GENERAL TEXT

USE OF NAVY SUPPORT CONTRACTORS FOR OFFICIAL CONTRACT FILES

(a) NAVSEA may use a file room management support contractor, hereinafter referred to as "the support contractor", to manage its file room, in which all official contract files, including the official file supporting this procurement, are retained. These official files may contain information that is considered a trade secret, proprietary, business sensitive or otherwise protected pursuant to law or regulation, hereinafter referred to as “protected information”. File room management services consist of any of the following: secretarial or clerical support; data entry; document reproduction, scanning, imaging, or destruction; operation, management, or maintenance of paperbased or electronic mail rooms, file rooms, or libraries; and supervision in connection with functions listed herein.

(b) The cognizant Contracting Officer will ensure that any NAVSEA contract under which these file room management services are acquired will contain a requirement that:

(1) The support contractor not disclose any information;

(2) Individual employees are to be instructed by the support contractor regarding the sensitivity of the official contract files;

(3) The support contractor performing these services be barred from providing any other supplies and/or services, or competing to do so, to NAVSEA for the period of performance of its contract and for an additional three years thereafter unless otherwise provided by law or regulation; and,

(4) In addition to any other rights the contractor may have, it is a third party beneficiary who has the right of direct action against the support contractor, or any person to whom the support contractor has released or disclosed protected information, for the unauthorized duplication, release, or disclosure of such protected information.

(c) Execution of this contract by the contractor is considered consent to NAVSEA's permitting access to any information, irrespective of restrictive markings or the nature of the information submitted, by its file room management support contractor for the limited purpose of executing its file room support contract responsibilities.

(d) NAVSEA may, without further notice, enter into contracts with other contractors for these services. Contractors should enter into separate non-disclosure agreements with the file room contractor. Contact the Procuring Contracting Officer for contractor specifics. However, any such agreement will not be considered a prerequisite before information submitted is stored in the file room or otherwise encumber the government.

(End of text)

PERMITS AND RESPONSIBILITIES

The Contractor shall, without additional expense to the Government, be responsible for obtaining any necessary licenses and permits for complying with any applicable Federal, State, and Municipal laws, codes, and regulations for shipping and transportation including, but not limited to, any movement over public highways of overweight/over dimensional materials.

ACCESS TO THE VESSEL

Officers, employees and associates of other prime Contractors with the Government and their subcontractors, shall, as authorized by the Supervisor, have, at all reasonable times, admission to the plant, access to the vessel(s) where and as required, and be permitted, within the plant and on the vessel(s) required, to perform and fulfill their respective obligations to the Government. The Contractor shall make reasonable arrangements with the Government or Contractors of the Government, as shall have been identified and authorized by the Supervisor to be given admission to the plant and access to the vessel(s) for office space, work areas, storage or shop areas, or other facilities and services, necessary for the performance of the respective responsibilities involved, and reasonable to their performance.

(End of Text)

PROTECTION OF THE SHIP DURING ADVERSE ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS

The Contractor shall ensure that the ship(s) and all related material at the Contractor's facilities are protected during conditions of heavy weather, high winds, heavy snow and icing, high water or similar adverse environmental conditions. The Contractor shall develop, maintain, and implement as necessary an “Adverse Environmental Conditions Plan” which prescribes the actions and procedures and assigns responsibilities for action to be taken in preparation for and during the period of adverse environmental conditions. The Contractor shall furnish the plan to the Supervisor and shall make such changes in the plan as the Supervisor considers necessary to provide for adequate protection of the ship(s) and the materials and equipment to be installed therein.

APPROVAL BY THE GOVERNMENT

Approval by the Government as required under this contract and applicable specifications shall not relieve the Contractor of its obligation to comply with the specifications and with all other requirements of the contract, nor shall it impose upon the Government any liability it would not have had in the absence of such approval.

PROTECTION OF THE VESSEL

(a) The Contractor shall exercise reasonable care, as agreed upon with the Supervisor, to protect the vessel from fire, and shall maintain a system of inspection over the activities of its welders, burners, riveters, painters, pipe fitters, and similar workers, and of its subcontractors, particularly where such activities are undertaken in the vicinity of the vessel's magazines, fuel oil tanks, or store rooms containing inflammable materials. All ammunition, fuel oil, motor fuels, and cleaning fluids shall have been off‑loaded and the tanks cleaned, except as may be mutually agreed upon between the Contractor and the Supervisor prior to work on the vessel by the Contractor. Fire hose lines shall be maintained by the Contractor ready for immediate use on the vessel at all times while the vessel is berthed alongside the Contractor's pier or in dry dock. All tanks under alteration or repair shall be cleaned, washed, and steamed out or otherwise made safe to the extent necessary, and the Contractor shall furnish the vessel's Gas Free Officer and the Supervisor with a "Gas Chemists' Certificate" before any hot work is done. The Contractor shall maintain a fire watch aboard the vessel in areas where the Contractor is working. All other fire watches aboard the vessel shall be the responsibility of the Government.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in contractually invoked technical specifications or NAVSEA furnished directives, while the vessel is at the Contractor's plant and when the temperature becomes as low as thirty‑five degrees Fahrenheit, the Contractor shall assist the Government when requested in keeping all pipe‑lines, fixtures, traps, tanks, and other receptacles on the vessel drained to avoid damage from freezing, or if this is not practicable, the vessel shall be kept heated to prevent such damage. The vessel's stern tube and propeller hubs shall be protected by the Contractor from frost damage by applied heat through the use of a salamander or other proper means.

(c) The work shall, whenever practicable, be performed in such manner as not to interfere with the work performed by military personnel attached to the vessel, and provisions shall be made so that personnel assigned shall have access to the vessel at all times, it being understood that such personnel will not unduly interfere with the work of the Contractor's workmen.

(d) The Contractor shall at all times keep the site of the work on the vessel free from accumulation of waste material or rubbish caused by its employees, or the work performed by the Contractor in accordance with this contract, and at the completion of such work shall remove all rubbish from and about the site of the work, and shall leave the work in its immediate vicinity "broom clean", unless more exactly specified by the Supervisor.

ACCESS TO THE VESSELS BY NON-U.S. CITIZENS

(a) No person not known to be a U.S. citizen shall be eligible for access to naval vessels, work sites and adjacent areas when said vessels are under construction, conversion, overhaul, or repair, except upon a finding by COMNAVSEA or his designated representative that such access should be permitted in the best interest of the United States. The Contractor shall establish procedures to comply with this requirement and NAVSEAINST 5510.2D.

(b) If the Contractor desires to employ non-U.S. citizens in the performance of work under this contract or agreement that requires access as specified in paragraph (a) of this requirement, approval must be obtained prior to access for each contract or agreement where such access is required. To request such approval for non-U.S. citizens of friendly countries, the Contractor shall submit to the cognizant Contract Administration Office (CAO), an Access Control Plan (ACP) which shall contain as a minimum, the following information:

(1) Badge or Pass oriented identification, access, and movement control system for non-U.S. citizen employees with the badge or pass to be worn or displayed on outer garments at all times while on the Contractor's facilities and when performing work aboard ship.

(i) Badges must be of such design and appearance that permits easy recognition to facilitate quick and positive identification.

(ii) Access authorization and limitations for the bearer must be clearly established and in accordance with applicable security regulations and instructions.

(iii) A control system, which provides rigid accountability procedures for handling lost, damaged, forgotten or no longer required badges, must be established.

(iv) A badge or pass check must be performed at all points of entry to the Contractor's facilities or by a site supervisor for work performed on vessels outside the Contractor's plant.

(2) Contractor's plan for ascertaining citizenship and for screening employees for security risk.

(3) Data reflecting the number, nationality, and positions held by non‑U.S. citizen employees, including procedures to update data as non‑U.S. citizen employee data changes, and pass to cognizant CAO

(4) Contractor's plan for ensuring subcontractor compliance with the provisions of the Contractor's ACP.

(5) These conditions and controls are intended to serve as guidelines representing the minimum requirements of an acceptable ACP. They are not meant to restrict the Contractor in any way from imposing additional controls necessary to tailor these requirements to a specific facility.

(c) To request approval for non-U.S. citizens of hostile and/or communist-controlled countries (listed in Department of Defense Industrial Security Manual, DOD 5220.22-M or available from cognizant CAO), Contractor shall include in the ACP the following employee data: name, place of birth, citizenship (if different from place of birth), date of entry to U.S., extenuating circumstances (if any) concerning immigration to U.S., number of years employed by Contractor, position, and stated intent concerning U.S. citizenship. COMNAVSEA or his designated representative will make individual determinations for desirability of access for the above group. Approval of ACP's for access of non-U.S. citizens of friendly countries will not be delayed for approval of non-U.S. citizens of hostile communist-controlled countries. Until approval is received, Contractor must deny access to vessels for employees who are non- U.S. citizens of hostile and/or communist-controlled countries.

(d) The Contractor shall fully comply with approved ACPs. Noncompliance by the Contractor or subcontractor serves to cancel any authorization previously granted, in which case the Contractor shall be precluded from the continued use of non-U.S. citizens on this contract or agreement until such time as the compliance with an approved ACP is demonstrated and upon a determination by the CAO that the Government's interests are protected. Further, the Government reserves the right to cancel previously granted authority when such cancellation is determined to be in the Government's best interest. Use of non-U.S. citizens, without an approved ACP or when a previous authorization has been canceled, will be considered a violation of security regulations. Upon confirmation by the CAO of such violation, this contract, agreement or any job order issued under this agreement may be terminated for default in accordance with the clause entitled "Default (Fixed-Price Supply And Service)" (FAR 52.249-8), "Default (Fixed-Price Research And Development)" (FAR 52.249-9) or "Termination (Cost Reimbursement)" (FAR 52.249- 6), as applicable.

(e) Prime Contractors have full responsibility for the proper administration of the approved ACP for all work performed under this contract or agreement, regardless of the location of the vessel, and must ensure compliance by all subcontractors, technical representatives and other persons granted access to U.S. Navy vessels, adjacent areas, and work sites.

(f) In the event the Contractor does not intend to employ non-U.S. citizens in the performance of the work under this contract, but has non-U.S. citizen employees, such employees must be precluded from access to the vessel and its work site and those shops where work on the vessel's equipment is being performed. The ACP must spell out how non-U.S. citizens are excluded from access to contract work areas.

(g) The same restriction as in paragraph (f) above applies to other non-U.S. citizens who have access to the Contractor's facilities (e.g., for accomplishing facility improvements, from foreign crewed vessels within its facility, etc.) except that, with respect to access to the vessel and worksite, the restrictions shall not apply to uniformed U.S.

Navy personnel who are non-U.S. citizens and who are either assigned to the ship or require access to the ship to perform their duties.

LOGISTICS SUPPORT REQUIREMENT

(a) This requirement applies whenever the contract specifications, by reference to a Military Specification or otherwise, specify repair parts or stock components (hereinafter called "repair parts") for a ship component or item of equipment.

(b) With respect to ship components or equipment manufactured other than in the United States or Canada, in addition to any other data required by this contract, the Contractor agrees that it will furnish under this contract sufficient data so that the repair parts can be reproduced in the United States or Canada unless the suppliers of the ship components or equipment have made arrangements, satisfactory to the Contractor and approved by the Contracting Officer, for the manufacturing of repair parts in the United States or Canada. For the purpose of this requirement, "sufficient data" shall mean detail drawings and other technical information sufficiently extensive in detail to show design, construction, dimensions, and operation or function, manufacturing methods or processes, treatment or chemical composition of materials, plant layout, and tooling. All data shall be in the English language and according to the United States system of weights and measures, and drawings for components, assemblies, subassemblies and parts protected by U.S. patents shall contain a prominent notation to that effect fully identifying the patent or patents involved, and bearing the number of this contract.

(c) In order to satisfy the requirements of paragraph (b), above, unless the supplier of the ship components or equipment has made arrangements, satisfactory to the Contractor and approved by the Contracting Officer, for the manufacture of such repair parts in the United States or Canada, the Contractor shall include a clause in all subcontracts for the purchase of ship components or equipment from foreign sources, acceptable to the Contracting Officer, granting to the United States Government for a period of seven (7) years, "Government Purpose Rights" (as defined in paragraph (a) of the clause of this contract entitled "Rights In Technical Data--Other Than Commercial Products and Commercial Services" (DFARS 252.227‑7013) in all technical data necessary to manufacture spare and repair parts for such components or equipment.

(8) Supplementing the foregoing, a narrative statement of the nature of the alleged Government act or omission, when the alleged Government act or omission occurred, and the “causal” relationship between the alleged Government act or omission and the claimed consequences thereof, cross-referenced to the detailed information provided as required above.

(c) Each proposal submitted in accordance with this requirement shall include a copy of the Contractor's ship's labor budget at the cost level in effect as of the date the event began, the cost incurred at the cost level as of the same date, and the proposed effect of the change at the cost class level.

(d) It is recognized that individual claims for equitable adjustment may not include all of the factors listed in subparagraphs (b)(1) through (b)(8) above, or that the Contractor may not reasonably be able to furnish complete information on all of the factors listed in subparagraph (b)(1) through (b)(8) above. Accordingly, the Contractor is only required to set forth in its request for equitable adjustment information with respect to those factors which are relevant to the individual request for equitable adjustment, or in the level of detail which is reasonably available to the Contractor.

(e) In addition to any information required under paragraph (b) above, each proposal submitted in support of a claim for equitable adjustment, under any requirement of this contract, in an amount which requires certified cost or pricing data, shall contain such cost or pricing data as the Contracting Officer shall require with respect to each individual claim item, and shall be in sufficient detail to permit the Contracting Officer to cross‑reference the claimed increased costs, or delay in delivery, or both, as appropriate, with the information submitted pursuant to subparagraphs (b)(1) through (b)(8) hereof.

CONTRACTOR PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION REPORTS

(a) Contract Problem Identification Reports (CPIRs) shall be used by the Contractor for the purpose of alerting the Government to actual or potential contract problems and of establishing an early dialogue between the Contractor and the Government with regard thereto.

(b) A "contract problem" is a fact or circumstance of which the Contractor is aware that does, will or reasonably is anticipated to (1) have a significant or substantial impact on the delivery schedule or completion of contract performance or the cost of performance of the contract (increase or decrease) or (2) requires modification to the contract or specification(s). The terms "significant" and "substantial" shall be interpreted in the same manner as they would be interpreted by a reasonably prudent business person under the relevant circumstances.

(c) The Contractor shall report each contract problem promptly and in no event later than ten (10) calendar days, after the Contractor identifies such contract problem. A written CPIR shall be transmitted via the Administrative Contracting Officer (ACO) to the Procuring Contracting Officer and to the cognizant NAVSEA Program Office.

Each CPIR shall be entitled "Contract Problem Identification Report", shall be dated, numbered sequentially and shall set forth the following based on the best and most complete information then known or available to the Contractor:

(1) The nature of the contract problem;

(2) The date on which the contract problem arose and the date on which the contract problem was identified as such;

(d) Follow-up status reports of each contract problem, identified by the original CPIR number, shall be furnished monthly or more frequently as required by the Contracting Officer. A final follow-up report shall be furnished immediately following resolution of each contract problem.

(e) CPIRs shall not be submitted when notice of the same contract problem is required to be furnished to the Government pursuant to any other requirement of this contract. The submission of a CPIR, however, does not relieve the Contractor of its obligations to provide notice required under any other requirement of this contract.

EXTENSION OF COMMERCIAL WARRANTY

The Contractor shall extend to the Government the full coverage of any standard commercial warranty normally offered in a similar commercial sale, provided that such warranty is available at no additional cost to the Government. The Contractor shall provide a copy of the standard commercial warranty with the item. The standard commercial warranty period shall begin upon the final acceptance of the applicable material or software.

Acceptance of the standard commercial warranty does not waive the Government's rights under the "Inspection" clause, nor does it limit the Government's rights with regard to other terms and conditions of the contract. In the event of a conflict, the terms and conditions of the contract shall take precedence over the standard commercial warranty.

DRY-DOCKING FACILITIES AND SHIPBUILDING WAYS CERTIFICATION

Dry-docking facilities and shipbuilding ways employed in the performance of this contract shall be certified in accordance with MIL‑STD‑1625D (SH) dated 27 August 2009, Safety Certification Program for Dry-docking Facilities and Shipbuilding Ways for U.S. Navy Ships.
