D) GSFC 52.209-301 NOTICE OF POTENTIAL ORGANIZATIONAL CONFLICTS OF

INTEREST (MAR 2019)

(a) Notice. The Contracting Officer (CO) has determined that this acquisition may give rise to an organizational conflict of interest (OCI). Accordingly, the attention of prospective Offerors is invited to FAR Subpart 9.5 --Organizational Conflicts of Interest. The CO shall not award a contract until NASA determines any OCI is reasonably resolved. The CO has the sole authority to determine whether an OCI exists and to determine whether the conflict has been reasonably resolved. The OCI Submission, comprised of the Offeror’s OCI Assessment and its OCI Plan, will not be evaluated as part of the Mission Suitability Factor (if applicable). The OCI Plan will be considered in determining the contractor’s responsibility to perform this contract. As such, the Government may conduct exchanges with any Offeror at any time during the evaluation process concerning its OCI Submission. A NASA CO approved OCI Plan shall be required in order for a contractor to be eligible for award of this contract.

The proposed OCI Plan shall be consistent with all other areas of the proposal. Material inconsistencies between the OCI Plan and other proposal areas may render the proposal invalid, resulting in an unacceptable proposal that is ineligible for award. The proposed OCI Plan is not page limited. The plan shall be included as part as the proposal Offer Volume, or as a separate attachment, consistent with the solicitation instructions.

(b) Description of Potential Conflict. The nature of this OCI is:

TBD

(c) Responsibility of Offeror.

(1) Applying the principles of FAR Subpart 9.5, each Offeror shall assess whether there is an OCI associated with the proposal it submits. The Offeror must explain the actions it intends to use to resolve any OCI identified by the Government or identified through its own assessment.

(2) Offerors shall inform the CO of any potential conflicts of interest, including those involving contracts with other Government organizations, as part of the OCI Submission in paragraph (g) below. The CO will use this information to determine whether resolution of those conflicts will be required.

(3) If the Offeror’s proposed action to resolve an OCI is not acceptable, the CO will notify the Offeror, providing the reasons why its proposed resolution is not considered acceptable and allow the Offeror a reasonable opportunity to respond before making a final decision on the OCI.

In the event that the Offeror is not successful in resolving an identified conflict to the satisfaction of the CO, the Offeror may be determined to be ineligible for award.

(d) Representation. By submission of its offer, the Offeror represents, to the best of its knowledge and belief, that –

(1) there are no relevant facts that could give rise to an OCI, as defined in FAR Part 2; or

(2) the Offeror has disclosed all relevant information regarding any actual or potential conflicts of interest.

(e) Termination for default or termination for cause. If the successful Offeror was aware, or should have been aware, of an OCI before award of this contract and did not fully disclose that conflict to the CO, the Government may terminate the contract for default or cause.

(f) Waiver. The agency reserves the right to waive the requirements of FAR 9.5, in accordance with FAR 9.503.

(g) The Offeror’s OCI Submission, which will be considered part of the Offer Volume, shall contain the following:

(1) OCI Assessment. The Offeror shall identify any organizational interests (financial, contractual or other) that would be affected by performance of the Statement of Work requirements, whether by it or its proposed subcontractors. This includes recently performed (within 2 years prior to the proposal due date), currently performed, or planned work (including future competitive proposals), whether as a prime contract holder or a subcontractor.

A. The Offeror shall include a list of all of its and its proposed subcontractor’s NASA contracts and subcontracts in its submission. For each contract and subcontract listed by the prime contractor and its subcontractor, the Offeror shall: (1) identify the contract number; (2) identify the name, address, and telephone number of the customer(s); (3) describe the scope of work in sufficient detail to ascertain the likelihood of a conflict with performance of the SOW requirements of this contract; and (4) discuss any potential conflicts arising from performance of the listed contracts and award of this contract.

B. For non-NASA contracts, the Offeror shall list any of its and its proposed subcontractor’s contracts or subcontracts that may give rise to an OCI. For each contract and subcontract listed, the Offeror shall: (1) identify the contract by number and name; (2) identify the name, address, and telephone number of the customer(s); and (3) describe the potential conflict.

C. For financial or other conflicts that could arise from performance of the SOW requirements of this contract, the Offeror shall address the nature and extent of the financial interest and any entity or entities involved in the financial relationship.

D. If any of the interests identified above may give rise to a conflict or potential conflict, the Offeror shall address how it will avoid, neutralize, or mitigate the OCI. Sufficient information must be provided to allow a meaningful evaluation of the potential effect of the interest on the performance of the statement of work.

(2) OCI Plan. The Offeror shall submit an OCI Plan that, once approved by the CO, will be incorporated into any resulting contract. The Plan shall contain the following:

A. Demonstration of ability to define and properly identify the three types of organizational conflicts of interest that may arise (Unequal Access to Information, Biased Ground Rules, and Impaired objectivity).

B. Identification and description of company roles, responsibilities, and procedures for screening (i.e., identifying/recognizing, analyzing/evaluating, resolving, and reporting) existing and new business opportunities for actual/potential OCIs.

C. Description of how the Offeror intends to notify employees of the requirements of this plan and to document that employees received such notice. To the extent this requirement is accomplished through employee training, the Plan shall include a copy of the template to be used for training certification.

E. Description of how the Offeror will report any breaches to the CO, and implement any necessary corrective actions. The Plan should reflect that the Offeror will immediately implement any corrective action steps needed to negate or mitigate the impact of a breach, while also notifying the CO of the breach and coordinating its proposed corrective action approach with the CO as quickly as practicable. Final resolution of the corrective action must be approved by the CO.

F. Identification of any affiliated companies/entities (e.g., a parent company or a wholly-owned subsidiary) and procedures for coordinating OCIs with such affiliated companies/entities.

G. Reporting of all potential/actual OCIs identified during performance of the contract to the CO. An OCI report shall include (1) a description of the conflict, (2) the plan for resolving the conflict, and (3) the benefits/risks vis-à-vis contract performance associated with plan approval/acceptance.

H. Explanation of how the contractor will flow down the provisions of this mitigation plan to any subcontractor that may have a conflict with regard to performing the requirements of this contract.

I. Description of any organizational and employee sanctions for violations of established OCI procedures/requirements/guidelines.

J. Detailed discussion of neutralization, mitigation or avoidance measures for any conflict or potential conflict identified in the Offeror’s OCI Assessment provided in response to paragraph (g)(1) above.

K. Explanation of how the Plan will be updated to address OCIs that may arise during performance. The Plan should reflect that any updates must be approved by the CO and the updates/changes to the Plan must be incorporated in the contract to be effective.

L. As this contract contains NASA FAR Supplement clause 1852.237-72, Access to Sensitive Information, the Plan shall also address all items required by that clause, including:

i. Utilize any sensitive information coming into its possession only for the purpose of performing the services specified in its contract.

ii. Safeguard sensitive information coming into its possession from unauthorized use and disclosure.

iii. Allow access to sensitive information only to those employees that need it to perform services under its contract.
