• Building 7000: S4S, 816 13th Street, Vandenberg SFB, CA 93437

Clause Number

5352.201-9101 USSF

(a) An ombudsman has been appointed to hear and facilitate the resolution of concerns from offerors, potential offerors, and others for this acquisition. When requested, the ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality as to the source of the concern. The existence of the ombudsman does not affect the authority of the program manager, contracting officer, or source selection official. Further, the ombudsman does not participate in the evaluation of proposals, the source selection process, or the adjudication of protests or formal contract disputes. The ombudsman may refer the interested party to another official who can resolve the concern.

(b) Before consulting with an ombudsman, interested parties must first address their concerns, issues, disagreements, and/or recommendations to the contracting officer for resolution. Consulting an ombudsman does not alter or postpone the timelines for any other processes (e.g., agency level bid protests, GAO bid protests, requests for debriefings, employee-employer actions, contests of OMB Circular A-76 competition performance decisions).

(c) If resolution cannot be made by the contracting officer, the interested party may contact the ombudsman, for USSF (United States Space Force) acquisitions (excluding SMC acquisitions) please contact the Director of Contracts, Air Force Installation Contracting Center, Operating Location - Space (AFICC/KS OL-SPC) via the following e-mail workflow address: afica.ks.wf@us.af.mil.
