The Contractor is required to furnish all labor, tools, materials, services, equipment, transportation, insurance, bonds, security notifications, submittals, supervision, licenses, permits, state sales taxes and fees in accordance with applicable federal, state, and local regulatory requirements, for the replacement of the control room ramp railings at the Seattle Air Route Traffic Control Center (ARTCC) located at 3101 Auburn Way S, Auburn, Washington 98092, in accordance with the Statement of Work, contract clauses, and applicable wage rates.

CONTRACT LINE ITEM DESCRIPTION TOTAL

0001 Lump Sum Price $_____________________

The offered price must include all costs related to (a) direct and indirect labor, fringe benefits, overhead, G&A expenses, profit, material, equipment, other direct costs, insurance, freight, transportation, inspections, testing, operation and maintenance manuals, warranties, etc., (b) federal, state, and local taxes, (c) all applicable fees, permits, licenses, and (d) any miscellaneous charges.

Effective April 1, 1996, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) began operating under the new FAA Acquisition Management System (AMS). The 1996 DOT Appropriation Act, Public Law 104-50, mandated that the FAA rewrite its acquisition regulations and granted legislative relief from certain laws. The Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR), Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act of 1994, Small Business Act, and Competition in Contracting Act, are four of these laws.

(End of clause)

B002 PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE

From contract award, the FAA estimates the following timelines:

4 weeks for submittals, including submission, review, and approval

2 weeks for onsite physical work, any required punchlist items, and cleanup

4 weeks for all required closeout documents

Total contract timeframe expected is approximately ten (10) weeks.

(End of Clause)

B003 ESTIMATED SIZE OF CONSTRUCTION PROJECT

ESTIMATED PRICE RANGE FOR THIS PROJECT IS: UNDER $100,000.

(End of Clause)

B004 BUY AMERICAN GUIDANCE

FAA’s acquisitions are subject to the requirements of both the Buy American Act (41 U.S.C. 8301-8305)(BAA) and the FAA’s Buy American Preference (49 U.S.C. 50101)(BAP). The BAA applies across the Federal Government, while the BAP is specific to the FAA. The BAA and BAP have overlapping statutory authority in that both cover the acquisition of manufactured goods, but each subjects the acquisition to different rules and requirements. When determining whether to apply BAA or BAP to a given acquisition, the FAA looks at (1) what is being acquired, and

(2) how the acquisition is being funded and the purpose of the acquisition. Most FAA procurements fall under the authority of the BAP, unless specifically exempted.

This contract is subject to FAA’s Buy American Preference (49 U.S.C. 50101)(BAP), which is specific to the FAA and has different requirements than the Buy American Act (41 U.S.C. 8301-8305)(BAA), which does not apply to this contract. Please review contract clause 3.6.4-5 FAA Buy American Preference – Steel and Manufactured Goods, located in Section I - Contract Clauses, to ensure that you (the offeror) and your subcontractors and/or suppliers and manufacturers understand BAP requirements. Should any end product be of foreign origin, the Contractor must identify, in writing, such goods and country of origin to the Contracting Officer prior to contract award.

(End of Clause)

B005 SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS

This air traffic facility is a secured facility that requires daily entry through security. Entrance into the facility requires all unbadged individuals to go through the security building and obtain a visitor pass for that day. This process may take anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes depending on the number of workers requiring entry.

3.1.9-1 ELECTRONIC COMMERCE AND SIGNATURE (JUL 2020)

(a) The Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-SIGN) establishes a legal equivalence between:

(1) Contracts written on paper and contracts in electronic form;

(2) Pen-and-ink signatures and electronic signatures; and

(3) Other legally-required written records and the same information in electronic form.

(b) With the submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges and accepts the utilization of electronic commerce as part of the requirements of this solicitation and the resultant contract.

(c) Certain documents may need to be provided or maintained in original form, such as large-scale drawings impractical to convert to electronic format or a document with a raised seal signifying authenticity. This clause does not change or affect any other requirements that a document must be in paper format to satisfy legal requirements such as for certain real estate transactions.

(d) The use of electronic signature technology is authorized under this solicitation and the resulting contract.

(e) Contractors must not digitally sign any documents with software that uses the Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA- 1). All digitally signed documents and contracts sent to the FAA must use a SHA-256 or higher hash algorithm. This is based on the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Policy Statement on Hash Functions dated August 5, 2015. Further guidance on the use of SHA-256 is in NIST Special Publication (SP) 800-57 Part 1, section

5.6.2 as amended and SP 800-131A, Revision 1 dated November 6, 2015. Additional guidance on the use of SHA-3 is in NIST SP 800-185 as amended.

(f) Contractors do not have to update documents previously digitally signed using SHA-1 hash algorithms unless the document requires updating. The FAA and contractors may continue to use SHA-1 for the following applications:

Verifying old digital signatures and time stamps, generating and verifying hash-based message authentication codes (HMACs), key derivation functions (KDFs), and random bit/number generation.

(End of Clause)

(c) No diversion will be made by the Contractor without the written consent of the Contracting Officer.

(d) The key personnel and/or facilities under this contract are:

Project Manager [ ] Superintendent [ ]

(List key personnel and/or facilities)

(End of clause)

H001 APPLICABLE MINIMUM HOURLY WAGE RATES

The wage determination decision of the Secretary of Labor in this contract specifies the minimum hourly rate of wages which must be paid to the laborers and mechanics employed or work at the job site. The rates have been determined by the Secretary of Labor in accordance with the provisions of the Davis Bacon Act, as amended, to be prevailing rates for the corresponding classes of laborers employed on contracts of a similar character in the locality where the work is performed.

While the wage rates given in the decision are the MINIMUM rates required to be paid during the life of the contract, it is the responsibility of offerors to inform themselves as to local labor conditions, such as the prevailing wage rates, the length of the work day and work week, overtime compensation, fringe benefits payments, available labor supply, and prospective changes or adjustments to wage rates. The contractor must abide by and conform to all applicable laws, Executive Orders, and rules, regulations, and orders of the Secretary of Labor. No increase in contract price will be allowed or authorized for the payment of wage rates in excess of those listed in the contract wage determination decision.

The wage determination decision of the Secretary of Labor in this contract is solely for the purpose of setting for the minimum hourly wage rates required to be paid during the life of the contract and is not to be accepted as a guarantee, warranty, or representation of the wage rates indicated.

NOTE: THE DAVIS BACON ACT IS APPLICABLE (SEE CONTRACT CLAUSES). REFERENCE THE

ATTACHED GENERAL WAGE DECISION NO. WA20230011, dated 02/03/2023, FOR THE STATE OF

WASHINGTON (SEE SECTION “J”). THE WAGE DETERMINATION IS HEREBY INCORPORATED INTO

(End of clause)

3.3.1-33 SYSTEM FOR AWARD MANAGEMENT (APR 2022)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause

"Registered in the SAM database" means that the Contractor has entered all mandatory information, including the Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) or the Electronic Funds Transfer indicator, into the SAM database.

"System for Award Management (SAM) database" means the primary Government repository for Contractor information required for the conduct of business with the Government.

"Unique Entity Identifier (UEI)" (also known as the Unique Entity ID) means a number or other identifier used to identify a specific commercial, nonprofit, or Government entity. See www.sam.gov for the designated entity for establishing unique entity identifiers.

"Electronic Funds Transfer indicator" means a 4-character suffix to the Unique Entity Identifier. This 4-character suffix may be assigned at the discretion of the business concern to establish additional SAM records for identifying alternative Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) accounts for the same parent concern.

(b)(1) By submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges the requirement that a prospective awardee must be registered in the SAM database prior to award, during performance, and through final payment of any contract, basic agreement, basic ordering agreement, or blanket purchasing agreement resulting from this solicitation.

(2) The offeror must enter, in Representations, Certifications and Other Statements of Offerors Section of the solicitation, the UEI or EFT indicator that identifies the offeror's name and address exactly as stated in the offer. The UEI will be used by the Contracting Officer to verify that the offeror is registered in the SAM database.

(c) If the offeror does not have a UEI, it should contact www.sam.gov directly to obtain one.

The offeror should be prepared to provide the following information:

(1) Company legal business name.

(2) Tradestyle, doing business, or other name by which your entity is commonly recognized.

(3) Company Physical Street Address, City, State, and ZIP Code.

(4) Company Mailing Address, City, State and ZIP Code (if different from physical street address).

(5) Company Telephone Number.

(6) Date the company was started.

(7) Number of employees at your location.

(8) Chief executive officer/key manager.

(9) Line of business (industry).

(10) Company Headquarters name and address (reporting relationship within your entity).

(d) If the offeror does not become registered in the SAM database in the time prescribed by the Contracting Officer, the Contracting Officer may proceed to award to the next otherwise successful registered offeror.

(e) Processing time should be taken into consideration when registering. Offerors who are not registered should consider applying for registration immediately upon receipt of this solicitation.

(f) The Contractor is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the data within the SAM database, and for any liability resulting from the Government's reliance on inaccurate or incomplete data. To remain registered in the SAM database after the initial registration, the Contractor is required to review and update on an annual basis from the date of initial registration or subsequent updates its information in the SAM database to ensure it is current, accurate and complete. Updating information in the SAM does not alter the terms and conditions of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed contractual document. If registered in SAM as a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), by submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges that they are designated as a SDVOSB by the Department of Veterans Affairs, and this designation appears as such on the Veteran Affairs website, https://vetbiz.va.gov/vip//.

(g)(1)(i) If a Contractor has legally changed its business name, "doing business as" name, or division name (whichever is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets used in performing the contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements regarding novation and change-of-name agreements in AMS Procurement Guidance, the Contractor must provide the responsible Contracting Officer a minimum of one business day's written notification of its intention to:

(A) Change the name in the SAM database;

(B) Comply with the requirements of AMS regarding novation and change-of-name agreements; and

(C) Agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the responsible Contracting Officer. The Contractor must provide the Contracting Officer with the notification, sufficient documentation to support the legally changed name.

(ii) If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (g)(1)(i) of this clause, or fails to perform the agreement at paragraph (g)(1)(i)(C) of this clause, and, in the absence of a properly executed novation or change-of-name agreement, the SAM information that shows the Contractor to be other than the Contractor indicated in the contract will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the "Suspension of Payment" paragraph of the electronic funds transfer (EFT) clause of this contract.

(2) The Contractor must not change the name or address for EFT payments or manual payments, as appropriate, in the SAM record to reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims. Assignees must be separately registered in the SAM database. Information provided to the Contractor's SAM record that indicates payments, including those made by EFT, to an ultimate recipient other than that Contractor will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the "Suspension of payment" paragraph of the EFT clause of this contract.

Goals for minority participation: 7.2% Goals for female participation: 6.9% (Contracting Officer insert goals)

Compliance with the goals will be measured against the total work hours performed.

(d) The Contractor must provide written notification to the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) area office within 10 working days following award of any construction subcontract in excess of $10,000 at any tier for construction work under the contract resulting from this screening information request.

(3) Develop on-the-job training opportunities and/or participate in training programs for the area that expressly include minorities and women, including upgrading programs and apprenticeship and trainee programs relevant to the Contractor's employment needs, especially those programs funded or approved by the Department of Labor. The Contractor must provide notice of these programs to the sources compiled under subparagraph (f)(2) above.

(4) Review, at least annually, the Contractor's equal employment policy and affirmative action obligations with all employees having responsibility for hiring, assignment, layoff, termination, or other employment decisions. Conduct reviews of this policy with all on-site supervision, personnel prior to initiation of construction work at a job site.

(h) A single goal for minorities and a separate single goal for women must be established. The Contractor is required to provide equal employment opportunity and to take affirmative action for all minority groups, both male and female, and all women, both minority and non-minority.
