NAIHS-ACQ-08 CONTRACTING OFFICER’S REPRESENTATIVE AUG 2022

(a) Definition. “Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR)” means an individual designated in by the

Contracting Officer as authorized personnel responsible for the technical aspects of the contract and serves as technical liaison with the contractor. The COR is also responsible for the final inspection and acceptance of all deliverables and such other responsibilities as may be specified in the contract.

(End of Clause)

NAIHS-ACQ-09 UNAUTHORIZED COMMITMENTS SEP 2023

(a) Definitions.

Contracting Officer means a person with the authority to enter into, administer, and/or terminate contracts and make related determination and findings.

Ratification means the act of approving an unauthorized commitment by an official who has the authority to do so.

Unauthorized Commitment (UAC) means an agreement that is not binding solely because the Government representative who made it lacked the authority to enter into that agreement on behalf of the Government.

(b) Policy.

The Government is not bound by agreements with, or contractual commitments made to, prospective contractors by individuals who do not have delegated contracting authority. Unauthorized commitments do not follow the appropriate process for the expenditure of Government funds. Consequently, the Government may not be able to ratify certain actions, putting a contractor at risk for taking direction from a Federal official other than the contracting officer (see FAR 1.602-1) Government employees responsible for unauthorized commitments are subject to disciplinary action. Contractors perform at their own risk when accepting direction from unauthorized officials. Failure to follow statutory and regulatory processes for the expenditure of Government funds is a very serious matter.

(c) Procedure.

Any agreement, modification, or change to a contractual agreement made by a government personnel who lack authority will be deemed an unauthorized commitment. The Government is not liable to the Contractor or under the terms of the contract, financially or otherwise – unless the unauthorized commitment successfully passes the ratification process.

The ratification process does not have any lead time, nor does the Government make any promise that an unauthorized commitment will be ratified and, therefore, the Contractor would be paid. The Contractor proceeds at its own risk if any of the terms of the contract are altered, changed, or modified without the written concurrence by a Contracting Officer.

NAIHS-ACQ-10 CONTRACTOR PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT SEP 2023

(a) Policy. Past performance evaluations shall be prepared at least annually and at the time the work under a contract or order is completed.

States. These evaluations are generally for the entity, division, or unit that performed the contract or order.

Past performance information shall be entered into CPARS, the Government-wide evaluation reporting tool for all past performance reports on contracts and orders. Instructions for submitting evaluations into

CPARS are available at http://www.cpars.gov/.

(b) Applicability. The contracting office will evaluate and document contractor performance for the following types of actions:

(1) Contracts and orders for supplies or services that exceed the simplified acquisition threshold;

(2) Construction contracts that exceed $750,000;

(3) Architect-engineer services contracts of $35,000 or more;

(4) Any contract action in (b)(1), (b)(2), or (b)(3) less than the aforementioned thresholds but a modification increases their value to exceed the thresholds; and

(5) Any termination for default for construction or architect-engineer services regardless of value.

(c) Procedures.

(1) The contracting office shall –

a. Assign responsibility and management accountability for the completeness of past performance submissions.

b. Generally provide for input to the evaluations from the technical office, contracting office, program management office, and where appropriate, quality assurance and end users of the product or service;

c. Identify and assign past performance evaluation roles and responsibilities to those individuals responsible for preparing and reviewing interim evaluations, if prepared, and final evaluations

Those individuals identified may obtain information for the evaluation of performance from the program office, administrative contracting office, audit office, end users of the product or service, and any other technical or business advisor, as appropriate; and

d. Address management controls and appropriate management reviews of past performance evaluations, to include accountability for documenting past performance on CPARS.

(2) The evaluation should include a clear, non-technical description of the principal purpose of the contract or order. The evaluation should reflect how the contractor performed. The evaluation should include clear relevant information that accurately depicts the contractor’s performance, and be based on objective facts supported by program and contract or order performance data. The evaluations should be tailored to the contract type, size, content, and complexity of the contractual requirements.

(3) Evaluation factors for each assessment shall include, at a minimum, the following:

(a) Technical (quality of product or service).

(b) Cost control (not applicable for firm-fixed-price or fixed-price with economic price adjustment arrangements).

(c) Schedule/timeliness.

(d) Management or business relations.

(e) Small business subcontracting, including reduced or untimely payments to small business subcontractors when FAR 19.702(a) requires a subcontracting plan.

(e) Other (as applicable) (e.g., trafficking violations, tax delinquency, failure to report in accordance with contract terms and conditions, defective cost or pricing data, terminations, suspension and debarments, and failure to comply with limitations on subcontracting).

SPECIFICATIONS/STATEMENT OF WORK

HOSPITAL GRADE STERILE PROCESSING EQUIPMENT REPLACEMENT

CHINLE COMPREHENSIVE HEALTH CARE FACILITY -2025

I. Description of the work to be performed: To re-establish in-house sterile processing capabilities for the next decade, the Chinle Comprehensive Health Facility (CCHCF) needs contractors to manufacture, install, and provide one year of all-inclusive service and support to

(1) complete a one-to-one replacement of its old, now decommissioned STERIS-branded sterile processing equipment (two steam autoclaves, washer, sink, carts, racks, accessories, installation, technical support and supervision, etc.), along with a low-temperature autoclave and a dryer; and (2) provide a critical water system (filters, pump, storage tanks, reverse osmosis, UV deionization, softener, technical labor, on-site technical supervision of installation) to support the STERIS sterilization system. This SOW is for the sterile processing equipment.

II. Background: In early October of 2024, CCHCF was found to have (1) mold in the drywall of the clean/dirty room partition, which has been remediated; and (2) legionella and sub-threshold chlorine levels in the hospital water supply, which have been cleared. As a result, the hospital’s sterile processing capabilities have been down for over 232 days. These capabilities are mission-critical and must be re-established. As a contingency, CCHCF is transporting and sterilizing its instruments using the instruments, vehicles, and personnel at Gallup Indian Medical Center, about 100 miles away. This is unsustainable, and if in-house sterile processing capabilities are not re-established, CCHCF is headed toward a shutdown of all functions that depend on regenerated reusable sterile instruments, which is sterilized in a timely manner and which is in compliance with federal regulations and clinical standards of care. Without procuring this equipment, CCHCF will be force to not only close services in general surgery and obstetrics and gynecology, but also other critical functions such as dentistry, the emergency department, podiatry, hand surgery, and even bedside and clinic procedures across the hospital.
