CLAUSES INCORPORATED BY FULL TEXT

52.209-2 PROHIBITION ON CONTRACTING WITH INVERTED DOMESTIC CORPORATIONS--

REPRESENTATION (NOV 2015)

(a) Definitions. Inverted domestic corporation and subsidiary have the meaning given in the clause of this contract entitled Prohibition on Contracting with Inverted Domestic Corporations (52.209-10).

(b) Government agencies are not permitted to use appropriated (or otherwise made available) funds for contracts with either an inverted domestic corporation, or a subsidiary of an inverted domestic corporation, unless the exception at 9.108-2(b) applies or the requirement is waived in accordance with the procedures at 9.108-4.

(c) Representation. The Offeror represents that--

(1) It [ ___ ] is, [ ___ ] is not an inverted domestic corporation; and

(2) It [ ___ ] is, [ ___ ] is not a subsidiary of an inverted domestic corporation.

(End of provision)

52.209-5 CERTIFICATION REGARDING RESPONSIBILITY MATTERS (OCT 2015)

(a)(1) The Offeror certifies, to the best of its knowledge and belief, that-

(i) The Offeror and/or any of its Principals-

(A) Are ( ) are not ( ) presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, or declared ineligible for the award of contracts by any Federal agency;

(B) Have ( ) have not ( ), within a three-year period preceding this offer, been convicted of or had a civil judgment rendered against them for: commission of fraud or a criminal offense in connection with obtaining, attempting to obtain, or performing a public (Federal, State, or local) contract or subcontract; violation of Federal or

State antitrust statutes relating to the submission of offers; or commission of embezzlement, theft, forgery, bribery, falsification or destruction of records, making false statements, tax evasion, violating Federal criminal tax laws, or receiving stolen property (if offeror checks “have”, the offeror shall also see 52.209-7, if included in this solicitation); and

(C) Are ( ) are not ( ) presently indicted for, or otherwise criminally or civilly charged by a governmental entity with, commission of any of the offenses enumerated in paragraph (a)(1)(i)(B) of this provision.;

and

(D) Have , have not , within a three-year period preceding this offer, been notified of any delinquent

Federal taxes in an amount that exceeds $3,500 for which the liability remains unsatisfied.

(1) Federal taxes are considered delinquent if both of the following criteria apply:

(i) The tax liability is finally determined. The liability is finally determined if it has been assessed. A liability is not finally determined if there is a pending administrative or judicial challenge. In the case of a judicial challenge to the liability, the liability is not finally determined until all judicial appeal rights have been exhausted.

(ii) The taxpayer is delinquent in making payment. A taxpayer is delinquent if the taxpayer has failed to pay the tax liability when full payment was due and required. A taxpayer is not delinquent in cases where enforced collection action is precluded.

(2) Examples. (i) The taxpayer has received a statutory notice of deficiency, under I.R.C. Sec. 6212, which entitles the taxpayer to seek Tax Court review of a proposed tax deficiency. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek Tax Court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights.

(ii) The IRS has filed a notice of Federal tax lien with respect to an assessed tax liability, and the taxpayer has been issued a notice under I.R.C. Sec. 6320 entitling the taxpayer to request a hearing with the IRS Office of Appeals contesting the lien filing, and to further appeal to the Tax Court if the IRS determines to sustain the lien filing. In the course of the hearing, the taxpayer is entitled to contest the underlying tax liability because the taxpayer has had no prior opportunity to contest the liability. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek tax court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights.

(iii) The taxpayer has entered into an installment agreement pursuant to I.R.C. Sec. 6159. The taxpayer is making timely payments and is in full compliance with the agreement terms. The taxpayer is not delinquent because the taxpayer is not currently required to make full payment.

(iv) The taxpayer has filed for bankruptcy protection. The taxpayer is not delinquent because enforced collection action is stayed under 11 U.S.C. 362 (the Bankruptcy Code).

(ii) The Offeror has ( ) has not ( ), within a three-year period preceding this offer, had one or more contracts terminated for default by any Federal agency.

(2) Principal, for the purposes of this certification, means an officer, director, owner, partner, or a person having primary management or supervisory responsibilities within a business entity (e.g., general manager; plant manager;

head of a division or business segment; and similar positions).

(b) The Offeror shall provide immediate written notice to the Contracting Officer if, at any time prior to contract award, the Offeror learns that its certification was erroneous when submitted or has become erroneous by reason of changed circumstances.

(c) A certification that any of the items in paragraph (a) of this provision exists will not necessarily result in withholding of an award under this solicitation. However, the certification will be considered in connection with a determination of the Offeror's responsibility. Failure of the Offeror to furnish a certification or provide such additional information as requested by the Contracting Officer may render the Offeror nonresponsible.

(d) Nothing contained in the foregoing shall be construed to require establishment of a system of records in order to render, in good faith, the certification required by paragraph (a) of this provision. The knowledge and information of an Offeror is not required to exceed that which is normally possessed by a prudent person in the ordinary course of business dealings.

(e) The certification in paragraph (a) 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 rendered an erroneous certification, in addition to other remedies available to the Government, the Contracting Officer may terminate the contract resulting from this solicitation for default.

52.209-7 INFORMATION REGARDING RESPONSIBILITY MATTERS (JULY 2013)

(a) Definitions. As used in this provision--

Administrative proceeding means a non-judicial process that is adjudicatory in nature in order to make a determination of fault or liability (e.g., Securities and Exchange Commission Administrative Proceedings, Civilian

Board of Contract Appeals Proceedings, and Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals Proceedings). This includes administrative proceedings at the Federal and State level but only in connection with performance of a

Federal contract or grant. It does not include agency actions such as contract audits, site visits, corrective plans, or inspection of deliverables.

Federal contracts and grants with total value greater than $10,000,000 means--

(1) The total value of all current, active contracts and grants, including all priced options; and

(2) The total value of all current, active orders including all priced options under indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity, 8(a), or requirements contracts (including task and delivery and multiple-award Schedules).

Principal means an officer, director, owner, partner, or a person having primary management or supervisory responsibilities within a business entity (e.g., general manager; plant manager; head of a division or business segment; and similar positions).

(b) The offeror ( ) has ( ) does not have current active Federal contracts and grants with total value greater than

$10,000,000.

(c) If the offeror checked “has” in paragraph (b) of this provision, the offeror represents, by submission of this offer, that the information it has entered in the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS) is current, accurate, and complete as of the date of submission of this offer with regard to the following information:

(1) Whether the offeror, and/or any of its principals, has or has not, within the last five years, in connection with the award to or performance by the offeror of a Federal contract or grant, been the subject of a proceeding, at the

Federal or State level that resulted in any of the following dispositions:

(i) In a criminal proceeding, a conviction.

(ii) In a civil proceeding, a finding of fault and liability that results in the payment of a monetary fine, penalty, reimbursement, restitution, or damages of $5,000 or more.

(iii) In an administrative proceeding, a finding of fault and liability that results in--

(A) The payment of a monetary fine or penalty of $5,000 or more; or

(B) The payment of a reimbursement, restitution, or damages in excess of $100,000.

(iv) In a criminal, civil, or administrative proceeding, a disposition of the matter by consent or compromise with an acknowledgment of fault by the Contractor if the proceeding could have led to any of the outcomes specified in paragraphs (c)(1)(i), (c)(1)(ii), or (c)(1)(iii) of this provision.

(2) If the offeror has been involved in the last five years in any of the occurrences listed in (c)(1) of this provision, whether the offeror has provided the requested information with regard to each occurrence.

(d) The offeror shall post the information in paragraphs (c)(1)(i) through (c)(1)(iv) of this provision in FAPIIS as required through maintaining an active registration in the System for Award Management database via https://www.acquisition.gov (see 52.204-7).

52.209-9 UPDATES OF PUBLICLY AVAILABLE INFORMATION REGARDING RESPONSIBILITY

MATTERS (JULY 2013)

(a) The Contractor shall update the information in the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information

System (FAPIIS) on a semi-annual basis, throughout the life of the contract, by posting the required information in the System for Award Management database via https://www.acquisition.gov.

(b) As required by section 3010 of the Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2010 (Pub. L. 111-212), all information posted in FAPIIS on or after April 15, 2011, except past performance reviews, will be publicly available. FAPIIS consists of two segments--

(1) The non-public segment, into which Government officials and the Contractor post information, which can only be viewed by--https://www.acquisition.gov/

(i) Government personnel and authorized users performing business on behalf of the Government; or

(ii) The Contractor, when viewing data on itself; and

(2) The publicly-available segment, to which all data in the non-public segment of FAPIIS is automatically transferred after a waiting period of 14 calendar days, except for--

(i) Past performance reviews required by subpart 42.15;

(ii) Information that was entered prior to April 15, 2011; or

(iii) Information that is withdrawn during the 14-calendar-day waiting period by the Government official who posted it in accordance with paragraph (c)(1) of this clause.

(c) The Contractor will receive notification when the Government posts new information to the Contractor's record.

(1) If the Contractor asserts in writing within 7 calendar days, to the Government official who posted the information, that some of the information posted to the non-public segment of FAPIIS is covered by a disclosure exemption under the Freedom of Information Act, the Government official who posted the information must within

7 calendar days remove the posting from FAPIIS and resolve the issue in accordance with agency Freedom of

Information procedures, prior to reposting the releasable information. The contractor must cite 52.209-9 and request removal within 7 calendar days of the posting to FAPIIS.

(2) The Contractor will also have an opportunity to post comments regarding information that has been posted by the Government. The comments will be retained as long as the associated information is retained, i.e., for a total period of 6 years. Contractor comments will remain a part of the record unless the Contractor revises them.

(3) As required by section 3010 of Pub. L. 111-212, all information posted in FAPIIS on or after April 15, 2011, except past performance reviews, will be publicly available.

(d) Public requests for system information posted prior to April 15, 2011, will be handled under Freedom of

Information Act procedures, including, where appropriate, procedures promulgated under E.O. 12600.

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation is determined to be the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) offer utilizing

FAR Parts 12 and 13. The Government may award without discussions; however, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if deemed in the Government’s best interest. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

The LPTA Evaluation Factors are:

PART I – Price Proposal

PART II – Technical Proposal

PART III – Past Performance

I. Factor 1 – Price Proposal.

All offeror’s proposed price will be determined by multiplying the quantities by the proposed unit price for each

Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) to confirm the extended amount and the total amount. Failure to include a price for each CLIN may exclude the offeror from further consideration for award.

The total evaluated price will include all option periods including the six month extension. The price evaluation will document the reasonableness and completeness of the total evaluated price.

Arithmetic Discrepancies. For the purpose of initial evaluation of offers, the following will be utilized in resolving arithmetic discrepancies as submitted by the offeror.

(A) Obviously misplaced decimal points will be corrected;

(B) Discrepancy between unit price and extended price, the unit price will govern;

(C) Apparent errors in extension of unit prices will be corrected;

(D) Apparent errors in extended prices per CLIN will be corrected.

II. Factor 2 – Technical Proposal.

The Government technical evaluation team shall evaluate the technical proposals on an acceptable/unacceptable basis. Ratings will be assigned as follows:

Acceptable Proposal clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Proposal does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation

Only those proposals determined technically acceptable will be considered for further evaluation. The proposal shall be evaluated against the following factors:

Subfactor 1 – Equipment Plan

Description: This subfactor evaluates how well the contractor identifies all necessary equipment needed to ensure successful contract performance.

Measure of Merit: This requirement is met when the offeror’s proposal clearly identifies all necessary equipment to fulfill the requirements IAW PWS paragraph 1.2, 1.8 and certification procedures IAW PWS paragraph 1.9.

Subfactor 2 – Workforce Management

Description: This subfactor evaluates how well the contractor identifies the manpower needed to ensure successful contract performance.

Measure of Merit: This requirement is met when the offeror’s proposal clearly indicates the number of personnel projected for employment during the performance of this contract and how well the contractor addresses contingencies and/or strategies for adding, removing, or replacing personnel.

Subfactor 2 – Quality Control

Description: This subfactor evaluates how well the contractor develops a feasible quality control plan to ensure successful contract performance.

Measure of Merit: This requirement is met when the offeror’s proposal clearly indicates a well-developed and feasible quality control plan.

III. Factor 3 – Past Performance.

Past Performance will be evaluated based on subjective assessment of how well the offeror performed on past recent and relevant work, as outlined in Addendum to FAR Provision 52.212-1. Offeror must receive an Acceptable rating to receive an award. This rating is based upon offeror-provided information, or information obtained from any other sources of past performance information, indicating performance of same or similar to school bus services as follows:

Acceptable Based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectations that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror’s performance record is unknown (See note below.)

Unacceptable Based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government has no reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

Note: In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance (see FAR 15.305 (a)(2)(iv)). Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “Unknown” shall be considered “Acceptable.”

The Past Performance information may be obtained from the following sources:

(A) Reference List (See details in the Addendum to FAR 52.212-1, Volume III).

(B) Past and Present Performance Questionnaire

(C) Past Performance Information available from other sources such as Past Performance Information

Retrieval System (PPIRS), Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) and/or other past performance information sources to obtain additional information that may be used in the evaluation of an offeror’s past performance.

Award Process. The Government intends to award to the lowest priced, technically acceptable offeror with an acceptable past performance rating. In accordance with 13.106-2(b)(3), the Government is not required to establish a competitive range, conduct discussions, or score offers. Consistent with simplified acquisition procedures, the evaluation process is as follows:

(i) Price: The Government will evaluate all proposals for price, ranking offerors from lowest to highest total evaluated price.

(ii) Technical: The lowest priced proposal will then be evaluated for Technical Acceptability. Proposals must be rated technically “Acceptable” in order to be considered for award.

If the lowest priced offeror’s technical proposal is “Unacceptable”, the next low offeror’s technical proposal will be evaluated, continuing until an offeror with an “Acceptable” technical rating is identified.

(iii) Past Performance: The lowest priced, technically “Acceptable” offeror’s past performance will be evaluated.

The Government reserves the right that:

If the lowest priced, technically “Acceptable” offeror’s past performance is determined to be “Acceptable”, the evaluation process may stop and the award may be made to that offeror, pending an affirmative price fair and reasonable determination. However, if it is determined to be in the best interest of the government, the government will continue with the evaluation and reserves the right to enter into discussions any time during the evaluation process.
