When requested, the ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality as to the source of the concern. The existence of the ombudsman is not to diminish the authority of the contracting officer, the Source Evaluation Board, or the selection official. Further, the ombudsman does not participate in the evaluation of proposals, the source selection process, or the adjudication of formal contract disputes. Therefore, before consulting with an ombudsman, interested parties must first address their concerns, issues, disagreements, and/or recommendations to the contracting officer for resolution.

(b) If resolution cannot be made by the contracting officer, interested parties may contact the Contracting Activity ombudsman, Western Procurement Manager, P.O. Box 281213, Lakewood, CO 80228-8213, (720) 962-7155. Concerns, issues, disagreements, and recommendations which cannot be resolved at the installation may be referred to the DOE ombudsman. Do not contact the ombudsman to request copies of the solicitation, verify offer due date, or clarify technical requirements. Such inquiries shall be directed to the contracting officer or as specified elsewhere in this document. If this is a task or delivery order contract, the ombudsman shall review complaints from contractors and ensure they are afforded a 'fair opportunity to be considered', consistent with Section 303J(b) of the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949, as amended and the procedures of the contract.

DOE-H-1010 Section 8(a) Direct Awards

This contract is issued as a direct award between the contracting activity and the 8(a) contractor pursuant to a Partnership Agreement between the Small Business Administration (SBA) and the Department of Energy (DOE). Although SBA is not identified in Section A (Standard Form 26), SBA remains the prime contractor for this contract. SBA retains responsibility for 8(a) certification, 8(a) eligibility determinations and related issues, and providing counseling and assistance to the 8(a) contractor under the 8(a) program. The cognizant SBA district office for the 8(a) contractor is:

U.S. Small Business Administration Colorado or Wyoming District Office

DOE is responsible for administering the contract and taking any action on behalf of the Government under the terms and conditions of the contract. However, DOE shall give advance notice to the SBA before it issues a final notice terminating performance, either in whole or in part, under the contract. DOE shall also coordinate with SBA prior to processing any novation agreement. DOE may assign contract administration functions to a contract administration office.

The contractor agrees:

(1) To notify the Contracting Officer, simultaneously with its notification to SBA (as required by SBA's 8(a) regulations), when the owner or owners upon whom 8(a) eligibility is based plan to relinquish ownership or control of the concern. Consistent with 15 U.S.C. 637(a)(21), transfer of ownership or control shall result in termination of the contract for convenience, unless SBA waives the requirement for termination prior to the actual relinquishing of ownership or control.

(2) To comply with FAR 52.219-14, "Limitations on Subcontracting."

DOE-H-1011 Department of Labor Wage Determinations

DOE-H-1013 Ordering Under A Multiple Award Contract

The Government has awarded more than one contract for the work specified in the Statement of Work of this contract. Periodically, the Contracting Officer may issue task orders to one or more of these contractors, including the Contractor, pursuant to either paragraph (a) or (b) below.

(a) The Contracting Officer may issue a task to any one of the contractors if he or she determines, in his or her sole discretion that:

(1) The task is valued at $2,500 or less;

(2) Following any of the procedures of paragraph (b) would result in unacceptable delays in fulfilling the requirement which is the subject of the task order;

(3) The task requires services that are unique or highly specialized and that only one contractor can provide the services at the level of quality required;

(4) The task is a logical follow-on to a task order previously issued to a contractor pursuant to paragraph (b) below; or

(5) It is necessary to issue the task order to a contractor to fulfill a minimum guarantee.

(b) The Contractor agrees that issuance of a task order in accordance with any of these procedures is deemed to have provided the Contractor a "fair opportunity to be considered" as that phrase is used in Section 303J(b) of the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949, as amended.

(1) Issuance of Task Orders Based Entirely or Substantially on Cost.

(i) When the issuance of a task order is to be based entirely on cost, the Contracting Officer will provide each contractor information as delineated in the clause entitled, "Task Orders," of this contract relating to the prospective task, specifying that the award will be based entirely on cost. The Contractor will provide a task proposal as specified in the "Task Orders" clause. The Government will perform an analysis of the cost proposal to assure that the rates conform to the contract schedule. The Contracting Officer will determine whether elements of cost reasonably reflect the nature of the prospective task.

(ii) The Contracting Officer may choose to base award substantially on cost. In which case the Contracting Officer will issue a request for task proposals which specifies any additional selection factors and their relative importance, to be used in the selection of the recipient of the task.

(2) Issuance of Task Orders Based Entirely or Substantially on Performance of Previous Task Orders.

(i) In issuing tasks based entirely on performance of previous tasks, the Contracting Officer, along with the Contracting Officer's Representative, will evaluate records of the contractors technical performance and cost control [under cost reimbursement types of contracts] on previous tasks issued under all contracts for the work specified in the Statement of Work of this contract, taking into account performance under tasks most comparable to the prospective task. In order to issue tasks on this basis where all contractors have not performed tasks under this and the companion contracts, the Contracting Officer may consider the quality of the contractors' technical proposals under the solicitation leading to the award of this contract taking into account the portion of the proposal most comparable to the prospective task. After such an evaluation, the Contracting Officer will make award to the contractor he or she believes most likely to perform the task at the highest quality at the best value. If issuance of a task will be based entirely on performance of previous tasks, task proposals will not be requested.

(ii) The Contracting Officer may choose to base issuance of a task substantially on performance of previous tasks. In that case, the Contracting Officer will issue a request for task proposals which specifies any additional selection factors, and their relative importance, to be used in selecting the recipient of the task.

(3) Issuance of Task Orders Based upon Other Criteria. In issuing tasks under this procedure, the Contracting Officer may base the issuance on any other factors which he or she deems appropriate in the exercise of sound business judgment. Such factors include, but are not limited to, selection based upon highest technical rating of proposals for performance of a prospective task, or determination by the Contracting Officer that there is need for greater balance in workload among this and the other contracts which were awarded for the work described in this contract. If the selection factor or factors involve the receipt of task proposals from the contractors, the factor or factors to be used in selecting the recipient of the task, and their relative importance, will be specified in the request for a task proposal by the Contracting Officer.

(c) Except as specified in this clause, a task order may be issued without a request for task proposals from the contractors.

(d) An ombudsman has been designated at the contracting activity awarding this contract to ensure that all contractors are afforded a 'fair opportunity' to be considered for task or delivery orders pursuant to FAR 16.5 The purpose of the ombudsman is not to diminish the authority of the Contracting Officer, but to receive on behalf of and to communicate to the appropriate Government personnel concerns and disagreements of contractors not receiving a specific task and to work to resolve the matter. When requested, the ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality as to the source of the concern. The ombudsman does not participate in the original selection of contractors or in the evaluation or determination of the issuance of task or delivery orders under this contract, does not act in the capacity of a Contracting Officer, and does not participate in the adjudication of contract disputes in regard to multiple award task or delivery order contracts awarded pursuant to FAR 16.5.
