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 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.

Continuation of SF-1449 Blocks 26: Total Award Amount

Total Not-To-Exceed Contract Ceiling: $6,000,000.00

All delivery orders issued pursuant to this contract shall not exceed the Not-To-Exceed Contract

Ceiling. The contract will remain in place and delivery orders may be issued in accordance with the contract until the Not-To-Exceed Contract Ceiling has been used in its entirety or until the contract period of performance ends, whichever occurs first.

Total Minimum Guarantee: $50,000.00 Per Geographical Location

It is anticipated that the minimum guarantee will be satisfied by the issuance of the first delivery order at time of contract award and therefore the minimum guarantee would not be obligated on the contract.

If a delivery order is not issued at the time of contract award to cover the minimum guarantee, then the contract will obligate the minimum guarantee in the amount of $50,000.00, per each geographical location. However, the $50,000.00 will be de-obligated off of each contract, via a unilateral contract modification, when the total minimum guarantee is satisfied through the award of delivery orders. If the entire minimum guarantee amount is not satisfied through the award of delivery orders during the contract period of performance, then the remaining amount of the minimum guarantee shall be paid to the Contractor via a delivery order at the end of the contract period of performance. If no delivery orders are ever awarded during the contract period of performance then the total minimum guarantee amount shall be paid to the Contractor in full at the end of the contract period of performance.

Note: If the contract is terminated for cause, the minimum guarantee or the remainder of the minimum guarantee shall not be paid to the Contractor as stated above.
