NMGRT EXEMPTION

Special Note For Construction Projects Only: Pursuant to HB-839 (200), amending New Mexico Statutes, Chapter 172, Section 8, a new Gross Receipts tax deduction is offered for receipts from providing military construction services at a New Mexico military installation located in Curry County to implement special operations mission transition projects pursuant to contracts entered into with the U.S. Department of Defense. This deduction is available only for report periods beginning July 1, 2007, and ending December 31, 2010. All work under this contract within these time periods is presumed to qualify for this deduction, unless the contractor can demonstrate that the State of New Mexico refuses to allow the deduction for this contract or task orders issued under this contract. Therefore, NMGRT costs should NOT be included in either contractor or subcontractor proposals during these time periods. Should the Contracting Officer in advance determine, or the State of New Mexico subsequently certify, that this deduction will not apply to a project, the contract or task order will be amended to cover the costs of the NMGRT for the non-deductible project.

The construction identified in this delivery order is considered part of the AFSOC mission change at Cannon AFB, NM and will not consider New Mexico Gross Receipts Tax.

Section H - Special Contract Requirements

SPECIAL CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS

TASK ORDER ISSUANCE PROCEDURES

Work under this contract will be ordered by written task orders issued on DD Form 1155 (Order for Supplies or Services) to the contractor by the Contracting Officer.

1. COMPETITION

Only contractors awarded contract as a result of this RFP will compete for subsequent task orders. Contractors are encouraged to participate in all site visis and submit proposals. To execute fiscal year end projects, the government may solicit offers for projects for which funds are not certified or readily available. Submission of proposals for these acquisitions is discretionary and will have no negative impact on the contractor.

Occassionally, (generally during the last quarter of the firscal year), the government will solicit offers for projects for which funds are not certified nor readily available. Air Force Special Operations Command refers to this acquisitions as “Special Advance Authority” (SAA) or “Normal Straddle Bid” (NSB) projects. Under SAA, funds are not available and may not become available. The Government makes no promise to award a contract. If funds do not become available for SAA projects, the Request for Quote is cancelled and no award is made. Under NSB, funds may be available in the current fiscal year or the next fiscal year. If a contract is not awarded in the current fiscal year, it will be awarded in the following fiscal year. (See AFFARS MP 5332.7, Contract Funding). Submission of proposals for these acquisitions is at the sole discretion of the respective MACC contractors and their declination to participate in any or all such solicitations will not reflect negatively upon them. This includes projects that are in whole or in part “SAA” projects.

Unless the Contracting Officer applies the exceptions noted below, each task order will be awarded, as a result of competition to the contractor who offers the best value to the Govenrment considering task order evaluation criteria. The contracting officer’s decision as to the selection for award of a task order is not protestable unless the protest is on the grounds that the order increases the scope, period, or maximum value of the contract program.

The contracting officer reserves the right to award a task order without competition based upon a determination that:

a) The agency need for the supplies or services are so urgent that providing a fair opportunity would result in unacceptable delays;

b) Only one awardee is capable of providing the supplies or services required at the level of quality required because the supplies or services being ordered are unique or highly specialized;

c) The order must be issued on a sole-source basis in the interest of economy and efficiency as a logical follow-on to an order already issued under the contract, provided that all awardees were given a fair opportunity to be considered for the original order.

2. SUBSEQUENT TASK ORDER EVALUATION CRITERIA

Subsequent task orders may be awarded on best value, either tradeoff process or low price, technically acceptable. If the Government decides to issue the task order as a best value using the tradeoff process, award factors will vary depending on the unique requirements of each task order. One or more of the following criteria in addition to Price or Cost may be considered:

1. Quality of Deliverables

2. Ability to Meet Schedule Requirements

3. Cost control

4. Potential impact on other orders place with the contractor

5. Current workload

6. Design

7. The contractor’s technical understanding of the work

8. The most efficient and effective plan to accomplish work

9. Rationale for proposed materials, type and quantities

10. Sustainable design features

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT

All waste materials generated by any work under the contract performed on a government installation shall be handled, transported, stored, and disposed of by the contractor and by his subcontractors at any time in accordance with all applicable Federal, state, or local laws, ordinances, regulations, court orders, or other types of rules or rulings having the effect of law, including but not limited to Executive Order 12088, 13 October 1978, the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, as amended (33 USC Sec 1251 ET SEQ); The Clean Air Act, as amended (42 USC SEC 1857 ET SEQ); the Endangered Species Act, as amended (16 USC Sec 1531, ET SEQ); the Toxic Substances Control Act, as amended (15 USC 2601, ET SEQ); the National Historic Preservation Act, as amended (16 USC Sec 470, ET SEQ); the Solid Waste Act, as amended (42 USC 6901 ET SEQ); and the Archaeological and Historic Preservation Act, as amended (16 USC Sec 469, ET SEQ).

HAZARDOUS MATERIALS USAGE REPORTING

Contractor shall identify and report hazardous materials, as defined by FED-STD-313D, used during the performance of this contract. This list shall include the following:

1. Product name of material

2. Manufacturer of material if not specified on MSDS

3. Job for which the material is/was used

4. Amount of material used in weight or volume

As an attachment to the report, Contractor shall provide a MSDS for each material listed.

(d) The small business size standard for a Contractor providing a product which it does not manufacture itself, for a contract other than a construction or service contract, is 500 employees.

(e) Except as provided in paragraph (g) of this clause, the Contractor shall make the rerepresentation required by paragraph (b) of this clause by validating or updating all its representations in the Online Representations and Certifications Application and its data in the Central Contractor Registration, as necessary, to ensure that they reflect the Contractor's current status. The Contractor shall notify the contracting office in writing within the timeframes specified in paragraph (b) of this clause that the data have been validated or updated, and provide the date of the validation or update.

(f) If the Contractor represented that it was other than a small business concern prior to award of this contract, the Contractor may, but is not required to, take the actions required by paragraphs (e) or (g) of this clause.

52.222-23 NOTICE OF REQUIREMENT FOR AFFIRMATIVE ACTION TO ENSURE EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY FOR CONSTRUCTION (FEB 1999)

(a) The offeror's attention is called to the Equal Opportunity clause and the Affirmative Action Compliance Requirements for Construction clause of this solicitation.

(b) The goals for minority and female participation, expressed in percentage terms for the Contractor's aggregate workforce in each trade on all construction work in the covered area, are as follows:

These goals are applicable to all the Contractor's construction work performed in the covered area. If the Contractor performs construction work in a geographical area located outside of the covered area, the Contractor shall apply the goals established for the geographical area where the work is actually performed. Goals are published periodically in the Federal Register in notice form, and these notices may be obtained from any Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs office.

(c) The Contractor's compliance with Executive Order 11246, as amended, and the regulations in 41 CFR 60-4 shall be based on (1) its implementation of the Equal Opportunity clause, (2) specific affirmative action obligations required by the clause entitled "Affirmative Action Compliance Requirements for Construction,'' and (3) its efforts to meet the goals. The hours of minority and female employment and training must be substantially uniform throughout the length of the contract, and in each trade. The Contractor shall make a good faith effort to employ minorities and women evenly on each of its projects.
