About this file
This document is an Amendment of Solicitation/Modification of Contract for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for replacing fire smoke dampers and actuators at the Tri-Cities Airport Traffic Control Tower in Blountville, TN. The amendment (No. 0003) is dated 09/10/2025 and includes several key updates: providing reference drawings dated 6/7/2012 for the HVAC replacement, updating a clause related to electronic submission of payment requests in accordance with Executive Order 14173, and addressing a vendor question about equipment needs. The amendment specifies that no high-reach equipment like lifts will be needed, and all work can be performed using a ladder with 8ft ceiling heights. The attached 60-page drawing set provides technical details for the HVAC replacement project.
A significant new requirement is the incorporation of Clause 3.3.1-40 for Electronic Submission of Payment Requests, which mandates contractors use the Delphi eInvoicing web-portal accessed through login.gov for invoice submissions. The clause includes detailed requirements for invoice content, including a new mandatory statement affirming the contractor does not operate diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives inconsistent with recent Supreme Court interpretations of equal protection principles. Contractors must register for the system, maintain an active account, and follow specific documentation and authentication procedures when submitting invoices.

LIST OF CHANGES:
Section I - Contract Clauses was revised as follows.
Clause List was revised as follows.
Clause 3.3.1-40 is incorporated as follows:
3.3.1-40 ELECTRONIC SUBMISSION OF PAYMENT REQUESTS (INTERIM SEPTEMBER 2025)
(a) Definitions. As used in this clause—
(1) “Contract financing” is a contractual authorization for payments to a contractor prior to acceptance of products or services by FAA.
(2) “Payment request” means a bill, voucher, invoice, or request for contract financing payment or invoice payment with associated supporting documentation. The payment request must comply with the requirements identified in this clause and the applicable Payment clause and invoicing requirements included in this contract.
(3) “Electronic form” means an automated system transmitting information electronically according to the accepted electronic data transmission methods and formats identified in paragraph (c) of this clause. Facsimile, email, and scanned documents are not acceptable electronic forms for submission of payment requests.
(4) “Invoice payment” means a Government disbursement of monies to a contractor under a contract or other authorization for supplies or services accepted by the Government. This includes payments for partial deliveries that have been accepted by the Government, final payments under T&M and labor-hour contracts, and final cost or fee payments where amounts owed have been settled between the Government and the contractor.
(b) Electronic payment requests. Except as provided in paragraph (f) of this clause, the Contractor must submit payment requests in electronic form. Purchases paid with a Government purchase card are considered to be an electronic transaction for purposes of this rule, and therefore no additional electronic invoice submission is required.
(c) The Federal Aviation Administration utilizes the Delphi eInvoicing web-portal for processing invoices.
Contractors submitting invoices are required to submit invoices via the Delphi eInvoicing web portal which is accessed and authenticated via www.login.gov
(d) In order to receive payment and in accordance with prompt payment standards, the Contractor must submit a proper invoice. All invoices submitted as attachments in the Delphi eInvoicing web-portal must contain the following:
(1) Invoice number and invoice date.
(2) Period of performance covered by invoice.
(3) Contract number and title.
(4) Task/Delivery Order number and title (if applicable).
(5) Amount billed (by CLIN), current and cumulative.
(6) Total ($) of billing.
(7) Cumulative total billed for all contract work to date.
(8) Name, title, phone number, mailing address, and email address (if available) of person to be contacted in the event of a defective invoice.
(9) The following statement: “The Contractor affirms that it does not operate any diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives that are inconsistent with the Equal Protection principles of the Constitution and the non-discrimination requirements of Federal law, as interpreted by the Supreme Court in Students for Fair Admissions
v. Harvard, 600 U.S. 181 (2023).”
Note: The statement in item (9) in the preceding list is only required for invoices submitted to receive payment for contract performance occurring after this AMS clause 3.3.1-40 Electronic Submission of Payment Requests (INTERIM September 2025) is included in the contract.
697DCK-25-R-00364/0003
If the contract includes allowances for travel, all invoices that include charges pertaining to travel expenses must catalog a breakdown of reimbursable expenses with the appropriate receipts to substantiate the travel expenses.
(e) Payment system registration. Each person accessing the Delphi eInvoicing web-portal will be required to have a unique user Delphi eInvoicing ID and password and be credentialed through login.gov.
(1) Electronic authentication. See www.login.gov for instructions. Click on the following link for instructions on establishing a login.gov account: https://login.gov/help/creatingan-account/how-do-i-create-an-account-with-logingov/.
(2) To create a login.gov account, the user will need a valid email address and a working phone number.
The user will create a password and then login.gov will reply with an email confirming the email address.
(3) DELPHI registration instructions. New users should request access to Delphi eInvoicing by sending an email to 9-AMC-FAA-iSupplier@faa.gov. Once access is granted, users should navigate to http://einvoice.esc.gov to activate the account. Users are required to log in every 45 days to keep it active.
(4) Training on DELPHI. To facilitate use of DELPHI, comprehensive user information is available at http://einvoice.esc.gov
(5) Account Management. Contractors must contact the DELPHI Help Desk when their firm’s points of contact will no longer be submitting invoices so they can be removed from the system. Instructions for contacting the DELPHI Help D can be found at http://einvoice.esc.gov
(f) Waivers: If the Contractor does not believe electronic invoicing can be used if they are awarded this contract, the Contractor must respond accordingly to AMS clause 3.3.1-41 Electronic Invoicing-Representation. Waiver requests must be approved by the FAA and DOT and will be processed expeditiously upon contract award. If the waiver request is not approved, the Contractor must use electronic invoicing consistent with this clause. If the waiver request is approved, conversion to electronic invoicing at a later date may be required. While the waiver is in effect, the current invoicing process must be used per AMS Guidance T3.3.1A.14 and the terms of the contract. The decision regarding a waiver request is not subject to AMS clause 3.9.1-1 Contract Disputes.
