3.1.9-1 ELECTRONIC COMMERCE AND SIGNATURE (JUL 2018)

(a) The Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-SIGN) establishes a legal equivalence between:

(1) Contracts written on paper and contracts in electronic form;

(2) Pen-and-ink signatures and electronic signatures; and

(3) Other legally-required written records and the same information in electronic form.

(b) With the submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges and accepts the utilization of electronic commerce as part of the requirements of this solicitation and the resultant contract.

(c) Certain documents may need to be provided or maintained in original form, such as large scale drawings impractical to convert to electronic format or a document with a raised seal signifying authenticity. This clause does not change or affect any other requirements that a document must be in paper format to satisfy legal requirements such as for certain real estate transactions.

(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). All digitally signed documents and contracts sent to the FAA must use a SHA-256 or higher hash algorithm. This is based on the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Policy Statement on Hash Functions dated August 5, 2015. Further guidance on the use of SHA-256 is in NIST Special Publication (SP) 800-57 Part 1, section

5.6.2 as amended and SP 800-131A, Revision 1 dated November 6, 2015. Additional guidance on the use of SHA-3 is in NIST SP 800-185 as amended.

(f) Contractors do not have to update documents previously digitally signed using SHA-1 hash algorithms unless the document requires updating. The FAA and contractors may continue to use SHA-1 for the following applications:

Verifying old digital signatures and time stamps, generating and verifying hash-based message authentication codes (HMACs), key derivation functions (KDFs), and random bit/number generation.

3.3.1-33 SYSTEM FOR AWARD MANAGEMENT (JUL 2018)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause

"Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number" means the 9-digit number assigned by Dun and Bradstreet, Inc. (D&B) to identify unique business entities.

"Data Universal Numbering System +4 (DUNS+4) number" means the DUNS number assigned by D&B plus a 4-character suffix that may be assigned by a business concern. (D&B has no affiliation with this 4-character suffix.)

This 4-character suffix may be assigned at the discretion of the business concern to establish additional SAM records for identifying alternative Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) accounts for the same parent concern.

"Registered in the SAM database" means that the Contractor has entered all mandatory information, including the DUNS number or the DUNS+4 number, into the SAM database.

"System for Award Management (SAM) Database" means the primary Government repository for Contractor information required for the conduct of business with the Government.

(b)(1) By submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges the requirement that a prospective awardee must be registered in the SAM database prior to award, during performance, and through final payment of any contract, basic agreement, basic ordering agreement, or blanket purchasing agreement resulting from this solicitation.

(2) The offeror must enter, in Representations, Certifications and Other Statements of Offerors Section of the solicitation, the DUNS or DUNS +4 number that identifies the offeror's name and address exactly as stated in the offer. The DUNS number will be used by the Contracting Officer to verify that the offeror is registered in the SAM database.

(c) If the offeror does not have a DUNS number, it should contact Dun and Bradstreet directly to obtain one.

(1) An offeror may obtain a DUNS number

(i) If located within the United States, by calling Dun and Bradstreet at 1-866-705-5711 or via the Internet at http://fedgov.dnb.com/webform; or

(ii) If located outside the United States, by contacting the local Dun and Bradstreet office.

(2) The offeror should be prepared to provide the following information:

(i) Company legal business.

(ii) Tradestyle, doing business, or other name by which your entity is commonly recognized.

(iii) Company Physical Street Address, City, State, and ZIP Code.

(iv) Company Mailing Address, City, State and ZIP Code (if different from physical street address).

(v) Company Telephone Number.

(vi) Date the company was started.

(vii) Number of employees at your location.

(viii) Chief executive officer/key manager.

(ix) Line of business (industry).

(x) Company Headquarters name and address (reporting relationship within your entity).

(d) If the offeror does not become registered in the SAM database in the time prescribed by the Contracting Officer, the Contracting Officer may proceed to award to the next otherwise successful registered offeror.

(e) Processing time, which normally takes 48 hours, should be taken into consideration when registering. Offerors who are not registered should consider applying for registration immediately upon receipt of this solicitation.

(f) The Contractor is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the data within the SAM database, and for any liability resulting from the Government's reliance on inaccurate or incomplete data. To remain registered in the SAM database after the initial registration, the Contractor is required to review and update on an annual basis from the date of initial registration or subsequent updates its information in the SAM database to ensure it is current, accurate and complete. Updating information in the SAM does not alter the terms and conditions of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed contractual document. If registered in SAM as a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), by submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges that they are designated as a SDVOSB by the Department of Veterans Affairs, and this designation appears as such on the Veteran Affairs website, https://www.vip.vetbiz.gov.

(g)(1)(i) If a Contractor has legally changed its business name, "doing business as" name, or division name (whichever is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets used in performing the contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements regarding novation and change-of-name agreements in AMS Procurement Guidance, the Contractor must provide the responsible Contracting Officer a minimum of one business day's written notification of its intention to:

(A) change the name in the SAM database;

(B) comply with the requirements of AMS regarding novation and change-of-name agreements; and

(C) agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the responsible Contracting Officer. The Contractor must provide the Contracting Officer with the notification, sufficient documentation to support the legally changed name.

(ii) If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (g)(1)(i) of this clause, or fails to perform the agreement at paragraph (g)(1)(i)(C) of this clause, and, in the absence of a properly executed novation or change-of-name agreement, the SAM information that shows the Contractor to be other than the Contractor indicated in the contract will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the "Suspension of Payment" paragraph of the electronic funds transfer (EFT) clause of this contract.

(2) The Contractor must not change the name or address for EFT payments or manual payments, as appropriate, in the SAM record to reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims. Assignees must be separately registered in the SAM database. Information provided to the Contractor's SAM record that indicates payments, including those made by EFT, to an ultimate recipient other than that Contractor will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the "Suspension of payment" paragraph of the EFT clause of this contract.

(h) Offerors and Contractors may obtain information on registration and annual confirmation requirements via the internet at http://www.sam.gov.

(End of Clause)

3.3.1-36 AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS - OPTION PERIODS UNDER A CONTINUING RESOLUTION

The Government is not obligated to reimburse the Contractor in excess of the amount from time to time allotted to the contract, regardless of anything to the contrary in "Termination for Convenience of the Government."

(c) Funds presently allotted to this contract are estimated to cover the work to be performed until [CO to insert data].

If funds allotted are considered by the Contractor to be inadequate to cover the work to be performed until this date, or an agreed substitute date, the Contractor must notify the Contracting Office in writing when within the next 30 days the work will reach a point at which, in the event of termination of this contract pursuant to "Termination for Convenience of the Government," the total amount payable by the Government pursuant to paragraph (e) below, will approximate 85 percent of the total amount then allotted to the contract. The notice must state the estimated date when this point will be reached and the estimated amount of additional funds required to continue performance to the above or an agreed substitute date. The Contractor must, 30 days prior to the date above written or agreed substitute date, advise the Contracting Officer in writing as to the estimated amount of additional funds which will be required for the timely performance of the CLINs for a further period as may be specified in this clause or otherwise agreed to by the parties. If after this notification, additional funds are not allotted by the date above written or by an agreed substitute date, the Contracting Officer will, upon written request of the Contractor, terminate this contract on such date or the date set forth in the request, whichever is later, pursuant to "Termination for Convenience of the Government."

(d) When additional funds are allotted for continued performance of the CLINs, the parties will agree on the applicable period of contract performance that will be covered by such funds. Paragraphs (b) and (c) above apply to the additional allotted funds and agreed substituted date and the contract will be modified accordingly.

(e) If the Contractor incurs additional costs, or is delayed in the performance of the work under this contract, solely by the reason of the failure of the Government to allot additional funds in amounts sufficient for the timely performance of this contract, and if additional funds are allotted, an equitable adjustment will be made in the price or prices (including appropriate target, billing, and ceiling prices where applicable) of the CLINs, in the time of delivery, or in both. Failure to agree to any such equitable adjustment hereunder will be a dispute concerning a question of fact within the meaning of the "Contract Disputes" Clause.

(f) The Government may at any time prior to termination, and with the consent of the Contractor, after notice of termination, allot additional funds for this contract.

(g) The provisions of this clause with respect to termination will in no way be deemed to limit the rights of the Government under the applicable AMS "Default" clause. The provisions of this clause are limited to the work on and allotment of funds for the CLIN(s) in paragraph (a) above. This clause no longer applies upon the allotment of funds for the total price of the CLINs except for rights and obligations existing under this clause.

(h) Nothing in this clause will affect the right of the Government to terminate this contract pursuant to "Termination for Convenience of the Government." In the event of a conflict between this clause and any other term or condition of this contract, this clause will take precedence.
