Section H - Special Contract Requirements

H-01 Section H - Off-Ramp/On-Ramp Procedures

1. The Government may award up to five (5) Exterior Paint IDIQ contracts as a result of the initial competition for this IDIQ. A reserve vendor pool of up to ten (10) contractors will be maintained for the purpose of this On- Ramp procedure. Unsuccessful offerors who meet the Government's requirement and are otherwise eligible for contract award will be retained in the On-Ramp contractor pool and may be offered an opportunity, within the ordering period of this contract, to receive an IDIQ award and be authorized to participate in task order competitions. Priority for selection from this pool will be given to those offerors whose proposal represented the greatest value as determined by source selection authority during the initial competition for IDIQ contract award (see Attachment J-01) and determined to be responsible and qualified for a contract with the Government. No other rights, obligations or liabilities are attached to either the reserved pool member or the Government beyond what is stipulated in this paragraph. The Government reserves the right to remove from or add to the existing pool of Exterior Paint IDIQ awardees by utilizing "On-Ramp" and/or "Off-Ramp" procedures specified below:

1.1. Off-Ramp Procedures: The Off-Ramp process under the Exterior Paint IDIQ contract encompasses several methods by which the Government may exercise its right to remove a contractor from the pool of Exterior Paint IDIQ contract awardees. The Off-Ramp methods include, but are not limited to, procedures specified below:

FAR Part 49--Termination of Contracts, for contractors or orders thereunder (Termination for Default, Termination for Convenience of the Government, Termination with No-Cost Settlement).

1.2. The Off-Ramp clause in no way modifies the right and responsibility of the Government or contractor under the FAR Part above, or the authority provided by the FAR in the Disputes Clause or Changes Clause. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this clause and above mentioned FAR clauses, the terms of the FAR clauses (as applicable) shall take precedence.

1.2.1. The Government will conduct an annual review of contractor participation of all FOPRs and performance of awarded TOs to determine if the contractor is meeting the expectations of the contract. The Government, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to Off-Ramp a contractor.

1.2.2. The Government will provide a 30-calendar day written notice if it intends to Off-Ramp an Exterior Paint IDIQ contractor. If the Government elects to Off-Ramp a contractor from this IDIQ, that contractor is not absolved from the responsibility to satisfactorily complete performances on all task orders issued to the contractor.

2.1. On-Ramp Procedures: The Government reserves the right to "On-Ramp" additional contractors at any time during the life of this Exterior Paint IDIQ contract by On-Ramping the selected On-Ramp contractors. On-ramping contractor(s), if necessary, is anticipated to occur within the first 36 months following the initial set of Exterior Paint IDIQ awardees in order to enhance the competitive environment of task order solicitations under the originally awarded Exterior Paint IDIQ contracts. The Government reserves the right to initiate an On-Ramp beyond 36 months. This may be due to any reason, including, but not limited to, the lack of robust competition on FOPRs, an increase in annual requirements, or a shrinking of the competitive pool of original Exterior Paint IDIQ awardees under this solicitation. The On-Ramp procedures are described below:

2.2. If it is determined to be in the Government's best interest to add contractors to the existing pool of the Exterior Paint IDIQ awardees, an On-Ramp may be executed at any time during the term of the Exterior Paint IDIQ. In this event, starting at the highest ranked On-Ramp contractor in the pool, that contractor will be offered the right of first refusal as an On-Ramp contractor. The contractor must still be eligible within the small business program and will be subject to meeting the standard contractor responsibility criteria described by FAR Part

9.104. In addition, the Contracting Officer will perform a cursory review of recent past performance (within three years of the On-Ramping) using the same procedures as the initial evaluation to determine contractor Past Performance Confidence Rating did not decrease. If the contractor is an eligible small business, determined responsible, and has no decrease in Past Performance Confidence Rating, the Government will send written notice of its intent to On-Ramp that contractor with effective date of potential award at least 30 days prior to the intended award date. If the notified highest ranked On-Ramp contractor does not agree to accept the Government's offer to be On-Ramped for any reason, the offer will be rescinded. The process will be repeated for the next highest ranked On-Ramp contractor. Once On-Ramp is completed, the On-Ramped contractor will become an additional Exterior Paint IDIQ awardee. This new contractor will then be offered an Exterior Paint IDIQ task order with an original guaranteed minimum and will be eligible to compete for future FOPRs issued against the base Exterior Paint IDIQ. The Government will promptly send a written notice to existing Exterior Paint IDIQ contract awardees of any On-Ramped contractors. The Government will not consider unsolicited requests for additional contractors.

The AFFARS Clause 5352.201-9101 Ombudsman applies to the "On-Ramp" and "Off-Ramp procedures".
