SECTION II CONTRACT CLAUSES

II.1 FAR 13 Blanket Purchase Agreement This solicitation is in accordance with FAR 13.303 Blanket purchase agreements (BPAs).

II.2 On Ramp Procedures The Government will review BPA performance and requirements on a regular basis (at least yearly) and determine the necessity of on ramping. The Government reserves the right to announce and issue a new solicitation for the purposes of:

(i) adding additional Contractors to expeditiously meet the requirement as the need for increased assessments materialize; or

(ii) increase the small business pool of Contractors; or

(iii) increase competition.

The Government may implement on-ramp procedures at any time by reopening the competition and utilizing the same basis of award established in the initial solicitation. Any resulting BPA(s) awarded will include the same terms and conditions as the current basic contract. Implementing this procedure will not affect the overall ordering period for the basic BPA.

II.3 Off Ramp Procedures The Government reserves the right to implement off-ramp procedures, which would result in the removal of BPA holders.

The criteria for off-ramping may include, but not limited to, BPA holders not proposing on order request(s), not having at least one order award, and/or unsatisfactorily meeting the SOW requirements. If implemented, off-ramp procedures will remove BPA holders by not exercising the next available ordering period or cancelling the BPA.
