3.10.4-4 INSPECTION OF SERVICES - BOTH FIXED-PRICE & COST REIMBURSEMENT (APR
1996)
3.10.4-2 INSPECTION OF SUPPLIES - FIXED PRICE (NOV 1997)
(a) Definition. 'Supplies,' as used in this clause, includes but is not limited to raw materials, components, intermediate assemblies, end products, and lots of supplies.
(b) The Contractor shall provide and maintain an inspection system acceptable to the Government covering supplies under this contract and shall tender to the Government for acceptance only supplies that have been inspected in accordance with the inspection system and have been found by the Contractor to be in conformity with contract requirements. As part of the system, the Contractor shall prepare records evidencing all inspections made under the system and the outcome. These records shall be kept complete and made available to the Government during contract performance and for as long afterwards as the contract requires. The Government may perform reviews and evaluations as reasonably necessary to ascertain compliance with this paragraph. These reviews and evaluations shall be conducted in a manner that will not unduly delay the contract work. The right of review, whether exercised or not, does not relieve the Contractor of the obligations under the contract.
(c) The Government has the right to inspect and test all supplies called for by the contract, to the extent practicable, at all places and times, including the period of manufacture, and in any event before acceptance. The Government shall perform inspections and tests in a manner that will not unduly delay the work. The Government assumes no contractual obligation to perform any inspection and test for the benefit of the Contractor unless specifically set forth elsewhere in this contract.
(d) If the Government performs inspection or test on the premises of the Contractor or a subcontractor, the Contractor shall furnish, and shall require subcontractors to furnish, without additional charge, all reasonable facilities and assistance for the safe and convenient performance of these duties. Except as otherwise provided in the contract, the Government shall bear the expense of Government inspections or tests made at other than the Contractor's or subcontractor's premises; provided, that in case of rejection, the Government shall not be liable for any reduction in the value of inspection or test samples.
(e) (1) When supplies are not ready at the time specified by the Contractor for inspection or test, the Contracting Officer may charge to the Contractor the additional cost of inspection or test.
(2) The Contracting Officer may also charge the Contractor for any additional cost of inspection or test when prior rejection makes reinspection or retest necessary.
(f) The Government has the right either to reject or to require correction of nonconforming supplies. Supplies are nonconforming when they are defective in material or workmanship or are otherwise not in conformity with contract requirements. The Government may reject nonconforming supplies with or without disposition instructions.
(g) The Contractor shall remove supplies rejected or required to be corrected. However, the Contracting Officer may require or permit correction in place, promptly after notice, by and at the expense of the Contractor. The Contractor shall not tender for acceptance corrected or rejected supplies without disclosing the former rejection or requirement for correction, and, when required, shall disclose the corrective action taken.
(If the contract type is fixed price incentive, the following applies; Cost of removal, replacement, or correction shall be considered a cost incurred, or to be incurred, in the total final negotiated cost fixed under the incentive price revision clause. However, replacements or corrections by the Contractor after the establishment of the total final price shall be at no increase in the total final price.)
(If the contract type is a fixed-ceiling price contract with retroactive price redetermination, the following applies;
Cost of removal, replacement, or correction shall be considered a cost incurred, or to be incurred, when determining the price under the price redetermined clause. However, replacements or corrections by the contractor after the establishment of the redetermined prices shall be at no increase in the redetermined price.)
(h) If the Contractor fails to promptly remove, replace, or correct rejected supplies that are required to be removed or to be replaced or corrected, the Government may either:
(1) by contract or otherwise, remove, replace, or correct the supplies and charge the cost to the Contractor or
(2) terminate the contract for default.
Unless the Contractor corrects or replaces the supplies within the delivery schedule, the Contracting Officer may require their delivery and make an equitable price reduction. Failure to agree to a price reduction shall be a dispute.
(If the contract type is fixed-price incentive, substitute the following for subparagraph (h). "(h) If the Contractor fails to promptly remove, replace, or correct rejected supplies that are required to be removed or to be replaced or corrected, the Government may either:
(1) by contract or otherwise, remove, replace, or correct the supplies and equitably reduce the target price or, if established, the total final price or
(2) may terminate the contract for default.
Unless the Contractor corrects or replaces the nonconforming supplies within the delivery schedule, the Contracting Officer may require their delivery and equitably reduce any target price or, if it is established, the total final contract price. Failure to agree upon an equitable price reduction shall be a dispute.")
(If the contract type is fixed-ceiling price contract with retroactive price redetermination, substitute the following for subparagraph (h). "(h) If the Contractor fails to promptly remove, replace, or correct rejected supplies that are required to be removed or to be replaced or corrected, the Government may either:
(1) by contract or otherwise, remove, replace, or correct the supplies and equitably reduce the initial contract price or, if established, the redetermined contract price or
(2) may terminate the contract for default.
Unless the Contractor corrects or replaces the nonconforming supplies within the delivery schedule, the Contracting Officer may require their delivery and equitably reduce the initial contract price or, if it is established, the redetermined contract price. Failure to agree upon an equitable price reduction shall be a dispute.")
(i) If this contract involves government quality assurance at source, the contractor shall provide adequate advance notification as to when supplies are scheduled for inspection and test, and when the supplies will be ready for government inspection. Unless otherwise stated in the contract, this shall normally be at least 2 days if a Government representative is in residence in the Contractor's plant, or 7 days otherwise.
(j) The Government shall accept or reject supplies as promptly as practicable when presented for inspection and test, or after delivery, unless otherwise provided in the contract. Government failure to inspect and accept or reject the supplies shall not relieve the Contractor from responsibility, nor impose liability on the Government, for nonconforming supplies.
(k) Inspections and tests by the Government do not relieve the Contractor of responsibility for defects or other failures to meet contract requirements discovered before acceptance. Acceptance shall be conclusive, except for latent defects, fraud, gross mistakes amounting to fraud, or as otherwise provided in the contract.
(l) If acceptance is not conclusive for any of the reasons in paragraph (k) hereof, the Government, in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law, or under other provisions of this contract, shall have the right to require the Contractor:
(1) at no increase in contract price, (or target price, total final price, initial contract price, or the redetermined price of the contract) to correct or replace the defective or nonconforming supplies at the original point of delivery or at the Contractor's plant at the Contracting Officer's election, and in accordance with a reasonable delivery schedule as may be agreed upon between the Contractor and the Contracting Officer; provided, that the Contracting Officer may require a reduction in contract price (or any target price, total final price, the initial price, or redetermined price of the contract) if the Contractor fails to meet such delivery schedule, or
(2) within a reasonable time after receipt by the Contractor of notice of defects or nonconformance, to repay such portion of the contract price as is equitable under the circumstances if the Contracting Officer elects not to require correction or replacement. When supplies are returned to the Contractor, the Contractor shall bear the transportation cost from the original point of delivery to the Contractor's plant and return to the original point when that point is not the Contractor's plant. If the Contractor fails to perform or act as required in (1) or (2) above and does not cure such failure within a period of 10 days (or such longer period as the Contracting Officer may authorize in writing) after receipt of notice from the Contracting Officer specifying such failure, the Government shall have the right by contract or otherwise to replace or correct such supplies and charge to the Contractor the cost occasioned by the Government thereby, to equitably reduce any target price or, if established, the total final price, or to equitably reduce the initial contract price, or, if established, the redetermined price of the contract.
(End of clause)
3.10.4-16 RESPONSIBILITY FOR SUPPLIES (APR 1996)
(a) Title to supplies furnished under this contract shall pass to the Government upon formal acceptance, regardless of when or where the Government takes physical possession, unless the contract specifically provides for earlier passage of title.
(b) Unless the contract specifically provides otherwise, risk of loss of or damage to supplies shall remain with the Contractor until, and shall pass to the Government upon--
(1) Delivery of the supplies to a carrier, if transportation is f.o.b. origin; or
(2) Acceptance by the Government or delivery of the supplies to the Government at the destination specified in the contract, whichever is later, if transportation is f.o.b. destination.
(c) Paragraph (b) above shall not apply to supplies that so fail to conform to contract requirements as to give a right of rejection. The risk of loss of or damage to such nonconforming supplies remains with the Contractor until cure or acceptance. After cure or acceptance, paragraph (b) above shall apply.
(d) Under paragraph (b) above, the Contractor shall not be liable for loss of or damage to supplies caused by the negligence of officers, agents, or employees of the Government acting within the scope of their employment.

Section H - Special Contract Requirements Clause List
3.1.9-1 ELECTRONIC COMMERCE AND SIGNATURE (JUL 2020)

(d) The use of electronic signature technology is authorized under this solicitation and the resulting contract.
(e) Contractors must not digitally sign any documents with software that uses the Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA- 1).

(C) Capability presentations by persons seeking awards from an agency pursuant to the provisions of a law authorizing such actions;
(v) Only those services expressly authorized by subdivision (c)(1)(i) of this clause are permitted under this clause.
(2) Professional and technical services.
(i) The prohibition on the use of appropriated funds, in subparagraph (b)(1) of this clause, does not apply in the case of:
(A) A payment of reasonable compensation made to an officer or employee of a person requesting or receiving a covered Federal action or an extension, continuation, renewal, amendment, or modification of a covered Federal action, if payment is for professional or technical services rendered directly in the preparation, submission, or negotiation of submittal/offer or application for that Federal action or for meeting requirements imposed by or pursuant to law as a condition for receiving that Federal action.
(B) Any reasonable payment to a person, other than an officer or employee of a person requesting or receiving a covered Federal action or an extension, continuation, renewal, amendment, or modification of a covered Federal action if the payment is for professional or technical services rendered directly in the preparation, submission, or negotiation of any submittal/offer or application for that Federal action or for meeting requirements imposed by or pursuant to law as a condition for receiving that Federal action. Persons other than officers or employees of a person requesting or receiving a covered Federal action include consultants and trade associations.
(ii) For purposes of subdivision (c)(2)(i) of this clause, 'professional and technical services' must be limited to advice and analysis directly applying any professional or technical discipline. For example, drafting of a legal document accompanying a submittal/offer by a lawyer is allowable. Similarly, technical advice provided by an engineer on the performance or operational capability of a piece of equipment rendered directly in the negotiation of a contract is allowable. However, communications with the intent to influence made by a professional (such as a licensed lawyer) or a technical person (such as a licensed accountant) are not allowable under this section unless they provide advice and analysis directly applying their professional or technical expertise and unless the advice or analysis is rendered directly and solely in the preparation, submission or negotiation of a covered Federal action. Thus, for example, communications with the intent to influence made by a lawyer that do not provide legal advice or analysis directly and solely related to the legal aspects of his or her client's submittal/offer, but generally advocate one proposal over another are not allowable under this section because the lawyer is not providing professional legal services.
Similarly, communications with the intent to influence made by an engineer providing an engineering analysis prior to the preparation or submission of a submittal/offer are not allowable under this section since the engineer is providing technical services but not directly in the preparation, submission or negotiation of a covered Federal action.
(iii) Requirements imposed by or pursuant to law as a condition for receiving a covered Federal award include those required by law or regulation and any other requirements in the actual award documents.
(iv) Only those services expressly authorized by subdivisions (c)(2)(i) and (ii) of this clause are permitted under this clause.
(v) The reporting requirements herein must not apply with respect to payments of reasonable compensation made to regularly employed officers or employees of a person.
(d) Disclosure.
(1) If the Contractor, who requests or receives from an agency a Federal contract, has made or has agreed to make any payment using non-appropriated funds (to include profits from any Covered Federal action), to any person for the purpose of influencing or attempting to influence an officer or employee of any Agency, a Member of Congress, an officer or employee of Congress, or an employee of a Member of Congress on his or her behalf in connection with a Covered Federal action, the Contractor must file with that agency a disclosure form, OMB Standard Form LLL, Disclosure of Lobbying Activities..
(2) The Contractor must file a disclosure form at the end of each calendar quarter in which there occurs any event that materially affects the accuracy of the information contained in any disclosure form previously filed by such person under subparagraph (d)(1) of this clause. An event that materially affects the accuracy of the information reported includes:
(i) A cumulative increase of $25,000 or more in the amount paid or expected to be paid for influencing or attempting to influence a covered Federal action; or
(ii) A change in the person(s) or individual(s) influencing or attempting to influence a covered Federal action; or
(iii) A change in the officer(s), employee(s), or Member(s) contacted to influence or attempt to influence a covered Federal action.
(3) The Contractor must require the certification, and if required, a disclosure form by any person who requests or receives any subcontractor exceeding $150,000 under the Federal contract.
(4) All subcontractor disclosure forms must be forwarded from tier to tier until received by the prime Contractor.
The prime Contractor must submit all disclosures to the Contracting Officer at the end of the calendar quarter in which the disclosure form is submitted by the subcontractor.
(e) Agreement. The Contractor agrees not to make any payment prohibited by this clause.
(f) Penalties.
(1) Any person who makes an expenditure prohibited under paragraph (b) of this clause or fails to file or amend the disclosure form to be filed or amended by paragraph (b) must be subject to civil penalties as provided for by 31 U.S.C. 1352. An imposition of a civil penalty does not prevent the Government from seeking any other remedy that may be applicable.
(2) Contractors may rely without liability on the representations made by their subcontractors in the certification and in the disclosure form.
(g) Cost allowability. Nothing in this clause makes allowable or reasonable any costs which would otherwise be unallowable or unreasonable. Conversely, costs made specifically unallowable by the requirements in this clause will not be made allowable under any other provision.
(End of clause)
H.1 TASK/DELIVERY ORDER PROCESSING—MULTIPLE AWARD CONTRACT

H.2 TASK/DELIVERY ORDER AWARD
(a) Contractors awarded contracts as a result of this SIR/RFP will compete for subsequent Task Orders. These contractors are encouraged to participate in all site visits and submit proposals.

(b) The Contracting Officer will provide fair opportunity among contract awardees to determine task order award.
The CO will act with broad discretion in determining procedures for awardees to receive a fair opportunity to be considered for each order.
(c) Except under, but not limited to the conditions specified in this clause; as task requirements are identified the Contracting Officer reserves the right to award a Task Order without competition based upon a determination that:
(1) The agency need for such services is of such urgency that providing such opportunity would result in unacceptable delays.
(2) The order should be issued on a single source basis, in the interest of economy and efficiency, as a logical follow-on to an order already issued under the contract, provided that all awardees were given a fair opportunity to be considered for the original order.
(3) The order should be issued on a single source basis, in the interest of economy and efficiency, when an awardee is already mobilized and currently performing under a previously issued order.
(4) The order should be issued on a single source basis, in the interest of economy and efficiency, when a rational basis has been established and documented.
(5) The order should be issued after exclusion of awardees based on one of the following circumstances:
(i) If an awardee’s performance under recent orders under the contract raises questions regarding that awardee’s ability to perform at an acceptable level, that awardee need not be given an opportunity to compete.
(ii) Where information is available to indicate that an awardee has a conflict of interest with the work anticipated under the order, or does not have the capacity to perform a particular order at the level of quality required or within the time required due to the volume or complexity of ongoing work, that awardee need not be given an opportunity to compete.
(iii) Other circumstances that in the judgment of the Contracting officer that provides a sufficient basis for excluding an awardee from a particular order, when a rational basis has been established and documented.
(6) Task orders may be issued to the contractors whom were awarded the basic contract. Each basic contract will be for a 1-year base period, with four (4) 1-year option periods to be exercised at the sole discretion of the Government.
The Task Orders will be placed against the basic contracts to fund projects throughout the year.
