DJAR-PGD-07-12 Maintaining Contractor Performance During a Pandemic or Other Emergency Continuing Contract Performance During a Pandemic Influenza or other National Emergency During a Pandemic or other emergency we understand that our contractor workforce will experience the same high levels of absentee-ism as our federal employees. Although the Excusable Delays and Termination for Default clauses used in government contracts list epidemics and quarantine restrictions among the reasons to excuse delays in contract performance, we expect our contractors to make a reasonable effort to keep performance at an acceptable level during emergency periods.The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has provided guidance to federal managers and employees on the kinds of actions to be taken to ensure the continuity of operations during emergency periods. This guidance is also applicable to our contract workforce.

Contractors are expected to have reasonable policies in place for continuing work performance, particularly those performing mission critical services, during a pandemic influenza or other emergency situation.

The types of actions a federal contractor should reasonably take to help ensure performance are: Encourage employees to get inoculations or follow other preventive measures as advised by the public health service. Contractors should cross-train workers as backup for all positions performing critical services. This is particularly important for work such as guard services where telework is not an option.

Implement telework to the greatest extent possible in the workgroup so systems are in place to support successful remote work in an emergency. Communicate expectations to all employees regarding their roles and responsibilities in relation to remote work in the event of a pandemic health crisis or other emergency. Establish communication processes to notify employees of activation of this plan.

Integrate pandemic health crisis response expectations into telework agreements.

With the employee, assess requirements for working at home (supplies and equipment needed for an extended telework period). Se-curity concerns should be considered in making equipment choices; agencies or contractors may wish to avoid use of employees' personal computers and provide them with PCs or laptops as appropriate.

Determine how all employees who may telework will communicate with one another and with management to accomplish work. Practice telework regularly to ensure effectiveness. Make it clear that in emergency situations, employees must perform all duties assigned by management, even if they are out-side usual or customary duties.

Identify how time and attendance will be maintained. It is the contractor's responsibility to advise the government contracting officer if they anticipate not being able to perform and to work with the Department to fill gaps as necessary. This means direct communication with the contracting officer or in his/her absence, an-other responsible person in the contracting office via telephone or email messages acknowledging the contractors notification. The incumbent contractor is responsible for assisting the Department in estimating the adverse impacts of nonperformance and to work diligently with the Department to develop a strategy for maintaining the continuity of operations.

6.0 System for Award Management (SAM) Requirement

Please ensure your firm is registered in System for Award Management (SAM) - All vendors must be registered in SAM, effective July 29, 2012, to receive government contracts. The FBI utilizes a financial system that has a direct interface with the SAM. If any current FBI vendor data conflicts with SAM Data, the information contained in SAM may override our current information. Please ensure that your company’s SAM information is updated and accurate. This includes: TIN, EFT, DUNs, addresses and contact information.

7.0 Requirements for Procurement of Critical Assets

Every effort must be made to ensure that supplies are provided and integrated and services are performed using sound security components, practices, and procedures. Acquisition of supplies or services from concerns under Foreign Ownership, Control, or Influence (FOCI) or of supplies developed, manufactured, maintained, or modified by concerns under FOCI (any or all of which shall be referred to herein as "Use of FOCI source") is of serious concern and must be approved prior to contract award. Approval decisions will be made on a case-by-case basis after the source or technology has been identified by the Offeror and subjected to a risk assessment. The risk assessment process will vary depending on the acquisition type and proposed use of a FOCI source, available risk mitigation measures, and the information/justification provided by the Offeror.

Any Offeror responding to this Request for Proposal (RFP), Request for Quotation (RFQ), or Sealed Bid acknowledges the Government's requirements to secure services or equipment from firms which are not under Foreign Ownership, Control, or Influence (FOCI), or where any FOCI, in the opinion of the Government, adversely impacts on National Security or security requirements. The Offeror understands and agrees that the Government retains the right to reject any response to this RFP, RFQ, or Sealed Bid made by the Offeror, without any further recourse by or explanation to the Offeror, if the FOCI for that Offeror is determined by the Government to be an unacceptable security risk.

Risk assessments will be on a case-by-case basis and will be used to determine whether the use of a FOCI source poses an unacceptable security risk. If an unacceptable security risk is determined, the Government retains the right to reject the use of a FOCI source or to require that certain risk mitigation measures be taken by the Offeror. Similarly, the Government retains the unilateral right to approve the use of a FOCI source when the risk assessment indicates that such use would be in the Governments' best interests. If the use of a FOCI source is not approved, no classified information will be disclosed to the Offeror as part of the Government's rationale for non-approval. The Offeror (prime and subs) may not seek reimbursement from the Government for any costs associated with responding to this RFP, RFQ or Sealed Bid, as a result of a FOCI non approval decision.

8.0 Evaluation Factors

Award shall be made to the offeror whose quotation, conforming to this solicitation, is determined to be Responsible, Lowest Price Technically Acceptable. The award will be based on the firm fixed price quote with NET30 payment terms. By submitting a quote to this RFQ, you agree to all terms and conditions listed herein. All terms and conditions listed in this RFQ trump any information listed on the vendors quote. Any requested documentation not included with the original submission shall disqualify the quote from further consideration.

9.0 Invoice and Payment

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) requires vendors to submit invoices and supporting documentation electronically through the Invoice Processing Platform (IPP).

IPP is a secure, web-based electronic invoicing system provided by the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Bureau of the Fiscal Service (Treasury) in partnership with the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis (FRSTL). IPP is available at no cost to any commercial vendor or independent contractor doing business with a participating government agency.

To learn more about IPP, please visit IPP.gov.

The following sections provide important information regarding FBI’s electronic invoicing requirements.

Invoice Submission

Vendors are required to create and submit electronic invoices using the IPP system.

Invoices submitted by email will not be accepted. This requirement applies immediately upon contract award.

Never submit an invoice to both IPP and Central Invoicing.

Obtaining IPP Access

If your company has already enrolled in IPP:

You will not be required to re-register. Please contact your company's IPP account administrator so that he/she may add you as an additional user to your company’s IPP Collector account.

If your company has NOT enrolled in IPP:

Your company will be auto enrolled for IPP using information from your SAM.gov account. Your company's Primary Electronic Business Point of Contact (POC) will be designated as an IPP administrator. This POC will be contacted by email to register when the FBI initiates the enrollment process through IPP. To prevent enrollment delays, please ensure your designated Electronic Business POC in SAM.gov is up to date.

Your company’s IPP administrator will be responsible for initial account registration as well as creating and managing your company’s IPP users and permissions. Please note that due to U.S. Department of the Treasury guidelines, IPP cannot set up User IDs using a shared email address.

How to register for IPP:

1. Once FBI initiates the enrollment process, your company’s designated Electronic Business POC in SAM.gov will receive two emails from IPP Customer Support (ipp.noreply@mail.eroc.twai.gov):

The first email contains the initial administrative IPP User ID The second email, sent within 24 hours of receipt of the first email, contains a temporary password You must log in with the temporary password within 30 days

2. Registration is complete when the initial administrative user logs into the IPP web site with the User ID and password provided and accepts the IPP rules of behavior. Additional user accounts, including administrators, can be created after initial login.

Training

Vendor training materials, including a first-time login tutorial, are available on the IPP.gov website.

Once you have logged in to the IPP application, you will have access to user guides that provide step-by-step instructions for all IPP capabilities ranging from creating and submitting an invoice to setting up email notifications.

Live webinars are held monthly and provide a great opportunity to learn the basics of the system. See IPP.gov for more details.

Additional Support

IPP Customer Support Team is available Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm EST

Phone: (866) 973-3131 Email: IPPCustomerSupport@fiscal.treasury.gov For answers to frequently asked questions, visit the Vendor FAQ page on the
