52.209-13
52.209-13 Violation of Arms Control Treaties or Agreements-Certification
As prescribed in 9.109-5, insert the following provision:
Violation of Arms Control Treaties or Agreements—Certification (JUN 2018)
(a) This provision does not apply to acquisitions below the simplified acquisition threshold or to acquisitions of commercial items as defined at FAR 2.101.
(b) Certification. [Offeror shall check either (1) or (2).]
________ (1) The Offeror certifies that—
(i) It does not engage and has not engaged in any activity that contributed to or was a significant factor in the President's or Secretary of State's determination that a foreign country is in violation of its obligations undertaken in any arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament agreement to which the United States is a party, or is not adhering to its arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament commitments in which the United States is a participating state. The determinations are described in the most recent unclassified annual report provided to Congress pursuant to section 403 of the Arms Control and Disarmament Act (22 U.S.C. 2593a). The report is available via the internet at https://www.state.gov/t/avc/rls/rpt/; and
(ii) No entity owned or controlled by the Offeror has engaged in any activity that contributed to or was a significant factor in the President's or Secretary of State's determination that a foreign country is in violation of its obligations undertaken in any arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament agreement to which the United States is a party, or is not adhering to its arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament commitments in which the United States is a participating state. The determinations are described in the most recent unclassified annual report provided to Congress pursuant to section 403 of the Arms Control and Disarmament Act (22 U.S.C. 2593a). The report is available via the internet at https://www.state.gov/t/avc/rls/rpt/; or
________ (2) The Offeror is providing separate information with its offer in accordance with paragraph (d)(2) of this provision.
(c) Procedures for reviewing the annual unclassified report (see paragraph (b)(1) of this provision). For clarity, references to the report in this section refer to the entirety of the annual unclassified report, including any separate reports that are incorporated by reference into the annual unclassified report.
(1) Check the table of contents of the annual unclassified report and the country section headings of the reports incorporated by reference to identify the foreign countries listed there. Determine whether the Offeror or any person owned or controlled by the Offeror may have engaged in any activity related to one or more of such foreign countries.
(2) If there may have been such activity, review all findings in the report associated with those foreign countries to determine whether or not each such foreign country was determined to be in violation of its obligations undertaken in an arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament agreement to which the United States is a party, or to be not adhering to its arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament commitments in which the United States is a participating state.
For clarity, in the annual report an explicit certification of non-compliance is equivalent to a determination of violation. However, the following statements in the annual report are not equivalent to a determination of violation:
(i) An inability to certify compliance.
(ii) An inability to conclude compliance.
(iii) A statement about compliance concerns.
(3) If so, determine whether the Offeror or any person owned or controlled by the Offeror has engaged in any activity that contributed to or is a significant factor in the determination in the report that one or more of these foreign countries is in violation of its obligations undertaken in an arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament agreement to which the United States is a party, or is not adhering to its arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament commitments in which the United States is a participating state. Review the narrative for any such findings reflecting a determination of violation or non-adherence related to those foreign countries in the report, including the finding itself, and to the extent necessary, the conduct giving rise to the compliance or adherence concerns, the analysis of compliance or adherence concerns, and efforts to resolve compliance or adherence concerns.
(4) The Offeror may submit any questions with regard to this report by email to NDAA1290Cert@state.gov. To the extent feasible, the Department of State will respond to such email inquiries within 3 business days.
(d) Do not submit an offer unless—
(1) A certification is provided in paragraph (b)(1) of this provision and submitted with the offer;
or
(2) In accordance with paragraph (b)(2) of this provision, the Offeror provides with its offer information that the President of the United States has—
(i) Waived application under U.S.C. 2593e(d) or (e); or
(ii) Determined under 22 U.S.C. 2593e(g)(2) that the entity has ceased all activities for which measures were imposed under 22 U.S.C.2593e(b).
(e) Remedies. The certification in paragraph (b)(1) of this provision is a material representation of fact upon which reliance was placed when making award. If it is later determined that the Offeror knowingly submitted a false certification, in addition to other remedies available to the Government, such as suspension or debarment, the Contracting Officer may terminate any contract resulting from the false certification.

e. Amendment of solicitation prior to proposal closing time. The Government reserves the right to revise or amend the solicitation prior to the proposal closing time. Such revisions or amendments will be communicated by amendments to this RFP. If such amendments require material changes in quantities or prices, the proposal closing date may be postponed by enough days to enable offerors to revise their proposals. In such cases, the amendment will include an announcement of the new proposal closing date and time. Amendments issued prior to the established time and date for receipt of proposals will be posted on the Internet with the solicitation documents without notice.

If an offeror believes the requirements in these instructions contain an error, omission, or are otherwise unsound, the offeror shall immediately notify the Contracting Officer in writing with supporting rationale. Also, the offeror shall immediately give written notification to the Contracting Officer of ambiguities in the solicitation, including the Statement of Work (SOW). The offeror is reminded the Government reserves the right to award this effort based on the initial proposal, as received, without discussion.
i. Reference Documents. Information pertaining to this acquisition is available on the Federal Business Opportunities (FedBizOpps) web page at http://www.FedBizOpps.gov.
j. Evaluation. Offers will be evaluated using the factors under Section M, Evaluation Factors for Award.
Noncompliance with the RFP or exceptions taken to the solicitation terms and conditions may be grounds to eliminate the proposal from consideration for contract award. Offerors are advised their proposals are presumed to represent their best efforts and most complete response to this solicitation. Cursory responses, or responses which merely reiterate the SOW, will be considered unacceptable. Demonstration of capability and qualifications that clearly support the offeror’s claims are essential. The absence of such evidence will adversely influence evaluation of the proposal.
k. Classified Information. The Government does not desire that any classified information be included as part of your proposal. If it is absolutely necessary to provide classified information, it shall be submitted as a classified addendum to the appropriate proposal volume. Addendum pages will be included in the page count and shall conform to all proposal preparation instructions. Classified information shall be submitted in hard copy format only.
l. Cross Referencing. To the greatest extent possible, each volume shall be written on a stand-alone basis so that its contents may be evaluated with a minimum of cross-referencing to other volumes of the proposal.
Information required for proposal evaluation, which is not found in its designated volume, will be assumed to have been omitted from the proposal. Cross-referencing within a proposal volume is permitted where its use would conserve space and/or improve clarity.
m. Indexing. Each volume shall contain a more detailed table of contents to delineate the sections within that volume. Paper copies shall use tab indexing to identify sections.
n. Glossary of Abbreviations and Acronyms. Each volume shall contain a glossary of all abbreviations and acronyms used, with an explanation for each. Glossaries do not count against the page limitations for their respective volumes.
o. Page Size and Format. These instructions shall apply to both electronic and paper copy proposals. Page size shall be 8.5 x 11 inches, not including foldouts. Tracking, kerning, and leading values shall not be changed from the default values of the word processing or page layout software. Use at least one inch margins on the top, bottom and side margins. Pages shall be numbered sequentially by volume. These page format restrictions shall also apply to responses to evaluation notices (ENs) and Final Proposal Revisions (FPRs), if required.
Legible tables, charts, graphs, and figures shall be used wherever practical to depict organizations, systems and layout, implementation schedules, plans, etc. These displays shall be uncomplicated, legible and shall not exceed 11 x 17 inches in size. Foldout pages shall fold entirely within the volume. Foldout pages may only be used for large tables, charts, graphs, diagrams and schematics; not for pages of text.
Double-sided printing is acceptable, but will count as two pages. Each printed side of foldout pages shall count as two pages each. The background color of each page of the proposal submission shall be white or ivory paper only.
These page format restrictions shall also apply to responses to ENs and FPRs.
Text type shall be Times New Roman or Arial. Except for the reproduced sections of the solicitation document, the text size shall be no smaller than 12 point. Text lines will be no less than single spaced. For tables, charts, graphs and figures, the text shall be no smaller than 8 point. These limitations shall apply to both electronic and hard copy proposals.
Page Limitations. All material must be contained within the page limit identified for each volume or appendix. The page limitations specified in L-1 above shall be treated as maximum limits to assist in the evaluation of each proposal. Total page count will be based on the printed proposal submission. Each page shall be counted toward the above page limits except for cover pages, tables of contents, tabs, glossaries, list of key terms, appendices to technical volume, consent letters, and client authorization letters, and company financial statements. If exceeded, the excess pages will not be read or considered in the evaluation of the proposal. Page limitations shall be placed on responses to ENs. The specified page limits for EN responses will be identified in the letters forwarding the ENs to the offerors.
Binding and Labeling. Each paper volume of the proposal should be separately bound in a D-ring loose- leaf binder, which shall permit the volume to lie flat when open. Staples shall not be used. All binders will allow for easy removal and replacement of pages. A cover sheet should be bound in each book, clearly marked as to volume number, title, copy number, solicitation identification and the offeror's name. The same identifying data should be placed on the spine of each binder. Elaborate format and binding are neither necessary nor desirable. Identify appropriate markings as required by FAR 52.215-1(e), “Restriction on Disclosure and Use of Data”, in Section L, and FAR 3.104-4, “Disclosure, Protection, and Marking of Contractor Bid or Proposal Information and Source Selection Information” on both the paper copy and electronic.
p. Electronic Proposal Copies. To enable the Government to successfully view the proposals electronically, the offeror shall submit their proposal in Adobe Portable Document File (PDF) or Microsoft Word format for Volumes I and III; and, Microsoft Excel format for Volume II with all formulas included and the cells unprotected.
The Government will use the electronic copies in the evaluation process. The Government may use the electronic proposal for all purposes; however, there is no requirement for the Government to compare or verify the consistency of the electronic proposal to the paper proposal. In the case of an identified dispute or variation in content, the paper/hardcopy submitted proposal shall be deemed and treated as the official version for all purposes.
File Preparation. The offeror shall generate “bookmarks” within each PDF file for at least each section and subsection of the document. Bookmarks shall be generated based on indexed entities appearing in the document table of contents. The offeror has the option of generating “thumbnails” within the PDF files as well. The minimum requirement for hypertext links is an overall proposal table of contents linked to each volume and a table of contents within each PDF file linked to each section of the file. Additional hypertext links within the proposal are at the offeror’s discretion. The use of thumbnails or additional hypertext links will not influence the evaluation. The PDF file has a built in security function. The offeror shall set all security options in each PDF file to “allowed.” All text, including table and figure identifiers, shall be indexed and 100% searchable text. All text shall be displayed as a font and not displayed as a bitmap in any proposal volume or appendix to facilitate the ability to copy and paste to another document.
Font and Page Setup. Text font and layout shall be as stated for paper copies. Hypertext links shall be the same minimum font size. The preferred method of implementing hyperlinks is to indicate the hyperlink by blue font color and establishing the hyperlink in Acrobat with “invisible rectangle” with “no outline.” However, the offeror may indicate hyperlinks by any color font or with a visible rectangle.
Other Requirements. The offeror shall not embed sound or video files into the proposal files. Minimize the use of scanned images and keep embedded graphics as simple as possible.
