4.2.1 For execution of this contract, the contractor’s personnel will be assisting PNS personnel executing work in confined spaces. Since PNS will already be performing competent person/gas‐free services for the workspaces, PNS is willing to extend its competent persons’ services and make them available to the contractor’s employees rather than have the contractor perform duplicate monitoring. The framework for the Navy/PNS providing competent personnel/gas‐free services is provided in NAVSEA S6470‐AA‐SAF‐010, Paragraph 2‐ 8 (Contractor Operations). The offeror shall identify in their bid proposal if they plan to utilize Navy provided competent personnel/gas‐free services.

PNS will provide a copy of its confined/enclosed space entry program to the contractor, and the contractor will be required to make their employees familiar with the PNS program prior to assigning them to PNS. Some examples of responsibilities assumed by the contractor in accordance with NAVSEA S6470‐AA‐SAF‐010 are:

4.2.2.1 Ensure the Navy competent person is on a list provided by PNS.

4.2.2.2 Ensure all its employees who may enter confined spaces are trained to entry procedures in accordance with 29 CFR 1915.12(d) and the PNS confined/enclosed space program. The contractor shall maintain the training records at least 3 months beyond the completion date of the contract.

4.2.2.3 Ensure all contractor employees comply with confined space entry procedures.

4.2.3 If the contractor opts not to use Navy‐provided competent person/gas‐free services they then must provide their own competent person/gas‐free services in accordance with Occupational Safety and Health Manual VOL 2 Part I Chapter 1, NAVSEA S6470‐AA‐SAF‐ 010, and 29 CFR 1915 – Subpart B. The pricing for these contractor services shall be included in the contractor’s proposal.

4.3 Once contractor personnel are assigned, it is expected that change‐out of personnel will not occur without prior notification.

4.4 The contractor’s supervisor(s) is/are the liaison between contractor personnel and PNS Supervisors. The contractor’s supervisor will manage worker assignments to ships, shifts of work, discipline, safety, rewards, promotion, attendance, time‐off (i.e. sick and/or annual leave) and work performance. The contractor shall provide adequate supervision to oversee the assigned personnel and ensure the proper execution of the typical tasks described herein. PNS shall be responsible to provide all project management, quality assurance and engineering support that may be required in the assigned tasking. Additionally Contractor Management shall

4.4.1 Provide overall management, oversight and supervision (and/or lead workers) to effectively and safely manage the work of this order.

4.5 In the event of injuries sustained in the performance of duty, contractor employees may receive medical aid from shipyard first responders but shall, if necessary, receive secondary aid and/or evaluation from private providers. PNS Managers and the PNS Code 900R POC must be immediately (i.e. within 2 hours) informed of any injuries or near misses that occur by contractor management. A written report describing the incident must be provided within 24 hours of occurrence to Code 106, Code 900R, and the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR). The contractor shall comply with any safety investigations. Injury reporting shall be in compliance with OSHA 29 CFR Part 1904 “Recording and Reporting Occupational Injuries and Illnesses”.

4.6 The contractor’s employees shall provide their own personal hand tools and any other work apparel typically provided by their employer (e.g. coveralls, tyvek suits, and leather palmed gloves).

4.7 The contractor’s personnel shall provide their own personal protection equipment (e.g.

safety shoes, helmets and eye protection).

4.8 The Contractor shall designate a representative to attend weekly status meetings with PNS Code 900R to discuss contract execution and performance.

4.8.1 The contractor shall prepare weekly status updates for review at these meetings, and submit them electronically to PNS Code 900R, Code 970R and the COR.
