G.5 Invoice Processing Platform (IPP)

Document Number: TSBQ202300001 Page 11 of 32

Beginning June 2016, the United States Capitol Police (USCP) will be using the Invoice Processing Platform (IPP) to facilitate the electronic exchange of purchase orders (POs), invoices, and payment information to its suppliers of goods and services.

IPP is a government-wide, secure web-based payment information service offered free of charge to government agencies and their suppliers by the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Bureau of the Fiscal Service.

A designated Primary Administrator for each vendor must complete the initial logon. The Administrator can add users and additional Administrators as needed. Once users have received their User ID and password, there is a one-time enrollment step for each user in order to start using IPP.

One-time enrollment in the IPP means that vendor’s receive a series of emails from Treasury services. The first email will have the vendor IPP Logon ID and a link to the IPP application. A second email, which will be sent within 24 hours of the first email, contains an IPP password. Once vendor’s receive these emails, they can log into the IPP application and complete the registration process.

Once registered to use IPP, vendor’s will be able to receive e-mail notifications when invoices are paid, view online payment history, and access remittance downloads. The e-mail notification of payment is sent when a payment is distributed to the vendor’s bank account and may include the following payment information: Date of payment, dollar amount, invoice number, paying agency, payee name, and ACH trace number.

IPP Customer Support is available to assist users of the system and can answer questions related to accessing IPP or completing the registration process.

• Toll-free number: 866-973-3131

• Email address: IPPCustomerSupport@fms.treas.gov

• Hours of operation: Monday through Friday (excluding bank holidays) from 8:00 am - 6:00 pm ET

Vendor’s are still required to complete and submit PAYEE INFORMATION on the CP 1470 (06/16)– UNITED STATES CAPITOL POLICE VENDOR ENROLLMENT/UPDATE FORM (Attachment 2) and indicate whether or not they are currently enrolled in IPP, their Accounts Receivable Point of Contact or IPP User; their telephone number and email address, along with current Bank Routing and Account Information. This information is used for PAYMENT PURPOSES ONLY and the CP 1470 will be issued as an attachment to all USCP RFPs and RFQs or will be provided by the Contract Specialist prior to award of any USCP Delivery Order, Purchase Order or Task Order.

If the Contractor knows or has reason to believe the employee may pose a heightened security risk, either due to the employee's access to sensitive USCP facilities, the employee's access to sensitive USCP equipment (i.e. computer systems, communications equipment, etc.), or the manner of the departure (lay off, firing, disgruntled), than the Contractor has a responsibility to contact USCP System Operations Section at (202) 593-4332 immediately to ensure, at a minimum, badge access is cancelled. The Contractor will then ensure appropriate action is taken to ensure the badge is received prior to release of any further payments to the employee.

d. If an employee is temporarily removed from working on-site at the USCP, but it is anticipated there may be a future need to work on-site, the badge should be collected by the Contractor and returned to the COR to be held until the employee returns to work on-site.

e. Prior to final payment, the Contractor must account for all badges issued under the Contract.

(End of clause)

USCP52.001 Order of Precedence

Any inconsistencies shall be resolved by giving precedence in the following order:

1) The USCP Statement of Work.

2) The USCP Contract.

3) The Contractor’s Proposal.

USCP52.003 Conflict of Interest

The Contractor certifies and warrants, per Attachment 1, that there is no conflict of interest, direct or indirect, financial or otherwise, which would be applicable to the performance of the obligations covered under this contract. If an allegation of a conflict of interest is brought to the attention of the USCP, the Contractor agrees to fully cooperate with any investigation of the allegation(s), and will disclose to the USCP any other contract(s) to which the Contractor is party to, public or private, or which the Contractor undertakes during performance under this contract.

USCP52.004 Changes

The Contracting Officer may at any time, by written order, make changes, within the general scope of this contract, in the manner and method of delivery of services; provided however that changes are within the Contractor's capability and in accordance with USCP Procurement Policy. If any such change causes an increase or decrease in the cost of, or the time required for, the performance of any part of the work under this contract, an adjustment shall be made in the contract price or delivery schedule, or both, and the contract shall be modified in writing accordingly. Any claim by the Contractor for adjustment under this clause must be asserted within thirty

(30) calendar days from the date of receipt by the Contractor of the notification of change; provided, however, should the Contracting Officer decide that the facts justify such action, may receive and act upon any such claim asserted at any time prior to final payment under this contract. Where the cost of property made obsolete or excess as a result of a change is included in the Contractor's claim for adjustment, the Contracting Officer shall have the right to prescribe the manner of disposition of such property. Failure to agree to any adjustment shall be a dispute concerning a question of fact within the meaning of the clause of this contract entitled "Disputes."

However, nothing in this clause shall excuse the Contractor from proceeding with the contract, as changed.

USCP52.005 Default

a. The USCP may, subject to the provisions of paragraph (c) below, by written notice of default to Contractor, terminate the whole or any part of this contract in any one of the following circumstances:

1) If Contractor fails to make delivery of the supplies or to perform the services within the time specified herein or any extension thereof; or

2) If Contractor fails to perform any of the other provisions of this contract or so fails to make progress as to endanger performance of this contract in accordance with its terms, and in either of these two circumstances does not cure such failure within a period of ten

(10) business days (or such longer period as the Contracting Officer may authorize in writing) after receipt of written notice from the Contracting Officer specifying such failure.

b. If this contract is terminated as provided in paragraph (a) of this clause, the USCP, in addition to any other rights provided in this clause, may withhold from amounts otherwise due the Contractor for such completed supplies, manufacturing materials, or services performed such sum as the Contracting Officer determines to be necessary to protect the USCP against loss because of outstanding liens or claims of former lien holders.

Document Number: TSBQ202300001 Page 16 of 32

c. If, after notice of termination of this contract under the provisions of this clause, it is determined for any reason that the Contractor was not in default under the provisions of this clause, or that the default was excusable under the provisions of this clause, the rights and obligations of the parties shall, if the contract contains a clause providing for termination for convenience of the USCP, be the same as if the notice of termination had been issued pursuant to such clause. If, after notice of termination of this contract under the provisions of this clause, it is determined for any reason that the Contractor was not in default under the provisions of this clause, and if this contract does not contain a clause providing for termination for convenience by the USCP, the contract shall be equitably adjusted to compensate for such termination and the contract modified accordingly; failure to agree to any such adjustment shall be a dispute concerning a question of fact within the meaning of the clause of this contract entitled "Disputes."

USCP52.008 Unforeseen Circumstances

The USCP realizes that circumstances may occur that are beyond the control of the USCP or the Contractor. The Contractor shall notify the COR and the Contracting Officer immediately via e-mail if any unforeseen circumstance arises that may have an impact on the contract schedule. The Contractor must take all reasonable steps to mitigate any schedule impact. When the final amount schedule impact has been determined, the Contractor will notify both the Contracting Officer and the COR in writing of the schedule changes, which must be approved in writing by the Contracting Officer.

USCP52.009 Excusable Delays

If the USCP fails to provide any material element required for performance under the contract in a timely manner, if performance is interrupted by the USCP in any manner that is not expressly or impliedly authorized by this contract, or if the USCP fails to act within the time specified in this contract or within a reasonable time, if not specified, an adjustment may be made for any costs that may have been incurred due to the delay and the due dates will be extended. The contract shall be modified in writing to reflect the changes. However, the Contractor is required to provide timely notification of any such delay to the Contracting Officer and the COR.

If the Contractor fails to provide such notification, only the period of time after receipt of notification will be considered in making adjustments to the contract. In order to receive additional payment for costs incurred due to the delay, the Contractor must be able to substantiate those costs.

USCP52.010 Gratuities

a. USCP may, by written notice to the Contractor, terminate the right of the Contractor to proceed under the Contract, if it is found after notice and hearing, by the head of the agency or a duly authorized representative, that gratuities (in the form of entertainment, gifts, or otherwise) were offered or given by the Contractor, or any agency or representative of the Contractor, to any employee of the USCP with a view towards securing a favorable treatment with respect to awarding or amending or the making of any determination with respect to the performing of such contract: provided, that the existence of the facts which the head of the agency or a duly authorized representative makes such findings shall be in issue and may be reviewed an any competent court.

USCP52.011 Option to Extend the Term of the Contract

a. The USCP may extend the term of the contract by (1) twelve (12) month period by written notice to the Contractor prior to the expiration date; provided the Government shall give the Contractor a preliminary written notice of its intent to extend at least thirty

(30) days before the contract expires. The preliminary notice does not commit the Government to an extension.

b. If the USCP exercises the option, the extended contract shall be considered to include this option clause.

c. The total duration of this contract, including the exercise of any option under this clause, shall not exceed sixty (60) months.

d. If the decision is made to extend the contract term of the contract, the Contracting Officer will execute a modification to the contract prior to contract expiration. If the USCP exercises an Option Period to extend the term of the contract, clause “F.1 - Period of Performance” will be modified accordingly to reflect the new contract expiration date and the estimated ceiling amount of the contract will be modified to reflect the increase resulting from the exercised Option Period.

USCP52.012 Option to Extend Services

Document Number: TSBQ202300001 Page 17 of 32

The Government may require continued performance of any services within the limits and at the rates specified in the contract. These rates may be adjusted only as a result of revisions to prevailing labor rates provided by the Secretary of Labor. The option provision may be exercised more than once, but the total extension of performance hereunder shall not exceed 6 months. The Contracting Officer may exercise the option by written notice to the Contractor within the period of performance.
