(b) Before consulting with an ombudsman, interested parties must first address their concerns, issues, disagreements, and/or recommendations to the contracting officer for resolution. Consulting an ombudsman does not alter or postpone the timelines for any other processes (e.g., agency level bid protests, GAO bid protests, requests for debriefings, employee-employer actions, contests of OMB Circular A-76 competition performance decisions).

(c) If resolution cannot be made by the contracting officer, concerned parties may contact either the Center/MAJCOM or AFISRA ombudsmen, Mr. Gregg S. Oneal, AFICA OL AMC, 507 Symington Drive, Scott AFB, IL 62225-5022, phone number (618) 229-0267, facsimile number (618) 256-6668, email: gregory.oneal@us.af.mil or Mr. Michael R. Wagner, AFICA/KP, 1940 Allbrook Drive, Bldg 1, Wright-Patterson AFB, OH 45433, phone number (937) 257-5529, email: michael.wagner@us.af.mil. Concerns, issues, disagreements, and recommendations that cannot be resolved at the MAJCOM/DRU or ARISRA level, may be brought by the concerned party for further consideration to the Air Force ombudsman, Associate Deputy Assistant Secretary (ADAS) (Contracting), SAF/AQC, 1060 Air Force Pentagon, Washington DC 20330-1060, phone number (703) 588-7004, facsimile number (703) 588-1067.

(d) The ombudsman has no authority to render a decision that binds the agency.

(e) 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.
