2.0 Government-Furnished Items and Responsibilities

2.1. Point of Contact: The Government will provide a designated Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) as the primary point of contact (POC) for the coordination of all efforts associated with this PWS.

2.2. Loading & Unloading: The Government will provide personnel and forklifts to load and unload all containers, equipment and materials onto/from the contractor’s flatbed trucks and trailers.

3.0 Contractor-Furnished Items and Services

3.1. General: The contractor shall provide all management, labor, and equipment necessary to perform the truck hauling services as defined in this PWS in a safe and efficient manner.

3.2. Equipment:

Vehicles: The contractor shall provide a sufficient number of flatbed trucks, chassis and trailers (flatbed, lowboy, step-deck, etc.) to meet the requirements of this PWS. Trucks and trailers must be capable of side-loading. Rollback or tilt bed truck and trailers can be used for some items. No box trucks, box vans or other types of rear loading trucks or trailers. All locations can accommodated trailers up to 53-ft long. A few taller items may require the use of low-deck trailers to transport to prevent over-height permitting.

Drop Trailers (if available): To minimize amount of drivers or wait times, and maximize amount of loads transported per day, the contractor and COR may elect to coordinate the use of additional flatbed trailers that can be dropped at the pickup/delivery locations. This will allow government personnel to load/unload the trailers independently of the truck and driver, minimizing driver wait times. The contractor and COR shall coordinate the drop-off and pickup of these staged trailers.

Condition: All contractor-furnished equipment shall be in good working order, professionally maintained, and comply with all applicable federal, state, and Department of Transportation (DOT) safety regulations.

3.3. Personnel:

Point of Contact: The contractor shall provide a POC to coordinate with the COR for all efforts, to include scheduling and issue resolution.

Drivers: The contractor shall provide a sufficient number of qualified drivers holding valid Commercial Driver's Licenses (CDL) with all necessary endorsements.

Base Access: Contractor personnel shall comply with all security requirements for accessing PSNS and NBK-Bangor, including obtaining any necessary passes or credentials. All contractor personnel requiring base access must be United States citizens.

3.4. Load Security: The contractor's driver is solely responsible for the proper inspection and securement of all cargo to the truck or trailer before departure. This includes providing and using all necessary binders, straps, chains, and dunnage to ensure safe and secure transport in accordance with DOT regulations. The Government will not be responsible for securing the load to the truck or trailer.

3.5. Vehicle Loading and Weight Capacity: The government only has estimated weights for each item being relocated. Due to the amount of items being relocated the government will not be able to provide accurate weights for each individual item. The contractor’s driver is solely responsible for ensuring contractor’s vehicles are properly loaded and within weight capacity of the vehicle. The contractor’s driver can notify material handling personnel on desired placement of each load to ensure adequate weight distribution and ability to properly secure the loads. Some pickup locations may not have certified scales available for the contractor’s driver to verify axle weights. The contractor can elect to provide their own portable scales if desired. The Government will not be responsible for verifying contractor’s vehicles are within DOT weight regulations.

3.6. Permitting: The government does not anticipate the need for oversize load permitting. The government does not plan to transport any single item greater than 8.5-feet in width or any single item over 40-feet in length. The maximum weight of any single item that the government plans to have transported is 34,000-lbs. The government assumes the deck height of a low-boy trailer is 24-inches. The maximum height of any single item the government plans to have transported will not exceed 11.5-feet. Any required oversize permitting caused by the contractors’ selection of transport vehicle will be the contractors’ responsibility.
