PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

Custom Sampling Station Development, Manufacturing, and Processing Support for the Submarine Atmosphere Health Assessment Program

1. Scope of Work

The Naval Submarine Medical Research Laboratory (NSMRL) continues to research the health effects of exposure to the enclosed submarine atmosphere through the Submarine Atmosphere Health Assessment Program (SAHAP).

SAHAP deploys passive chemical dosimeters (sampling stations) on board operating US Navy submarines to determine concentrations of various compounds in the atmosphere. These found concentrations are then compared to established Navy 90-day limits. NSMRL requires contracted laboratory support to develop, manufacture, and process the custom passive chemical dosimeters – hereby referred to as Sampling Stations – that are required to sample the atmosphere in the dynamic submarine environment, on an as-needed basis.

2. Definitions and Terms Analyte – A substance or chemical compound that is of interest in an analytical procedure.

Sampling Media – A material designed to absorb specific Analytes from the atmosphere to measure its concentration and therefore exposure over time.

Sampling Disk Filters – A filter attached to each Air Sampling Disk, made from different materials that determine the exposure rate of the Sampling Media below it.

Air Sampling Disk – A plastic disk containing Sampling Media, a filter designed to generate different exposure rates, and a plastic cap attached with a hinge.

Sampling Station – A grouping of Air Sampling Disks, attached together, which can be hung in a single location to measure exposure to multiple Analytes in the atmosphere over a predetermined period of time.

3. Support Requirements The contracted laboratory shall develop, manufacture, and deliver Sampling Stations according to the specifications below, as required and ordered by NSMRL.

The contracted laboratory shall process and deliver data reports on all Sampling Stations once returned by NSMRL after exposure.

3.1. Manufacturing and Delivery Requirements

NSMRL will order up to 1200 Sampling Stations from the contractor per year. The quantity and type of sampling stations in each order may vary. 5-day and 28-day exposure rates are required.

NSMRL will select single badges of two different sizes, or groups of four (4), five (5), or six (6) Air Sampling Disks and Sampling Disk Filters, based on project data requirements, within each order. Air Sampling Disks will be chosen from the options/list provided in section 3.1.3. Orders will specify Sampling Disk Filter types, appropriate for either 8-hours or a 5-day or 28-day exposure time. Sampling Station and individual Sampling Disk labels will also be specified with each order.

Custom Sampling Stations ordered by the government shall be manufactured and delivered at the expense of the contractor within three (3) weeks of the order date. Shipping charges shall be integrated into the total unit cost of the sampling stations.

3.1.1. Sampling Badges and Sampling Stations

Sampling Badges shall consist of a single circular button having nominal dimensions of 1” diameter. Sampling Stations shall consist of either four (4), five (5), or six (6) independent Air Sampling Disks integrated into a single rectangular plastic assembly having nominal dimensions of 3” x 4.5” x 0.5”. Sampling Badges and Sampling Stations shall both incorporate one or more perforations (holes) to secure the Sampling Station to a submarine bulkhead, or similar fixture. Sampling Stations consisting of only four (4) or five (5) Air Sampling Disks shall be manufactured in the same six- disk form factor discussed above, with one or two Air Sampling Disk blank/empty.

Sampling Badges and Sampling Stations shall be constructed of rugged, flexible plastic (e.g. polyolefin or fluorinated polyolefin) that is non-reactive with the Sampling Media to be used in the Air Sampling Disks and applicable Analytes. Sampling Stations, when complete, shall be packaged in a flexible, hermetically-sealed, metal foil pouch (nominal 8” x 5”) that is impermeable to contaminants. A second manually-closeable, metal foil pouch (nominal 9”x 5.5”) shall be provided for return shipment of the Sampling Station to the contractor laboratory for processing.

3.1.2. Sampling Badges and Independent Air Sampling Disks within Sampling Stations Each Sampling Badge and each independent Air Sampling Disk within the Sampling Stations shall be constructed of the same non- reactive plastic as the Sampling Station, and shall incorporate a sequential component stack consisting of:

(a) a non-reactive support material; (b) Sampling Media; (c) Sampling Filter; (d) a hinged plastic cap attached to each Air Sampling Disk. Two types of Sampling Filters shall be provided to generate two different exposure periods: a plastic cover consisting of a grid of holes to generate a 28-day exposure period, and a semi-permeable membrane filter to generate a 5-day exposure period. Individual labels for individual Air Sampling Disks and Sampling Stations will also be specified with each order.

CAP

CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION PLAN (CAP)

FOR FIXED PRICE CONTRACTS

In order to expedite the administration of this contract, the following delineation of duties is provided. The names, addresses and phone numbers for these offices or individuals are included elsewhere in the contract award document. The office or individual designated as having responsibility should be contacted for any questions, clarifications, or information regarding the administration function assigned.

1. The Procuring Contract Office (PCO) is responsible for:

a. All pre-award duties such as solicitation, negotiation and award of contracts.

b. Any information or questions during the pre-award stage of the procurement.

c. Freedom of Information inquiries.

d. Changes in contract terms and/or conditions.

e. Post award conference.

2. The Contract Administration Office (CAO) is responsible for matters specified in the FAR 42.302 and DFARS

42.302 except those areas otherwise designated as the responsibility of the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) or someone else herein.

3. The paying office is responsible for making payment of proper invoices after acceptance is documented.

4. The Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) is responsible for interface with the contractor and performance of duties such as those set forth below. It is emphasized that only the PCO/CAO has the authority to modify the terms of the contract. In no event will any understanding, agreement, modification, change order, or other matter deviating from the terms of the basic contract between the contractor and any other person be effective or binding on the Government. If in the opinion of the contractor an effort outside the scope of the contract is requested, the contractor shall promptly notify the PCO in writing. No action may be taken by the contractor unless the PCO or CAO has issued a contractual change. The COR duties are as follows:

a. Technical Interface

(1) The COR is responsible for all Government technical interface concerning the contractor and furnishing technical instructions to the contractor. These instructions may include: technical advice/recommendations/clarifications of specific details relating to technical aspects of contract requirements;

milestones to be met within the general terms of the contract or specific subtasks of the contract; or, any other interface of a technical nature necessary for the contractor to perform the work specified in the contract. The COR is the point of contact through whom the contractor can relay questions and problems of a technical nature to the

PCO.

(1) The COR shall monitor the contractor's performance and progress under the contract. In performing contract surveillance duties, the COR should exercise extreme care to ensure that he/she does not cross the line of personal services. The COR must be able to distinguish between surveillance (which is proper and necessary) and supervision (which is not permitted). Surveillance becomes supervision when you go beyond enforcing the terms of the contract. If the contractor is directed to perform the contract services in a specific manner, the line is being crossed. In such a situation, the COR's actions would be equivalent to using the contractor's personnel as if they were government employees and would constitute transforming the contract into one for personal services.

(2) The COR shall monitor contractor performance to see that inefficient or wasteful methods are not being used. If such practices are observed, the COR is responsible for taking reasonable and timely action to alert the contractor and the PCO to the situation.

(3) The COR will take timely action to alert the PCO to any potential performance problems. If performance schedule slippage is detected, the COR should determine the factors causing the delay and report them to the PCO, along with the contractor's proposed actions to eliminate or overcome these factors and recover the slippage. Once a recovery plan has been put in place, the COR is responsible for monitoring the recovery and keeping the PCO advised of progress.

(4) If the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) is applicable to the contract you are responsible for completing a Contractor Performance Assessment Report (CPAR) in the CPARS Automated Information System (AIS). The initial CPAR, under an eligible contract, must reflect evaluation of at least 180 days of contractor performance. The completed CPAR, including contractor comments if any, (NOTE: contractors are allowed 30 days to input their comments) should be available in the CPARS AIS for reviewing official (PCO) review no later than 270 days after start of contract performance. Subsequent CPARs covering any contract option periods should be ready at 1-year intervals thereafter.

c. Invoice Review and Approval/Inspection and Acceptance

(1) The COR is responsible for quality assurance of services performed and acceptance of the services or deliverables. The COR shall expeditiously review copies of the contractor's invoices or vouchers, certificate of performance and all other supporting documentation to determine the reasonableness of the billing. In making this determination, the COR must take into consideration all documentary information available and any information developed from personal observations.

(2) The COR must indicate either complete or partial concurrence with the contractor's invoice/voucher by executing the applicable certificate of performance furnished by the contractor. The COR must be cognizant of the invoicing procedures and prompt payment due dates detailed elsewhere in the contract.

(3) The COR will provide the PCO and the CAO with copies of acceptance documents such as Certificates of Performance.

(4) The COR shall work with the Contractor to obtain and execute a final invoice no more than 60 days after completion of contract performance. The COR shall ensure that the invoice is clearly marked as a “Final Invoice.”

d. Contract Modifications. The COR is responsible for developing the statement of work for change orders or modifications and for preparing an independent government cost estimate of the effort described in the proposed statement of work.

e. Administrative Duties

(1) The COR shall take appropriate action on technical correspondence pertaining to the contract and for maintaining files on each contract.

(2) The COR shall maintain files on all correspondence relating to contractor performance, whether satisfactory or unsatisfactory, and on trip reports for all government personnel visiting the contractor's place of business for the purpose of discussing the contract.

(3) The COR must take prompt action to provide the PCO with any contractor or technical code request for change, deviation or waiver, along with any supporting analysis or other required documentation.

f. Government Furnished Property. When government property is to be furnished to the contractor, the COR will take the necessary steps to insure that it is furnished in a timely fashion and in proper condition for use.

The COR will maintain adequate records to ensure that property furnished is returned and/or that material has been consumed in the performance of work.

Enclosure (1)

g. Security. The COR is responsible for ensuring that any applicable security requirements are strictly adhered to.

h. Standards of Conduct. The COR is responsible for reading and complying with all applicable agency standards of conduct and conflict of interest instructions.

i. Written Report/Contract Completion Statement.

(1) The COR is responsible for timely preparation and submission to the PCO, of a written, annual evaluation of the contractors performance. The report shall be submitted within 30 days prior to the exercise of any contract option and 60 days after contract completion. The report shall include a written statement that services were received in accordance with the Contract terms and that the contract is now available for close-out. The report shall also include a statement as to the use made of any deliverables furnished by the contractor.

(2) If the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) is applicable to the contract you are responsible for completing a final Contractor Performance Assessment Report (CPAR) in the CPARS with 30 days of contract completion.

(3) The COR is responsible for providing necessary assistance to the Contracting Officer in performing Contract Close-out in accordance with FAR 4.804, Closeout of Contract Files.
