Delivery. BPA holders shall strive to meet delivery requirements of Government customers. The expected delivery schedule at the Call level is 60 business days after placement of order, unless otherwise stated. The Government will not accept any late delivery of any appliance absent a written modification to the order by the Contracting Officer, to include consideration from the BPA holders to the Government for such an extension to the delivery date. If there are any delivery issues, BPA holders shall proactively address them with the requiring activity and the ordering activity.
12. CALL ORDERING PROVISION
The following ordering procedures apply to all Calls issued under this multiple award BPA. The Government will order any Supplies to be furnished under this multiple award BPA by issuance of Calls. In addition:
a. Only an authorized CO, an authorized representative (authorized caller) of a CO or a GPC holder can issue a Call under this multiple award BPA.
b. An authorized CO, the authorized representative (authorized caller) or a GPC holder can place a Call for one or several types of commercial European household appliances covered by this multiple award BPA.
c. All Calls are subject to the terms and conditions of the multiple award BPA. In the event of conflict between a Call and the multiple award BPA, the multiple award BPA takes precedence.
d. Under this multiple award BPA, the Government will award fixed priced orders at the Call level. The Government may place calls in Euros, British Pounds, or US Dollars depending on the country and the contractor. The Government will apply the current budget exchange rate at time of call award and will use this rate for price comparison. (Reference: see page 183 of "Operaton and Maintenance Overview of Budget Estimates" https://comptroller.defense.gov/Portals/45/Documents/defbudget/fy2020/fy2020_OM_Overview.pdf
e. All cost associated with marketing, quotation preparation, presentation, submission, and negotiation in response to any delivery request or Call shall be at the BPA holder's expense and will not be allowable as a direct charge. The BPA holders shall not direct charge the Government for post award Call administration.
f. All BPA holders will be given the opportunity to compete for Calls or GPC buys exceeding the micro-purchase threshold ($10K) unless one of the exceptions at FAR 6 applies or a statute expressly authorizes or requires that the purchase be made from a specified source. Ordering activities may make GPC buys up to $25K.
g. BPA holders shall perform no work and the Government will make no payment except as authorized by a Call or by a GPC buy. The BPA holder shall not proceed with any work pursuant to this section until a Call is issued by the appropriate Contracting Officer, an authorized representative of a CO (authorized caller) or a GPC holder. The Contracting Offices using the BPAs are responsible to establish an authorized callers list. No work shall be performed and no payment will be made except as authorized by a call. This list will be updated annually and shall be provided by the Contracting Offices to 764 ESS on an annual basis from the establishment of the BPAs. This list will be provided by 764 ESS to the BPA holders during the annual review.
h. The Government's selection decision on each Call evaluation shall be final.
i. The Government reserves the right to make award of the BPAs and Calls without discussions.
j. The Government will make Call award(s) or GPC buys to the BPA holder who is determined to best meet the needs of the Government at the best price. Lowest price technically acceptable is the Government's basis for award. The caller or GPC holder shall inform the BPA holders of the basis of award at time of soliciting a Call or GPC buy.
k. The Government will evaluate Call offers in accordance with FAR 13.106-2(b) and FAR 15.402. In case adequate competition does not exist the Government will use other proposal analysis techniques IAW 15.404-1 (b)(2) in order to justify prices fair and reasonable.
l. Ordering activities may place non-competitive GPC orders up to the micro-purchase threshold ($10K).
Although ordering activities are not required to solicit from a specific number of schedule contractors, the Government encourages them to attempt to distribute GPC buys among the different BPA holders.
13. ON-RAMP PROCEDURES
The Government reserves the right to enter into BPAs with additional BPA holders at any time during the ten
(10) year term of the Appliances BPA. The Government intends to review the need for additional BPA holders periodically in order to sustain competition at the Call level. If the Government determines that additional BPA holders are needed, the Government may on-ramp new BPA holders in order to keep the eligible pool of BPA holders viable. When an on-ramp is used, the Government will advertise the request for additional BPA holders on beta.SAM.gov. The evaluation and selection of BPA holders for any on-ramp will follow the evaluation criteria used for the initial European household appliances BPAs. Any new BPA holders will compete with any remaining BPA holders for all Calls in accordance with the Ordering Guide. Any changes in the number and composition of BPA holders due to on-ramps will not impact the overall maximum term of the original BPAs (i.
e., the term of the original BPAs will not extend past the ten (10) year term established at initial agreement). The Government will not consider unsolicited requests for addition of BPA holders to the agreement.
14. OFF-RAMP PROCEDURES
The Government, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to off-ramp a BPA holder by notifying (via email or other written notice) the BPA holder of the Government's intention to cancel their BPA. BPA cancellation does not release the BPA holder from the duty to continue performance on Calls placed prior to the effective date of BPA cancellation. Ongoing orders will continue in accordance with their own period of performance, even if the Government cancels the underlying BPA.
The Government will provide a 30-day written notice to any BPA holder it intends to off-ramp. However, it is the Government's intent to maintain a pool of BPA holders to ensure competition at the Call level for the duration of the BPA ordering period. Any BPA cancelled will be at no cost to the Government and shall not constitute a basis for an adjustment or a claim under the Disputes clause.
