2.3 OTHER PRICING

Other Pricing shall apply to Sections 2.3.1 through 2.3.5 and shall be incorporated into the contract as Attachment 3, Other Pricing.

2.3.1 DEMURRAGE

The Government will pay the Contractor demurrage for all delays in unloading propellant delivery tankers in excess of 4 hours after arrival and check-in at place of delivery if such delay is without the fault or negligence of the Contractor and is not caused by the failure of the Contractor's equipment. If more than one tanker is scheduled for the same arrival time, demurrage charges shall begin 4 hours after the arrival time of the last tanker in the group, and end at the release of the last tanker in the group. The demurrage charge shall be paid to the Contractor per quarter-hour or fraction thereof. No demurrage charges shall be billed or paid for the loading of any propellant delivery tankers. If the free time has been exceeded, the driver, upon leaving the site, shall leave the consignee written documentation showing the date, time of arrival, time of departure, cause of delay, if known, and information identifying the shipment.

The driver shall sign such documentation and shall request the consignee to do likewise. A copy thereof, as proof of delay, shall accompany all invoices for demurrage. The Contractor shall ensure that all deliveries from a multi-source operation shall be provided at the lowest overall cost to the Government.

(End of clause)

2.3.2 EMERGENCY DELIVERY

The Government will provide notice to the Contractor prior to requiring delivery of ordered product as set forth in Attachment 1, Statement of Work (SOW). Less than 48 hours’ notice shall incur a short notice emergency delivery charge at the price per tanker.

(End of clause)

2.3.3 HOT TANK FILL

A hot tank is a storage container which no longer contains any, or very little, cryogen and has warmed to ambient temperature. A hot tank fill procedure is necessary for safe chill-down. The additional costs for the hot tank fill are in the form of labor and travel expenses to provide Contractor expertise, when requested by the Government, to safely perform the hot tank fill.

2.3.4 INABILITY TO ACCEPT DELIVERY

When the Contractor makes a delivery to a destination and the delivery conveyance cannot be accepted due to storage tank problems or for other reasons under the control of the receiving organization, and through no fault of the Contractor, product charges will not be incurred;

however, transportation charges will be based on the round-trip miles at the transportation price per mile. The round trip mileage shall originate at the primary plant source identified in Attachment 2, Capability Form. If a delivery is cancelled by the Government enroute to the delivery location, the roundtrip mileage will be calculated based on the mileage incurred until the enroute cancellation takes place. Mileage will be based on a current internet mapping tool.

(End of clause)

2.3.5 SHORT NOTICE CHANGES

The Government acknowledges that requests for shipment of 5 tankers or more at one time requires extensive coordination by the Contractor and that short notice cancellation of delivery or short notice change of delivery results in additional costs to the Contractor. Therefore, cancelling an order less than 24 hours prior to scheduled delivery or altering the schedule more than 12 hours with less than 24 hours’ notice shall incur a charge at the price per tanker. This charge shall only be applicable to orders of 5 tankers or more to be delivered at the same time and to the same location.

2.4 PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATION

All requirements delivered under this contract shall be provided in accordance with the following performance specification, available online at the internet address referenced below:

(1) Compressed Gas Association (CGA) specification, CGA G-5.3-2017, “Commodity Specification for Hydrogen.” CGA specification documents are publicly available to prospective Offerors via the Compressed Gas Association Web Page:https://www.cganet.com.

(2) Product supplied shall fully meet the requirements of the applicable specification as indicated in the Supply Schedule, except as modified elsewhere in this contract.

(End of clause)

2.5 ORDERING PERIODS

The ordering periods of this contract are as follows:

Base Period: December 1, 2022, through November 30, 2024

Option Period 1: December 1, 2024, through November 30, 2025

(End of clause)

2.6 DELIVERY LOCATIONS

SECTION 3 CONTRACT CLAUSES

3.1 ADDENDUM TO FAR 52.212-4, CONTRACT TERMS AND CONDITIONS–

COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS AND COMMERCIAL SERVICES: TAILORED

PARAGRAPHS

Paragraph (a) is tailored to add the following paragraphs:

(3) Material Inspection and Receiving Report

At the time of each delivery under this contract, the Contractor shall furnish to the Government a Material Inspection and Receiving Report (DD Form 250 series or equivalent commercial document), prepared in duplicate (original and one copy). If the Contractor elects to use the DD Form 250, it shall be prepared in accordance with NASA FAR Supplement 1846.6. Note: Equivalent commercial document must contain the same level of detail/specificity as the DD Form 250.

Upon delivery of product to the destination, each copy of the Material Inspection and Receiving Report shall be signed and dated by the receiver. The original shall remain with the Contractor's driver making the delivery, and one copy shall be retained by the receiving destination as proof of delivery.

A legible copy of the applicable Contractor quantity delivered measurement ticket shall be attached to each copy of the Material Inspection and Receiving Report submitted for each delivery. The quantity delivered measurement ticket shall include the associated shipment number and tanker number as cross reference to the Material Inspection and Receiving Report. The foregoing documentation shall be submitted with all invoices.

Contractor shall overprint, in an appropriate space on each Material Inspection and Receiving Report, any applicable tanker unloading demurrage incurred in accordance with this contract. Such demurrage shall be certified by personnel of the receiving activity who are not in the employ of the Contractor. At the Government's option, and when available, Government personnel may be required to certify demurrage charges.

(4) Certificate of Conformance

A certificate of conformance shall accompany each delivery to verify product quality in accordance with the contract performance specification to include proper documentation and laboratory analysis from point of origin.

The Contractor's Designated Representative shall sign and date the certificate of conformance. Attach the certificate or enter it on the copy of the DD Form 250, or equivalent commercial document.

The certificate of conformance should be prepared as follows:

I certify that on ______ [date], _______[Contractor’s name] furnished the supplies called for by Contract No._____ via ____ [Carrier company name] on ________ [identify the bill of lading or shipping document number] in accordance with all applicable requirements of the contract.

I further certify that the supplies are of the quality specified and conform in all respects with the contract requirements, including specifications, and physical item identification, and are in the quantity shown on this or on the attached acceptance document.

Contractor Designated Representative

Signature: ____________________ Date: __________

Title: ___________________

(5) Determination of Billing

The delivered product price per unit includes all product and transportation costs for the quantities delivered and accepted. The unit price shall be F.O.B. destination. Scales or meters used in determining weight or volume shall be certified and must meet all specifications and user requirements and tolerance as stated in the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Handbook 44. Such scales or meters shall be calibrated annually, and records of this calibration shall be maintained for a minimum of one year and made available to the Contracting Officer or designated representative upon request. After delivery of product, quantity delivered in units measured by scale or meter shall be annotated on a DD Form 250 or equivalent commercial document. If units measured by scale or meter are not the same as the unit for the CLIN being supported, then the quantity delivered shall be converted into the same unit as the CLIN and also annotated. The Contractor may utilize a method of product measurement other than those set forth above, provided it is first approved and authorized in writing by the KSC Agency-wide Contracting Officer.

(6) Quality Assurance, Inspection and Acceptance

Unless otherwise directed by the Contracting Officer, in-process inspection, end-item inspection, and test verification shall be performed by the Contractor at the Contractor's facilities, to ensure compliance with the contract requirements. The Government may perform periodic inspections or audits at the Contractor’s facilities to verify, inspect, and ensure that supplies meet the contract requirements, including calibrations, process control monitoring, drawings, and specifications.

Any delivery location will have the option to sample hydrogen being delivered and analyze it for impurities prior to off-loading the transport vehicle or container. Such sampling shall be subject to demurrage charges, as applicable in accordance with this contract. If the sample does not meet specification requirements, the load will not be accepted and will be returned to the Contractor's facility for disposition. In case of non-acceptance, no product, transportation, demurrage, or any other costs will be charged to, or be paid by the Government.

The Contractor shall maintain records of inspections and tests performed on the items of this contract. All records and tests shall be traceable to the hydrogen delivered and shall include applicable tanker/trailer number, serial number, lot number, or any other acceptable method of identification. These records shall be made available to the Government, upon request, during the performance of this contract.

The Contractor shall develop and maintain documentation of a quality control program, including but not limited to: Plant operating procedures (as they relate to quality provisions); handling procedures; loading and off-loading of shipping conveyances;

storage; analytical instruments and scale calibrations; sampling; and analysis.

Operating plans or procedures shall be submitted to the Government upon request.

Final inspection and acceptance shall be accomplished at the receiving destination.

Acceptance shall occur upon signoff by the receiving destination on the appropriate material inspection and receiving report.

All applicable requirements that are invoked or applied to the customer’s purchasing document, including this clause, shall be flowed down to the organization’s sub-tier suppliers.

Paragraph (g) is tailored to add the following paragraphs:

(3) The Contractor shall submit all vouchers and invoices using the steps described at

NSSC’s Vendor Payment information web site at:

https://www.nssc.nasa.gov/vendorpayment. Please contact the NSSC Customer Contact Center at 1-877-NSSC123 (1-877-677-2123) with any additional questions or comments.

(4) Improper invoices. The NSSC Payment Office will notify the Contractor of any apparent error, defect, or impropriety in vouchers/invoices within seven calendar days of receipt by the NSSC Payment Office. Inquiries regarding requests for payment should be directed to the NSSC as specified in paragraph (3) of this Section.

(5) In the event that amounts are withheld from payment in accordance with provisions of this award, a separate payment request for the amount withheld will be required before payment for that amount may be made.

Paragraph (m) is tailored to add the following paragraphs:

(a) In the event the Contractor is unable to meet its delivery obligations from the specified sources, the Contractor may supply the deficient quantities from other sources at the price agreed to in Section 2.2 of this contract.

(b) If such deficient quantities are not so supplied, the Government may acquire liquid hydrogen from other sources to the level of the quantities deficient, and the Contractor shall pay the Government the difference between the delivered price from such other source and the applicable delivered price under Section 2.2 of this contract. In this situation, the Government will pay the full price for the spot delivery and may short pay the Contractor, on the next applicable invoice, an amount equal to the difference between the Contractor’s normal price to the Government, and the price the Government paid for the spot delivery.

(c) In the event the Contractor continues to fail to deliver, correct deficiencies, or comply with contract terms and conditions, the Government may invoke its right to terminate for cause.

Paragraph (o) is replaced as follows:

(o) Warranty.

The items delivered hereunder will meet the specifications defined in Section 2.4, Performance Specification. The Government may reject any item which does not meet the specifications and no charge will be made for the item so rejected. No claim of any kind with respect to the conformance of items to the foregoing specifications, whether or not based on negligence, warranty, strict liability, or any other theory of law, will be greater than the price of the quantity of nonconforming item(s) in respect to which such claim is made. The foregoing constitutes the Government’s exclusive remedy and the Contractor’s sole obligation with respect to any such claim for not meeting the specifications. “There are no express warranties by Contractor other than those specified in this section 52.212-4 (o). No warranties by Contractor (other than warranty of title as provided in the uniform commercial code) will be implied or otherwise created under the uniform commercial code including warranty of merchantability and warranty of fitness for a particular purpose.” This limited remedies section for failure to meet the expressed warranty stated herein shall have no application to or impact on the Government’s remedies under paragraph (m) Termination for cause of this section.
