B.2 SCOPE OF WORK

Inspection, Testing and Maintenance of Fire Protection Systems GCVHCS, Biloxi

JACC Pensacola, FL Eglin OPC, FL

PCOPC Panama City Beach OPC PC Behavioral Health, Panama City

Contractor to provide testing and inspection of Fire Protections Systems for all GCVHCS facilities located along the Gulf Coast.

Contractor to perform inspection, testing and maintenance in accordance with the most current applicable NFPA Standards. Contractor to provide performance measurements, listed ranges of acceptable results, and complete documentation of the inspections. All inspections will provide real time test monitoring via web/cloud and be performed and reported through online database using BuildingReports.com. VA Safety Specialists will have access to said database.

Water Based Systems Testing

Perform Inspections, Testing, Maintenance and Documentation of Fire Protections Systems as required by NFPA Standard 25. NFPA Standard 25 requires inspection, testing and routine maintenance of systems, Quarterly, Annually and Semi-Annually.

Inspect, Test, and Maintenance (ITM) tasks should be performed by craftsperson's trained/qualified in the inspection, testing, maintenance, and repair of the subject fire protection systems or subsystems.

Tasks:

1. Flow tests each system using the test valve to ensure water flow alarm operation.

2. Verify control valves positions.

3. Visually check exterior of valves, gauges, trim alignment, and risers

4. Verify supervision of control valves (valves without locks)

5. Conduct main drain test on each system riser to verify supply and indicated pass or fail.

6. Main Drain tests conducted a minimum of once annually as described below.

7. Perform adjustments and repairs/replacements as need to correct minor deficiencies found during the inspections. Examples are replacing expired water/air pressure gauges (provided by the contactor); adjusting water flow switches to set proper high-and low-pressure settings and tightening up a loose/leaking ITV and/or union. These actions should be able to be accomplished on-the-spot and relatively quickly without need for replacement parts/components other than replacement pressure gauges.

8. Gauges monitoring water pressure shall be inspected quarterly to verify that normal water supply pressure is being maintained. (Inspector will annotate the water pressure and date of gauge installation on the inspection form in “Notes” column)

9. Waterflow Alarm and Supervisory Signal Initiating Device. Waterflow alarm and supervisory signal initiating devices shall be inspected quarterly to verify that they are free of physical damage.

10. Control valve supervisory alarm devices shall be inspected quarterly to verify that they are free of physical damage.

11. Inspect fire alarm panels ensure batteries have been change and legible label with date of installation. (Inspector will annotate the capacity of the battery, date of service of battery installation, and charge of the battery on the inspection form in “Notes” column)

Main Drain Test Procedures A.13.2.5 Main drains are installed on system risers for one principal reason: to drain water from the overhead piping after the system is shut off. This allows the contractor or plant maintenance department to perform work on the system or to replace nozzles after a fire or other incident involving system operation.

These drains also are used to determine whether there is a major reduction in water flow to the system, such as could be caused by a major obstruction, a dropped gate, a valve that is almost fully closed, or a check valve clapper stuck to the valve seat.

The test for standpipe systems should be done at the low point drain for each standpipe or the main drain test connection where the supply main enters the building.

A large drop in the full flow pressure of the main drain (as compared to previous tests) normally is indicative of a dangerously reduced water supply caused by a valve in an almost fully closed position or other type of severe obstruction.

After closing the drain, a slow return to normal static pressure is confirmation of the suspicion of a major obstruction in the waterway and should be considered sufficient reason to determine the cause of the variation.

A satisfactory drain test (i.e., one that reflects the results of previous tests) does not necessarily indicate an unobstructed passage, nor does it prove that all valves in the upstream flow of water are fully opened. The performance of drain tests is not a substitute for a valve check on 100 percent of the fire protection valving.

The main drain test is conducted in the following manner:

1. Record the pressure indicated by the supply water gauge.

2. Close the alarm control valve on alarm valves.

3. Fully open the main drain valve.

4. After the flow has stabilized, record the residual (flowing} pressure indicated by the water supply gauge.

5. Close the main drain valve slowly.

6. Record the time taken for the supply water pressure to return to the original static

(non-flowing) pressure.

7. Open the alarm control valve.

Fire Extinguishers

Contractor to Perform Annual Inspections, Testing & Maintenance of Portable Fire Extinguishing as required by ANSI/UL 711, CAN/ULC-S508, ANSI/UL 154, ANSI/UL299, ANSI/UL 626, UL 1093 (If Applicable) and NFPA Standard 10.

NFPA Standard 10 requires inspection, testing and routine maintenance of the facilities portable fire extinguishing systems on an annual basis.

The annual maintenance of a fire extinguisher requires the services of a trained and certified technician who has the proper tools, listed parts, and appropriate manufacturer’s service manual.

The following list is a sample of maintenance procedures that should be followed to determine deficiencies that require additional attention to remediate the condition of the extinguisher as appropriate for rechargeable, stored-pressure, dry chemical, and halogenated agent hand portable fire extinguishers:

1. Visually examine the extinguisher for damage by removing the extinguisher from the hanger, bracket, or cabinet and visually examine the extinguisher for damage, including pressure gauge, cylinder dents, repairs, general corrosion, hose or nozzle threads, handles, and levers.

2. Verify that the hanger, bracket, or cabinet is the proper one for the extinguisher.

3. Verify that the hanger, bracket, or cabinet is secure, undamaged, and properly mounted.

4. Verify that the nameplate operating instructions are legible and facing outward.

5. Confirm that the extinguisher model is not subject to recall and is not obsolete.

6. Verify the extinguisher records to determine internal examination and hydrostatic test intervals. Thoroughly examine the cylinder for dents, damage, repairs, or corrosion.

7. Verify the pull pin functions properly and examine for damage or corrosion by removing the pull pin.

8. Verify that the handle and levers are undamaged and operable.

9. Verify that the valve stem is correctly extended and not corroded or damaged.

10. Verify that the pressure gauge or indicator is in the operable range.

11. Verify that the gauge operating pressure corresponds with the nameplate instructions.

12. Verify that the gauge face corresponds with the proper agent type.

13. Verify that the gauge threads are compatible with the valve body material.

14. Verify that the nozzle or hose assembly, or both, is unobstructed, by removing and examining the nozzle.

15. Confirm that the nozzle and hose assembly are correct for the model of extinguisher.

16. Verify that the hose and couplings are not cut, cracked, damaged, or deformed.

17. Examine internal valve port surfaces and threads for signs of leakage or corrosion by removing the nozzle or hose assembly and reinstalling the nozzle and hose assembly securely after examination.

18. Verify that the hose retention band is secure and properly adjusted.

19. Weigh the extinguisher and verify that it corresponds to the weight listed on the nameplate.

20. Reinstall the ring pin and install a new tamper seal.

21. Clean exposed extinguisher surfaces to remove any foreign material.

22. Record the maintenance on the extinguisher tag or label.

23. Return the extinguisher to the hanger, bracket, or cabinet.

After the maintenance and visual examination have been completed a new listed tamper seal shall be installed with a tag or label securely attached that indicates maintenance was performed. At a minimum the tag or label shall identify the following:

1. Month and year maintenance performed.

2. Person performing the work.

3. Name of agency performing the work.

Fire Pump Testing as required by NFPA Standard 25. NFPA Standard 25 requires inspection, testing and routine maintenance of systems, annually.

The annual fire pump flow test is a full test of a pump’s capabilities and is arguably the most critical test. It is conducted once a year to measure flow and pressure and make sure the fire pump is ready to respond to a call to service. It can also uncover any problems with the pump’s water supply, such as closed valves or obstructions between the supply and the equipment.

During the testing period, the fire pump is temporarily taken offline, so it’s important that nothing beyond “normal operations” are conducted on a property while this occurs to minimize risk to occupants. Since the pump will be operating at extreme conditions during the test, it’s essential to take careful safety precautions, such as wearing protective gear, testing in properly ventilated areas, only using hoses that have passed a service test within the past 12 months, and shutting down discharges before changing nozzles.

Test results should not deviate by more than five percent from the initial acceptance test performed right after the fire pump was installed or the pressures indicated on its nameplate. If that information isn’t available, a satisfactory test should deliver:

• 150 percent of rated capacity at 65 percent of rated pressure

• 100 percent of rated capacity at rated pressure

• A maximum of 140 percent of rated pressure at churn (no flow)

Contract GRAND TOTAL

For the purposes of the award of this Contract, the Government intends to evaluate the option to extend services under FAR 52.217-8 as follows:

The evaluation will consider the possibility that the option can be exercised at any time and can be exercised in increments of one to six months, but not for more than a total of six months during the life of the contract. The evaluation will assume that the prices for any option exercised under FAR 52.217-8 will be at the same rates as those in effect under the contract at the time the option is exercised. The evaluation will therefore assume that the addition of the price or prices of any possible extension or extensions under FAR 52.217-8 to the total price of all proposals relative to each other and will not affect the ranking of proposals based on price, unless, after reviewing the proposals, the Government determines that there is a basis for finding otherwise. This evaluation will not obligate the Government to exercise any option under FAR

52.217-8.

SECTION C - CONTRACT CLAUSES

ADDENDUM to FAR 52.212-4 CONTRACT TERMS AND CONDITIONS—COMMERCIAL

PRODUCTS AND COMMERCIAL SERVICES

Clauses that are incorporated by reference (by Citation Number, Title, and Date), have the same force and effect as if they were given in full text. Upon request, the Contracting Officer will make their full text available.

The following clauses are incorporated into 52.212-4 as an addendum to this contract:

C.1 52.217-8 OPTION TO EXTEND SERVICES (NOV 1999)

The Government may require continued performance of any services within the limits and at the rates specified in the contract. These rates may be adjusted only as a result of revisions to prevailing labor rates provided by the Secretary of Labor. The option provision may be exercised more than once, but the total extension of performance hereunder shall not exceed 6 months. The Contracting Officer may exercise the option by written notice to the Contractor within 30 days.

(End of Clause)

C.2 52.217-9 OPTION TO EXTEND THE TERM OF THE CONTRACT (MAR

2000)

(a) The Government may extend the term of this contract by written notice to the Contractor within 30 days; provided that the Government gives the Contractor a preliminary written notice of its intent to extend at least 60 days before the contract expires. The preliminary notice does not commit the Government to an extension.

(b) If the Government exercises this option, the extended contract shall be considered to include this option clause.

(c) The total duration of this contract, including the exercise of any options under this clause, shall not exceed five (5) years.

(End of Clause)

C.3 SUPPLEMENTAL INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS

In accordance with FAR 28.307-2 and FAR 52.228-5, the following minimum coverage shall apply to this contract:

(a) Workers' compensation and employers liability: Contractors are required to comply with applicable Federal and State workers' compensation and occupational disease statutes. If occupational diseases are not compensable under those statutes, they shall be covered under the employer's liability section of the insurance policy, except when contract operations are so commingled with a Contractor's commercial operations that it would not be practical to require this coverage. Employer's liability coverage of at least $100,000 is required, except in States with exclusive or monopolistic funds that do not permit workers' compensation to be written by private carriers.

(b) General Liability: $500,000.00 per occurrences.

(c) Automobile liability: $200,000.00 per person; $500,000.00 per occurrence and $20,000.00 property damage.

(d) The successful bidder must present to the Contracting Officer, prior to award, evidence of general liability insurance without any exclusionary clauses for asbestos that would void the general liability coverage.

(End of Clause)

C.4 VAAR 852.201-70 CONTRACTING OFFICER'S REPRESENTATIVE (DEC

2022)

The Contracting Officer reserves the right to designate representatives to act for him/her in furnishing technical guidance and advice or generally monitor the work to be performed under this contract. Such designation will be in writing and will define the scope and limitation of the designee’s authority. A copy of the designation letter shall be furnished to the Contractor.

(End of Clause)

C.5 VAAR 852.203-70 COMMERCIAL ADVERTISING (MAY 2018)

The Contractor shall not make reference in its commercial advertising to Department of

Veterans Affairs contracts in a manner that states or implies the Department of Veterans Affairs approves or endorses the Contractor’s products or services or considers the Contractor’s products or services superior to other products or services.

(End of Clause)

C.6 VAAR 852.219-70 VA SMALL BUSINESS SUBCONTRACTING PLAN

MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS (JAN 2023) (DEVIATION)

(a) This clause does not apply to small business concerns.

(b) If the offeror is required to submit an individual subcontracting plan, the minimum goals for award of subcontracts to certified service-disabled veteran-owned small business and certified veteran-owned small business SDVOSB/VOSB shall be at least commensurate with the

Department’s annual SDVOSB/VOSB subcontracting goals.

(c) For a commercial plan, the minimum goals for award of subcontracts to SDVOSB/ VOSB shall be at least commensurate with the Department’s annual service-disabled veteran-owned small business and veteranowned small business subcontracting goals for the total value of projected subcontracts to support the sales for the commercial plan.

(d) To be credited toward goal achievements, SDVOSB/VOSBs must be certified and listed in the SBA certification database at https://veterans.certify.sba.gov/ (see 13 CFR 128) and be otherwise eligible in accordance with SBA size standards for the acquisition and limitations on subcontracting requirements set forth in SBA regulations (see 13 CFR 121, 125 and 128).A contractor may reasonably rely on a subcontractor’s status as shown in the SBA certification https://veterans.certify.sba.gov/ database as of the date of subcontract award, provided the contractor retains records of the results of the SBA certification database query.

(e) The Contractor shall annually submit a listing of SDVOSB/VOSB (for which credit toward goal achievement is to be applied) for review by personnel in the Office of Small and

Disadvantaged Business Utilization. Use VA Form 0896A, Report of Subcontracts to Small and

Veteran-Owned Business.

(f) Pursuant to 38 U.S.C. 8127(g), any business concern that is determined by VA to have willfully and intentionally misrepresented a company’s SDVOSB/VOSB status is subject to debarment for a period of not less than five years. This includes the debarment of all principals in the business.

(End of Clause)

SDVOSB as defined in this clause, 13 CFR 121, 125, and 128, and VAAR subpart 819.70.

(d) Agreement/LOS certification. When awarded a contract action, including orders under multipleaward contracts, an SDVOSB agrees that in the performance of the contract, the

SDVOSB shall comply with requirements in VAAR subpart 819.70 and SBA regulations on small business size, and government contracting programs at 13 CFR part 121 and part 125, including the non-manufacturer rule and limitations on subcontracting (LOS) requirements in 13

CFR 121.406(b) and 13 CFR 125.6. For the purpose of limitations on subcontracting, only certified SDVOSBs listed in the SBA certification database (including independent contractors) shall be considered eligible and/or ‘‘similarly situated’’ (i.e., a firm that has the same small business program status as the prime contractor). An otherwise eligible firm further agrees to comply with the required LOS certification requirements in this solicitation (see 852.219–75 or

852.219–76 as applicable). These requirements are summarized as follows:

(1) Services. In the case of a contract for services (except construction), the SDVOSB prime contractor will not pay more than 50% of the amount paid by the government to the prime for contract performance to firms that are not certified SDVOSBs listed in the SBA certification database (excluding direct costs to the extent they are not the principal purpose of the acquisition and the SDVOSB/ VOSB does not provide the service, such as airline travel, cloud computing services, or mass media purchases). When a contract includes both services and supplies, the 50 percent limitation shall apply only to the service portion of the contract.

(2) Supplies/products.

(i) In the case of a contract for supplies or products (other than from a non-manufacturer of such supplies), the SDVOSB prime contractor will not pay more than 50% of the amount paid by the government to the prime for contract performance, excluding the cost of materials, to firms that are not certified SDVOSBs listed in the SBA certification database. When a contract includes both supply and services, the 50 percent limitation shall apply only to the supply portion of the contract.

(ii) In the case of a contract for supplies from a non-manufacturer, the SDVOSB prime contractor will supply the product of a domestic small business manufacturer or processor, unless a waiver as described in 13 CFR 121.406(b)(5) has been granted. Refer to 13 CFR

125.6(a)(2)(ii) for guidance pertaining to multiple item procurements.

(3) General construction. In the case of a contract for general construction, the SDVOSB prime contractor will not pay more than 85% of the amount paid by the government to the prime for contract performance, excluding the cost of materials, to firms that are not certified

SDVOSBs listed in the SBA certification database.

(4) Special trade construction contractors. In the case of a contract for special trade contractors, no more than 75% of the amount paid by the government to the prime for contract performance, excluding the cost of materials, may be paid to firms that are not certified

SDVOSBs listed in the SBA certification database.

(5) Subcontracting. An SDVOSB subcontractor must meet the NAICS size standard assigned by the prime contractor and be certified and listed in the SBA certification database to count as similarly situated. Any work that a first tier SDVOSB subcontractor further subcontracts will count towards the percent of subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded. For supply or construction contracts, the cost of materials is excluded and not considered to be subcontracted. When a contract includes both services and supplies, the 50 percent limitation shall apply only to the portion of the contract with the preponderance of the expenditure upon which the assigned NAICS is based. For information and more specific requirements, refer to 13

CFR 125.6.

(e) Required limitations on subcontracting compliance measurement period. An SDVOSB shall comply with the limitations on subcontracting as follows:

[X] By the end of the base term of the contract or order, and then by the end of each subsequent option period; or

[] By the end of the performance period for each order issued under the contract.

(f) Joint ventures. A joint venture may be considered eligible as an SDVOSB if the joint venture complies with the requirements in 13 CFR 128.402 and the managing joint venture partner makes the representations under paragraph (c) of this clause. A joint venture agrees that, in the performance of the contract, the applicable percentage specified in paragraph (d) of this clause will be performed by the aggregate of the joint venture participants.

(g) Precedence. The VA Veterans First Contracting Program, as defined in VAAR 802.101, subpart 819.70, and this clause, takes precedence over any inconsistencies between the requirements of the SBA Veteran Small Business Certification Program and the VA Veterans

First Contracting Program.

(h) Misrepresentation. Pursuant to 38 U.S.C. 8127(g), any business concern, including all its principals, that is determined by VA to have willfully and intentionally misrepresented a company’s…
