DOI-AAAP-0050 CONTRACTOR PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT REPORTING

SYSTEM (DEC 2015)

FAR 42.1502 directs all Federal agencies to collect past performance information on contracts. The Department of the Interior (DOI) has implemented the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) to comply with this regulation. One or more past performance evaluations will be conducted in order to record your contract performance as required by FAR 42.15.

1) The past performance evaluation process is a totally paperless process using CPARS. CPARS is a web-based system that allows for electronic processing of the performance evaluation report. Once the report is processed, it is available in the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) for Government use in evaluating past performance as part of a source selection action.

2) We request that you furnish the Contracting Officer (CO) with the name, position title, phone number, and email address for each person designated to have access to your firm's past performance evaluation(s) for the contract no later than 30 days after award. Each person granted access will have the ability to provide comments in the Contractor portion of the report and state whether or not the Contractor agrees with the evaluation, before returning the report to the Assessing Official (AO). Information in the report must be protected as source selection sensitive information not releasable to the public.

3) When your Contractor Representative(s) are registered in CPARS, they will receive an automatically generated email with detailed login instructions.

Further details, systems requirements, and training information for CPARS is available at https://www.cpars.gov/.

4) Within 60 days after the end of a performance period, the AO will complete an interim or final past performance evaluation, and the report will be accessible at https://www.cpars.gov/.

a) Contractor Representatives may then provide comments in response to the evaluation, or return the evaluation without comment.

b) Your comments should focus on objective facts in the AO's narrative and should provide your views on the causes and ramifications of the assessed performance.

c) All information provided should be reviewed for accuracy prior to submission.

d) If you elect not to provide comments, please acknowledge receipt of the evaluation by indicating "No comment" in the space provided, and then selecting “Accept the Ratings and Close the Evaluation”.

e) Your response is due within 60 calendar days after receipt of the CPAR. On day 15, the evaluation will become available in PPIRS-RC marked as “Pending” with or without comments and whether or not it has been closed.

f) If you do not sign and submit the CPAR within 60 days, it will automatically https://www.cpars.gov/ https://www.cpars.gov/ be returned to the Government and will be annotated: "The report was delivered/received by the contractor on (date). The contractor neither signed nor offered comment in response to this assessment."

5) The following guidelines apply concerning your use of the past performance evaluation:

a) Protect the evaluation as source selection information. After review, transmit the evaluation by completing and submitting the form through CPARS. If for some reason you are unable to view and/or submit the form through CPARS, contact the CO for instructions.

b) Strictly control access to the evaluation within your organization. Ensure the evaluation is never released to persons or entities outside of your control.

c) Prohibit the use of or reference to evaluation data for advertising, promotional material, pre-award surveys, responsibility determinations, production readiness reviews, or other similar purposes.

6) If you wish to discuss a past performance evaluation, you should request a meeting in writing to the CO no later than seven days following your receipt of the evaluation. The meeting will be held in person or via telephone or other means during your 60-day review period.

7) A copy of the completed past performance evaluation will be available in CPARS for your viewing and for Government use supporting source selection actions after it has been finalized.

END OF CLAUSES

Statement of Work

1.0 Background

1.1 Background: Provo Area Office Force Account (PAO FA) provide in-house construction services on Reclamation facilities, and on facilities of other federal agencies. These services vary widely from embankment dam repair work to wetland construction and restoration. The location of construction also varies and may be located anywhere in the 17 western states. The purpose of this contract is to provide for the heavy equipment rental needs of the Upper Colorado Region, particularly the PAO FA. Award of contract may be to a single Contractor, or to multiple Contractors.

In addition to the Provo Force Account, other regions in the Bureau employ Engineering Equipment Operators for various tasks associated with their regional missions. This includes maintaining the levees and roads along the Lower Colorado and Rio Grande Rivers. Other tasks within the Bureau may include snow removal at high mountain facilities or road maintenance on remote sites. The intent of this contract is to have one or multiple contractors fulfill the heavy equipment rental needs of the Provo Force Account, along with the needs of the various other offices who will have equipment rental requirements. The Contracting Officer’s Representative, who will be the supervisor for the Provo Force Account, will manage workflow for the entire contract, unless otherwise delegated. This includes preparing and submitting delivery orders for other regions within the Bureau.

Examples of work locations over the past 5 years include the following:

Planet Ranch, Planet, AZ DUCA, Blythe, CA

MVCA, Needles, CA Provo River Delta, Provo, UT Stewart Lake, Jensen, UT Grand Coulee Dam, WA Jordan River, South Jordan, UT Fontenelle Dam, Wyoming Ochoco Dam, OR Folsom Dam,Sacramento, CA Echo Dam, UT Seminoe Dam, WY LDRWM, Myton, UT Jackson Lake Dam, WY Minidoka Dam, ID McKay Dam, Pendleton, OR Prosser Dam, Truckee, CA Red Fleet Dam, UT

Las Vegas Wash, Henderson, NV Moapa, NV Parker Dam, CA/AZ Blythe, CA Imperial Dam, CA/AZ Beal Lake, AZ Yuma Meadows, Yuma, AZ Chama, NM Canyon Ferry, MT Cook Lake Dam, WY Davis Dam, NV/AZ Santa Clara Pueblo, NM

2.0 Objectives

2.1 Heavy Equipment Rental and Delivery: The contractor shall be responsible for furnishing all materials, labor and equipment necessary to deliver, set-up and lease equipment listed in the bid schedule. The Government will pay fully loaded freight charges for delivery and return of any single piece of equipment up to 300 miles, (600 loaded miles total – 300 miles delivery and 300 miles return), where the need is determined fair, reasonable, and necessary to meet the requirements of this document – Meaning it is not fair or reasonable for the Government to pay for 300 miles of a shipment of a piece of equipment, when the Contractor has, or has access to, a comparable piece of equipment 50 miles away.

If a Delivery Order is issued for equipment delivery beyond 300 miles from the

Contractor’s equipment source, it will be the responsibility of the prime contractor to coordinate supply, and delivery of requested equipment, per requirements contained herein, at the rates prescribed in the bid schedule. This may result in the need for the prime Contractor to subcontract portion of work requirement under this contract. Subcontractor shall meet all requirements under this contract.

The situation may arise where the contractor is able to deliver equipment from beyond 300 miles for a smaller freight charge than local sources. As part of the Delivery Order process, the contractor shall submit to the government documentation that verifies local and long-distance freight charges.

2.2 Heavy Equipment Repair: The Government regularly provides some

Government owned equipment (see Attachment 2), in conjunction with leased equipment. On occasion Government equipment requires maintenance and repair work. As the need arises, the contractor shall, upon issuance of a Delivery Order, be responsible for repair services of Government fleet equipment. This may include onsite repair work, or equipment repair in the shop. Replacement parts will be paid by the Government and shall be OEM or certified equal.

3.0 Scope

3.1 Due to the nature of construction and staging, the required rental periods may vary slightly. In the event the equipment is returned earlier than indicated in a Delivery Order, the Government shall not be charged – i.e. the Government shall be charged only for time equipment is “on rent”. Equipment is considered “off rent” when the Contractor receives a call from the COR requesting termination of rental period for a specific piece of equipment, and equipment pick-up.

Force Account crews work a schedule consisting of 10 days on, followed by 4 days off. This amounts to 20 working days per month (4 weeks). Consequently, it is implied that the monthly (4-week) rate shall only include 20 working days.

For Delivery Orders greater than 1 month (4 weeks) that include a partial month, contractor shall prorate the partial month at the monthly (4 week) rate, not the higher weekly rate. For Delivery Orders less than 1 month (4 weeks), the contractor shall prorate the partial week at the higher weekly rate. Formulas for calculating prorated amounts are shown below:

Monthly Prorate = �𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀ℎ𝑙𝑙𝑙𝑙 𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑟

20 𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑 � × (𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛 𝑜𝑜𝑜𝑜 𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑)

Weekly Prorate = �𝑊𝑊𝑊𝑊𝑊𝑊𝑊𝑊𝑊𝑊𝑊𝑊 𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑟

5 𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑 � × (𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛 𝑜𝑜𝑜𝑜 𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑)

Equipment considered unacceptable, under Section 4.2 of this SOW by the COR shall be removed from the site and replaced with equipment meeting the standards outlined in this document at no additional charge to the Government. Rental will not begin until all inspections have been made and the equipment is approved by the Government supervisor onsite. Inspection of equipment will be conducted within 24 hours of the delivery date required by the Delivery order, beginning at 11:00AM of the required delivery date.

4.2 Contractor Requirements

The contractor shall be capable of responding to calls for onsite repair of any piece of leased equipment included as part of the subject contract within 6 hours of a service call, or replace the piece of equipment within 24 hours of the service call, unless otherwise specified greater in issued Delivery Order.

4.2.1 Equipment shall be in excellent condition with all components in excellent working order. “Excellent” working order implies all equipment features, including the unit’s intended design function systems, environmental control system (heating, air conditioning), hydraulic systems, mechanical systems, etc., shall fully perform to their intended and corresponding function.

4.2.2 Equipment shall have less than 3,000 hours on the original meter and engine.

Equipment shall be models no older than 5 years, unless otherwise approved by the COR. Equipment shall meet all Federal, State and Local emission requirements for the location it will be operated, as well as any other site-specific regulations. If this information is not included in the equipment service records, it shall be included with submittal 4.2.4A.

4.2.3 Upon request, the contractor shall provide the Government with service records for each corresponding unit of equipment offered for lease (Submittal 4.2.4A).

4.2.4 Contractor shall take outbound photos of each piece of equipment detailing front, rear, and both profile views, prior to delivery. Outbound photo documentation shall be transmitted to the COR within 5 days of delivery.

4.2.5 The contractor shall have an established equipment and maintenance yard no further than 300 miles from the project location to provide necessary services within the timeframes designated in this document. This requirement may be subcontracted to other dealers or franchises in the local area, provided the equipment service and maintenance meets the timeframes required in this document.

4.3 After equipment has been delivered, the Government will provide fuel and required daily maintenance per manufacturers’ recommendations.

4.4 All repair costs and costs associated with providing replacement equipment shall be included in the bid schedule price. Backup units utilized in the event of primary failure shall be at no additional cost to the Government. If equipment is not repaired within 24 hours, it shall be taken off rent, and the Government will not be charged rent on the inoperable unit until all repairs have been made.

4.5 Each piece of equipment shall include, upon delivery, a full tank of fuel and all necessary equipment essential for performance of the equipment per its intended function and use.

4.6 Equipment must have been serviced prior to delivery. Upon request, contractor shall provide proof that this has taken place according to the operators’ manual and/or supplier, per Table - Item 4.2.4A of Section 6.0.

4.7 Equipment must be pressure washed and have no oil and/or fuel leaks, any damaged hoses; fittings, etc. Any damage and/or leaks must be repaired prior to delivery.

4.9 Contractor shall provide scheduled (250, 500 hour) servicing of equipment, per manufacturers’ recommendations. If the equipment is onsite, the Contractor shall coordinate servicing of equipment such that the government operators experience no lost production time, i.e. provide substitute equipment while maintenance is performed.

4.10 All equipment requiring an operator shall be provided with an enclosed cab. The cab shall be clean, and devoid of any defects that can impact operation of the equipment, i.e. all components within cab shall be fitted with original parts and pieces, or manufacturer original parts. Exceptions for soil compactors or similar pieces of equipment with unenclosed cabs may be made on a case-by-case basis on approval by the COR.

4.11 The contractor shall take and store “outbound” photos of all equipment prior to delivering to the jobsite. Photos shall be used as a basis in determining responsibility for damage incurred while the equipment is on rent to the government. The government shall also take and store photos of any equipment damage that occurs while the equipment is on rent to the government, as well as noticeable damage that may be present on the equipment when it is delivered, but prior to use.

4.12 The Provo Force Account group owns and uses the Trimble Earthworks grade control platform, marketed and serviced by Sitech. Sitech is a company jointly owned by Caterpillar and Trimble. Earthworks is primarily marketed and distributed through Caterpillar brand equipment and may have compatibility/integration issues with competing equipment manufacturers and grade control software. Most of the government owned Trimble/Earthworks equipment is permanently installed in government owned machines. However, we do own additional hardware, referred to as “cab kits” that can be easily installed in tech ready Caterpillar equipment. There will be occasions when the government will require a piece of equipment to be delivered tech ready for immediate plug and play with the Trimble TD520 Control Box/Display and the Trimble MS995 Receivers. This would require the contractor to provide tech ready Caterpillar or equal equipment in that instance or demonstrate that a piece of equipment from a competing manufacturer can readily accept the Trimble

Earthworks hardware. This generally would be limited to a D6 Dozer, a 325 Excavator, a 336 Excavator, a 352 Excavator, and a 140M AWD Grader. This list represents most used equipment but does not preclude the future requirement of Trimble grade control equipment on scrapers, tracked loaders, or other equipment capable of utilizing the system.
