B.2 STATEMENT OF WORK

I. Background

The Wilkes-Barre VA Medical Center (WBVAMC), located at 1111 East End Blvd., Wilkes-Barre, PA 18711, has a requirement for a firm-fixed-priced 5-year IDIQ contract for uniform rental, repair, and laundering services for its Environmental Management Services (EVS), Nutrition and Food Services (NFS), Supply Chain Management (SCM), and Facilities Management Services (FMS) Service Lines. The anticipated period of performance is 07/20/2026 through 07/19/2031.

One week prior to the time of measurement, the contractor shall provide, with the highest possible degree of similarity, examples of the various uniform style options listed herein for the respective service lines for fitting.

L. Uniform Life: The average life of a uniform is approximately two years. All uniforms are to be replaced at no cost to the Government when the condition does not meet the “acceptable condition” criteria identified above.

M. Uniforms Not in Use: When employees are not active due to extended illness, workers compensation, etc., the VA POC shall notify contractor and there shall be cessation of charges for that employee’s uniforms.

The Government reserves the right to inspect or test any supplies or services that have been tendered for acceptance. The Government 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 exercise 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.

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

The Contractor shall be liable for default unless nonperformance is caused by an occurrence beyond the reasonable 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.

(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, including 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.
