ATTACHMENT 3 - NAVSEA PROVISIONS AND CLAUSES

B-215-H002 REFUNDS (SPARES AND SUPPORT EQUIPMENT) (NAVSEA) (OCT 2018)

(a) In the event that the price of a spare part or item of support equipment delivered under this contract significantly exceeds its intrinsic value, the Contractor agrees to refund the difference. Refunds will not be made to recoup the amount of cost decreases that occur over time due to productivity gains (excluding economic purchase quantity considerations) or changes in market conditions.

(b) For purposes of this requirement, the intrinsic value of an item is defined as follows:

(1) If the item is one which is sold or is substantially similar or functionally equivalent to one that is sold in substantial quantities to the general public, intrinsic value is the established catalog or market price, plus the value of any unique requirements, including delivery terms, inspection, packaging, or labeling.

(2) If there is no comparable item sold in substantial quantities to the general public, intrinsic value is defined as the price an individual would expect to pay for the item based upon an economic purchase quantity as defined in FAR 52.207-4, plus the value of any unique requirements, including delivery terms, inspection, packaging or labeling.

(c) At any time up to two years after delivery of a spare part or item of support equipment, the Contracting Officer may notify the Contractor that based on all information available at the time of the notice, the price of the part or item apparently exceeds its intrinsic value.

(d) If notified in accordance with paragraph (c) above, the Contractor agrees to enter into good faith negotiations with the Government to determine if, and in what amount, the Government is entitled to a refund

(e) If agreement pursuant to paragraph (d) above cannot be reached, and the Navy's return of the new or unused item to the Contractor is practical, the Navy, subject to the Contractor's agreement, may elect to return the item to the Contractor. Upon return of the item to its original point of Government acceptance, the Contractor shall refund in full the price paid. If no agreement pursuant to paragraph (d) above is reached, and return of the item by the Navy is impractical, the Contracting Officer may, with the approval of the Head of the Contracting Activity, issue a Contracting Officer's final decision on the matter, subject to Contractor appeal as provided in the "Disputes" clause (FAR 52.233-1).

(f) The Contractor shall make refunds, as required under this requirement, in accordance with instructions from the Contracting Officer.

(g) The Contractor shall not be liable for a refund if the Contractor advised the Contracting Officer in a timely manner that the price it would propose for a spare part or item of support equipment exceeded its intrinsic value, and with such advice, specified the estimated proposed price, the estimated intrinsic value and known alternative sources or item, if any, that can meet the requirement.

(h) This requirement does not apply to any spare parts or items of support equipment whose price is determined through adequate price competition. This requirement also does not apply to any spare part or item of support equipment if the Contractor submitted, and certified the currency, accuracy and completeness of, cost or pricing data applicable to the item

L-204-H003 NOTIFICATION OF USE OF NAVY SUPPORT CONTRACTORS FOR OFFICIAL CONTRACT FILES (NAVSEA)

(APR 2019)

(a) NAVSEA may use a contractor to manage official contract files hereinafter referred to as "the support contractor", including the official file supporting this procurement. These official files may contain information that is considered a trade secret, proprietary, business sensitive or otherwise protected pursuant to law or regulation, hereinafter referred to as “protected information”. File management services consist of any of the following: secretarial or clerical support; data entry; document reproduction, scanning, imaging, or destruction; operation, management, or maintenance of paper-based or electronic mail rooms, file rooms, or libraries; and supervision in connection with functions listed herein.

(b) The cognizant Contracting Officer will ensure that any NAVSEA contract under which these file management services are acquired will contain a requirement that

(1) The support contractor not disclose any information;

(2) Individual employees are to be instructed by the support contractor regarding the sensitivity of the official contract files;

(3) The support contractor performing these services be barred from providing any other supplies and/or services, or competing to do so, to NAVSEA for the period of performance of its contract and for an additional three years thereafter unless otherwise provided by law or regulation; and,

(4) In addition to any other rights the offeror may have, it is a third party beneficiary who has the right of direct action against the support contractor, or any person to whom the support contractor has released or disclosed Protected Information, for the unauthorized duplication, release, or disclosure of such Protected Information.

(c) Submission of a proposal will be considered as consent to NAVSEA's permitting access to any information, irrespective of restrictive markings or the nature of the information submitted, by its file management support contractor for the limited purpose of executing its file support contract responsibilities.

(d) NAVSEA may, without further notice, enter into contracts with other contractors for these services. Offerors are free to enter into separate non-disclosure agreements with the file support contractor. Contact the Procuring Contracting Officer for contractor specifics.

However, any such agreement will not be considered a prerequisite before information submitted is stored in the files or otherwise encumber the government.

L-209-H009 NOTIFICATION OF POTENTIAL ORGANIZATIONAL OR PERSONAL CONFLICT(S) OF INTEREST

(NAVSEA) (APR 2022)

(a) Offerors are reminded that certain existing contractual arrangements may preclude, restrict or limit participation, in whole or in part, either as a subcontractor or as a prime contractor under this competitive procurement. Of primary concern are those contractual arrangements in which the Offeror provides support to SERMC Code 900, or related laboratories (if applicable), in support of operation of the office or any of its programs. General guidance may be found in FAR 9.505; however, this guidance is not all-inclusive. The Offeror's attention is directed to the "Organizational Conflict of Interest" (OCI) or similar requirement which may be contained in current or completed contract(s) which prohibits the prime or subcontractor from providing certain supplies or services to the Government as described above during the period of the current "support" contract(s) or for a period after completion of the "support" contract(s). Notwithstanding the existence or non-existence of an OCI or similar requirement in current or completed contract(s), the Offeror shall comply with FAR subpart 9.5 and identify whether an OCI exists and not rely solely on the presence of an OCI or similar requirement.

(b) Offerors also are reminded that certain potential conflicts of interest may arise where an Offeror has unequal access to nonpublic information about a competitor that may provide the Offeror with an unfair competitive advantage and preclude, restrict or limit participation, in whole or in part, either of the individual, subcontractor or prime contractor under this competitive procurement. For example, a potential conflict may arise if former Department of Navy employee(s), subcontractors, or teaming partners of the Offeror may have gained access to nonpublic information about a competitor through participation in previous or ongoing performance or during the solicitation development/source selection process associated with this competitive procurement, and then participates in the formation of the Offeror’s proposal. Other potential conflicts of interest may arise where either the former Department of Navy employee(s), subcontractors, or teaming partners of the Offeror under this competitive procurement set the ground rules for competition; for example, by drafting specifications or assisting in the drafting of the statement of work. General guidance may be found in FAR 3.101 and 9.505; however, this guidance is not all-inclusive.

(c) If an Offeror identifies a potential conflict of interest that exists at any tier, that Offeror is requested to notify the Contracting Officer within 14 days of the date of this solicitation. The Offeror shall provide: (1) the contract or previous source selection’s solicitation number and name and phone number of the Contracting Officer for the contract which gives rise to a potential conflict of interest; (2) a copy of the requirement; (3) the statement of work and technical instruction from the existing contract, as applicable; (4) a brief description of the type of work to be performed by each subcontractor under the competitive procurement; (5) a brief description of the individual’s, subcontractor’s, or teaming partner’s unequal access to nonpublic information about a competitor, which may lead to a conflict of interest in the formation of the Offeror’s proposal, or establishment of ground rules for this competitive procurement, as applicable; (6) an OCI mitigation plan, as applicable; and (7) any additional information the Contracting Officer should consider in making a determination of whether a conflict of interest exists. The Government may independently verify the information received from the Offeror. The requirement to identify potential conflicts of interest as outlined herein continues until contract award. Notwithstanding the above, the Government reserves the right to determine whether a conflict of interest exists based on any information received from any source.

(d) The Government will notify an Offeror of any conflict of interest within 14 days of receipt of all required information. Those Offerors deemed to have a conflict of interest may be ineligible for award. Failure to provide the information in a timely manner does not waive the Government's rights to make a conflict of interest determination. The Offeror is notified that if it expends time and money on proposal preparation, such expenditure is at its own risk regardless of whether the Government determines a personal or organizational conflict of interest does or does not exist.

(e) Any potential prime contractor which proposes an individual, subcontractor, or teaming partner later determined to have a conflict of interest and deemed ineligible to participate in the current competition, may not be granted the opportunity to revise its proposal to remove the ineligible individual, subcontractor or teaming partner. The Government reserves the right to determine which Offerors remain in the competitive range through the normal source selection process.

(f) If the Offeror determines that a potential organizational and/or personal conflict of interest does not exist at any tier, the Offeror shall include a statement to that effect in its response to this solicitation.
