Ombudsman Language: Notice for Filing Agency Protests

NOTICE FOR FILING AGENCY PROTESTS

United States Coast Guard Ombudsman Program

It is the policy of the United States Coast Guard (USCG) to issue solicitations and make contract awards in a fair and timely manner. The Ombudsman Program for Agency Protests (OPAP) was established to investigate agency protest issues and resolve them without expensive and time-consuming litigation. OPAP is an independent reviewing authority that is empowered to grant a prevailing protester essentially the same relief as the Government Accountability Office (GAO).

Interested parties are encouraged to seek resolution of their concerns within the USCG as an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) forum rather than filing a protest with the GAO or some external forum. Interested parties may seek resolution of their concerns informally or opt to file a formal agency protest with the Contracting Officer or Ombudsman.

Informal Forum with the Ombudsman. Interested parties who believe a specific USCG procurement is unfair or otherwise defective should first direct their concerns to the applicable Contracting Officer. If the Contracting Officer is unable to satisfy their concerns, interested parties are encouraged to contact the U.S. Coast Guard Ombudsman for Agency Protests. Under this informal process, the agency is not required to suspend contract award performance. Use of an informal forum does not suspend any time requirement for filing a protest with the agency or other forum. In order to ensure a timely response, interested parties should provide the following information to the Ombudsman: solicitation/contract number, contracting office, Contracting Officer, and solicitation closing date (if applicable).

Formal Agency Protest with the Ombudsman. Prior to submitting a formal agency protest, protesters must first use their best efforts to resolve their concerns with the Contracting Officer through open and frank discussions. If the protester's concerns are unresolved, an Independent Review is available by the Ombudsman. The protester may file a formal agency protest to either the Contracting Officer or as an alternative to that, the Ombudsman under the OPAP program.

Contract award or performance will be suspended during the protest period unless contract award or performance is justified, in writing, for urgent and compelling reasons or is determined in writing to be in the best interest of the Government. The agency's goal is to resolve protests in less than 35 calendar days from the date of filing. Protests shall include the information set forth in FAR 33.103(d) (2). If the protester fails to submit the required information, resolution of the protest may be delayed or the protest may be dismissed. To be timely protests must be filed within the period specified in FAR 33.103(e). Formal protests filed under the OPAP program should be submitted electronically to OPAP@uscg.mil and the Contracting Officer or by hand delivery to the Contracting Officer.

Election of Forum. After an interested party protests a Coast Guard procurement to the Contracting Officer or the Ombudsman, and while the protest is pending, the protester agrees not to file a protest with the GAO or other external forum.

If the protest is filed with an external forum, the agency protest will be dismissed.

This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) subpart 12.6 and subpart 13.5 as supplemented with additional information included in this notice.

This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotations are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. Solicitation number 70Z08024QPBPL0036 is issued as a Request for Quotations (RFQ). This solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) through Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) 2024-05 effective 22 April 2024; Department of Homeland Security Acquisition Regulation (HSAR) effective 21 July 2023; Homeland Security Acquisition Manual (HSAM) 2024- 02 effective 29 December 2023; Coast Guard Acquisition Procedures (CGAP) 2023-01 effective 08 May2023.

(2) If performance time is extended due to Government-caused delay, the contractor may request an equitable adjustment for providing temporary services at the rate stated in the Schedule.

AIR Growth Work

(a) This clause applies to Additional Item Requirements (AIR), also known as growth and emergent work ordered by the Contracting Officer pursuant to the Changes - Ship Repair clause or mutually agreed upon by the parties. The contractor shall perform AIR at the labor billing rates designated in the Schedule, as described in paragraph (c) of this clause. The AIR handling fee designated in the Schedule shall be the sole fee used for direct material purchases and subcontractor handling.

The estimated quantity of labor hours and handling fees represent theGovernment's best estimate for growth that may be required throughout the contract performance period. All growth work shall be paid at the prices stated in the Schedule.

(b) The contractor shall take into account the potential for ordering all estimated AIR quantities in developing the Production Schedule. The ordering of any portion of the AIR quantities does not in itself warrant an extension to the original contract completion date; however, for planning purposes, the Government anticipates ordering AIR in accordance with the following schedule:

(1) No more than 75% of the hours during the first half of the contract period of performance.

(2) No more than 50% of the hours during the third quarter of the contract period of performance.

(3) No more than 30% of the hours during the fourth quarter of the contract period of performance.

(c) The AIR labor rate shall be a flat, hourly rate to cover the entire effort and shall be burdened to include:

(1) Direct production labor hour functions only. Direct production labor hours are hours of skilled labor at the journeyman level expended in direct production. Direct production is defined as work performed by a qualified craftsman that is directly related to the alteration, modification, or repair of the item or system identified as needing alteration, modification, or repair. The following functions are identified as direct production: Abrasive Cleaning/Water Blasting, Tank Cleaning, Welding, Burning, Brazing, Blacksmithing, Machining (inside and outside), Carpentry, Electrical/Electronic Work, Crane Operation, Shipfitting, Lagging/Insulating, Painting, Boilermaking, Pipe Fitting, Engineering (Production), Sheetmetal Work, Staging/Scaffolding, and Rigging.

(2) Non-production labor hours (whether charged directly or indirectly by contractor's accounting system) shall be for labor in support of production functions. For purposes of this clause, support functions are defined as functions that do not directly contribute to the alteration, modification, or repair of the item or system identified as needing alteration, modification, or repair.

Necessary support functions should be priced into the burdened rate for production labor hours. Examples of support functions include: Testing, Quality Assurance (inspection), Engineering (support), Planning (including involvement of craft foreman/journeyman in planning a task), Estimating (including determination of necessary materials and equipment needed to perform a task), Material Handling, Set-up (moving tools and equipment from shop to ship to perform a task), Fire Watch, General Labor (including general support of journeyman tasks), Cleaning (including debris pickup and removal), Surveying, Security, Transportation, Supervision, and Lofting (sail/pattern making).

(d) Additional Item Requirements do not include replacement work performed pursuant to the Inspection and Manner of Doing Work or Guarantees clauses.

(e) It is the Government's intention to award any growth work identified during the repair to the contractor, if a fair and reasonable price can be negotiated for such work, based upon Schedule rates. If a fair and reasonable price cannot be negotiated, the Government may, at its discretion, obtain services outside of the contract. Such services may be performed while the ship is undergoing repair in the contractor's facility pursuant to the Access to Vessels clause.

(f) The contractor shall submit to the Contracting Officer the following information in all AIR proposals:

(1) Number of labor hours estimated; broken down by specific direct production labor category.

(2) Material estimates, individually broken out and priced. When requested by the Contracting Officer, material quotes shall be provided.

(3) Subcontractor estimates, individually broken out and priced along with the actual subcontractor quotes. The requirement to submit subcontractor quotes may be waived if deemed appropriate by the Contracting Officer.

(4) Material/subcontractor handling fee and the basis for the fee.

(g) The contractor shall not be entitled to payment for any hours ordered pursuant to this clause until such time as a written contract modification is executed.

This clause applies to Change Requests (CR), also known as growth and emergent work ordered by the Contracting Officer pursuant to the Changes clause. The Contractor shall perform the CR at the labor billing rates designated in the Schedule, as described in paragraph (2) of this clause. All growth work shall be paid at the prices stated in the Schedule.

(2) The CR composite labor rate is a flat, hourly rate used to price direct production labor hours. Contractors shall provide a detailed breakdown that fully supports the quoted CR composite labor rate. The CR composite labor rate shall be burdened to include the cost of direct production labor, all associated indirect costs, and profit/fee as described below:

a. Direct production labor is defined as work that is directly related to the alteration, modification, and repair tasks performed directly on, or in direct support of, components or systems identified in the CR or elsewhere in the contract. Examples of direct production labor include the following: abrasive cleaning/water blasting, tank cleaning, welding, burning,brazing, blacksmithing, machining (inside and outside), carpentry, electrical/electronic work, crane operation, shipfitting, lagging/insulating, painting, boilermaking, pipe fitting, engineering (production), sheet metal work, installation and removal of staging/scaffolding, rigging, material handling (shop to ship and within the worksite in support of labor task), set-up (moving tools and equipment from shop to ship to perform a task), fire watch, general labor (including general support of journeyman tasks), cleaning (including debris pickup and removal), and pattern making.

b. Indirect costs are defined as all non-direct production costs and support functions, defined as functions that do not directly contribute to the alteration, modification, or repair of the item or system identified. Examples of indirect costs include the following: planning, estimating, supervision, management, ship superintendent functions, clerical, surveying, security, transportation, supervision, labor costs, worker-compensation, taxes, inventory control, warehousing, licensing, insurance, all other support items and functions, fixed asset costs, rentals on items normally owned as fixed assets such as tools and hand operated power tools, electrical generators and compressors for operating tools (for drydocks), jigs and fixtures fabricated and used in shop to support production functions, security, contractor facility upkeep and utilities, workman's compensation, taxes, office supplies, etc.

c. Direct consumables and expendables: supply items, manufactured or procured by the Contractor that are consumed or expended in conjunction with direct production (e.g. rags, gloves, respirators/masks, etc.)

(3) Detailed pricing for the following shall be priced and itemized separately to include all costs and profit/fee as described below and shall not be included in the CR composite labor rate:

a. Direct materials: supply items, manufactured or procured by the Contractor, that are installed in conjunction with direct production, or are otherwise turned over to the Coast Guard (e.g. plate, angle iron, welding rods, paint, pumps, motors, engine and gearbox oil, engine jacket water, etc.)
