CLAUSES INCORPORATED BY FULL TEXT

52.204-20 Predecessor of Offeror (JUL 2016)

(a) Definitions. As used in this provision--

Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) code means--

(1) An identifier assigned to entities located in the United States or its outlying areas by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) Branch to identify a commercial or government entity;

or

(2) An identifier assigned by a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) or by the NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA) to entities located outside the United States and its outlying areas that the DLA Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) Branch records and maintains in the CAGE master file. This type of code is known as a NATO CAGE (NCAGE) code.

Predecessor means an entity that is replaced by a successor and includes any predecessors of the predecessor.

Successor means an entity that has replaced a predecessor by acquiring the assets and carrying out the affairs of the predecessor under a new name (often through acquisition or merger). The term “successor” does not include new offices/divisions of the same company or a company that only changes its name. The extent of the responsibility of the successor for the liabilities of the predecessor may vary, depending on State law and specific circumstances.

(b) The Offeror represents that it [____] is or [____] is not a successor to a predecessor that held a Federal contract or grant within the last three years.

(c) If the Offeror has indicated “is” in paragraph (b) of this provision, enter the following information for all predecessors that held a Federal contract or grant within the last three years (if more than one predecessor, list in reverse chronological order):

Predecessor CAGE code: ____ (or mark “Unknown”).

Predecessor legal name: ____.

(Do not use a “doing business as” name).

(End of provision)

52.204-21 BASIC SAFEGUARDING OF COVERED CONTRACTOR INFORMATION SYSTEMS (JUN 2016)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause--

Covered contractor information system means an information system that is owned or operated by a contractor that processes, stores, or transmits Federal contract information.

Federal contract information means information, not intended for public release, that is provided by or generated for the Government under a contract to develop or deliver a product or service to the Government, but not including information provided by the Government to the public (such as on public Web sites) or simple transactional information, such as necessary to process payments.

Information means any communication or representation of knowledge such as facts, data, or opinions, in any medium or form, including textual, numerical, graphic, cartographic, narrative, or audiovisual (Committee on National Security Systems Instruction (CNSSI) 4009).

Information system means a discrete set of information resources organized for the collection, processing, maintenance, use, sharing, dissemination, or disposition of information (44 U.S.C. 3502).

Safeguarding means measures or controls that are prescribed to protect information systems.

(b) Safeguarding requirements and procedures.

(1) The Contractor shall apply the following basic safeguarding requirements and procedures to protect covered contractor information systems. Requirements and procedures for basic safeguarding of covered contractor information systems shall include, at a minimum, the following security controls:

(i) Limit information system access to authorized users, processes acting on behalf of authorized users, or devices (including other information systems).

(ii) Limit information system access to the types of transactions and functions that authorized users are permitted to execute.

(iii) Verify and control/limit connections to and use of external information systems.

(iv) Control information posted or processed on publicly accessible information systems.

(v) Identify information system users, processes acting on behalf of users, or devices.

(vi) Authenticate (or verify) the identities of those users, processes, or devices, as a prerequisite to allowing access to organizational information systems.

(vii) Sanitize or destroy information system media containing Federal Contract Information before disposal or release for reuse.

(viii) Limit physical access to organizational information systems, equipment, and the respective operating environments to authorized individuals.

(ix) Escort visitors and monitor visitor activity; maintain audit logs of physical access; and control and manage physical access devices.

(x) Monitor, control, and protect organizational communications (i.e., information transmitted or received by organizational information systems) at the external boundaries and key internal boundaries of the information systems.

(xi) Implement subnetworks for publicly accessible system components that are physically or logically separated from internal networks.

(xii) Identify, report, and correct information and information system flaws in a timely manner.

(xiii) Provide protection from malicious code at appropriate locations within organizational information systems.

(xiv) Update malicious code protection mechanisms when new releases are available.

(xv) Perform periodic scans of the information system and real-time scans of files from external sources as files are downloaded, opened, or executed.

(2) Other requirements. This clause does not relieve the Contractor of any other specific safeguarding requirements specified by Federal agencies and departments relating to covered contractor information systems generally or other Federal safeguarding requirements for controlled unclassified information (CUI) as established by Executive Order 13556.

(c) Subcontracts. The Contractor shall include the substance of this clause, including this paragraph (c), in subcontracts under this contract (including subcontracts for the acquisition of commercial items, other than commercially available off-the-shelf items), in which the subcontractor may have Federal contract information residing in or transiting through its information system.

(End of clause)

52.209-5 CERTIFICATION REGARDING RESPONSIBILITY MATTERS (OCT 2015)

(a)(1) The Offeror certifies, to the best of its knowledge and belief, that-

(i) The Offeror and/or any of its Principals-

(A) Are ( ) are not ( ) presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, or declared ineligible for the award of contracts by any Federal agency;

(B) Have ( ) have not ( ), within a three-year period preceding this offer, been convicted of or had a civil judgment rendered against them for: commission of fraud or a criminal offense in connection with obtaining, attempting to obtain, or performing a public (Federal, State, or local) contract or subcontract; violation of Federal or State antitrust statutes relating to the submission of offers; or commission of embezzlement, theft, forgery, bribery, falsification or destruction of records, making false statements, tax evasion, violating Federal criminal tax laws, or receiving stolen property (if offeror checks “have”, the offeror shall also see 52.209-7, if included in this solicitation); and

(C) Are ( ) are not ( ) presently indicted for, or otherwise criminally or civilly charged by a governmental entity with, commission of any of the offenses enumerated in paragraph (a)(1)(i)(B) of this provision.;

and

(D) Have , have not , within a three-year period preceding this offer, been notified of any delinquent Federal taxes in an amount that exceeds $3,500 for which the liability remains unsatisfied.

(1) Federal taxes are considered delinquent if both of the following criteria apply:

(i) The tax liability is finally determined. The liability is finally determined if it has been assessed. A liability is not finally determined if there is a pending administrative or judicial challenge. In the case of a judicial challenge to the liability, the liability is not finally determined until all judicial appeal rights have been exhausted.

(ii) The taxpayer is delinquent in making payment. A taxpayer is delinquent if the taxpayer has failed to pay the tax liability when full payment was due and required. A taxpayer is not delinquent in cases where enforced collection action is precluded.

(2) Examples. (i) The taxpayer has received a statutory notice of deficiency, under I.R.C. Sec. 6212, which entitles the taxpayer to seek Tax Court review of a proposed tax deficiency. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek Tax Court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights.

(ii) The IRS has filed a notice of Federal tax lien with respect to an assessed tax liability, and the taxpayer has been issued a notice under I.R.C. Sec. 6320 entitling the taxpayer to request a hearing with the IRS Office of Appeals contesting the lien filing, and to further appeal to the Tax Court if the IRS determines to sustain the lien filing. In the course of the hearing, the taxpayer is entitled to contest the underlying tax liability because the taxpayer has had no prior opportunity to contest the liability. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek tax court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights.

(iii) The taxpayer has entered into an installment agreement pursuant to I.R.C. Sec. 6159. The taxpayer is making timely payments and is in full compliance with the agreement terms. The taxpayer is not delinquent because the taxpayer is not currently required to make full payment.

(iv) The taxpayer has filed for bankruptcy protection. The taxpayer is not delinquent because enforced collection action is stayed under 11 U.S.C. 362 (the Bankruptcy Code).

(ii) The Offeror has ( ) has not ( ), within a three-year period preceding this offer, had one or more contracts terminated for default by any Federal agency.

(2) Principal, for the purposes of this certification, means an officer, director, owner, partner, or a person having primary management or supervisory responsibilities within a business entity (e.g., general manager; plant manager;

head of a division or business segment; and similar positions).

(b) The Offeror shall provide immediate written notice to the Contracting Officer if, at any time prior to contract award, the Offeror learns that its certification was erroneous when submitted or has become erroneous by reason of changed circumstances.

(c) A certification that any of the items in paragraph (a) of this provision exists will not necessarily result in withholding of an award under this solicitation. However, the certification will be considered in connection with a determination of the Offeror's responsibility. Failure of the Offeror to furnish a certification or provide such additional information as requested by the Contracting Officer may render the Offeror nonresponsible.

(d) Nothing contained in the foregoing shall be construed to require establishment of a system of records in order to render, in good faith, the certification required by paragraph (a) of this provision. The knowledge and information of an Offeror is not required to exceed that which is normally possessed by a prudent person in the ordinary course of business dealings.

(e) The certification in paragraph (a) 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 rendered an erroneous certification, in addition to other remedies available to the Government, the Contracting Officer may terminate the contract resulting from this solicitation for default.

52.209-11 REPRESENTATION BY CORPORATIONS REGARDING DELINQUENT TAX LIABILITY OR A

FELONY CONVICTION UNDER ANY FEDERAL LAW (FEB 2016)

(a) As required by sections 744 and 745 of Division E of the Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act, 2015 (Pub. L. 113-235), and similar provisions, if contained in subsequent appropriations acts, the Government will not enter into a contract with any corporation that--

(1) Has any unpaid Federal tax liability that has been assessed, for which all judicial and administrative remedies have been exhausted or have lapsed, and that is not being paid in a timely manner pursuant to an agreement with the authority responsible for collecting the tax liability, where the awarding agency is aware of the unpaid tax liability, unless an agency has considered suspension or debarment of the corporation and made a determination that suspension or debarment is not necessary to protect the interests of the Government; or

(2) Was convicted of a felony criminal violation under any Federal law within the preceding 24 months, where the awarding agency is aware of the conviction, unless an agency has considered suspension or debarment of the corporation and made a determination that this action is not necessary to protect the interests of the Government.

(b) The Offeror represents that--

(1) It is [ ] is not [ ] a corporation that has any unpaid Federal tax liability that has been assessed, for which all judicial and administrative remedies have been exhausted or have lapsed, and that is not being paid in a timely manner pursuant to an agreement with the authority responsible for collecting the tax liability; and

(2) It is [ ] is not [ ] a corporation that was convicted of a felony criminal violation under a Federal law within the preceding 24 months.

52.212-1 INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT 2018)

(a) North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code and small business size standard. The NAICS code and small business size standard for this acquisition appear in Block 10 of the solicitation cover sheet (SF 1449). However, the small business size standard for a concern which submits an offer in its own name, but which proposes to furnish an item which it did not itself manufacture, is 500 employees.

(b) Submission of offers. Submit signed and dated offers to the office specified in this solicitation at or before the exact time specified in this solicitation. Offers may be submitted on the SF 1449, letterhead stationery, or as otherwise specified in the solicitation. As a minimum, offers must show--

(1) The solicitation number;

(2) The time specified in the solicitation for receipt of offers;

(3) The name, address, and telephone number of the offeror;

(4) A technical description of the items being offered in sufficient detail to evaluate compliance with the requirements in the solicitation. This may include product literature, or other documents, if necessary;

(5) Terms of any express warranty;

(6) Price and any discount terms;

(7) "Remit to" address, if different than mailing address;

(8) A completed copy of the representations and certifications at FAR 52.212-3 (see FAR 52.212-3(b) for those representations and certifications that the offeror shall complete electronically);

(9) Acknowledgment of Solicitation Amendments;

(10) Past performance information, when included as an evaluation factor, to include recent and relevant contracts for the same or similar items and other references (including contract numbers, points of contact with telephone numbers and other relevant information); and

(11) If the offer is not submitted on the SF 1449, include a statement specifying the extent of agreement with all terms, conditions, and provisions included in the solicitation. Offers that fail to furnish required representations or information, or reject the terms and conditions of the solicitation may be excluded from consideration.

(c) Period for acceptance of offers. The offeror agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 30 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of offers, unless another time period is specified in an addendum to the solicitation.

(d) Product samples. When required by the solicitation, product samples shall be submitted at or prior to the time specified for receipt of offers. Unless otherwise specified in this solicitation, these samples shall be submitted at no expense to the Government, and returned at the sender's request and expense, unless they are destroyed during preaward testing.

(e) Multiple offers. Offerors are encouraged to submit multiple offers presenting alternative terms and conditions, including alternative line items (provided that the alternative line items are consistent with subpart 4.10 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation), or alternative commercial items for satisfying the requirements of this solicitation.

Each offer submitted will be evaluated separately.

(f) Late submissions, modifications, revisions, and withdrawals of offers:

(1) Offerors are responsible for submitting offers, and any modifications, revisions, or withdrawals, so as to reach the Government office designated in the solicitation by the time specified in the solicitation. If no time is specified in the solicitation, the time for receipt is 4:30 p.m., local time, for the designated Government office on the date that offers or revisions are due.

(2)(i) Any offer, modification, revision, or withdrawal of an offer received at the Government office designated in the solicitation after the exact time specified for receipt of offers is “late” and will not be considered unless it is received before award is made, the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late offer would not unduly delay the acquisition; and--

(A) If it was transmitted through an electronic commerce method authorized by the solicitation, it was received at the initial point of entry to the Government infrastructure not later than 5:00 p.m. one working day prior to the date specified for receipt of offers; or

(B) There is acceptable evidence to establish that it was received at the Government installation designated for receipt of offers and was under the Government's control prior to the time set for receipt of offers; or

(C) If this solicitation is a request for proposals, it was the only proposal received.

(ii) However, a late modification of an otherwise successful offer, that makes its terms more favorable to the Government, will be considered at any time it is received and may be accepted.

(3) Acceptable evidence to establish the time of receipt at the Government installation includes the time/date stamp of that installation on the offer wrapper, other documentary evidence of receipt maintained by the installation, or oral testimony or statements of Government personnel.

(4) If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal Government processes so that offers cannot be received at the Government office designated for receipt of offers by the exact time specified in the solicitation, and urgent Government requirements preclude amendment of the solicitation or other notice of an extension of the closing date, the time specified for receipt of offers will be deemed to be extended to the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day on which normal Government processes resume.

(5) Offers may be withdrawn by written notice received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of offers.

Oral offers in response to oral solicitations may be withdrawn orally.

52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT 2014)

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

The quotation shall consist of: (1) Technical Acceptability, (2) Past Performance, and (3) Price Information.

Technical Acceptability and Past Performance, when combined, are significantly more important than, price.

Award will be made to the responsible Vendor whose quotation represents the best value after evaluation in accordance with the factors in the solicitation.

Vendors will be required to submit a quotation that will be evaluated in accordance with the specifications and provisions of the solicitation. Vendors are reminded to submit technical description as specified in FAR 52.212- 1(b)(4).

The Government reserves the right to award on initial offers. The Government is not obligated to seek completion or clarification of technical and/or past performance information.

*Note: Vendors receiving a rating of “Unacceptable” for any Non-price factor may not be considered for an award and may not be further evaluated.

Quotations will be evaluated as follows:

1. Technical Acceptability

2. Past Performance

3. Price

(1) TECHNICAL ACCEPTABILITY

Quotations submitted by each vendor will be evaluated in accordance with the specifications provided in the solicitation, FAR 52.212-1 Instruction to Offerors, and Addendum to FAR 52.212-1 and determined to be either acceptable or unacceptable. Failure to include pricing for all line items may be cause for rejection of the quote for all line items.

In accordance with FAR 19.702, the Contracting Officer shall review the apparently successful Vendor’s Small Business Subcontracting Plan. The apparently successful Vendor may negotiate an acceptable Subcontracting Plan with the Contracting Officer prior to award.

Technical Evaluation Ratings Rating Description Acceptable Submission clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable Submission does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

The Vendor must address the specifications in sufficient detail so that the Government can reasonably determine that the Vendor possesses the ability to successfully perform the contract. The Government will not give any favorable consideration, preference, “extra credit,” or other positive evaluation to any matters contained in a section of the vendor’s quote, which could be construed to exceed the minimum requirements in the specifications included in the solicitation.

Offers that simply state they are in compliance, may be considered “Unacceptable.”

If the technical submittal is determined “Unacceptable”, it may render the entire quote technically unacceptable.

Technical submissions that do not meet the minimum requirements will be rated as “Unacceptable” and may no longer be considered for further competition or award.

(2) PAST PERFORMANCE

The evaluation of past performance results is an assessment of the Vendor’s probability of meeting the solicitation requirements. For the Past Performance factor, the rating tables identified in the table in set forth below entitled "Past Performance Relevancy Ratings Table", and "Past Performance Confidence Assessment Ratings Table" will be utilized for the assignment of ratings for relevancy and confidence assessment. Past performance will be evaluated for confidence based on the relevance and quality of the submitted contracts. This assessment is based on the Vendor’s record of relevant and recent past performance information that pertains to the services outlined in the solicitation requirements. Past Performance will be evaluated in accordance with FAR 9.104-6.

In order to facilitate the Government’s evaluation of this factor, the Vendor shall provide information on no more than three (3) previous contracts whose effort was relevant to the effort required by this solicitation; the contracts provided should have been performed within the last five (5) years. Evaluation will focus only on work experience already performed. Yet-to be performed work and experience prior to the last five (5) years will not be considered.

The Government may verify past performance information.

In order to verify past performance information and determine the quality of the past performance submission, the Government may contact some or all of the references provided, as appropriate, and may collect information through questionnaires (i.e. the Past Performance Report Form), telephone interviews and existing data sources to include but not limited to PPIRS, Performance Assessment Reporting Systems (CPARS), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), and other databases or sources outside of the Government. The Vendor acknowledges that the Government is not responsible if the point of contact provided by the Vendor fails to respond to the Government’s past performance inquiry.

Relevancy:

More relevant past performance will typically be a stronger predictor of future success and have more influence on the past performance confidence assessment than past performance of lesser relevance. For the Vendor’s past performance submission(s), the agency will first evaluate the Vendor’s past performance to determine how relevant a recent effort accomplished by the Vendor is to the effort to be acquired. In establishing what is relevant for this acquisition, consideration has been given to those aspects of a Vendor’s contract history that give the greatest ability to measure whether the Vendor will satisfy the current procurement. Evaluation aspects of relevancy will include similarity of scope and magnitude which are defined below.

ꞏ Scope: The measure of the similarity of the scope and complexity of the Performance Work Statement

(PWS) and the Vendor’s contracts. The Performance Work Statement scope meets the majority of the objectives as defined in the solicitation.

ꞏ Magnitude: The measure of the similarity of the dollar value of actually performed work that exists between the PWS and the Vendor’s contracts/orders. Magnitude will be evaluated on the dollar amount of work actually performed under the contract(s)/order(s) during the relevant five-year period established by the solicitation.

Past Performance Relevancy Ratings

Very Relevant Present/past performance effort involved essentially the same scope and magnitude of effort this solicitation requires.

Relevant Present/past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort this solicitation requires.

Somewhat Relevant

Present/past performance effort involved some of the scope and magnitude of effort this solicitation requires.

Not Relevant Present/past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of effort this solicitation requires.

For past performance submissions determined to be relevant or somewhat relevant, the Government will then evaluate the quality of those submissions by reviewing all available, current information on the contractor’s performance. Submissions determined to be ‘Not Relevant’ will automatically receive a neutral rating.

The aggregated total sum of each Vendor’s Past Performance references in terms of scope and magnitude will result in the assessed overall relevance of that Vendor’s individual past performance reference. Quotations lacking relevant past performance history will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance.

However, the quotation of a Vendor with no relevant past performance history, while not rated favorably or unfavorably for past performance, may not represent the most advantageous quote to the Government. In this instance, the Vendor will receive a rating of "Neutral" in the past performance factor.

Confidence Assessment:

The Past Performance Confidence Assessment is an evaluation of the likelihood (or Government’s confidence) that the Vendor will successfully perform the solicitation’s requirements.

Past Performance Confidence Assessments

Substantial Confidence

Based on the Vendor’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the Vendor will successfully perform the required effort.

Satisfactory Confidence

Based on the Vendor’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the Vendor will successfully perform the required effort.

Limited Confidence

Based on the Vendor’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a low expectation that the Vendor will successfully perform the required effort.

No Confidence Based on the Vendor’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has no expectation that the Vendor will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

Unknown Confidence (Neutral)

No recent/relevant performance record is available or the Vendor’s performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned.

This evaluation is based upon all of the gathered past performance information.

This evaluation and rating is separate and distinct from the Contracting Officer’s responsibility determination.

The assessment of the vendor’s past performance will be used as a means of evaluating the relative capability of the vendor and other competitors to successfully meet the requirements of the RFQ.

(3) PRICE

The vendor shall submit one (1) signed copy of the completed SF 1449, and if applicable, executed copies of Amendments. The prices quoted shall be in accordance with the solicitation, and will be evaluated on the basis of price reasonableness in accordance with FAR 13.106-3. Price Quotes shall be held firm for ninety (90) days.

Vendors shall include pricing for all line items listed. Failure to do this may be cause for rejection of the quote for all line items.

Vendors responding to this solicitation are advised that, prior to award, the government may request vendors to submit additional information/data to support price reasonableness such as copies of paid invoices for the same or similar items, sales history for the same or similar items, price list with effective date and/or copies of catalog pages along with any applicable discounts. Failure to submit the requested information may result in disqualification of the submitted quote.

Selection: The Government intends to evaluate quotations and issue an award using the procedures of FAR Part 13.5, Simplified Procedures for Certain Commercial Items. Upon completion of the above, the Government intends to issue a single award for all items, to the vendor whose quotation, conforming to the solicitation and evaluation criteria, is considered to be most advantageous to the Government. The Government reserves the right to not issue an award if it is not in the best interest of the Government.

The Government reserves the right to award a contract to other than the lowest priced Vendor.

The Government intends to award the contract without discussions. The establishment of a competitive range is not anticipated. Accordingly, each Vendor should submit its most favorable terms from a Price and non-price standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to establish a competitive range and conduct discussions if later determined to be necessary.

(b) Options. The Government will evaluate offers, pursuant to solicitation provision FAR 52.217-5, for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

(c) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise…
