*52.209-13 – Violation of Arms Control Treaties or Agreements – Certification (Nov 2021)
(a) This provision does not apply to acquisitions at or below the simplified acquisition threshold or to acquisitions of commercial products and commercial services as defined in Federal Acquisition Regulation 2.101.
(b) Certification. [Offeror shall check either (1) or (2).] __ (1) The Offeror certifies that–
(i) It does not engage and has not engaged in any activity that contributed to or was a significant factor in the President's or Secretary of State 's determination that a foreign country is in violation of its obligations undertaken in any arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament agreement to which the United States is a party, or is not adhering to its arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament commitments in which the United States is a participating state . The determinations are described in the most recent unclassified annual report provided to Congress pursuant to section 403 of the Arms Control and Disarmament Act ( 22 U.S.C. 2593a). The report is available at https://www.state.gov/bureaus-offices/under-secretary-for-arms-control-and-international-security-affairs/bureau-of-arms-control-verification-and-compliance/; and
(ii) No entity owned or controlled by the Offeror has engaged in any activity that contributed to or was a significant factor in the President's or Secretary of State 's determination that a foreign country is in violation of its obligations undertaken in any arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament agreement to which the United States is a party, or is not adhering to its arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament commitments in which the United States is a participating state . The determinations are described in the most recent unclassified annual report provided to Congress pursuant to section 403 of the Arms Control and Disarmament Act ( 22 U.S.C. 2593a). The report is available at https://www.state.gov/bureaus-offices/under-secretary-for-arms-control-and-international-security-affairs/bureau-of-arms-control-verification-and-compliance/; or __ (2) The Offeror is providing separate information with its offer in accordance with paragraph (d)(2) of this provision.
(c) Procedures for reviewing the annual unclassified report (see paragraph (b)(1) of this provision). For clarity, references to the report in this section refer to the entirety of the annual unclassified report, including any separate reports that are incorporated by reference into the annual unclassified report.
(1) Check the table of contents of the annual unclassified report and the country section headings of the reports incorporated by reference to identify the foreign countries listed there. Determine whether the Offeror or any person owned or controlled by the Offeror may have engaged in any activity related to one or more of such foreign countries.
(2) If there may have been such activity, review all findings in the report associated with those foreign countries to determine whether or not each such foreign country was determined to be in violation of its obligations undertaken in an arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament agreement to which the United States is a party, or to be not adhering to its arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament commitments in which the United States is a participating state . For clarity, in the annual report an explicit certification of non-compliance is equivalent to a determination of violation. However, the following statements in the annual report are not equivalent to a determination of violation:
(i) An inability to certify compliance.
(ii) An inability to conclude compliance.
(iii) A statement about compliance concerns.
(3) If so, determine whether the Offeror or any person owned or controlled by the Offeror has engaged in any activity that contributed to or is a significant factor in the determination in the report that one or more of these foreign countries is in violation of its obligations undertaken in an arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament agreement to which the United States is a party, or is not adhering to its arms control, nonproliferation, or disarmament commitments in which the United States is a participating state . Review the narrative for any such findings reflecting a determination of violation or non-adherence related to those foreign countries in the report, including the finding itself, and to the extent necessary, the conduct giving rise to the compliance or adherence concerns, the analysis of compliance or adherence concerns, and efforts to resolve compliance or adherence concerns.
(4) The Offeror may submit any questions with regard to this report by email to NDAA1290Cert@state.gov. To the extent feasible, the Department of State will respond to such email inquiries within 3 business days.
(d) Do not submit an offer unless—
(1) A certification is provided in paragraph (b)(1) of this provision and submitted with the offer ; or
(2) In accordance with paragraph (b)(2) of this provision, the Offeror provides with its offer information that the President of the United States has
(i) Waived application under 22 U.S.C. 2593e(d) or (e); or
(ii) Determined under 22 U.S.C. 2593e(g)(2) that the entity has ceased all activities for which measures were imposed under 22 U.S.C. 2593e(b).
(e) Remedies. The certification in paragraph (b)(1) of this provision is a material representation of fact upon which reliance was placed when making award. If it is later determined that the Offeror knowingly submitted a false certification, in addition to other remedies available to the Government, such as suspension or debarment , the Contracting Officer may terminate any contract resulting from the false certification.
(End of provision) *Proposal Submission Instructions, Evaluation of Offerors This solicitation will proceed in two phases. Phase 1 will request only technical qualifications. Later, after 35% design documents are available, phase 2 will invite price proposals and details regarding small business participation. This phasing is being done solely to accommodate the design schedule and allow ample time to evaluate proposals; there will not be a phase 1 down-select. Details follow.
In phase 1, we will evaluate offerors’ qualifications to perform the required scope. Offerors must identify key subcontractors with their proposals and must use those subcontractors throughout the project. All evaluation criteria below are inclusive of subcontractors (i.e., when we speak of experience, we mean experience of the prime and experience of all key subcontractors.)
· The prime contractor must be a currently licensed California class A general engineering contractor or currently licensed class B general building contractor and identified key subcontractors must be currently licensed California class C specialty trade contractors in their respective trades. Additionally, the prime contractor must commit to using class C specialty trade contractors who are licensed at the time they work on the project; this refers to non-key subcontractors who may not be identified during the source selection process. This is a pass/fail criterion.
· Experience, particularly:
· Prime contractor experience with the CMGC project delivery method;
· Experience in adaptive reuse of old or historical buildings for modern office use;
· Experience in remediation of hazardous materials, particularly asbestos and lead;
· Experience in conducting renovations in occupied space (the first floor will be renovated while the second floor is occupied);
· Experience in federal construction projects;
· Experience in the local market;
· Experience at NASA Ames/Moffett Field; and
· Experience of proposed team members working together previously.
· Past Performance
· Offerors are encouraged to submit references; and
· We will be utilizing the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) and reserve the right to use any other source of past performance information available.
· Project and Information Management Plan
· This is a narrative description of offerors’ project and information management framework for a project of this scope and size. We are also interested in which, if any, professional construction contracting management software will be utilized (e.g. Procore, Trimble ProjectSight).
· Each of the above factors, except for licensing in the first bullet, which is pass fail, will be rated on an adjectival scale of: outstanding, good, satisfactory, marginal, unsatisfactory.
The factors above are in generally declining order of importance and will be combined into an overall non-price rating on the same adjectival scale. There is no prescribed format for the phase 1 submission; however, failure to include relevant information will result in a lower rating. Limit 40 pages.
In phase 2, we will solicit price proposals from all offerors who have submitted phase 1 proposals. If you do not submit a phase 1 proposal before the indicated due date/time, you may not submit a phase 2 proposal. This is expected to occur when the design has reached the 35% milestone and may occur before we have completed our evaluation of phase 1 proposals. The price proposal will have two components: a firm-fixed price for design-phase services, and a not-to-exceed (NTE) price for the optional construction phase. See SOW section 4.3 and clause USGS1 for more information on the construction phase option NTE, final proposal to construct, shared savings incentive, and organizational conflict of interest protection. Additionally, we will introduce the small business subcontracting factor in phase 2, as follows:
· Small Business Subcontracting
· This is an unrestricted acquisition. The USGS’ small business subcontracting goal is 43.5%. Offerors must identify their size status and the size status of each proposed key subcontractor, along with the estimated percentage of dollars going to each and the estimated percentage of subcontracting dollars going to small businesses overall. This factor will be rated on the same adjectival scale as the phase 1 factors, but because offerors are competing for the same subcontractors in the same labor market, proposed small business subcontracting percentages will be compared across all other offerors, thus adjectival ratings will be relative.
· Note the small business subcontracting plan requirements at 52.219-9. The overall percentage goal will be incorporated into any contract resulting from this solicitation along with a draft subcontracting plan. A final subcontracting plan will be negotiated as part of the final proposal to construction/exercise of option to construct process.
We will award a contract to the offeror judged to represent the best value overall, price and other factors considered, where factors other than price (combined) are significantly more important than price within the available budget.

USGS 1 – Option to Construct, Shared Savings Incentive, and Organizational Conflict of Interest Protection
(a) This contract consists of design phase services at a firm-fixed price and an optional construction phase at a not-to-exceed (ceiling) price. The USGS may require the contractor to perform the optional construction phase at or below the ceiling price. The Contracting Officer may exercise this option by written notice to the Contractor within ninety (90) days of the delivery of the final proposal to construct as described in section 4.3.1 of the SOW.
(b) Shared Savings Incentive. If the final proposal to construct is less than the ceiling price, the USGS may exercise the option at the lesser amount and the USGS and the Contractor will share in any savings 50/50. If the option is exercised, the Contractor’s share of savings will be included in the contract as a separate line item payable upon contract completion.
(c) The construction option cannot be exercised above the ceiling price. If the final proposal to construct exceeds the ceiling price, the option may be exercised at the ceiling price only by mutual agreement of the parties.
(d) Organizational Conflict of Interest Protection. If the final proposal to construct exceeds the ceiling price and the parties cannot mutually agree to exercise the option at the ceiling price, and the USGS subsequently issues a competitive solicitation within two (2) years of the completion of the design-phase services, the Contractor is excluded from submitting a proposal in response to said solicitation and is not eligible for award. Further, the Contractor may not participate at any level (consultant, partner, joint venture, subcontractor, etc.) in any other prospective contractor’s proposal.
(End of Clause)
USGS 2 – Substantial Completion
(a) Definitions, General
(1) “Substantially complete” means that the Contractor has completed work and related contract obligations in accordance with the contract documents, such that the Government may enjoy the intended access, occupancy, possession, and use of the entire work without impairment due to incomplete or deficient work, and without interference from the Contractor’s completion of remaining work or correction of deficiencies in completed work.
(2) “Entire work” means the unit of physical space intended for occupancy in a single phase.
(3) In no event shall the work be deemed “substantially complete” if all fire and life safety systems are not tested and accepted by the authority having jurisdiction.
(4) Unless otherwise specifically noted, or otherwise clear from context, all references in the contract to “acceptance” shall refer to issuance of a written determination of substantial completion by the Contracting Officer.
(b) Notice of Substantial Completion
(1) The Contractor must submit to the Contracting Officer an initial proposed substantial completion date at least ninety (90) days in advance thereof. This will trigger the pre-substantial-completion inspection at SOW 5.6.3.
(2) The contractor must submit to the Contracting Officer a revised proposed substantial completion date, if necessary, at least thirty (30) days in advance thereof. This will trigger the substantial completion inspection at SOW 5.6.4.
(3) If the Contracting Officer takes exception to a proposed substantial completion date, the Contracting Officer will notify the Contractor in writing as to the conditions that preclude determination of substantial completion. The Contractor will be entitled to additional time to address such conditions only if the Contracting Officer provides notice of such conditions more than thirty (30) days after receiving the proposed substantial completion date.
(c) Acceptance of Substantial Completion
(1) The Contracting Officer will conduct inspections and decide whether the project is substantially complete within a reasonable time. The decision will be documented in writing with a specific date.

(End of Clause) USGS 8 -- Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System
1) FAR 42.1502 directs all Federal agencies to collect past performance information on contracts. The Department of the Interior (DOI) has implemented the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) to comply with this regulation. One or more past performance evaluations will be conducted in order to record your contract performance as required by FAR 42.15.
2) The past performance evaluation process is a totally paperless process using CPARS. CPARS is a web-based system that allows for electronic processing of the performance evaluation report. Once the report is processed, it is available in the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) for Government use in evaluating past performance as part of a source selection action.
3) We request that you furnish the Contracting Officer (CO) with the name, position title, phone number, and email address for each person designated to have access to your firm's past performance evaluation(s) for the contract no later than 30 days after award. Each person granted access will have the ability to provide comments in the Contractor portion of the report and state whether or not the Contractor agrees with the evaluation, before returning the report to the Assessing Official (AO). Information in the report must be protected as source selection sensitive information not releasable to the public.
4) When your Contractor Representative(s) are registered in CPARS, they will receive an automatically generated email with detailed login instructions. Further details, systems requirements, and training information for CPARS is available at https://www.cpars.gov/.
5) Within 60 days after the end of a performance period, the AO will complete an interim or final past performance evaluation, and the report will be accessible at https://www.cpars.gov/.
a) Contractor Representatives may then provide comments in response to the evaluation, or return the evaluation without comment.
b) Your comments should focus on objective facts in the AO's narrative and should provide your views on the causes and ramifications of the assessed performance.
c) All information provided should be reviewed for accuracy prior to submission.
d) If you elect not to provide comments, please acknowledge receipt of the evaluation by indicating "No comment" in the space provided, and then selecting “Accept the Ratings and Close the Evaluation”.
e) Your response is due within 60 calendar days after receipt of the CPAR. On day 15, the evaluation will become available in PPIRS-RC marked as “Pending” with or without comments and whether or not it has been closed.
f) If you do not sign and submit the CPAR within 60 days, it will automatically be returned to the Government and will be annotated: "The report was delivered/received by the contractor on (date). The contractor neither signed nor offered comment in response to this assessment."
6) The following guidelines apply concerning your use of the past performance evaluation:
a) Protect the evaluation as source selection information. After review, transmit the evaluation by completing and submitting the form through CPARS. If for some reason you are unable to view and/or submit the form through CPARS, contact the CO for instructions.
b) Strictly control access to the evaluation within your organization. Ensure the evaluation is never released to persons or entities outside of your control.
c) Prohibit the use of or reference to evaluation data for advertising, promotional material, pre-award surveys, responsibility determinations, production readiness reviews, or other similar purposes.
7) If you wish to discuss a past performance evaluation, you should request a meeting in writing to the CO no later than seven days following your receipt of the evaluation. The meeting will be held in person or via telephone or other means during your 60-day review period.
8) A copy of the completed past performance evaluation will be available in CPARS for your viewing and for Government use supporting source selection actions after it has been finalized.
