Clauses By Full Text

Section B B.1 Services and Prices/Costs

(a) Contractor shall provide Residential Reentry Center (RRC) services for male and female Federal offenders held under the au-thority of various United States Statutes located within the boundaries of Hennepin County, Minnesota or Ramsey County, Min-nesota. The services will be provided on an indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity type contract with firm-fixed unit prices according to the estimates outlined above.

There are two line items contained in this solicitation. Multiple sites of performance will be accepted. It is possible that both line items could be successfully addressed by a single offeror. It is also possible that the line items might be addressed by more than one offeror. If multiple awards are made, we are restricting one award per line item. If multiple awards are made under this solicitation, offenders will be placed according to the proximity of their release address and by assessing the specific programming needs of the of-fender, all at the discretion of the Residential Reentry Management Office. The estimated requirements with respect to gender are as follows:

80 percent Male 20 percent Female

*Services are required primarily for full-time resident inmate days; however, a percentage of total estimated inmate days may be used for liveout programs. The number of "Total Estimated Inmate Days" is broken down into the following categories and estimated percentages:

Fixed price per Regular Inmate days: 80 percent Home Detention Inmate days: 20 percent Furloughed Inmate days: Less than 1 percent

Offerors are advised that all usage amounts shown are estimates only. These estimates are not a representation by the Government to the offeror that the estimated quantities will be required or ordered, or that conditions affecting the requirement will be stable. These estimates do not constitute a Bureau of Prisons usage guarantee or a guarantee of revenue to the offeror. Payment shall be made for ac-tual consumption/usage.

Per diem rates for inmates placed on home detention and furlough shall be one half the full per diem rate. (In the event one half the per diem rate does not divide evenly, round the cents column down).

Pursuant to FAR 17.106-1(c) Cancellation Procedures and FAR 17.106-1(d) Cancellation Ceilings, in the event funds are not available after the first year of the base period, the Government reserves the right to cancel the contract in accordance with FAR 52.217-2, Cancellation Under Multiyear Contracts. Under such cancellation, the contractor will be compensated in accordance with FAR 52.217-2 up to the cancellation ceiling limit set forth below (excluding amounts for requirements under prior years):

Base Year 2: 50% of the non-recurring allowable costs for the remaining Base Period.

Pursuant to FAR 17.203(b), the Government’s evaluation shall be inclusive of options.

Pursuant to FAR 17.203(d), offerors may offer varying prices for options, depending on the quantities actually ordered and the dates when ordered.

(b) Services are required to be provided in accordance with Part I, Section C, the Statement of Work, with documentation as required.

Section H - Special Contract Requirements

H.1 Change in Key Personnel

Following contract award, any change in key personnel during contract performance is subject to the review and approval of the Community Corrections Manager. The Contractor shall submit evidence that the qualifications of the prospective replacement per-sonnel are equal to or greater than personnel vacating the positions. Such requests for review and approval shall be in writing.

H.2 Contract Performance

(a) Any request to alter the facility following contract award must provide evidence supporting the contractor's right to use the proposed facility. Acceptable evidence of right to use is limited to deeds, leases, bills of sale, options to lease, options to buy, contin-gency leases or contingency deeds.

(b) Offerors shall submit proof that the local law enforcement agency with primary justification (e.g., Chief of Police, Sheriff) and at least two levels of local government officials (e.g., City Council Member, Mayor, County Board Member, City Commissioner) have been notified of their intent to change facility location. The notification will identify the specific location of the new facility.

The proof shall be a signed copy of each notification* sent via registered or certified mail to the Chief Executive Officer of the law enforcement agency and two levels of public officials of the geographical area in which the new facility is located. The notification shall provide an accurate description of the program services the contractor provides under their contract to include, but not limited to, the contractor's mission statement; the size of the new facility; the specific address location of the new facility; the type of offender the Statement of Work indicates will be placed at the new facility; and the contractor's inmate accountability practices.

*[The offerors shall use the mandatory Sample Community Notification Letter in Section J, Attachment 4, when notifying the above-mentioned officials.]

(c) Subsequent to award the contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer's Technical Representative (COTR) advising of any request to change facility locations. The Bureau of Prisons will inspect the contractor's place of performance to ensure compliance with the Safety and Sanitation requirements of the Statement of Work. The contractor will be advised of identified areas of non-compliance and will be required to correct the non-compliant areas in accordance with the Statement of Work and reasonable guidance provided by the COTR. If the place of performance is not in compliance by the established performance date, the contract may be terminated for default.

(d) The contractor, when requesting a change in performance location, is required to provide proof of zoning. This proof shall be provided with the initial request to change locations.

(e) The initial request to change performance sites will be made to the COTR. The request shall be in writing and accompanied by the following documentation: (1) proof of right to use; (2) proof of zoning; (3) proof of law enforcement/ geopolitical notification; and (4) evidence that the Bureau of Prisons will receive some benefit for modifying the contract to change the place of performance.

The Contracting Officer, with the assistance of Legal Counsel and the COTR, shall determine whether substantial evidence of proper zoning and other ordinance or regulatory compliance has been provided by the Contractor.

The contractor's failure to provide satisfactory proof may result in termination of the contract for default.

For purposes of this provision, a "necessary local official" means an employed or elected person whose opinion, approval, or con-currence as to the propriety of the use of proposed sites is required under any and all applicable laws of the city, town, village, or municipality in which the RRC is to be located.

H.3 Protected Religious Activities

Protected Religious Activities. Religious exercise can come up in Residential Reentry Centers (RRC's) in a variety of ways and is governed by the Department's regulation guaranteeing "Equal Treatment For Faith-Based Organizations" [28 CFR 38.1(b)], as well as by federal constitutional and statutory law.

(1) An offender may ask for a time and place to individually pray, study, or worship. Federal law requires that a federally-funded Contractor allow offenders in an RRC reasonably frequent opportunity to engage on their own in these "inherently religious activit-ies" throughout the week.

(2) An offender may ask an RRC staff to lead or join him or her in inherently religious activity. If an offender in an RRC makes such a request, Contractor staff may accommodate the request when such activity would not interfere with the contracted services, RFP-200-1192-NC Page 13 of 39 when the religious activity occurs in a separate time or location from the services provided under the contract and if attendance or par-ticipation by offenders and staff is voluntary. A separate location does not need to be a separate building but must be an area that, at the time of religious activity, is not being used to provide services under the contract and is not otherwise open to the offender popula-tion.

(3) An RRC Contractor may offer inherently religious services to offenders outside of, and in addition to, its contract with the Gov-ernment as long as the services are offered in a separate time or location (as defined above in paragraph 2) from the services provided under the contract and if attendance or participation by offenders is voluntary. For example, the BOP permits-but would not reim-burse a contractor to provide offenders with a chaplain to assist offenders who request spiritual counsel, prayer, instruction from a sac-red text, or the opportunity to worship. Unless specifically requested in the solicitation, such services should not be included as part of a proposal and will not be considered in the evaluation process.

In order to be compliant with HSPD-12/PIV I, the following investigative requirements must be met for each new long-term 2 contractor employee whose background investigation (BI) process begins on or after October 27, 2005:

a. Contractor Personnel must present two forms of identification in original form prior to badge issuance (acceptable documents are listed in Form I-9, OMB No. 1615-0047, "Employment Eligibility Verification," and at least one document must be a valid State or Federal government-issued picture ID);

b. Contractor Personnel must appear in person at least once before a DOJ official who is responsible for checking the identification documents. This identity proofing must be completed sometime during the clearance process but prior to badge issuance and must be documented by the DOJ official;

c. Contractor Personnel must undergo a BI commensurate with the designated risk level associated with the duties of each position.

Outlined below are the minimum BI requirements for each risk level:

• High Risk -Background Investigation (5 year scope)

• Moderate Risk -Limited Background Investigation (LBI) or Minimum Background Investigation (MBI)

• Low Risk -National Agency Check with Inquiries (NACI) investigation

d. The preappointment BI waiver requirements for all position sensitivity levels are a: 1) Favorable review of the security question-naire form; 2) Favorable fingerprint results; 3) Favorable credit report, if required;3 4) Waiver request memorandum, including both the Office of Personnel Management schedule date and position sensitivity/risk level; and 5) Favorable review of the National Agency Check (NAC) 4 portion of the applicable BI that is determined by position sensitivity/risk level.

A badge may be issued following approval of the above waiver requirements. If the NAC is not received within five days of OPM's scheduling date, the badge can be issued based on a favorable review of the Security Questionnaire and the Federal Bureau of In-vestigation Criminal History Check (i.e., fingerprint check results).

e. Badge revalidation will occur once the investigation is completed and favorably adjudicated. If the BI results so justify, badges is-sued under these procedures will be suspended or revoked.

2. Short-Term Contractor Personnel: It is the policy of the DOJ that short-term contractors having access to DOJ information systems and/or DOJ facilities or space for six months or fewer are subject to the identity proofing requirements listed in items 1a. and 1b.

RFP-200-1192-NC Page 17 of 39 above. The preappointment waiver re-quirements for short-term contractors are:

a. Favorable review of the security questionnaire form; b. Favorable fingerprint results; c. Favorable credit report, if required;5 and d.

Waiver request memorandum indicating both the position sensitivity/risk level and the duration of the appointment. The commen-surate BI does not need to be initiated.

A badge may be issued following approval of the above waiver requirements and the badge will expire six months from the date of issuance. This process can only be used once for a short-term contractor in a twelve month period. This will ensure that any consecut-ive short-term appointments are subject to the full PIV-I identity proofing process.

For example, if a contractor employee requires daily access for a three or four-week period, this contractor would be cleared according to the above short-term requirements. However, if a second request is submitted for the same contractor employee within a twelve-month period for the purpose of extending the initial contract or for employment under a totally different contract for another three or four week period, this contractor would now be considered "long-term" and must be cleared according to the long-term re-quirements as stated in this interim policy.

3. Intermittent Contractors: An exception to the above-mentioned short-term requirements would be intermittent contractors.

a. For purposes of this policy, "intermittent" is defined as those contractor employees needing access to DOJ information systems and/ or DOJ facilities or space for a maximum of one day per week, regardless of the duration of the required intermittent access. For example, the water delivery contractor that delivers water one time each week and is working on a one-year contract.

b. Contractors requiring intermittent access should follow the Department's escort policy. Please reference the August 11, 2004, and January 29, 2001, Department Security Officer policy memoranda that conveys the requirements for contractor facility escorted ac-cess.

c. Due to extenuating circumstances, if a component requests unescorted access or DOJ IT system access for an intermittent con-tractor, the same pre-employment background investigation waiver requirements that apply to short-term contractors are required.

d. If an intermittent contractor is approved for unescorted access, the contractor will only be issued a daily badge. The daily badge will be issued upon entrance into a DOJ facility or space and must be returned upon exiting the same facility or space.

e. If an intermittent contractor is approved for unescorted access, the approval will not exceed one year. If the intermittent contractor requires unescorted access beyond one year, the contractor will need to be reapproved each year.

4. An individual transferring from another department or agency shall not be readjudicated provided the individual has a current (within the last five years), favorably adjudicated BI meeting HSPD-12 and DOJ's BI requirements.

5. The DOJ's current escorted contractor policy remains unchanged by this acquisition notice.

Notes:

1. FIPS 201 is available at: www.csrc.nist.gov/publications/fips/fips201/FIPS-201-022505.pdf

2. Under HSPD-12, long-term contractors are contractors having access to DOJ information systems and/or DOJ facilities or space for six months or longer. The PIV-I identity proofing process, including initiation and adjudication of the required background invest-igation, is required for all new long-term contractors regardless of whether it is the current practice to issue a badge. The second phase of HSPD-12 implementation (PIV-II) requires badge issuance to all affected long-term contractors.

3. For contractors in position sensitivity/risk levels above level 1, a favorable review of a credit check is required as part of the preappointment waiver package.

4. In order to avoid a delay in the hiring process, components should request an Advance NAC Report when initiating in-vestigations to OPM. Per OPM ' s instructions, to obtain an Advance NAC Report, a Code " 3" must be placed in block " B " of the " Agency Use Only " section of the investigative form. This report is available for all case types.

5.For contractors in position sensitivity/risk levels above level 1, a favorable review of a credit check is required as part of the pre-appointment waiver package.
