Additional Regulation or Supplemental Clauses Incorporated by Full Text

C-211-H018 APPROVAL BY THE GOVERNMENT (NAVSEA) (JAN 2019) (Jan 2019)

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.

(End of Text)

C-212-W002 COMMERCIAL SUPPLIER AGREEMENTS (NAVSEA) (MAR 2019) (Mar 2019)

(a) Commercial Supplier Agreement means End User License Agreement (EULA), Terms of Service (TOS), or similar legal instrument or agreement.

(b) Any Commercial Supplier Agreement must be provided in full text as part of a quote or offer without hyperlinks.

(c) The contract/order Schedule and Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 52.212-4, Contract Terms and Conditions-- Commercial Items, shall take precedence over any conflicting provisions in a Commercial Supplier Agreement.

(d) If any requirement in the Commercial Supplier Agreement conflicts with Federal law or regulations (see FAR 12.212(a)), the following shall apply:

(i) Any such requirement is unenforceable against the Government.

(ii) Neither the Government nor any Government authorized end user shall be deemed to have agreed to such requirement by virtue of it appearing in the Commercial Supplier Agreement. If the Commercial Supplier Agreement is invoked through an "I agree" click box or other comparable mechanism (e.g., "click-wrap" or "browse-wrap" agreements), execution does not bind the Government or any Government authorized end user to such requirement.

(iii) Any such requirement is deemed to be stricken from the Commercial Supplier Agreement.

(e) Automatic renewals. License Agreements will expire at end of the term identified in the Purchase Order /Contract. Automatic renewals are not permitted and any such provision is void.

(f) Changes to the Commercial Supplier Agreement. Unilateral changes of the Commercial Supplier Agreement are impermissible and any requirement authorizing such changes is unenforceable. Changes must be in writing and executed by both parties to be effective.

(g) Third Part License (Embedded Software).

(i) The Contractor agrees that it has obtained all necessary licenses for the Government for any third party materials (including without limitation all Open Source licenses) provided within the product.

(ii) Contractor agrees that it complies with and shall continue to comply with all of its obligations under Third Party Licenses (including without limitation all Open Source licenses) associated with any third party materials provided within each product.

(iii) To the extent that the Government's use of the software products licensed herein is in compliance with the Contractor's Commercial Supplier Agreement, the Government's use will also be in compliance with any Third Party Licenses.

(h) Audits. In lieu of any audit provisions in the Commercial Supplier Agreement, the Government agrees that, no more than once every twelve (12) months or within a reasonable time after a transfer, the Contractor shall, upon reasonable notice, have the right to require that the Government conduct an internal audit to ascertain and verify the number of licenses in use and to verify that the Government's use of the product is in conformity with this Agreement. The Government is not required to use any tools provided by the Contractor to conduct the audit and shall not be required to pay for any tools provided by the Contractor to conduct the audit. The results of any such audit shall be kept confidential.

If verification discloses that the Government's use is not in conformity with this Agreement, the Government agrees to resolve any noncompliance by either removing or correcting the unlicensed installation and use of the software identified by the audit as not in conformity with this Agreement.

(i) Confidentiality. Commercial Supplier Agreements' terms and the final contract pricing may not be deemed confidential. Other marked confidential information will be appropriately guarded.

(j) Assignment. The Government shall have the right, without the prior written consent of the Contractor or its authorized resellers, to assign, reassign, or transfer software licenses among Government employees or the Government's rights in the Contractor's product to any governmental organization that is managed, operated, or controlled by the Government.

Such authorization includes sublicensing, and assignment or transfer among or between authorized users. In the event authorized users are reorganized or restructured such that their responsibilities and operations are transferred to another government agency, the agency shall have the right to assign the affected program licenses to a successor agency. The licensed agency and the successor agency agree to be bound to the Commercial Supplier Agreement as modified. The transferee shall be bound by the license metrics and limitations in this license. Government shall complete any documentation required by the Contractor to facilitate the transfer of this license, and continuation of support shall be the responsibility of the transferee.

For the avoidance of doubt, any assignment or transfer of licenses of the Contractor's products is also subject to all other terms of the Commercial Supplier Agreement, as well as the Contractor's policies governing product dependencies and version compatibility. Reassignment does not require that the license be under maintenance or support in order to execute a transfer.

(k) Litigation. Any requirement insisting that the commercial supplier or licensor control any litigation arising from the government's use of the contractor's supplies or services is deleted and unenforceable.

(l) Equitable Remedies. Equitable remedies, injunctive relief, and binding arbitration requirements shall not be enforced unless explicitly authorized by agency guidance or statute.

(m) Venue. Any claim or dispute shall be resolved under the Contract Disputes Act and FAR 52.233-1. The forum for resolution of disputes and applicable statutes of limitation shall be governed by federal law.

(n) Applicable law. In accordance with FAR 52.233-4, United States law shall apply to resolve any claim of breach of this contract and such actions shall be handled in the applicable Federal court of jurisdiction.

(End of Text)

C-215-H002 CONTRACTOR PROPOSAL (NAVSEA) (OCT 2018) (Oct 2018)

(f) It is agreed that, to the extent that any technical or other data is computer software by virtue of its delivery in digital form, the Government shall be licensed to use that digital-form data with exactly the same rights and limitations as if the data had been delivered as hard copy.

(g) Any limited rights legends or other allowed legends placed by a Contractor on technical data or other data delivered in digital form shall be digitally included on the same media as the digital-form data and must be associated with the corresponding digital-form technical data to which the legend(s) apply to the extent possible.

(a) For other than firm fixed priced contract line item numbers (CLINs), the Contractor agrees to segregate costs incurred under this contract/task order (TO), as applicable, at the lowest level of performance, either at the sub line item number (SLIN) or CLIN level, rather than at the total contract/TO level, and to submit invoices reflecting costs incurred at that level. Supporting documentation in Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) for invoices shall include summaries of work charged during the period covered as well as overall cumulative summaries by individual labor categories, rates, and hours (both straight time and overtime) invoiced; as well as, a cost break down of other direct costs (ODCs), materials, and travel, by technical instruction (TI), SLIN, or CLIN level. For other than firm fixed price subcontracts, subcontractors are also required to provide labor categories, rates, and hours (both straight time and overtime) invoiced; as well as, a cost breakdown of ODCs, materials, and travel invoiced. Supporting documentation may be encrypted before submission to the prime contractor for WAWF invoice submittal. Subcontractors may email encryption code information directly to the Contracting Officer and Contracting Officer Representative (COR). Shouldthe subcontractor lack encryption capability, the subcontractor may also email detailed supporting cost information directly to the Contracting Officer and COR; or other method as agreed to by the Contracting Officer.

(b) Contractors submitting payment requests and receiving reports to WAWF using either Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) or Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) shall separately send an email notification to the COR and Contracting Officer on the same date they submit the invoice in WAWF. No payments shall be due if the contractor does not provide the COR and Contracting Officer email notification as required herein.

2. Quote Submission Module/Portal

Quotations shall be submitted through the PSM Module/Portal located at https://piee.eb.mil by the solicitation closing date and time specified on the cover letter of this solicitation, block (8). Offers must be received via the PSM portal by the closing date and time in order to be considered for award. It is not permissible to upload a link to an internet-based data center (e.g. Google cloud or Dropbox). Offeror shall submit all required quote information directly in the PSM portal. In the rare event the portal is down or inaccessible, Offeror shall immediately notify the cognizant Contracting Officer, ( Jillian Randazzo jillian.randazzo.civ@us.navy.mil ), and Contract Specialist, ( William Morton william.h.morton39.

Additional Regulation or Supplemental Clauses Incorporated by Full Text

L-204-H003 NOTIFICATION OF USE OF NAVY SUPPORT CONTRACTORS FOR OFFICIAL

CONTRACT FILES (NAVSEA) (APR 2019)

(Apr 2019)

(a) NAVSEA may use a contractor to manage official contract files here in after referred to as "the support contractor", including the official file supporting this procurement. These official files may contain information that is considered a trade secret, proprietary, business sensitive or otherwise protected pursuant to law or regulation, here in after referred to as "protected information". File 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 paper-based 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 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 offeror 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.

(d) NAVSEA may, without further notice, enter into contracts with other contractors for these services. Offerors are free to enter into separate non-disclosure agreements with the file support contractor. Contact the Procuring Contracting Officer for contractor specifics.

(End of Provision)

L-209-H009 NOTIFICATION OF POTENTIAL ORGANIZATIONAL OR PERSONAL CONFLICT

(S) OF INTEREST (NAVSEA) (APR 2022)

(Apr 2022)

(a) Offerors are reminded that certain existing contractual arrangements may preclude, restrict or limit participation, in whole or in part, either as a subcontractor or as a prime contractor under this competitive procurement. Of primary concern are those contractual arrangements in which the Offeror provides support to , or related laboratories (if applicable), in support of operation of the office or any of its programs. General guidance may be found in FAR 9.505; however, this guidance is not all-inclusive. The Offeror's attention is directed to the "Organizational Conflict of Interest" (OCI) or similar requirement which may be contained in current or completed contract(s) which prohibits the prime or subcontractor from providing certain supplies or services to the Government as described above during the period of the current "support" contract(s) or for a period after completion of the "support" contract(s). Notwithstanding the existence or non-existence of an OCI or similar requirement in current or completed contract(s), the Offeror shall comply with FAR subpart 9.5 and identify whether an OCI exists and not rely solely on the presence of an OCI or similar requirement.

(b) Offerors also are reminded that certain potential conflicts of interest may arise where an Offeror has unequal access to nonpublic information about a competitor that may provide the Offeror with an unfair competitive advantage and preclude, restrict or limit participation, in whole or in part, either of the individual, subcontractor or prime contractor under this competitive procurement. For example, a potential conflict may arise if former Department of Navy employee(s), subcontractors, or teaming partners of the Offeror may have gained access to nonpublic information about a competitor through participation in previous or ongoing performance or during the solicitation development/source selection process associated with this competitive procurement, and then participates in the formation of the Offeror's proposal. Other potential conflicts of interest may arise where either the former Department of Navy employee(s), subcontractors, or teaming partners of the Offeror under this competitive procurement set the ground rules for competition; for example, by drafting specifications or assisting in the drafting of the statement of work. General guidance may be found in FAR 3.101 and 9.505; however, this guidance is not all-inclusive.

(c) If an Offeror identifies a potential conflict of interest that exists at any tier, that Offeror is requested to notify the Contracting Officer within 14 days of the date of this solicitation. The Offeror shall provide: (1) the contract or previous source selection's solicitation number and name and phone number of the Contracting Officer for the contract which gives rise to a potential conflict of interest; (2) a copy of the requirement; (3) the statement of work and technical instruction from the existing contract, as applicable; (4) a brief description of the type of work to be performed by each subcontractor under the competitive procurement; (5) a brief description of the individual's, subcontractor's, or teaming partner's unequal access to nonpublic information about a competitor, which may lead to a conflict of interest in the formation of the Offeror's proposal, or establishment of ground rules for this competitive procurement, as applicable; (6) an OCI mitigation plan, as applicable; and (7) any additional information the Contracting Officer should consider in making a determination of whether a conflict of interest exists.
