1.5.2 Quality Assurance: The government shall evaluate the contractor's performance under this contract in accordance with the quality assurance surveillance plan. This plan is primarily focused on what the government must do to ensure the contractor has performed in accordance with the performance standards.

1.5.9 Post-Award Conference or Periodic Progress Meetings: The contractor agrees to attend any post-award conference convened by the contracting activity or contract administration office in accordance with FAR Subpart 42.5. The KO, contracting officer's representative (COR), and other government personnel, as appropriate, may meet periodically with the contractor to review the contractor's performance. At these meetings, the KO will inform the contractor of how the government views the contractor's performance, and the contractor will describe problems, if any, being encountered.

and provide site-entry of contractor personnel. A letter of designation issued to the COR by the KO states the specific responsibilities and limitations of the COR. A copy of that appointment letter will be forwarded to the Contractor. The COR is not authorized to change any of the terms and conditions of this contract without written authority from the KO.

1.5.12 Contract Manager:

Part 2: DEFINITIONS AND ACRONYMS

Army Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (AFARS): Implements and supplements the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), the Defense FAR Supplement (DFARS) and the DFARS Procedures, Guidance and Information (PGI) to establish uniform policies for Army acquisition. It does not restrict the exercise of good business judgment or stifle innovation.

Contract Manager: A person appointed by the Contractor to be the primary point of contract to the Government in administration of the contracted services. The contract manager or alternate shall have full authority to act for the contractor on all contract matters relating to daily operation of this contract.

Contracting Officer (KO): A person with the authority to enter into, administer, and/or terminate contracts and make related determinations and findings. The term includes certain authorized representatives of the contracting officer acting within the limits of their authority as delegated by the contracting officer. “Administrative contracting officer (ACO)” refers to a contracting officer who is administering contracts. “Termination contracting officer (TCO)” refers to a contracting officer who is settling terminated contracts. A single contracting officer may be responsible for duties in any or all of these areas. Reference in this regulation (48 CFR Chapter 1) to administrative contracting officer or termination contracting officer does not—

(1) Require that a duty be performed at a particular office or activity; or

(2) Restrict in any way a contracting officer in the performance of any duty properly assigned.

Contracting Officer's Representative (COR): An individual, including a Contracting Officer’s Technical Representative (COTR), designated and authorized in writing by the contracting officer to perform specific technical or administrative functions.

Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation (DFAR): Implements and supplements the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), and the FAR’s, Procedures, Guidance, and Information to establish uniform policies for Department of Defense acquisition.

Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR): The FAR is the primary regulation for use by all Federal Executive agencies in their acquisition of supplies and services with appropriated funds. It became effective on April 1, 1984 and is issued within applicable laws under the joint authorities of the Administrator of General Services, the Secretary of Defense, and the Administrator for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, under the broad policy guidelines of the Administrator, Office of Federal Procurement Policy, Office of Management and Budget. The FAR precludes agency acquisition regulations that unnecessarily repeat, paraphrase, or otherwise restate the FAR, limits agency acquisition regulations to those necessary to implement FAR policies and procedures within an agency, and provides for coordination, simplicity, and uniformity in the Federal acquisition process. It also provides for agency and public participation in developing the FAR and agency acquisition regulation.

HQ: Headquarters

Integrated Pest Management Program (IPMP): The plan that includes all the rules, and regulation for the use of Pesticide, herbicide, and fertilizer, including what products can be used, how they will use, etc.

Part 3: SPECIFIC TASKS

3.1 Snow and Ice Removal

3.1.1 General

3.1.1.1 All snow removal/deicing services and deicing services are performed on an as needed basis at the request of the COR.

3.1.1.2 A copy of the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or Global Harmonization System (GHS) data sheet for any chemical deicer used will be provided to the COR at least 7 days in advance of any deicer application.

3.1.1.3 If snow removal/deicing services or deicing services are required, the COR will contact the Contract Manager and request that one of the services be performed.

3.1.2 Snow Removal: Snow Removal is estimated to be requested approximately 20 times per year.

3.1.2.1 Remove snow in parking lots and walkways at the HQ building property including the pathway out to the statue on the Southeast corner of the block.

3.1.2.2 Snow may be piled on the area adjacent to the walkways and parking lots but will not obstruct any walkways or driveways or pose a safety risk to pedestrians or vehicles.

3.1.2.3 After the snow has been removed, deicer (see section 3.1.4) will be applied on the parking lots and walkways to melt the remaining ice and improve traction.

3.1.2.4 The Contractor will provide the deicer (see section 3.1.4) necessary to accomplish this task.

Quantity must not exceed 1,300 lbs. Contact the COR if conditions require more than 1,300 lbs. of deicer per service call.

3.1.3 Deicing: Deicing alone is estimated to be requested approximately 25 times per year.

3.1.3.1 Remove the layer of ice from all walkways by scraping, shoveling, or other means to the point that a chemical deicer will melt the remaining ice.

3.1.3.2 Apply deicer (see section 3.1.4) to the walkways and parking lots to melt remaining ice and increase traction.

3.1.3.3 The Contractor will provide the deicer (see section 3.1.4) necessary to accomplish this task.

Quantity must not exceed 1,300 lbs. Contact the COR if conditions require more than 1,300 lbs. of deicer per service call.

3.1.4. Granular Ice Melt:

3.1.4.1 The Contractor will furnish granular ice melt that indicates it is environmentally friendly. Use a product containing calcium magnesium acetate. No rock salt will be applied as this causes damage to concrete and vegetation.

3.1.4.2 The Contractor will ensure that the granular ice melt material is applied at rates to maximize effectiveness and minimize waste. Special care should be used when applying material at building entrances to avoid excessive buildups. A general rule of thumb is to use a half-cup (approximately 4 oz.)

of ice melt per square yard, however, every ice melt product is different. Refer to manufactures recommendation for application instructions before using the product.
