G.1 Submission and Payment of Invoices All invoices must be submitted electronically via email to PSAInvoices-Accounting@psa.gov as specified in PSA Clause 52.232-70.
For invoices at or below $150,000, the Government reserves the right to make payment by Government Purchase Card pursuant to FAR 52.232-36, Payment by Third Party, at its discretion. In such case, an authorized PSA Purchase Card holder shall contact the vendor and provide the purchase card information, at which time the vendor may charge payment to the credit card.
If the contractor does not accept payment by Government Purchase Card, or does not desire to accept payment by Government Purchase Card, the contractor must clearly state so in its quotation, offer, or proposal. Acceptance or non-acceptance of payment by Government Purchase Card shall have no bearing on award decision.
G.2 Commitment of Public Funds The Contracting Officer is the only individual who can legally commit the Government to the expenditure of public funds in connection with the proposed acquisition. Any other commitment made, either explicit or implied, is invalid.
Section H - Special Contract Requirements
Section I - Contract Clauses
PSA200-70 On-Site Working Conditions (SEP 2013)
(a) PSA facilities are smoking restricted workplaces. Due to the nature of the work, facilities, and requirements, contractor staff may only smoke outside in designated smoking areas.
(b) Unless otherwise specified elsewhere in the contract documents, the normal operating hours are between 7:00 am to 5:30 pm, Monday through Friday.
(c) Government personnel observe the following days as holidays:
New Year's Day January 1 *
Martin Luther King's Birthday Third Monday in January
President's Day Third Monday in February
Memorial Day Last Monday in May
Independence Day July 4*
Labor Day First Monday in September
Columbus Day Second Monday in October
Veterans Day November 11
Thanksgiving Day Fourth Thursday in November
Christmas Day December 25*
* If the date falls on a Saturday, the Government holiday is the preceding Friday. If the date falls on a Sunday, the Government holiday is the following Monday.
(d) In addition to the days designated as holidays, the Government observes the following days:
• Any other day designated by Federal Statute
• Any other day designated by Executive Order
• Presidential Inauguration Day
• Any other day designated by the President's Proclamation
(e) It is understood and agreed between the Government and the Contractor that observance of such days by Government personnel shall not otherwise be a reason for an additional period of performance, or entitlement of compensation except as set forth within the contract. In the event the Contractor's personnel work during the holiday, they may be reimbursed by the Contractor, however, no form of holiday or other premium compensation will be reimbursed either as a direct or indirect cost, other than their normal compensation for the time worked. This provision does not preclude reimbursement for authorized overtime work if applicable to this contract.
(f) When the Federal, State, Local or other Governmental entity grants excused absence to its employees, assigned Contractor personnel may also be dismissed. The Contractor agrees to continue to provide sufficient personnel to perform critical tasks already in operation or scheduled, and must be guided by the instructions issued by the CO or COR.
(g) If Government personnel are unavailable due to furlough or any other reason, the Contractor must contact the CO or the COR to receive direction. It is the Government's decision as to whether the contract price/cost will be affected. Generally, the following situations apply:
(1) Contractor personnel who are able to continue contract performance (either on-site or at a site other than their normal workstation), must continue to work and the contract price shall not be reduced or increased.
(2) Contractor personnel who are not able to continue contract performance (e.g., support functions) may be asked to cease their work effort. This may result in a reduction to the contract price.
PSA204-70 Announcement of Contract Award (SEP 2013) PSA complies with FAR 5.3, Synopses of Contract Awards, in terms of synopsizing and publicly announcing contract awards.
These actions take place at the time of, and not before, the contract is awarded. Contract award, in this case, means signature of the contractual document by the Contracting Officer and forwarding of the contractual document to the contract awardee. If the contract awardee wishes to make a separate public announcement, the awardee must obtain the approval of the Contracting Officer prior to releasing the announcement, and must plan to make announcement only after the contract has been awarded.
PSA209-70 Contractor Performance Capabilities (SEP 2013) The Contractor must be capable of performing all the tasks described in the Statement of Work. The Government shall not be liable for any costs or other involvement in the purchase, repair, maintenance or replacement of Contractor items used to implement or comply with requirements of the contract. Likewise, the Government shall in no way be held accountable by the Contractor for the Contractor's inability to perform under this Contract due to Government technology implementations and or changes.
PSA209-73 Standards of Conduct (SEP 2013)
(a) Personnel assigned by the contractor to the performance of work under this order must be acceptable to the Government in terms of personal and professional conduct. Contractor personnel shall conform to standards of conduct as follows:
(1) No contractor employees shall solicit new business while performing work under this order.
(2) The contractor and its employees shall not discuss with unauthorized persons any information obtained in the performance of work under this order.
(b) Should the continued assignment to work under this order of any person in the contractor's organization be deemed by the Contracting Officer to conflict with the interests of the Government, that person shall be removed immediately from assignment, and the reason for removal shall be fully documented in writing by the Contracting Officer. Employment and staffing difficulties shall not be justification for failure to meet established schedules, and if such difficulties impair performance, the contractor may be subject to default.
PSA228-70 Insurance (SEP 2013)
(a) In accordance with FAR 52.228-5, "Insurance-Work on a Government Installation (JAN 1997)" incorporated by reference, the Contractor must secure, pay the premiums for and keep in force until the expiration of this contract, and any renewal thereof, adequate insurance of the types and in the amounts as specified under FAR 28.3.
(b) Each policy of insurance must contain an endorsement that any cancellation or material change in the coverage adversely affecting the Government's interest must not be effective unless the insurer or the Contractor gives written notice of cancellation or change, as required by the CO. When the coverage is provided by self-insurance, the Contractor shall not change or decrease the coverage without the CO's prior approval.
(c) A certificate of each policy of insurance must be furnished to the CO within ten (10) days after notice of award certifying, among other things, that the policy contains the aforementioned endorsement. The insurance company providing the above insurance must be satisfactory to the Government. Notices of policy changes shall be furnished to the CO. The substance of this clause must be made to flow down to any subcontractors.
PSA239-70 Information Security (MAR 2016) All electronic data containing personally identifiable information (PII) regarding PSA staff, defendants and/or clients, must reside within the boundaries of the PSA/CSOSA data center. Vendors are prohibited from creating, processing, and/or storing electronic data and information containing personally identifiable information (PII) regarding PSA staff, defendants and/or clients on other than government-owned and furnished computing equipment. To clarify, vendors may not create, process, or store electronic data and information containing personally identifiable information (PII) regarding PSA staff, defendants and/or clients on the company computer systems, servers, laptops, mobile devices, smartphones, USB drives, or any online or cloud storage or file back-up system (including by not limited to Dropbox, Google Docs, iCloud, SkyDrive, Mozy, etc.). As appropriate, vendors will obtain PSA network and computer systems user accounts, including capabilities for secure remote access where appropriate, and be subject to all agency policies and operational instructions regarding information security and privacy. In the case of secure remote access, the vendor would access the secure PSA/CSOSA network via their company or personal computers; however all electronic data and information creation, processing, and storage must occur only on PSA/CSOSA servers and information systems via the secure remote connection. Any exceptions must be formally approved in writing by the PSA Chief Information Officer (CIO), the Records Management Officer, and formally distributed to the vendor in writing via the authorized PSA Contracting Officer. If exceptions are granted, specific information security and privacy requirements will be determined and formally provided to the vendor, via a formal modification to the contract, at time of approval. Such requirements will include at minimum, compliance with the Federal Information Security Management Act, privacy Act of 1974, and other applicable laws, regulations, policies and requirements.
The term "personally identifiable information" refers to information which can be used to distinguish or trace an individual's identity, such as their name, social security number, biometric records, etc. alone, or when combined with other personal or identifying information which is linked or linkable to a specific individual, such as date and place of birth, mother's maiden name, etc.
Data Security: Loss and/or Disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information (PII) - Notification of Data Breach
By acceptance of, or performance on, this contract, the contractor agrees that in the event of any actual or suspected breach of such data (i.e., loss of control, compromise, unauthorized disclosure, access for an unauthorized purpose, or other unauthorized access, whether physical or electronic), the contractor will immediately (and in no event later than within one hour of discovery) report the breach to PSA's Chief information Officer and the Contracting Officer's Technical Representative (COR) or Contracting Officer (CO). Points of Contact shall be provided at time of award.
PSA212-70 Invoice Requirements (DEC 2016)
(a) All invoices must be submitted electronically to PSA-Invoices-Accounting@psa.gov and must contain, at a minimum, the information required by FAR Subpart 52.212-4(g). Invoices not received at the email address above and/or not containing the minimum information required at FAR 52.212-4(g) may be subject to return by the Agency and may result in delay of payment.
(b) Invoices shall be submitted in a timely manner, but not later than 30 calendar days after delivery of goods or performance of service.
(c) Contractor's final invoice shall be clearly marked as the FINAL INVOICE.

(e) Definitions. The clause at FAR 52.202-1, Definitions, is incorporated herein by reference.

The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer in writing as soon as it is reasonably possible after the commencement of any excusable delay, setting forth the full particulars in connection therewith, shall remedy such occurrence with all reasonable dispatch, and shall promptly give written notice to the Contracting Officer of the cessation of such occurrence.

(1) Unless exempted by an addendum to this contract, the Contractor is responsible during performance and through final payment of any contract for the accuracy and completeness of the data within the SAM database, and for any liability resulting from the Government's reliance on inaccurate or incomplete data. To remain registered in the SAM database after the initial registration, the Contractor is required to review and update on an annual basis from the date of initial registration or subsequent updates its information in the SAM database to ensure it is current, accurate and complete. Updating information in the SAM does not alter the terms and conditions of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed contractual document.
(2)
(i) If a Contractor has legally changed its business name, "doing business as" name, or division name (whichever is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets used in performing the contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements regarding novation and change-of-name agreements in Subpart 42.12, the Contractor shall provide the responsible Contracting Officer a minimum of one business day's written notification of its intention to:
(A) Change the name in the SAM database;
(B) Comply with the requirements of Subpart 42.12 of the FAR;
(C) Agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the responsible Contracting Officer.
The Contractor must provide with the notification sufficient documentation to support the legally changed name.
(ii) If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (t)(2)(i) of this clause, or fails to perform the agreement at paragraph (t)(2)(i)(C) of this clause, and, in the absence of a properly executed novation or change-of-name agreement, the SAM information that shows the Contractor to be other than the Contractor indicated in the contract will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the " Suspension of Payment" paragraph of the electronic funds transfer (EFT) clause of this contract.
(3) The Contractor shall not change the name or address for EFT payments or manual payments, as appropriate, in the SAM record to reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims (see FAR Subpart 32.8, Assignment of Claims). Assignees shall be separately registered in the SAM database. Information provided to the Contractor's SAM record that indicates payments, including those made by EFT, to an ultimate recipient other than that Contractor will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the "Suspension of payment" paragraph of the EFT clause of this contract.
(4) Offerors and Contractors may obtain information on registration and annual confirmation requirements via SAM accessed through https://www.acquisition.gov.
(u) Unauthorized Obligations.
(1) Except as stated in paragraph (u)(2) of this clause, when any supply or service acquired under this contract is subject to any End Use License Agreement (EULA), Terms of Service (TOS), or similar legal instrument or agreement, that includes any clause requiring the Government to indemnify the Contractor or any person or entity for damages, costs, fees, or any other loss or liability that would create an Anti-Deficiency Act violation (31 U.S.C. 1341), the following shall govern:
(i) Any such clause is unenforceable against the Government.
(ii) Neither the Government nor any Government authorized end user shall be deemed to have agreed to such clause by virtue of it appearing in the EULA, TOS, or similar legal instrument or agreement. If the EULA, TOS, or similar legal instrument or agreement is invoked through an "I agree" click box or other comparable mechanism (e.g., "click-wrap" or "browse-wrap" agreements), execution does not bind the Government or any Government authorized end user to such clause.
(iii) Any such clause is deemed to be stricken from the EULA, TOS, or similar legal instrument or agreement.
(2) Paragraph (u)(1) of this clause does not apply to indemnification by the Government that is expressly authorized by statute and specifically authorized under applicable agency regulations and procedures.
(v) Incorporation by reference. The Contractor's representations and certifications, including those completed electronically via the System for Award Management (SAM), are incorporated by reference into the contract.
(End of Clause)
Alternate I (May 2014) When a time-and-materials or labor-hour contract is contemplated, substitute the following paragraphs (a), (e), (i), (l), and (m) for those in the basic clause.
(a) Inspection/Acceptance.
(1) The Government has the right to inspect and test all materials furnished and services performed under this contract, to the extent practicable at all places and times, including the period of performance, and in any event before acceptance. The Government may also inspect the plant or plants of the Contractor or any subcontractor engaged in contract performance. The Government will perform inspections and tests in a manner that will not unduly delay the work.
(2) If the Government performs inspection or tests on the premises of the Contractor or a subcontractor, the Contractor shall furnish and shall require subcontractors to furnish all reasonable facilities and assistance for the safe and convenient performance of these duties.
(3) Unless otherwise specified in the contract, the Government will accept or reject services and materials at the place of delivery as promptly as practicable after delivery, and they will be presumed accepted 60 days after the date of delivery, unless accepted earlier.
(4) At any time during contract performance, but not later than 6 months (or such other time as may be specified in the contract) after acceptance of the services or materials last delivered under this contract, the Government may require the Contractor to replace or correct services or materials that at time of delivery failed to meet contract requirements. Except as otherwise specified in paragraph (a)(6) of this clause, the cost of replacement or correction shall be determined under paragraph (i) of this clause, but the "hourly rate" for labor hours incurred in the replacement or correction shall be reduced to exclude that portion of the rate attributable to profit. Unless otherwise specified below, the portion of the "hourly rate" attributable to profit shall be 10 percent. The Contractor shall not tender for acceptance materials and services required to be replaced or corrected without disclosing the former requirement for replacement or correction, and, when required, shall disclose the corrective action taken. [Insert portion of labor rate attributable to profit.]
(5)
(i) If the Contractor fails to proceed with reasonable promptness to perform required replacement or correction, and if the replacement or correction can be performed within the ceiling price (or the ceiling price as increased by the Government), the Government may—
(A) By contract or otherwise, perform the replacement or correction, charge to the Contractor any increased cost, or deduct such increased cost from any amounts paid or due under this contract; or
(B) Terminate this contract for cause.
(ii) Failure to agree to the amount of increased cost to be charged to the Contractor shall be a dispute under the Disputes clause of the contract.
(6) Notwithstanding paragraphs (a)(4) and (5) above, the Government may at any time require the Contractor to remedy by correction or replacement, without cost to the Government, any failure by the Contractor to comply with the requirements of this contract, if the failure is due to--
(i) Fraud, lack of good faith, or willful misconduct on the part of the Contractor's managerial personnel; or
(ii) The conduct of one or more of the Contractor's employees selected or retained by the Contractor after any of the Contractor's managerial personnel has reasonable grounds to believe that the employee is habitually careless or unqualified.
(7) This clause applies in the same manner and to the same extent to corrected or replacement materials or services as to materials and services originally delivered under this contract.
(8) The Contractor has no obligation or liability under this contract to correct or replace materials and services that at time of delivery do not meet contract requirements, except as provided in this clause or as may be otherwise specified in the contract.
(9) Unless otherwise specified in the contract, the Contractor's obligation to correct or replace Government-furnished property shall be governed by the clause pertaining to Government property.

(B) Except as provided for in paragraph (i)(1)(ii)(A) and (D)(2) of this clause, the Government will reimburse the Contractor the actual cost of materials (less any rebates, refunds, or discounts received by the contractor that are identifiable to the contract) provided the Contractor—

(2) Total cost. It is estimated that the total cost to the Government for the performance of this contract shall not exceed the ceiling price set forth in the Schedule and the Contractor agrees to use its best efforts to perform the work specified in the Schedule and all obligations under this contract within such ceiling price. If at any time the Contractor has reason to believe that the hourly rate payments and material costs that will accrue in performing this contract in the next succeeding 30 days, if added to all other payments and costs previously accrued, will exceed 85 percent of the ceiling price in the Schedule, the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer giving a revised estimate of the total price to the Government for performing this contract with supporting reasons and documentation.
