1. One or multiple fueling point on the Island of Guam.
2. The Offeror may also propose bring a small fueling truck to the FEMA fleet yard twice a week to refuel the vehicles. However, a single fueling point will also be required during normal working hours for unforeseen circumstances.
FEMA requires that each vehicle fuel usage be tracked by License number.
1. If Multiple fueling points (such as a commercial Gas Station) are used, then an individual Fuel card will need to be provided for each vehicle.
2. If option two is used the Fleet Manager will record the fuel usage.
The Offeror will provide an invoice with a detailed record of fuel consumed, to include the plate number and fuel amount on a monthly basis to the FEMA finance center via e-mail for payment.
This requirement is scheduled for three (3) months and then extended month to month as long as the requirement is needed. The maximum estimated fuel usage is 2,800 gallons of standard unleaded gas.
The awarded will be made to the offeror who proposal is considered to be in the best interest of the government.
Technical Factor 1:
What Services is being provided and how it will be managed/tracked and how it best fits FEMA’s needs.
Price Factor 2:
Price/Cost. Any and all fees will be added to the price per gallon of Gas. The Purchase order will only have one (1) CLIN – Price per Gallon.
Technical factor is slightly more important than the Price Factor (Best Value Trade Off)

(1) Description of services to be performed.
(2) Time of performance (i.e., hours of the day, days of the week, etc.).
(3) Place of performance of the services.
(b) If any such change causes an increase or decrease in the cost of, or the time required for, performance of any part of the work under this contract, whether or not changed by the order, the Contracting Officer shall make an equitable adjustment in the contract price, the delivery schedule, or both, and shall modify the contract.
(c) The Contractor must assert its right to an adjustment under this clause within 30 days from the date of receipt of the written order. However, if the Contracting Officer decides that the facts justify it, the Contracting Officer may receive and act upon a proposal submitted before final payment of the contract.
(d) If the Contractor’s proposal includes the cost of property made obsolete or excess by the change, the Contracting Officer shall have the right to prescribe the manner of the disposition of the property.
(e) Failure to agree to any adjustment shall be a dispute under the Disputes clause. However, nothing in this clause shall excuse the Contractor from proceeding with the contract as changed.
