52.237-4501

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN GOVERNMENT, CONTRACTOR AND CONTRACTOR

PERSONNEL (OCT 1995)

a. The Government and the Contractor understand and agree that the services to be performed under this contract by the Contractor are non-personal services and the parties recognize and agree that no employer-employee or master-servant relationship exist or will exist under the contract between the Government and the Contractor and/or between the Government and the contractor's personnel. The contractor personnel shall be responsible, not to the Government but solely to the Contractor, who, in turn, shall be accountable to the Government.

b. The Government shall not exercise any supervision or control over Contractor personnel performing services under this contract. Contractor personnel shall not be placed under the supervision, direction, or evaluation of a Federal officer, military or civilian, in connection with performance under this contract. Likewise, Contractor personnel shall not be placed in a position of command, supervision, administration or control over DOD military or civilian personnel, or personnel of other prime contractors, performing under this contract.

c. The Contractor shall be responsible for selecting personnel who are well qualified to perform the required services, for supervising techniques used in their work and for keeping them informed of all improvements, changes and method of operations.

d. Rules, regulations, directives and requirements which are issued during the contract term by DOD Military Command Authorities, under their responsibility for law and order, administration, and security on the installation shall be applicable to all Contractor personnel or representatives who enter the installation, or who travel on Government transportation. This requirement shall not be construed or interpreted to establish any degree of Government control which is inconsistent with the intent of a non-personal services contract. Contractor personnel or representatives shall be subject to such checks as may be deemed necessary to assure that their presence on the installation does not violate these requirements. No employee will be permitted on the installation when such a check reveals that his presence would be detrimental to the security of the installation or the accomplishment of work. When directed by the Contracting Officer, the Contractor shall remove any employee from an assignment to perform services under this contract for reasons of misconduct or breaches of security in connection with his or her employment. Under such circumstances, replacement cost will be a Contractor expense and not reimbursable by the Government. In other instances, the Contractor shall take appropriate personnel action as required in the event of the employee misconduct in connection with his or her employment.

e. The services to be performed under this contract shall not require the Contractor or his employees to exercise personal judgement and discretion on behalf of the Government, but rather, the Contractor's employee shall act and exercise personal judgement and discretion on behalf of the contractor.

f. Contractor and Contractor personnel shall not be considered employees of the Federal Government and shall not be eligible, by virtue of performance under this contract, for payment by the Government of entitlements and benefits accorded federal employees.

g. The entire consideration to the Contractor for performance of this contract is contained in the provisions for payment set forth in this contract.

52.237-4503 MOBILIZATION AND CONTINGENCY PLANNING (OCT 1995)

a. In the event of a general or limited mobilization of reserve forces or an emergency which impacts upon contract performance, the contractor shall take whatever measures needed to meet any new demands placed upon him. Such demands may require increased contractor furnished property, materials, extended work hours and increased number of personnel. Added responsibility, as a result of this requirement will be added by change order or supplemental agreement by the Contracting Officer. No price increase shall become effective until approval by the Contracting Officer.

b. To ensure that Government operations, which depend upon the services provided by this contract, can proceed with no or only minimal disruption, the contractor shall therefore plan for a mobilization or similar emergency and take actions needed to rapidly expand his contract capabilities to meet the exigency. Added responsibilities as a result of this requirement, will be added by change order or supplemental agreement by the Contracting Officer. No price increase shall become effective until approval by the Contracting Officer.

52.245-4500 MEDICAL TREATMENT (OCT 1995)

Government emergency vehicles and medical personnel may be used in emergency situations affecting Contractor personnel whose life may be in danger or who is suffering unendurable pain. Government facilities may be used in these instances as the first point of treatment. Transfer to other than Government medical treatment facilities shall be effected as soon as possible and as determined by attending medical authorities. Based on medical center policies in effect, charges may be made to the employee.

52.246-4505 GOVERNMENT PERFORMANCE OF SERVICES (OCT 1995)

a. If, for any reason, the Contractor fails to perform any services covered by this contract, or should an emergency require performance of services beyond the capability of the contractor, the Government may, if the Contracting Officer determines that the mission at Laughlin AFB Commissary is endangered, perform or supplement performance of such contract services with Government personnel. Such performance shall not constitute a breach of contract by the Government.

b. If the Government performs services with Government personnel because of the Contractor's failure to perform, as provided in paragraph "a" above, the Contractor shall permit the Government to use and operate such equipment as necessary to perform the function during a period not to exceed one hundred twenty (120) days at the location covered by the contract. The Government's right to use Contractor equipment, pursuant to this subparagraph b, shall cease in the event of cancellation of the contract. During this period any contractor-owned equipment used by the Government shall be maintained by the Government.

c. The Government shall be entitled to an equitable adjustment for the services, if any, which were performed by the Government personnel due to the Contractor's failure to perform required services. The deduction shall be made in accordance with other provisions of this contract. Government performance of services will not constitute a termination for convenience by the Government within the meaning of the FAR Clause 52.249-2.

52.219-28 POST-AWARD SMALL BUSINESS PROGRAM REREPRESENTATION (APR 2009)

(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.

(2) Within 30 days after a merger or acquisition that does not require a novation or within 30 days after modification of the contract to include this clause, if the merger or acquisition occurred prior to inclusion of this clause in the contract.

(3) For long-term contracts--

(i) Within 60 to 120 days prior to the end of the fifth year of the contract; and

(ii) Within 60 to 120 days prior to the date specified in the contract for exercising any option thereafter.

(c) The Contractor shall rerepresent its size status in accordance with the size standard in effect at the time of this rerepresentation that corresponds to the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code assigned to this contract. The small business size standard corresponding to this NAICS code can be found at http://www.sba.gov/services/contractingopportunities/sizestandardstopics/.

(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.

52.232-33 PAYMENT BY ELECTRONIC FUNDS TRANSFER—CENTRAL CONTRACTOR REGISTRATION (OCT 2003)

(a) Method of payment. (1) All payments by the Government under this contract shall be made by electronic funds transfer (EFT), except as provided in paragraph (a)(2) of this clause. As used in this clause, the term “EFT” refers to the funds transfer and may also include the payment information transfer.

(2) In the event the Government is unable to release one or more payments by EFT, the Contractor agrees to either--

(i) Accept payment by check or some other mutually agreeable method of payment; or

(ii) Request the Government to extend the payment due date until such time as the Government can make payment by EFT (but see paragraph (d) of this clause).

(b) Contractor's EFT information. The Government shall make payment to the Contractor using the EFT information contained in the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database. In the event that the EFT information changes, the Contractor shall be responsible for providing the updated information to the CCR database.

(c) Mechanisms for EFT payment. The Government may make payment by EFT through either the Automated Clearing House (ACH) network, subject to the rules of the National Automated Clearing House Association, or the Fedwire Transfer System. The rules governing Federal payments through the ACH are contained in 31 CFR part 210.

(d) Suspension of payment. If the Contractor's EFT information in the CCR database is incorrect, then the Government need not make payment to the Contractor under this contract until correct EFT information is entered into the CCR database; and any invoice or contract financing request shall be deemed not to be a proper invoice for the purpose of prompt payment under this contract. The prompt payment terms of the contract regarding notice of an improper invoice and delays in accrual of interest penalties apply.

(e) Liability for uncompleted or erroneous transfers. (1) If an uncompleted or erroneous transfer occurs because the Government used the Contractor's EFT information incorrectly, the Government remains responsible for--

(i) Making a correct payment;

(ii) Paying any prompt payment penalty due; and

(iii) Recovering any erroneously directed funds.

(2) If an uncompleted or erroneous transfer occurs because the Contractor's EFT information was incorrect, or was revised within 30 days of Government release of the EFT payment transaction instruction to the Federal Reserve System, and--

(i) If the funds are no longer under the control of the payment office, the Government is deemed to have made payment and the Contractor is responsible for recovery of any erroneously directed funds; or

(ii) If the funds remain under the control of the payment office, the Government shall not make payment, and the provisions of paragraph (d) of this clause shall apply.

(f) EFT and prompt payment. A payment shall be deemed to have been made in a timely manner in accordance with the prompt payment terms of this contract if, in the EFT payment transaction instruction released to the Federal Reserve System, the date specified for settlement of the payment is on or before the prompt payment due date, provided the specified payment date is a valid date under the rules of the Federal Reserve System.

(g) EFT and assignment of claims. If the Contractor assigns the proceeds of this contract as provided for in the assignment of claims terms of this contract, the Contractor shall require as a condition of any such assignment, that the assignee shall register separately in the CCR database and shall be paid by EFT in accordance with the terms of this clause. Notwithstanding any other requirement of this contract, payment to an ultimate recipient other than the Contractor, or a financial institution properly recognized under an assignment of claims pursuant to subpart 32.8, is not permitted. In all respects, the requirements of this clause shall apply to the assignee as if it were the Contractor.
