Affirmative Procurement Program

(a) GSA is required to procure and use products containing recovered materials, environmentally preferable, and bio-based products. These items will be used to the maximum extent feasible unless the item is not available competitively within a reasonable time frame, does not meet appropriate performance standards, or is only available at an unreasonable price.

(b) In support of this program, products that meet the following criteria are considered acceptable--

(3) Products to be designated, in the future, as bio-based products on the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Bio-based Products List.

(c) In accordance with the FAR 52.223-9, Certification and Estimate of Percentage of Recovered Material Content for EPA-Designated Items, the contractor must provide the required certification and estimate at contract completion.

Suitability Determinations

(a) All contract employees requiring routine unescorted access to Federally-controlled facilities and/or information systems for more than 6 months (Regular Employees) will be required to undergo a suitability determination before a facility identification card is issued. Prior to the time that an identification card is issued, such Regular Employees will be required to comply with normal facility access control procedures, including sign-in, temporary badging, and escorted entry, as applicable.

(b) Failure of a Regular Employee to receive a favorable suitability determination shall be cause for removal of the employee from the work site and from other work in connection with the Contract.

(c) Contract employees working less than 6 months (Temporary Employees) may, at the Government's option, be required to undergo a lesser form of suitability determination. Prior to the time that an identification card is issued, if at all, such Temporary Employees will be required to comply with normal facility access control procedures, including sign-in, temporary badging, and escorted entry, as applicable.

(d) Temporary Employees who have not received a favorable suitability determination shall be escorted at all times while in non-public space, as directed by the Government.

(e) The Government, at its sole discretion, may grant temporary suitability determinations to Regular or Temporary Employees. However, the granting of a temporary suitability determination to any such employee shall not be considered as assurance that a favorable suitability determination will follow.

(f)The Contracting Officer or his/her designated representative shall provide the Contractor with required forms for obtaining necessary clearances. The Contractor shall be required to cause such forms to be returned to the Government for processing not later than 14 days following being provided by the Government.

(g) The Contractor shall be responsible for planning and scheduling its work in such a manner as to account for facility access issues. Difficulties encountered by the Contractor in gaining access to facilities by its employees and subcontractors shall not be an excuse to any Contractor performance under the Contract.

Identification Credential

Upon receipt of favorable suitability determination as indicated in this document, each employee of the Contractor will be issued an identification credential. At all times while working on the contract, a contract employee, including subcontractor employees, shall have in his or her possession the specific Government identification credential issued to him or her by the Government. The identification credential shall be displayed and be visible at all times while on Government property.

The COR, GSA personnel designated by the COR, Government law enforcement, or security personnel shall periodically verify passes of Contractor employees with their personnel identification. Contractor employees shall comply with security verification procedures at all times.

The Contractor shall ensure that every contract employee has a Government issued identification credential before the employee enters on duty. As required by the Government, the Contractor shall make his employees available for photo identification badges, on a schedule to be worked out with the COR. The Government will make the identification credentials after a favorable security determination has been received for the Contractor’s employees. Each identification credential shall have an expiration date and Contractor employees shall sign each badge at the time of photographing.

The Contractor shall be responsible for ensuring that all identification credentials are returned to the COR Officer's Representative whenever his employees leave the contract (when the contract has been completed, employees leave the company, or employees are dismissed or terminated). The Contractor shall notify the COR Officer’s Representative whenever employee badges are lost.

The Contractor will be responsible for paying the Government for replacement credentials at the current cost per badge.

Contractor employees must have a valid driver’s license.

Escort Requirements

It may be necessary to escort temporary contract employees who do not have favorable preliminary or final suitability determinations and shall work in federally controlled space. In those cases, all non-cleared contract employees shall be escorted in nonpublic space by a Government employee or another responsible cleared contract employee who is

Boston Service Center

Solicitation GS-01P-12-BW-C-0064 Maine

Snow Removal Services approved by the CO or designee. Other Government agencies may have specific agency security requirements for their own space that may only allow escort by Government employees or those designated by their agency. Government employees or approved cleared contract employees who provide escorts for non-cleared contract employees shall always be in close proximity and within eyesight of the non-cleared contract employee. The contract escort shall watch non-cleared employees and remain with non-cleared contract employees for the entire time they are in the building and or federally controlled space. Non-cleared employees cannot be left alone or out of eyesight at anytime they are in nonpublic space. A cleared and approved escort may not allow several non-cleared contract employees to be in federally controlled space, that is not within close proximity and within eyesight at all times. A cleared and approved escort may not allow multiple non-cleared employees in non public space on different parts of one floor or different floors at the same time. Any security violation of escort requirements by a cleared and approved contract employee will result in the immediate removal from the contract of all contract employees involved, i.e., escorts and non-cleared escorted contract employees.

Also, violations of escort requirements by contract employees in accordance with security requirements may be grounds for termination of the contract.

Standards of Conduct

The Contractor shall be responsible for maintaining satisfactory standards of employee competency, conduct, appearance, and integrity and shall be responsible for taking such disciplinary action with respect to its employees as may be necessary.

Removal from Contract Work

Under the following conditions, the CO or representative may request the Contractor to immediately remove any employee from the work site:

When the Government determines the employee to be incompetent, careless, insubordinate, unsuitable, or otherwise objectionable.

When the Government deems the employee’s continued employment to be contrary to the public interest, inconsistent with the best interests of security, or when the employee is identified as a potential threat to the health, safety, security, general well being, or operational mission of the facility and its population.

The CO may also request the Contractor to immediately remove any employee from the work site if it is determined that individuals are being assigned to duty who have been disqualified for either suitability or security reasons or who are found to be unfit for performing duties during their tour of duty.

Contractor employees who are removed from contract work shall be required to leave the work site immediately.

The Contractor shall comply with any removal request. For clarification, a determination to remove an employee will be made for, but is not limited to, incidents involving the most immediately identifiable types of misconduct or delinquency as set forth below:

A. Failure to receive a suitability determination, temporary clearance, or clearance from GSA or a tenant agency.

B. Violation of Federal, State, or local law.

C. Violation of the Rules and Regulations Governing Public Buildings and Grounds, 41 CFR 101-20.3. This includes the carrying or possession of explosives or items intended to be used to fabricate an explosive or incendiary device.

D. Neglect of duty, including sleeping while on duty, unreasonable delays, or failure to carry out assigned tasks, conducting personal affairs during official time or refusing to render assistance, or to cooperate in upholding the integrity of the security program at the work site.

E. Falsification or unlawful concealment, removal, mutilation, or destruction of any official documents or records, or concealment of material facts by willful omissions from official documents or records.

G. Theft, vandalism, immoral conduct, or any other criminal actions.

H. Selling, consuming, or being under the influence of intoxicants, drugs, or substances that produce similar effects while in or on federally controlled property.

I. Improper use of Government identification.

K. Violation of security procedures or regulations.

L. Violation of Title 18, U.S.C., Section 930, which prohibits the knowing possession or the causing to be present of firearms or other dangerous weapons in Federal facilities and Court facilities.

The CO will make all determinations regarding the removal of any employee from work site, except under certain conditions. When a CO is not available, either during the day or after hours, or in situations where a delay would not be in the best interest of the Government or is identified as a potential threat to the health, safety, security, general well being, or operational mission of the facility and its population, the COR will have the authority to immediately remove the contract employee from the work site.

Law enforcement officers of the Department of Homeland Security/Immigration and Customs Enforcement/Federal Protective Service (DHS/ICE/FPS) will have the authority to immediately remove any contract employee from the work site who is found to be in violation of any of the items mentioned above and where a delay in removal would not be in the best interest of the Government or security or is identified as a potential threat to the health, safety, security, general well being, or operational mission of the facility and its population. The CO will be notified as soon after the incident as practical or at the beginning of the next business day if an action happened after hours. The CO will make all official notifications to the Contractor. In the event of a dispute, the CO will make a final determination. Specific reasons for removal of an employee will be provided to the Contractor in writing by the CO.

The Contractor is responsible for providing replacement employees in cases where contract employees are removed from working at the work site or on the contract.

Government Forms

The various Government forms mentioned in this document may be obtained from the COR.

Other Contractors

The Government may undertake or award other contracts for additional work, and the Contractor shall fully cooperate with such other Contractors or Government employees. The Contractor shall carefully schedule his own work, in conjunction with the additional work, as may be directed by the COR. In addition, the Contractor shall not commit or permit any act that will interfere with the performance of work by another Contractor or by Government employees.

Ordinances, Taxes, Permits, and Licenses

Without additional expense to the Government, the Contractor shall fully comply with all local, city, State, and Federal laws, regulations, and ordinances. The Contractor will also be liable for all applicable Federal, State, and local taxes and shall obtain and pay for all permits and licenses governing performance under the contract.
