Section G - Contract Administration Data

1. Pursuant to Executive Order (EO) 14275, Restoring Common Sense to Federal Procurement; EO 14265, Modernizing Defense Acquisitions and Spurring Innovation in the Defense Industrial Base and Office of Management and Budget Memorandum M-25-26, Overhauling the Federal Acquisition Regulation (May 2, 2025), Class Deviation 2026-O0038 was issued by the Department of War effective February 1, 2026 announcing the U.S.

Government is operating under the Revolutionary RFO Overhaul (RFO), which specifically mandates the use of the RFO for RFO Part 52 and its applicable clauses. All legacy contracts will follow the legacy RFO through completion, unless specifically modified. All future procurements will align with the streamlined RFO. It is incumbent upon any potential offerors to verify the current status of RFO clauses and meet the revised criteria under the deviation.

In accordance with 2. CYBERSECURITY MATURITY MODEL CERTIFICATION (CMMC):

DRFARS 240.370-5 the following provisions and clauses are required in all solicitations except for solicitations/contracts solely for the acquisition of commercially available off-the-shelf (COTS) items:

Provision - 252.204-7008, Compliance with Safeguarding Covered Defense Information Control.

Clause - 252.204-7009, Limitations on the Use or Disclosure of Third- Party Contractor Reported Cyber Incident Information.

Clause - 252.204-7012, Safeguarding Covered Defense Information and Cyber Incident Reporting Clause - 252.240-7997, NIST SP 800-171 DoD Assessment Requirements.

In the case of solicitation no. W912EE26QA034, implementation of a NIST SP 800-171 assessment is not a requirement since there is no covered defense information provided by the Government in the release of the solicitation, and the solicitation contains no controlled technical information. All information related to this project has been posted for full public view at www.sam.

If an individual other than the Contracting Officer attempts to make changes to the terms and conditions of this contract you shall not proceed with the change and shall immediately notify the Contracting Officer. Proceeding with any work not authorized by the contracting officer will be at the Contractor's own risk."

4.

UFC Form 23, previously required for direct deposits/EFT payments by the Vicksburg District (MVK) is obsolete.

This procurement is Total Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS Code 336612 - Boat Building, Size standard: 1,000 Employees. The awardee of this contract shall comply with all requirements up to and including the following:

Services (except construction): Contractor will not pay more than 50 percent of the amount paid by the Government for contract performance to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities.

Any work that a similarly situated entity further subcontracts will count towards the prime contractor's 50 percent subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded. When a contract includes both services and supplies, the 50 percent limitation shall apply only to the service portion of the contract.

Supplies (other than procurement from a nonmanufacturer of such supplies): Contractor will not pay more than 50 percent of the amount paid by the Government for contract performance, excluding the cost of materials, to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities. Any work that a similarly situated entity further subcontracts will count towards the prime contractor's 50 percent subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded. When a contract includes both supplies and services, the 50 percent limitation shall apply only to the supply portion of the contract.

General construction: Contractor will not pay more than 85 percent of the amount paid by the Government for contract performance, excluding the cost of materials, to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities. Any work that a similarly situated entity further subcontracts will count towards the prime contractor's 85 percent subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded.

Construction by special trade contractors: Contractor will not pay more than 75 percent of the amount paid by the Government for contract performance, excluding the cost of materials, to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities. Any work that a similarly situated entity further subcontracts will count towards the prime contractor's 75 percent subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded.

A similarly situated entity is a first-tier subcontractor (including independent contractors) that meets two specific criteria:

1) Same Program Status: It has the same small business program status that qualified you, the prime contractor, for the award.

2) Small Size: It is considered a small business under the size standard for the NAICS code you assigned to that specific subcontract

Upon the Contracting Officer's request, the Contractor shall submit a report to the Contracting Officer documenting compliance with RFO 52.2l9-l4. If the Contractor is using Similarly Situated Entities, it must be clearly identifiable in the submitted reports. If the required percentage is not being met the Contractor shall also include, with the semiannual report, a plan to meet the required percentage before the contract end date.

Instructions for Calculation of the Cost of Contract Performance Incurred for Personnel in Accordance with 'Limitations on Subcontracting' (RFO 52.219-14):

Clearly describe the Work to be Performed by Prime Personnel and/or Similarly Situated Entities:

Show Calculation of the Cost of Contract Performance Incurred for Personnel:

1. Total cost of contract = $

2. Total cost of performance by Prime and it's similarly saturated entities = $

3. Percentage of Contract Performance Incurred by Prime Personnel and/or Similarly Situated Entities = (Line 1 / Line 2) X 100 = %

7. SPECIAL CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS (IF APPLICABLE): 1) RFO provision 52.229-11 and RFO clause 52.229-12

RFO provision 52.229-11 and RFO clause 52.229-12 are included in this solicitation. This provision and clause concern the imposition of a 2 percent Federal excise tax withholding on any resultant contract award or payment request. This rule applies to Federal Government contracts for goods or services that are awarded to foreign persons - such as foreign contractors. It implements the Department of the Treasury's final regulations published in the Federal Register at 81 FR 55133 on August 18, 2016, under section 5000C of the Internal Revenue Code relating to the 2 percent tax on payments made by the U.S. Government to foreign persons pursuant to certain contracts.

Pursuant to the RFO 52.229-3 Federal, State, and Local Taxes, taxes imposed under 26 U.S.C.

5000 C may not be included in the contract price or reimbursed.

Exemptions from this excise tax must be claimed by an Offeror when it submits, with its offer, a U.

S. Department of Treasury Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Form W-14, Certificate of Foreign Contracting Party Receiving Federal Procurement Payments, available via the internet at www.irs.

gov/W14. If not submitted with the offer, exemptions will not be applied to any resulting contract and the Government will withhold a full 2 percent on each contract payment. Failure to submit an IRS Form W-14 with each payment request will also result in an automatic withholding of 2 percent from the payment request.

When filling out the IRS Form W-14 the following information may be used to complete Part I, Lines 6 and 7.

Line 6 Contract/reference number: [enter solicitation number] Line 7 "Name and address of the acquiring agency": USACE Vicksburg District (MVK) Contracting Office, 4155 Clay Street, Vicksburg, MS 39183

Any exemption claimed and self-certified is subject to audit by the IRS. Any disputes concerning this tax are adjudicated by the IRS because the Section 5000C tax is a tax matter not a contract issue.

Offerors are encouraged to seek guidance from their own tax professionals for advice concerning the provision, clause, and exclusions exclusion/submission of IRS Form W-14. Additional information is also available at:

Notwithstanding the above, the USACE does not have a means of withholding this excise tax at this time. As a result, contractors are expected to comply with the instructions above and to properly complete and return the W-14 at proposal submission, and with each pay application.

Whether the contractor sets the money aside for future payment to the IRS, or makes payment to the IRS, is the contractor's discretion, based on its analysis of the regulations regarding the excise tax. In the event that USACE is able to withhold during contract performance, it will notify the contractor and make such a withholding (including any catch up withholdings); no advance notice is required to the contractor prior to the withholding. Under no circumstances is USACE liable for any tax not paid by the contractor. The contractor is liable for the tax, to the extent required by law, regardless of whether USACE makes a withholding.

RFO 29.204 expressly states that "[a]gencies merely withhold the tax (section 5000C tax) for the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). All substantive issues regarding the underlying section 5000C tax, e.g., the imposition of, and exemption from the tax, are matters under the jurisdiction of the IRS."

Therefore, we cannot help you determine how the tax law applies to you. We strongly recommend that you contact the IRS and/or a tax professional should you have any questions of this nature. To be clear, this information does not constitute tax advice or a representation of your tax liability.

Furnishing this information does not create liability for the USACE for any Federal, state, or local taxes applicable to the above-referenced contract or any other contract.

For submission requirements and basis of evaluation: Executed RFO Provision 52.229-11.

Completed IRS Form W-14, Certificate of Foreign Contracting Party Receiving Federal Procurement Payments, if applicable. If not submitted with the offer, exemptions will not be applied to any resulting contract and the Government will withhold a full 2 percent on each payment.

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause-

Long-term contract means a contract of more than five years in duration, including options.
