3.0 SPECIAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS/REQUIREMENTS

3.1 Personal Services

The client has determined that use of a GSA contract to satisfy this requirement is in the best interest of the

Government, economic and other factors considered, and this contract is not being used to procure personal services prohibited by the FAR Part 37.104 titled “Personal services contract”.

To counter the circumstances that infer personal services and to preserve the non-personal nature of the contract, the contractor shall adhere to the following guidelines in the performance of the task:

• Contractor provides for direct supervision of all contract employees assigned to the task.

• Refrain from discussing the issues such as skill levels and hours, salaries, cost and funding data, or administrative and personnel matters affecting contractor employees with the client.

• Ensure close communication/coordination with the GSA PM, reporting problems to the PM as they occur

(not waiting for a monthly meeting).

• Do not permit Government officials to interview potential contractor employees, discuss individual performance, approve leave or work scheduling of contractor employees, terminate contractor employees, assist contractor employees in doing their jobs or obtain assistance from the contractor in doing

Government job.

• Do not assign contractor personnel to work under direct Government supervision.

• Maintain a professional distance from Government employees.

• Provide contractor employees with badges, if appropriate, identifying them as contractors.

• Ensure proper communications with the Government (technical discussion and Government surveillance is okay, but the Government cannot tell the contractor how to do the job).

• Assign a task leader to the contract. The task leader or alternate should be the only one who accepts tasking from the assigned Government point of contact or alternative.

• The Government has the right to reject the finished product or result and this does not constitute personal services.

• When travel is required for the performance on a task, the contractor personnel are only to travel as directed by their contract management.

3.2 Privacy Act

Work on this project may require that personnel have access to Privacy Information. Personnel shall adhere to the Privacy Act, Title 5 of the U.S. Code, Section 552a and applicable agency rules and regulations.

3.3 Unilateral Modifications for Funds Management

The standard verbiage in FAR 52.212-4 (c), which is the paragraph titled “Changes,” relating to “Contract

Terms and Conditions – Commercial Items Clause” which states: “Changes to the terms and conditions of this contract may be made only by written agreement of the parties,” is hereby tailored to allow unilateral modifications to be issued after award of this task to obligate funding (if applicable). The acceptance of the task award by the Contractor constitutes written agreement of both parties that all future modifications issued for the obligation of funding will be issued by the GSA Contracting Officer unilaterally. The

Contractor has responsibility for funds monitoring and tracking so by acceptance of this change, the

Contractor is agreeing to obtain in a timely manner the unilateral modifications from ITSS for the purpose of ensuring that funding totals are not exceeded and to ensure the Contractor’s responsibility for tracking and reporting deficits in funding can be accomplished per the terms of the PWS.

3.4 Organizational Conflict of Interest (OCI)

• The guidelines and procedures of FAR Subpart 9.5 and GSAM Subpart 509.5, Organizational and Consultant Conflicts of Interest, and FAR Part 3 and GSAM

Part 3, Improper Business Practices and Personal Conflicts of Interest, will be used in identifying and resolving any issues of a conflict of interest under this contract.

• In the event that this contract requires activity that would create an actual or potential conflict of interest, the Contractor shall immediately notify the Contracting Officer of the conflict, submit a plan for mitigation, and not commence work until specifically notified by the Contracting Officer to proceed; or, identify the conflict and recommend to the Contracting Officer an alternate approach to avoid the conflict. The

Contractor shall not contract with Government prime Contractors or first-tier subcontractors in such a way as to create an OCI. Offerors are required to disclose any existing or potential OCIs in their proposal as well as submit an OCI Mitigation Plan proposing measures to avoid, mitigate or neutralize identifies OCIs

(Reference Appendix A and Appendix B).

• Definitions: “Contractor” means the person, firm, unincorporated association, joint venture, partnership, or corporation that is a party to this contract. “Contractor and its affiliates” and “Contractor or its affiliates” refers to the Contractor, its chief executives, directors, officers, subsidiaries, affiliates, subcontractors at any tier, and consultants and any joint venture involving the Contractor, any entity into or with which the

Contractor subsequently merges or affiliates, or any other successor or assignee of the Contractor.

• An “OCI” exists when the nature of the work to be performed under a proposed ordering activity contract, without some restriction on ordering activities by the Contractor and its affiliates, may either (i) result in an unfair competitive advantage to the Contractor or its affiliates or (ii) impair the Contractor’s or its affiliates’ objectivity in performing contract work.

• To avoid an organizational or financial conflict of interest and to avoid prejudicing the best interests of the ordering activity, ordering activities may place restrictions on the Contractors, its affiliates, chief executives, directors, subsidiaries and subcontractors at any tier when placing orders against schedule contracts. Such restrictions shall be consistent with FAR 9.505 and shall be designed to avoid, neutralize, or mitigate OCIs that might otherwise exist in situations stated in FAR 9.505. Examples of situations which may require restrictions are provided at FAR 9.508.

7.0 OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

Accomplishment of all work included in this PWS may require the Contractor to coordinate with and work cohesively with other contractors on site. The Contractor shall work with all other onsite contractors to develop work schedules that will ensure all work under this task is completed by the specified ultimate completion date in the most efficient manner possible. The Contractor shall arrange their crew’s schedule and perform this work so as not to interfere with operations of the Government and the operations of other contractors. The Government is not responsible for, nor is it responsible for paying for, delays caused by a lack of coordination with other contractors or subcontractors. The Government will not pay for delays or other damages due to lack of coordination with other onsite contractors and subcontractors.

https://www.cpars.gov/

If the Contracting Officer determines that the contractor is failing to coordinate his work with the work of other contractors as directed, he/she may upon written notice:

• Withhold any payment otherwise due hereunder until his/her directions are complied with by the

Contractor.

• Direct others to perform portions of the contract and charge cost of work to contract amount.

• Terminate any and all portions of contract for his failure to perform in accordance with contract.

Failure to work cooperatively and cohesively with other contractors on site will result in the occurrence being documented on the Contractor’s Performance Assessment Report, which could have a negative impact on winning future work where Past Performance is an evaluation factor.

The Contracting Officer may consider time extensions and equitable adjustments only if he/ she can determine the delays effecting the ultimate completion date were solely caused by the Government.

8.0 THIRD PARTY SCHEDULE DELAYS

GSA does not warrant and cannot guarantee that the site will remain free from interference by third parties, with whom the Government has no contractual relationship.
