1.0 SCOPE

This award provides information technology support services to the Department of Defense (DoD) for the Designated Provider (DP) health care delivery system in support of the Military Health System (MHS) system.

The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1997 directed the DoD to include the DPs (formerly called the Uniformed Services Treatment Facilities) in the health care delivery system of the uniformed services. In 1998 each of the DPs entered sole source contracts to provide the TRICARE Prime benefit to beneficiaries of the uniformed services. The DPs administer a health care program called the Uniformed Services Family Health Plan, providing the TRICARE prime benefit to approximately 120,000 enrolled members. The DP Program Office within the TRICARE Policy and Operations Directorate is the organization that is responsible for the oversight and operations of the six DPs contract and the data support contract.

The Offeror is hereby notified that the nature of the work to be performed may create an actual or potential organizational conflict of interest in future acquisitions.

The contractor will participate in the evaluation of the proposals, products or services of other companies. To avoid conflicts which may create bias, impair the contractor’s objectivity, or give the contractor an unfair competitive advantage, it is agreed that the contractor is precluded from award of any supply or service contract or subcontract related to said technical evaluations. This restriction shall be effective for the entire period of performance and two years after.

The contractor may receive, have access to or participate in the development of proprietary or source selection information (e.g., cost or pricing information, budget information or analyses, specifications) or perform evaluation services which may create a current or subsequent OCI. To avoid conflicts which may create bias ground rules, impair the contractor’s objectivity, or give the contractor an unfair competitive advantage, it is agreed that the contractor will notify the Contracting Officer immediately of such an actual or potential OCI throughout the duration of the period of performance.

The Offeror is hereby notified that an actual or potential conflict of interest may exist with Covered DoD officials, as defined by DFARS 252.203-7000. The Offeror shall not knowingly provide compensation to a former Covered DoD official within 2 years after the official leaves DoD service, without first determining that the official has sought and received, or has not received after 30 days of seeking, a written opinion from the appropriate DoD ethics counselor regarding the applicability of post-employment restrictions to the activities that the official is expected to undertake on behalf of the Offeror. Additionally, the Offeror must disclose all intended employees on solicitation that are potential Covered DoD Officials, and get approval from the Contracting Officer prior to the involvement of Covered DoD Officials in the development of a response to the solicitation or a mitigation plan.

The Offeror shall represent in writing within the proposal that, to the best of the Offeror’s knowledge, there are no relevant facts or circumstances concerning any past, present, or potential contracts or financial interest relating to the work to be performed, which could give rise to an organizational conflict of interest, as described in FAR, Subpart 9.5. In the event an actual or potential organizational conflict of interest exist, the Offeror shall submit a mitigation plan to the Contracting Officer, no later than 10 calendar days prior to the proposal due date, that effectively demonstrates how the Offeror will mitigate any actual or potential organizational conflict of interest while supporting this contract and any other TMA contract. As a part of the proposal, the Offeror shall provide the Contracting Officer with information of previous or ongoing work that is in any way associated with this solicitation.

The Contracting Officer will review all mitigation plans to determine whether award to the Offeror is consistent with FAR, Subpart 9.5. If the Contracting Officer determines that no conflict would arise or that the mitigation plan adequately protects the interest of the Government, the Offeror will be eligible for award (assuming no other impediment). If the Contracting Officer determines that the mitigation plan is inadequate, remedial actions will be considered, including elimination from the solicitation process, termination of related contract efforts already awarded, or negotiation of the mitigation plan.

The above restrictions shall be included in all subcontracts, teaming arrangements, and other agreements calling for performance of work which is subject to the organizational conflict of interest restrictions identified in these provisions.

The Offeror acknowledges the full force and effect of these provisions. The above provisions may be modified or deleted at the discretion of the Government. The Government reserves the right, in case of a breach, misrepresentation or nondisclosure, to terminate the resultant contract, disqualify the Offeror from subsequent related contractual efforts, or pursue any remedy permitted by law, regulation or the terms and conditions of this solicitation.
