NOTICE FOR FILING AGENCY PROTESTS

United States Coast Guard Ombudsman Program

It is the policy of the United States Coast Guard (USCG) to issue solicitations and make contract awards in a fair and timely manner. The Ombudsman Program for Agency Protests (OPAP) was established to investigate agency protest issues and resolve them without expensive and time-consuming litigation. OPAP is an independent reviewing authority that is empowered to grant a prevailing protester essentially the same relief as the Government Accountability Office (GAO).

Interested parties are encouraged to seek resolution of their concerns within the USCG as an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) forum rather than filing a protest with the GAO or some external forum. Interested parties may seek resolution of their concerns informally or opt to file a formal agency protest.

Informal Forum with the Ombudsman. Interested parties who believe a specific USCG procurement is unfair or otherwise defective should first direct their concerns to the applicable Contracting Officer. If the Contracting Officer is unable to satisfy their concerns, interested parties are encouraged to contact the U.S. Coast Guard Ombudsman for Agency Protests. Under this informal process the agency is not required to suspend contract award performance. Use of an informal forum does not suspend any time requirement for filing a protest with the agency or other forum. In order to ensure a timely response, interested parties should provide the following information to the Ombudsman: solicitation/contract number, contracting office, Contracting Officer, and solicitation closing date (if applicable).

Formal Agency Protest with the Ombudsman. Prior to submitting a formal agency protest, protesters must first use their best efforts to resolve their concerns with the Contracting Officer through open and frank discussions. If the protester’s concerns are unresolved, an Independent Review is available by the Ombudsman. The protester may file a formal agency protest to either the Contracting Officer or as an alternative to that, the Ombudsman under the OPAP program. Contract award or performance will be suspended during the protest period unless contract award or performance is justified, in writing for urgent and compelling reasons or is determined in writing to be in the best interest of the Government. The agency’s goal is to resolve protests in less than 35 calendar days from the date of filing. Protests shall include the information set forth in FAR 33.103(d) (2). If the protester fails to submit the required information, resolution of the protest may be delayed or the protest may be dismissed. To be timely protests must be filed within the period specified in FAR 33.103(e). Formal protests filed under the OPAP program should be submitted electronically to OPAP@uscg.mil and the Contracting Officer of by hand delivery to the Contracting Officer.

Election of Forum. After an interested party protests a Coast Guard procurement to the Contracting Officer or the Ombudsman, and while the protest is pending, the protester agrees not to file a protest with the GAO or other external forum. If the protest is filed with an external forum, the agency protest will be dismissed. The Ombudsman Hotline telephone number is (202) 372-3695.

1. FAR Clause 52.212-4, “Contract Terms and Conditions–Commercial Items” MAY 2015 The following 52.212-4 paragraphs have been tailored:

(K) Taxes – Tailored The contract price (including unit prices) includes all applicable Federal, State, and local taxes and duties.

(p) Limitation of Liability. – Tailored

1) The Contractor shall assume all liability for and shall indemnify and save harmless the Government, its officers, enlisted personnel, agents and employees from and against any loss, damage or injury which may be sustained by any person or persons, whether they be employees, agents, or representatives of the parties hereto, or third persons, as a result of the Contractor‘s failure to perform this contract as required by its terms. The Contractor also shall be liable for and shall at all times defend, indemnify and hold harmless the government, its officers, enlisted personnel, agents and employees from and against any and all public or private environmental claims or liabilities arising from the Contractor‘s performance of this contract; public or private environmental claims or liabilities shall include but not be limited to civil and criminal penalties, natural resource damages, response costs, cleanup and remediation, damage to government and third party property, and any other third party liability.

(2) In the event any such claim or demand is made upon the Government, its officers, enlisted personnel, agents or employees, or in the event any suit therefore is instituted, the Government shall give immediate notice of such claim or suit to the Contractor and will refrain from any payment or demand with respect to such claim or suit without first allowing the Contractor a reasonable opportunity to resolve the claim. The Contractor‘s liability under this clause shall include reimbursement to the Government, its officers, enlisted personnel, agents and employees for any judgments, payments or litigation expenses occasioned to them in connection with claims, demands or suits of which notice has been given by the Government.

(3) The Contractor releases the Government, its officers, enlisted personnel, agents and employees from any liability for any loss, damage or injury which may be sustained by the Contractor‘s failure to perform this contract as required by its terms.

(4) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this clause, the Contractor shall not be liable for or required to defend, indemnify, hold harmless or release the Government, its officers, enlisted personnel, agents and employees for any judgments, payments or expenses arising out of and to the extent of the gross negligence, willful misconduct or criminal acts of the Government, its officers, enlisted personnel, agents or employees.

(t) System for Award Management (SAM). – Tailored

(1) Unless exempted by an addendum to this contract, the Contractor is responsible during performance and through final payment of any contract for the accuracy and completeness of the data within the SAM database, and for any liability resulting from the Government’s reliance on inaccurate or incomplete data. To remain registered in the SAM database after the initial registration, the Contractor is required to review and update on an annual basis from the date of initial registration or subsequent updates its information in the SAM database to ensure it is current, accurate and complete. Updating information in the SAM does not alter the terms and conditions of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed contractual document.

(2) (i) If a Contractor has legally changed its business name, “doing business as” name, or division name (whichever is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets used in performing the contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements regarding novation and change-of-name agreements in FAR Subpart 42.12, the Contractor shall provide the responsible Contracting Officer a minimum of one business day’s written notification of its intention to (A) change the name in the SAM database; (B) comply with the requirements of Subpart 42.12; and (C) agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the responsible Contracting Officer. The Contractor must provide with the notification sufficient documentation to support the legally changed name.

(ii) If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (t)(2)(i) of this clause, or fails to perform the agreement at paragraph (t)(2)(i)(C) of this clause, and, in the absence of a properly executed novation or change-of-name agreement, the SAM information that shows the Contractor to be other than the Contractor indicated in the contract will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the “Suspension of Payment” paragraph of the electronic funds transfer (EFT) clause of this contract.

(3) The Contractor shall not change the name or address for EFT payments or manual payments, as appropriate, in the SAM record to reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims (see Subpart 32.8, Assignment of Claims). Assignees shall be separately registered in the SAM database. Information provided to the Contractor’s SAM record that indicates payments, including those made by EFT, to an ultimate recipient other than that Contractor will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the “Suspension of payment” paragraph of the EFT clause of this contract.

(4) Offerors and Contractors may obtain information on registration and annual confirmation requirements via SAM accessed through https://www.acquisition.gov .

ADDENDUM TO FAR CLAUSE 52.212-4; the following paragraphs are added to the clause.

(v) Contractor Performance Evaluations.

(1) In accordance with FAR Subpart 42.15, Contractor Performance Information, the Contractor's performance may be evaluated throughout the contract (and task/delivery order) period of performance. The results will be compiled and reported in a Contractor Performance Report for use by this agency and other government agencies for future source selection decisions. The report will be compiled jointly by the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) and the Contracting Officer. The Contracting Officer will forward the report to the Contractor for comments. In the case of a contract with option years, interim reports will be completed.

(2) The areas to be evaluated include, but are not limited to: Quality of Product or Service, Schedule, Cost Control, Business Relations, Management of Key Personnel, and Utilization of Small Business.

(3) Each area may be evaluated using the following scale: Exceptional, Very Good, Satisfactory, Marginal and Unsatisfactory.

(4) The Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) may be used for all performance evaluations. Copies of the reports will be maintained in the CPARS database and in hard copy in the official contract file.

(5) The results of the report will be provided to the Contractor who will be given a period of thirty (30) days to review and provide comments. All comments will be considered by the Contracting Officer and reviewed in accordance with FAR 42.1503. The report will be marked "Source Selection Information" and safeguarded ‘for official use only’ in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation Part 3.104. Since there is a limitation of 2000 characters for each area evaluated, there may be an occasion that all evaluations and comments be manually addressed and maintained in the official contract file. If this is the case, each area will be annotated to contact the cognizant Contracting Officer for all evaluation documentation.

FAR Clause 52.204-1: Approval of Contract (DEC 1989).

This contract is subject to the written approval of a Contracting Officer from the United States Coast Guard, Shore Infrastructure Logistics Center, (SILC) Chief of Contracting Office for Base Support and Services, COB4 and shall not be binding until so approved.

5. HSAR Clause 3052.209-70 “Prohibition on Contracts with Corporate Expatriates” JUN 2006

(a) Prohibitions.

Section 835 of the Homeland Security Act, 6 U.S.C. 395, prohibits the Department of Homeland Security from entering into any contract with a foreign incorporated entity which is treated as an inverted domestic corporation as defined in this clause, or with any subsidiary of such an entity. The Secretary shall waive the prohibition with respect to any specific contract if the Secretary determines that the waiver is required in the interest of national security.

(b) Definitions. As used in this clause:

“Expanded Affiliated Group” means an affiliated group as defined in section 1504(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (without regard to section 1504(b) of such Code), except that section 1504 of such Code shall be applied by substituting `more than 50 percent' for `at least 80 percent' each place it appears.

“Foreign Incorporated Entity” means any entity which is, or but for subsection (b) of section 835 of the Homeland Security Act, 6 U.S.C. 395, would be, treated as a foreign corporation for purposes of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.

“Inverted Domestic Corporation”. A foreign incorporated entity shall be treated as an inverted domestic corporation if, pursuant to a plan (or a series of related transactions)—

(1) The entity completes the direct or indirect acquisition of substantially all of the properties held directly or indirectly by a domestic corporation or substantially all of the properties constituting a trade or business of a domestic partnership;

(2) After the acquisition at least 80 percent of the stock (by vote or value) of the entity is held—

(i) In the case of an acquisition with respect to a domestic corporation, by former shareholders of the domestic corporation by reason of holding stock in the domestic corporation; or

(ii) In the case of an acquisition with respect to a domestic partnership, by former partners of the domestic partnership by reason of holding a capital or profits interest in the domestic partnership; and

(3) The expanded affiliated group which after the acquisition includes the entity does not have substantial business activities in the foreign country in which or under the law of which the entity is created or organized when compared to the total business activities of such expanded affiliated group.

“Person, domestic, and foreign” have the meanings given such terms by paragraphs (1), (4), and (5) of section 7701(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, respectively.

(c) Special rules. The following definitions and special rules shall apply when determining whether a foreign incorporated entity should be treated as an inverted domestic corporation.

(1) Certain stock disregarded. For the purpose of treating a foreign incorporated entity as an inverted domestic corporation these shall not be taken into account in determining ownership:

(i) Stock held by members of the expanded affiliated group which includes the foreign incorporated entity; or

(ii) Stock of such entity which is sold in a public offering related to an acquisition described in section 835(b)(1) of the Homeland Security Act, 6 U.S.C. 395(b)(1).

(2) Plan deemed in certain cases. If a foreign incorporated entity acquires directly or indirectly substantially all of the properties of a domestic corporation or partnership during the 4-year period beginning on the date which is 2 years before the ownership requirements of subsection (b)(2) are met, such actions shall be treated as pursuant to a plan.

(3) Certain transfers disregarded. The transfer of properties or liabilities (including by contribution or distribution) shall be disregarded if such transfers are part of a plan a principal purpose of which is to avoid the purposes of this section.

(d) Special rule for related partnerships. For purposes of applying section 835(b) of the Homeland Security Act, 6 U.S.C. 395(b) to the acquisition of a domestic partnership, except as provided in regulations, all domestic partnerships which are under common control (within the meaning of section 482 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986) shall be treated as a partnership.

(e) Treatment of Certain Rights.

(1) Certain rights shall be treated as stocks to the extent necessary to reflect the present value of all equitable interests incident to the transaction, as follows:

(i) warrants;

(ii) options;

(iii) contracts to acquire stock;

(iv) convertible debt instruments; and

(v) others similar interests.

(2) Rights labeled as stocks shall not be treated as stocks whenever it is deemed appropriate to do so to reflect the present value of the transaction or to disregard transactions whose recognition would defeat the purpose of Section 835.

(f) Disclosure. The offeror under this solicitation represents that [Check one]:
