CONTRACTOR FURNISHED ITEMS AND SERVICES

4. CONTRACTOR FURNISHED ITEMS AND RESPONSIBILITIES:

4.1 General: The Contractor shall furnish all supplies, equipment, facilities and services required to perform work under this contract that are not listed under Section 3 of this PWS.

4.2 The Contractor shall comply with the precautions specified in 29 CFR 1910.1001(h)(3) or 29

CFR 1926.58(I)(2), as applicable, and notify their personnel of the associated hazards as shown in paragraph 4.2.1 -

4.2.5.

4.2.1 Asbestos Contaminated Clothing: Asbestos contaminated clothing will be separately bagged and labeled.

Laundering of asbestos contaminated clothing shall be done to prevent the release of airborne asbestos fibers during handling of the asbestos workers’ coveralls. Containers of clothing with asbestos shall be labeled: “DANGER -

CONTAINS ASBESTOS FIBERS - AVOID CREATING DUST CANCER AND LUNG DISEASE HAZARD.”

ASBESTOS HEALTH HAZARD DATA- Asbestos can cause disabling respiratory disease and various types of cancers if the fibers are inhaled. Inhaling or ingesting fibers from contaminated clothing or skin can also result in these diseases. The symptoms of these diseases generally do not appear for 20 years or more after the initial exposure.

Exposure to asbestos has been shown to cause lung cancer, mesothelioma, and cancer of the stomach and colon.

Mesothelioma is a rare cancer of the thin membrane lining of the chest and abdomen. Symptoms of mesothelioma include shortness of breath, pain in the walls of the chest, and/or abdominal pain.

4.2.2 Lead Health Hazard Data: Ways in which lead enters your body. When absorbed into your body in certain doses lead is a toxic substance. The object of the lead standard is to prevent absorption of harmful quantities of lead.

The standard is intended to protect you not only from the immediate toxic effects of lead but also from the serious toxic effects that may not become apparent until years of exposure have passed. Lead can be absorbed into your body by inhalation (breathing) and ingestion (eating). Lead (except for certain organic lead compounds not covered by the standard, such as tetraethyl lead) is not absorbed through your skin. When lead is scattered in the air as a dust, fume or mist it can be inhaled and absorbed through your lungs and upper respiratory tract. Inhalation of airborne lead is generally the most important source of occupational lead absorption. You can also absorb lead through your digestive system if lead gets into your mouth and is swallowed. If you handle food, cigarettes, chewing tobacco, or makeup, which have lead on them or handle them with hands contaminated with lead, this will contribute to ingestion. A significant portion of the lead that you inhale or ingest gets into your blood stream. Once in your blood stream, lead is circulated throughout your body and stored in various organs and body tissues. Some of this lead is quickly filtered out of your body and excreted, but some remains in the blood and other tissues. As exposure to lead continues, the amount stored in your body will increase if you are absorbing more lead that your body is excreting.

Even though you may not be aware of any immediate symptoms of disease, this lead stored in your tissues can be slowly causing irreversible damage, first to individual cells, then to your organs and whole body systems.

Effects of overexposure to lead- Short-term (acute) overexposure. Lead is a potent, systemic poison that serves no known useful function once absorbed by your body. Taken in large enough doses, lead can kill you in a matter of days. A condition affecting the brain called acute encephalopathy may arise which develops quickly to seizures, coma, and death from cardiorespiratory arrest. A short-term dose of lead can lead to acute encephalopathy. Short-term occupational exposures of this magnitude are highly unusual, but not impossible. Similar forms of encephalopathy may arise from extended, chronic exposure to lower doses of lead. There is no sharp dividing line between rapidly developing acute effects of lead, and chronic effects, which take longer to acquire. Lead adversely affects numerous body systems, and causes forms of health impairment and disease, which arise after periods of exposure as short as days or as long as several years.

Long-term (chronic) overexposure. Chronic overexposure to lead may result in severe damage to your blood-forming, nervous, urinary and reproductive systems. Some common symptoms of chronic overexposure include loss of appetite, metallic taste in the mouth, anxiety, constipation, nausea, pallor, excessive tiredness, weakness, insomnia, headache, nervous irritability, muscle and joint pain or soreness, fine tremors, numbness, dizziness, hyperactivity and colic. In lead colic there may be severe abdominal pain. Damage to the central nervous system in general and the brain (encephalopathy) in particular is one of the most severe forms of lead poisoning. The most sever, often fatal, form of encephalopathy may be preceded by vomiting, a feeling of dullness progressing to drowsiness and stupor, poor memory, restlessness, irritability, tremor, and convulsions. It may arise suddenly with the onset of seizures, followed by coma, and death. There is a tendency for muscular weakness to develop at the same time. This weakness may progress to paralysis, often observed as a characteristic “wrist drop” or “foot drop” and is a manifestation of a disease to the nervous system called peripheral neuropathy. Chronic overexposure to lead also results in kidney disease with few, if any, symptoms appearing until extensive and most likely permanent kidney damage has occurred. Routine laboratory tests reveal the presence of this kidney disease only after about two-thirds of kidney function is lost.

When overt symptoms of urinary dysfunction arise, it is often too late to correct or prevent worsening conditions, and progression to kidney dialysis or death is possible. Chronic overexposure to lead impairs the reproductive systems of both men and women. Overexposure to lead may result in decrease sex drive, impotence and sterility in men. Lead can alter the structure of sperm cells raising the risk of birth defects. There is evidence of miscarriage and stillbirth in women whose husbands were exposed to lead or who were exposed to lead themselves. Lead exposure also may result in decreased fertility, and abnormal menstrual cycles in women. The course of pregnancy may be adversely affected by exposure to lead since lead crosses the placental barrier and poses risks to developing fetuses.

Children born of parents either one of whom were exposed to excess lead levels are more likely to have birth defects, mental retardation, behavioral disorders or die during the first year of childhood. Overexposure to lead also disrupts the blood-forming system resulting in decreased hemoglobin (the substance in the blood that carries oxygen to the cells) and ultimately anemia. Anemia is characterized by weakness, pallor, and fatigability as a result of decreased oxygen carrying capacity in the blood.

4.2.3 CADMIUM HEALTH EFFECTS: ROUTES OF EXPOSURE: Cadmium can cause local skin or eye irritation.

Cadmium can affect your health if inhaled or swallowed.

Cadmium is much more dangerous by inhalation than by ingestion. High exposures to cadmium that may be immediately dangerous to life or health occur in jobs where worker handle large quantities of cadmium producing dust or fume; heat cadmium is containing compounds or cadmium coated surfaces; weld with cadmium solders or cut cadmium containing materials such as blots. If cadmium compounds are ingested, serious gastrointestinal disturbances may result.

Severe exposure may occur before symptoms appear. Early symptoms may include mild irritation of the upper respiratory tract, a sensation of constriction of the throat, a metallic taste or cough or both. A period of one to ten hours may precede the onset of rapidly progressing shortness of breath, chest pains, and flu-like symptoms with weakness, fever, headache, chills, sweating, and muscular pains. Acute pulmonary edema usually develops within

24 hours and reaches a maximum by three days. If death from asphyxia does not occur, symptoms may resolve within a week. Mists of cadmium solutions are similarly dangerous.

Long-term (chronic) exposure: Repeated or long-term exposure to cadmium even at relatively low concentrations may result in kidney damage and an increased risk of cancer of the lung and prostate.

4.2.4 EFFECTS OF INORGANIC ARSENIC: Exposure to airborne concentrations of inorganic arsenic may cause lung cancer, and can be a skin irritant. Inorganic arsenic may also affect your body if swallowed.

Inhalation of inorganic arsenic compounds is the most common cause of chronic poisoning in the industrial situation. This condition is divided into three phases based on signs and symptoms.

First Phase: The worker complains of weakness, loss of appetite, some nausea, occasional vomiting, a sense of heaviness in the stomach, and some diarrhea.

Second Phase: The worker complains of conjunctivitis, a catarrhal state of the mucous membranes of the nose, larynx, and respiratory passage. Coriz, hoarseness, and mild tracheobronchitis may occur. Perforation of the nasal septum is common, and is probably the most typical lesion of the upper respiratory tract in occupational exposure to arsenical dust. Skin lesions, eczematous and allergic in type, are common.

Third Phase: The worker complains of symptoms or peripheral neuritis, initially of hands and feet, which is essentially sensory. In more severe cases, motor paralyses occur; the first muscles affected are usually the toe extensors and the peronei. In only the most severe cases will paralysis of flexor muscles of the feet or of the extensor muscles of hands occur.

4.2.5 HEXAVALENT CHROMIUM (CHROMIUM VI) HEALTH EFFECTS: The major health effects associated with exposure to Chromium VI include irritation or damage to the nose, throat, and lungs; skin dermatitis and ulcerations; kidney damage, irritation of GI tract, and lung and Sino nasal cancers.

Repeated exposure to hexavalent chromium can cause cancer. Primary routes of exposure include inhalation (dusts, mists, fumes); ingestion (contaminated food, water), and skin contact (plating chemicals, chromic acid). Breathing in high levels of hexavalent chromium can cause irritation to the nose and throat. Symptoms may include runny nose, sneezing, coughing, itching and a burning sensation. Repeated or prolonged exposure can cause sores to develop in the nose and result in nosebleeds. If the damage is severe, the nasal septum (wall separating the nasal passages) develops a hole in it (perforation). Breathing small amounts of hexavalent chromium even for long periods does not cause respiratory tract irritation in most people. Some employees become allergic to hexavalent chromium so that inhaling chromate compounds can cause asthma symptoms such as wheezing and shortness of breath. In solution, hexavalent chromium compounds are corrosive to the skin and can result in what is known as “chrome” ulcers. These are small-crusted skin sores with a rounded border. They heal slowly and leave scars.

CLAUSES INCORPORATED BY FULL TEXT

52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS AND COMMERCIAL SERVICES (NOV 2021)

(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 Government intends to award a single purchase order on the basis of the lowest priced, technically acceptable quote meeting or exceeding the acceptability standards for all the below listed technical and past performance factors. Each technical factor below has a submission requirement that must be included with the quote.

Technical Evaluation Factors

Evaluation Criteria Submission Requirement

Technical Factor 1-

The prospective Offeror must demonstrate specific experience providing laundry service of all required items (ex: variety of coveralls, leather items, rubber items, electrical safety coveralls and potentially contaminated (asbestos, lead, etc.) coveralls to PSNS of the complexity similar to or exceeding the scope identified in the Performance Work Statement (PWS) through a narrative of one (1) contract within the last

1-2 years.

The narrative portion of the Corporate Experience Data

Sheet has sufficient explanation how the referenced contract relates to the variety of laundry items requiring laundry service, proper handling, and delivery to PSNS as identified in the attached PWS.

Offerors are required to provide a completed

Corporate Experience Data Sheet (Exhibit B) on one (1) of the firms recently completed contracts (not to exceed two years older than date of solicitation) that demonstrates experience providing laundry service to

PSNS. The narrative portion of the data sheet must be clear, coherent, and prepared in sufficient detail for effective evaluation.

Altered or substituted data sheets may not be evaluated.

Past Performance Evaluation Factor

Evaluation criteria Submission Requirements

Evidence of successful past performance that demonstrates performance relevant to cleaning of potentially hazardous items similar to or exceeding the work required in the PWS.

Past performance information shall be obtained from established systems such as the Contractor

Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARs), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity

Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract

Reporting System (eSRS), or other databases. Past performance information may also be obtained from other sources available to the Government, such as the

Defense Contract Management Agency; and interviews with Program Managers, Contracting Officers, Fee

Determining Officials.

NOTE: In the case of an Offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the Offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance (see FAR 15.305

(a)(2)(iv)). Therefore, the Offeror shall be determined to have unknown (or “neutral”) past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, a neutral rating shall be considered “acceptable.”

Offerors are not required to submit any additional documentation in support of this evaluation criterion.

(b) Options. The Government will evaluate offers 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).

(End of provision)
