C. Mechanical Specification Introduction
This is a Performance Based Service Contract and the success of the Contract depends on the satisfaction of the requirements, but also the satisfaction of our shared customer. Rather than a mere list of activities, this is a written expression of the GSA’s expectation of the service to be performed by the Contractor. A higher level of effective communication between the Government and Contractor is essential for partnering and for the performance based service contract to succeed. The purpose of partnering is to adopt procedures wherein the scope of work where the Contractor and Government can work together in achieving Contract objectives. Partnering involves the development of a cooperative management team that seeks to identify common goals and objectives. The success of this Contract is shared between the Government and the Contractor.
More emphasis is placed on the Contractor’s self-management of quality, not the usual external inspection by Government Inspectors, although that is a part of this Contract as well. All parties should act proactively to reduce service cost, therein providing an incentive for the Contractor.
The Contractor, through innovation, technology, or other means, shall perform the required maintenance of these facilities by following the Guiding Principles for Sustainable Existing Buildings:
I. Employ Integrated Assessment, Operation and Management Principles
a. Ensure incorporation of GSA’s performance goals for energy, water, material use and recycling, and indoor environmental quality goals throughout the life of this Contract.
b. Ensure that operating decisions are carried out with regard to sustainable operations.
c. Meet ASHRAE standards as noted throughout the SOW for thermal comfort and indoor air quality.
d. Use low emitting materials Volatile organic compounds (VOC) or other for maintenance. In particular, use products that have low pollutant emissions, adhesives, sealants, and solvents.
e. Use products meeting or exceeding EPA’s recycled content recommendations for building maintenance. For other products such as ceiling tiles, use materials with recycled content. For more information, see EPA’s Comprehensive Procurement Guideline website.
f. Use materials with the highest content level per USDA’s bio-based content recommendations for maintenance of or use in the building.
g. Use environmentally sustainable products that have a lesser or reduced effect on human health and the environment. See the Green Products Compilation.
h. Provide salvage, reuse and recycling services for waste generated from building operations, maintenance, and repair and discarded equipment.
i. Eliminate the use of ozone depleting compounds where alternative environmentally sustainable products are available consistent with the Clean Air Act.
II. Optimize Energy Performance – Operate all equipment to optimize efficiency to reduce energy use and otherwise seek operating costs reductions wherever possible.
III. Protect and Conserve Water where possible inside and outside. Where available, use EPA’s Water Sense-labeled products or other water conserving products.
IV. Be aware that the building(s) and management involved with this Contract may be in the process of establishing new initiatives, instituting plans, and operational procedures to meet energy efficiency goals either through receiving an ENERGY STAR rating, Upgrade or conversion of BAS to BACNET, Shave Energy, Smart Building, GSA link technology, or comparable programs. The Contractor will play an integral part of obtaining these goals and should be aware of the programs and processes.
This is a fixed-price Contract and while working with the Government in obtaining goals the Contractor is motivated to find improved methods of performance in order to increase its profits. Results of an effective partnership should reflect a “mutual win” situation.

C.4.1 Existing Deficiency Inspection and Closeout Inspection The outgoing Contractor, incoming Contractor, and the CO or their designee shall make a complete and systematic initial inspection together during the transition phase of the contract (See Section C.5.1 Transition Phase Startup). The purpose of this inspection shall be to discover and list in an existing deficiency/contract closeout list all deficiencies that may exist in the equipment and systems covered by this performance work statement, as well as the incoming Contractor's itemized price (including, but not limited to labor, materials, overhead, and profit) for correcting each deficiency. The Government may elect to have all or any part of this work performed by the outgoing contractor (at no additional cost) prior to contract expiration or the incoming Contractor (at the price or prices quoted), by Government employees, or by other Contractors.
C.4.2 Existing Deficiency List and Contract Closeout List:
Contract Closeout deficiency items that can be corrected by service call, preventive or predictive maintenance or repairs below the repair threshold will be corrected by the outgoing contractor prior to expiration of the contract. Any contract closeout deficient items not completed prior to contract expiration will result in the withholding of monies from the final payment. The existing deficiency list and contract closeout list shall be submitted to the CO or their designee not later than 7 calendar days after completion of the inspection. [DELIVERABLE] Any dispute between the Government and the Contractor as to classification of initial deficiency list items will be resolved under the Disputes Clause in this document. The incoming Contractor’s itemized estimates for correcting each deficiency shall be submitted to the CO or their designee not later than 30 days after submission of the list and these estimates shall remain in effect for a minimum of 180 days. [DELIVERABLE] Deficiencies discovered after the submission of the existing deficiency/contract closeout list will not be considered pre-existing for purposes of this Contract, unless equipment is operational and cannot be secured and inspected. Any piece of equipment or system that cannot be inspected shall be highlighted at the beginning of the existing deficiency list stating why it cannot be secured and inspected. An estimate of when the Contractor reasonably expects to be able to inspect the piece of equipment shall be provided. When an existing deficiency is corrected, the Contractor shall assume full responsibility for the subsequent repair of the item as covered under the terms of this Contract. Nothing in the existing deficiency list shall be construed as diminishing the obligations imposed by this Contract upon the Contractor to operate any deficient item
