(End of clause)

H.2. GS1305 Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System

(a) FAR 42.1502 directs all Federal agencies to collect past performance information on contracts. The Department of the Interior (DOI) has implemented the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) to comply with this regulation. One or more past performance evaluations will be conducted in order to record your contract performance as required by FAR 41.15

(b) The past performance evaluation process is a totally paperless process using CPARS. CPARS is a web-based system that allows for electronic processing of the performance evaluation report. Once the report is processed, it is available in the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) for Government use in evaluation past performance as part of a source selection action.

G15PS00292 Page 13 of 38

(c) DOI will utilize the Primary and Alternate Points of Contact shown in central Contractor Registration (CCR) as the past performance contacts for your company that will be notified to complete the performance evaluation on behalf of your firm.

If you have not yet designated Past Performance Points of Contact in CCR, we recommend that you do so, and request that you furnish the Contracting Officer with the name, position title, phone number, and email address for each person designated to have access to your firm's past performance evaluation(s) for the contract no later than 30 days after award.

Each person granted access will have the ability to provide comments in the Contractor portion of the report and state whether or not the Contractor agrees with the evaluation, before returning the report to the Assessing Official. The report information must be protected as source selection sensitive information not releasable to the public.

(d) When your Contractor Representative(s) (Past Performance Points of Contact) are registered in CPARS, they will receive an automatically-generated email with detailed login instructions. Further details, systems requirements, and training information for CPARS is available at http://www.cpars.csd.disa.mil/. The CPARS User Manual, registration for On Line Training for Contractor Representatives, and a practice application may be found at this site.

(e) Within 60 days after the end of the performance period(s) specified in paragraph (a), the Contracting Officer will complete and interim or final past performance evaluation, and the report will be accessible at http://www.cpars.csd.disa.mil/.

Contractor Representatives may then provide comments in response to the evaluation, or return the evaluation without comment. Comments are limited to the space provided in Block 22. Your comments should focus on objective facts in Assessing Official's narrative and should provide your views on the causes and ramifications of the assessed performance. In addition to the ratings and supporting narratives, blocks 1 - 17 should be reviewed for accuracy, as these include key fields that will be used by the Government to identify your firm in future source selection actions. If you elect not to provide comments, please acknowledge receipt of the evaluation by indicating "Not comment" in Block 22, and then signing and dating Block 23 of the form. Without a statement in Block 22, you will be unable to sign and submit the evaluation back to the Government. If you do not sign and submit the CPAR within 30 days, it will automatically be returned to the Government and will be annotated: "The report was delivered/received by the contractor on (date). The contractor neither signed nor offered comment in response to this assessment." Your response is due within 30 calendar days after receipt of the CPAR.

(f) The following guidelines apply concerning your use of the past performance evaluation:

(1) Protect the evaluation as "source selection information." After review, transmit the evaluation by completing and submitting the form through CPARS. If for some reason you are unable to view and/or submit the form through CPARS, contact the Contracting Officer for instructions.

(2) Strictly control access to the evaluation within your organization. Ensure the evaluation is never released to persons or entities outside of your control.

(3) Prohibit the use of or reference to evaluation data for advertising, promotional material, preaward surveys, responsibility determinations, production readiness reviews, or other similar purposes.

(g) If you wish to discuss a past performance evaluation, you should request a meeting in writing to the Contracting Officer no later than seven days following your receipt of the evaluation. The meeting will be held in person or via telephone or other means during your 30-day review period.

(h) A copy of the completed past performance evaluation will be available in CPARS for your viewing and for Government use supporting source selection actions after it has been finalized.

(End of clause)

H.3. GS1310 Organizational Conflicts of Interest—General

(a) The term “organizational conflict of interest” means a situation where a contractor has interests, either due to its other activities or its relationships with other organizations, which place it in a position that may be unsatisfactory or unfavorable

(i) from the Government’s standpoint in being able to secure impartial, technically sound, objective assistance and advice from the contractor, or in securing the advantages of adequate competition in its procurement; or (ii) from industry’s standpoint in that unfair competitive advantages may accrue to the contractor in question.

(b) The contractor agrees that, if after award he discovers an organizational conflict of interest with respect to this contract, he shall make an immediate and full disclosure in writing to the Contracting Officer, which shall include a description of the action which the contractor has taken or proposes to take to avoid, eliminate, or neutralize the conflict. The Government

G15PS00292 Page 14 of 38 may, however, terminate the contract for the convenience of the Government if it would be in the best interests of the Government.

(c) In the event that the contractor was aware of organizational conflict of interest prior to the award of this contract and failed to disclose the conflict to the Contracting Officer, the Government may terminate the contract at no cost to the Government.

(End of clause)

H.4. GS1338 Notice to the Government of Delays

In the event the contractor encounters difficulty in meeting performance requirements, or when it anticipates difficulty in complying with the contract delivery schedule or date, or whenever the contractor has knowledge that any actual or potential situation is delaying or threatens to delay the timely performance of this contract, the contractor shall immediately notify the contracting officer and the COR, in writing, giving pertinent details. This data shall be informational only in character.

Notice under this provision shall not be construed as a waiver by the Government of any delivery schedule or date or of any rights or remedies provided by law or under this contract.

(End of clause)

H.5. GS1348 Accident Reporting

If an accident occurs on Government-controlled facilities, a report must be provided to the Contracting Officer's Representative and the Contracting Officer within 48 hours. An accident is defined as an event which causes injury, illness, or loss or damage to Government-owned or private property. The contractor will cooperate with any ensuing Government accident investigation.

(End of clause)

H.6. GS1354 List of Subcontractors (Construction)

For purposes of monitoring compliance with the insurance and payroll reporting requirements of this contract, the contractor shall furnish a listing of all subcontractors to the Contracting Officer within 14 calendars days after contract award.

(End of clause)

H.7. GS1366 Nondiscrimination Notice To U.S. Department of the Interior Contractors, Subcontractors, and Lessors (January 2000)

Based upon law, Executive Order, or internal policy, the Department of the Interior prohibits discrimination in the workplace, including sexual harassment, based on race, color, national origin, sex, religion, disability, age, or sexual orientation. The Department urges its contractors, subcontractors, and lessors to develop and enforce comprehensive anti-discrimination policies for their places of work.

(End of clause)

H.8. GS1414 Contractor Personnel Clearance and Identity Credentials

(a) During all operations on Government premises, contractor personnel shall comply with the rules and regulations governing the conduct of personnel and the operation of the facility.

(b) USGS rules regarding physical security and personnel security apply to all personnel in USGS facilities. The rules are contained in the following directives, available at http://www.usgs.gov/usgs-manual/handbook/index.html:

Physical Security Handbook 440-2-H National Security Position Handbook (440-7-H)

(c) Each contractor (or subcontractor) employee requiring recurring access to USGS facilities will be required to obtain a USGS-issued identification badge. Government-issued identity credentials must be worn upon entry and displayed at all times while on federally controlled property, unless otherwise instructed by the COR. Prior to obtaining the badge, the contractor is required to initiate a background suitability check on each such employee in accordance with USGS National

G15PS00292 Page 15 of 38

Security Position Handbook. The type of background investigation required is based on the risk/sensitivity level designation, as described in the Statement of Work. This clearance/credential requirement does not apply if the contractor does not have any unsupervised IT system access and will only need building access for less than 6 months or only occasional building access (such as for periodic equipment maintenance). In those cases, building procedures for visitors will be applied.

(d) At least 2 weeks before starting work, the contractor will provide a listing to the COR/technical liaison identifying contractor and subcontractor employees requiring access to USGS facilities or systems for performance of work hereunder.

(e) The contractor employees are required to complete the applicable clearance request forms provided by the COR. The following forms, or their equivalent may be used to initiate the credentialing process: SF 85 or SF 85-P (which includes authorization for credit check), SF 86, OF-306, and/or other forms designated for this purpose by the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), Federal Protective Service, or other federal agency in whose space work will be performed under this contract. The SF 86 must be completed on-line at http://www.opm.gov/e-qip/ and printed out by the employee. Contractor employees must present themselves for fingerprinting, together with the printed SF 86, other completed forms, at least 14 calendar days before starting work under this contract. If fewer than 14 days remain before the scheduled start of contract performance, the contractor employee may be allowed temporary, supervised access but must complete this application process as soon as practicable, normally within a day of his or her first arrival at the facility. An employee's refusal to provide or authorize provision of information may constitute grounds for denial or revocation of credentials. Government personnel may contact the contractor/subcontractor employee being screened or investigated in person, by telephone or in writing, and the contractor agrees to make them available for such contact. If a contractor a employee already holds a credential issued by a federal agency after clearance through OPM, provide documentation supporting this status to the COR.

USGS security officials will determine if the existing clearance can be accepted without further investigation.

(f) Badges/credentials issued upon satisfactory completion of a preliminary National Agency Check (NAC) may be revoked if the subsequent NAC with Inquiries (NACI) investigation produces an unfavorable determination. Individuals who do not pass the background investigation cannot be permitted to hold a building pass, allowed entry into the building for contract work, or permitted access to USGS systems (whether remote or on-site). In such cases, the Contractor will be required to sign (or have their subcontractor sign) a notification form indicating that their employee has been informed of the results of the background check. The Government will be the final authority in determining access privileges. The Government's exercise of its right to grant and revoke the access of particular individual(s) to its facilities, systems, or parts thereof shall not constitute a breach or change to the Contract, regardless of it impact on any individual's ability to perform work under the Contract.

(g) The Government reserves the right to require a re-submission of clearance forms and a new background investigation at any time. Failure to provide the documents within the specified time period will result in removal of the employee until such time that the documents are submitted and clearance granted. Should removal be necessary, salary/wages and other costs associated with the removed employee are not allowable or allocable under this contract. If removal would result in understaffing or non-performance of contract requirements, the Contractor shall provide a qualified and cleared replacement.

Failure to do so will entitle to Government to a downward adjustment in price reflecting the reduced level of performance.

(h) When any of their personnel leaves the company's employ, is reassigned to other work, or otherwise no longer requires access to USGS facilities or USGS computer systems, the contractor shall immediately advise the USGS COR so that those user accounts and credentials can be cancelled. The contractor will ensure that the ID badge and keys (if any) are retrieved and promptly returned to the COR, who will forward them to the issuing USGS security official. The COR must be notified in advance of any potentially unfriendly termination of an employee or subcontractor.

(i) The contractor will report any lost keys or badges to the COR within 24 hours. The COR will relay the information to the responsible building security officials. All badges and keys shall be returned to the COR at the completion of this contract.

(j) The requirements of this clause must be included in any subcontracts in which subcontract workers will need building or unsupervised system access as described in paragraph (b).

(k) For awards with no designated COR, that function will be performed by the employee designated as "Technical Liaison" (if any), or by the employee named as the "ship to" addressee.

I.22. 52.219-28 Post-Award Small Business Program Rerepresentation. (JUL 2013)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause—

Long-term contract means a contract of more than five years in duration, including options. However, the term does not include contracts that exceed five years in duration because the period of performance has been extended for a cumulative period not to exceed six months under the clause at 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, or other appropriate authority.

Small business concern means a concern, including its affiliates, that is independently owned and operated, not dominant in the field of operation in which it is bidding on Government contracts, and qualified as a small business under the criteria in 13 CFR part 121 and the size standard in paragraph (c) of this clause. Such a concern is “not dominant in its field of operation” when it does not exercise a controlling or major influence on a national basis in a kind of business activity in which a number of business concerns are primarily engaged. In determining whether dominance exists, consideration shall be given to all appropriate factors, including volume of business, number of employees, financial resources, competitive status or position, ownership or control of materials, processes, patents, license agreements, facilities, sales territory, and nature of business activity.

(b) If the Contractor represented that it was a small business concern prior to award of this contract, the Contractor shall rerepresent its size status according to paragraph (e) of this clause or, if applicable, paragraph (g) of this clause, upon the occurrence of any of the following:

(1) Within 30 days after execution of a novation agreement or within 30 days after modification of the contract to include this clause, if the novation agreement was executed prior to inclusion of this clause in the contract.
