-contractor must include Sales by Reference, Part 5, Article C, subparagraphs a through c.
11. Containers (commonly referred to as Roll-offs, dumpster, bins, etc.):
The Purchaser shall be required to provide a covered container for each SCL at each location. Containers must be transportable with a lid in which scrap material is stored, transported, disposed of or otherwise handled. Containers must be capable of being sealed. The containers shall be used to segregate and accumulate the specific SCLs as determined by the Agency. When a container is full, the Purchaser shall place an empty container of equal capacity and remove the full container from Agency premises. Initial container requirement is one 30 cu.
Yd. Roll-off container per SCL at each pick-up location. After commencing performance under the contract, the Purchaser and Area Manager or Site Lead may agree to change the planograph for the scrap yard to accommodate smaller containers for specific SCLs. The Area Manager or Site Lead shall submit the planograph to the SCO for approval. If approved, an SF114D shall be signed by both Purchaser and SCO as mutually agreed and at no additional cost to the Government. Change in container size must not impede rate of removal or customer support.
Containers must be covered. Lids or other covers must be constructed of impermeable material to prevent collection of rainwater, snow or other foreign debris from accumulating inside the container. Lids or covers must be able to secure load during transport to prevent material from falling or flying out of the container.
Container size and quantity may vary based on SCL and the volume due to customer turn-in rates. Container size and quantity shall be of such capacity to accommodate an accumulation of 3-5 workdays’ and prevent scrap from accumulating on the ground.

Weight Capacity in pounds (lbs.)
10 12 * 8 * 3.5 4,000 – 6,000 20 22 * 8 * 4 5,000 – 7,000 30 22 * 8 * 6 7,000 – 10,000 40 22 * 8 * 8 12,000 – 16,000
Containers not meeting safety requirements shall be refused for delivery to Government facilities.
12. Removal and Replacement of Containers: The Sales Point of Contact (SPOC) shall provide local oversight of the contract and provide written notice (use DLA Form 2535-1) to request removals of containers and other over-sized loads. Purchaser shall confirm, in writing via email to the SPOC and SCO, support for the requested removals. Purchaser shall provide for the pickup, removal and transportation of containers from the Agency’s locations to their designated facility as identified on the DLA Form 2536 Statement of Intent.

The Contractor will be charged storage charges for property not removed from a Government facility within three working days of the email notification, unless a prior approval has been granted by the SCO. Normally, approval will not exceed 30 days.
The Government will assess storage charges for all property not removed within three working days after written notification has been made to the contractor via email by location. Storage charges begin accrual on the fourth working day after written notification. Storage charges accrue at a rate of $0.05 (five cents) per hundred pounds, per day, until removed. Charges may be applied by the Government for any item not removed from Government premises within three working days after written notification on DLA Form 2535-1 is sent via email by location to the Purchaser. The Government may apply a minimum fee of $100 per day. Property left on Government premises longer than 60 business days will, at the Government’s sole discretion, revert to Government ownership and control without refund of any Purchaser monies received. The Agency will include such charges on the monthly Statement of Account and the cost for the storage will be the total responsibility of the Purchaser. Purchaser shall coordinate such access with the management of each facility. In addition, DOD customers may require additional storage space; therefore, property issued to Purchaser may be required to be relocated by the Purchaser and at the Purchaser’s expense.
13. Segregation and Sorting of Scrap by SCL at Agency Locations: Segregating and Sorting is defined as the process of identifying the material for its basic material content in accordance with SCLs available at a particular location.
