Contracting Officer (CO):

The CO is responsible for:

1) Negotiation and award of orders, contracts, or agreements: COs have full authority to legally bind their organization within their designated warrant level.

d. Making final decisions regarding any recommended rejection of deliverables.

3) The COR also provides technical direction to the Contractor, i.e., shifting work emphasis between areas of work, fills in details, or otherwise serves to accomplish the purposes of this effort. Technical direction shall be within the general scope of this effort. The COR does NOT have the authority to issue any technical direction that:

a. Constitutes an assignment of work outside the general scope of this effort;

b. Constitutes a change as defined in the “Changes” clause (See FAR 52.243);

c. In any way causes an increase or decrease in cost or the time required for performance;

a. Monitor the Contractor’s technical progress, including surveillance and assessment of performance, and recommend to the CO any changes in the requirement;

b. Assist the Contractor in the resolution of technical problems encountered during performance;

c. Perform inspection and acceptance or recommendation for rejection of Contractor deliverables and identify deficiencies in delivered items. This does not replace any other quality assurance inspection requirements that are specified elsewhere within the order, contract, or agreement;

and

2. ORDER TYPE

The Government contemplates award of a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Purchase Order in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1).

The resulting Purchase Order will be administered by the Procurement and Contracts Management Division (PCMD). PCMD is the only procurement activity authorized to approve changes or modify any of the requirements contained within the Order.

4. INVOICE REQUIREMENTS [DEC 2015] (Deviation DEC 2025) The Contractor shall submit invoices via the Invoice Processing Platform (IPP) at www.ipp.gov for the supplies delivered or services rendered. A copy (PDF version) shall also be submitted via email to the designated COR and CO/CS.

Invoice Description To constitute a proper invoice, the invoice must include the following information and/or documentation:

• Contract or order number, or other authorization for delivery of property or services;

• Description, price, and quantity of supplies/services actually delivered or service rendered for each item billed;

• Shipping and payment terms;

• Name (where practicable, title, phone number, and complete mailing address of responsible official to whom payment is to be sent). The “remit to” address must correspond to the remittance address in the order, contract, or agreement; and

Payment shall only be made once delivery occurs or services are rendered, in accordance with the Solicitation and Contract Terms and Conditions.

Electronic Submission of Payment Requests The Invoice Processing Platform (IPP) is a secure web-based electronic invoicing and payment information service available to all Federal agencies and their supplier by the U.S. Treasury's Financial Management Service. The IPP allows Federal agencies and their suppliers to exchange electronic contracts, purchase and task orders, blanket purchase agreements, invoices, and payment information in one easy to access web portal.

This service is free of charge to Government agencies and their suppliers, including services and support.

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause-

(1) “Payment request” means a bill, voucher, invoice, or request for contract financing payment with associated supporting documentation. The payment request must comply with the requirements identified in FAR 32.905(b), “Content of Invoices” and the applicable Invoicing clause included in this contract, order, or http://www.ipp.gov/ agreement.

(b) Except as provided in paragraph (c) of this clause, the Contractor shall submit payment requests electronically using the IPP. Information regarding IPP is available at www.ipp.gov.

In accordance with FAR 52.212-4 Section (i)(5) Overpayments, Accounts Receivable Conversion of Check Payments to Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT): If the Contractor sends the Government a check to remedy duplicate contract financing or an overpayment by the Government, it will be converted into an EFT. This means the Government will copy the check and use the account information on it to electronically debit the Contractor’s account for the amount of the check. The debit from the Contractor’s account will usually occur within 24 hours and will be shown on the regular account statement.

The Contractor will not receive the original check back. The Government will destroy the Contractor’s original check, but will keep a copy of it. If the EFT cannot be processed for technical reasons, the Contractor authorizes the Government to process the copy in place of the original check.

EOP STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Statement on EOP Special Terms and Conditions [FEB 2014] The following EOP specific clauses shall apply to the order, contract, or agreement resulting from this solicitation. These terms and conditions flow down to any Subcontractors.

E1. RESTRICTION AGAINST DISCLOSURE [FEB 2014]

The contractor agrees, in the performance of this order, contract, or agreement to keep the information contained in the source documents, or otherwise furnished by the EOP, in the strictest confidence, said information being the sole property of the EOP. The contractor also agrees not to publish, reproduce or otherwise divulge such information, in whole or in part, in any manner or form, nor authorize or permit others to do so, taking reasonable measures to restrict access to the information while in his or her possession to those employees who must have the information to perform work on the order, contract, or agreement (i.e., a “need-to-know” basis). The contractor agrees to immediately notify the contracting officer (CO) in writing in the event the contractor determines, or has reason to suspect, a breach of confidentiality. The contractor is responsible for ensuring all employees involved in the performance of this order, contract or agreement sign a “Non-Disclosure Agreement” that is attached. The contractor shall provide a signed agreement to the CO prior to each employee beginning work.

EOP retains full legal control over any information and records submitted by it to the contractor and may, to the extent permitted by law, modify such information or request that it be withdrawn from the contractor’s files and systems. Such information, to the extent permitted by law, shall not become part of contractor records. If the contractor receives a request for EOP information, or a request to which EOP information would be responsive, the contractor shall not provide EOP information in response to the request and shall instead refer the request to EOP. EOP will address the request in accordance with applicable law. Requests included within this paragraph include, but are not limited to, Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, Congressional requests and litigation-related requests. Any such request shall be sent in writing to the Office of Administration, Office of General Counsel through the CO.

All information regarding the procedures developed under this order, contract, or agreement must be regarded as sensitive information by the contractor and not to be disclosed to anyone outside the contractor's organization without the written permission of the CO.

E2. PROHIBITION OF ADVERTISING OF AWARD [OCT 2021]

(a) Contractor shall not, in any form of advertising or promotion, regardless of format, reproduce or use the image of The White House or any other image of the EOP or any EOP component. This includes images of official seals and buildings as well as any images or photographs relating to the Contract or work performed under the Contract, whether for goods or services. This paragraph (a) is derived from statute, regulation, or Executive Order, and the EOP will ordinarily not have any authority to deviate from these statutes, regulations, or Executive Orders.

(b) Contractor shall not, in any form of advertising or promotion, regardless of format, state, imply, or infer in any manner that the products or services provided by Contractor are endorsed, preferred, or considered superior by the White House, the EOP, or any EOP component, to any products or services provided by others.

This paragraph (b) is derived from ethics requirements, and the EOP will ordinarily not have any authority to deviate from these requirements.

(c) The Contractor shall strictly comply with all requirements of paragraphs (a) and (b) and the CO has no authority or discretion whatsoever to waive these requirements.

(d) Contractor may identify the White House, the EOP, or any EOP component as a customer of the Contractor under this Contract provided that the entry is not given any more significant prominence than that of any other customer of the Contractor.

(e) This clause shall not prevent Contractor from requesting that EOP serve as a past performance reference in Contractor’s proposal responses to other federal, state, or local government request- for-proposal (RFP) responses only, for work which may be the same or similar to that already performed for the EOP.

(g) This Clause shall survive any termination or expiration of the Contract.

E3. POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST [FEB 2014]

(a) The contractor shall inform the contracting officer (CO) whether or not, to the best of its knowledge and belief, it has or does not have any organizational or personal conflicts of interest as defined below:

In accordance with FAR Part 2, Definitions, “Organizational conflict of interest” means that because of other activities or relationships with other persons, a person is unable or potentially unable to render impartial assistance or advice to the Government, or the person’s objectivity in performing the contract work is or might be otherwise impaired, or a person has an unfair competitive advantage.

In accordance with FAR Subpart 9.502, an organizational conflict of interest may result when factors create an actual or potential conflict of interest on an instant contract, or when the nature of the work to be performed on the instant contract creates an actual or potential conflict of interest on a future acquisition. In the latter case, some restrictions on future activities of the contractor may be required.

(b) If the contractor discovers an organizational conflict of interest with respect to this order, contract, or agreement prior to award, the contractor shall immediately notify the CO in writing and provide its plan to mitigate the conflict. Personal conflicts of interest will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis by the CO.

Depending on the severity of the conflict, alternative staff may be appointed to work on the requirement. If that solution does not remove the conflict or the appearance of conflict of interest, the contractor may be excused by the Government from participation in the requirement.

(c) The contractor agrees that if, after award, it discovers or creates an organizational or personal conflict of interest with respect to the order, contract, or agreement, it shall make an immediate and full disclosure in writing to the CO and Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR), which shall include a description of the action the contractor has taken or proposes to take to avoid, eliminate or neutralize the conflict. The Government may, however, terminate the order, contract, or agreement for the convenience of the Government.

(d) In the event that the contractor was aware of the organizational or personal conflict of interest prior to the award of the order, contract, or agreement and intentionally did not disclose the conflict to the CO, the Government may terminate the order, contract, or agreement at no cost to the Government and demand payment of any out-of-pocket costs, including costs associated with reissuance of the order, contract, or agreement.

(e) The contractor shall also inform the CO and COR of any business or other relationships which create a potential conflict of interest or which might present an appearance of a conflict of interest on the part of the contractor or the contractor’s employees, including all instances in which a former or existing client of the contractor is or is likely to become the subject of a lawsuit. In addition, the contractor must agree that any information provided to the contractor in the course of the requirement is confidential and cannot be used for financial gain.

E4. LIMITED USE OF DATA [FEB 2014]

Performance of this requirement may require the contractor to access and use data and information proprietary to the Government which is of such a nature that its dissemination or use, other than in performance of this effort, would be adverse to the interests of the Government.

Contractor and/or contractor personnel shall not divulge or release data or information developed or obtained in performance of this effort until made public by the Government, except to authorized Government personnel or upon written approval by the contracting officer (CO). The contractor shall not use, disclose, or reproduce proprietary data that bears a restrictive legend, other than as required in the performance of this effort. Nothing herein shall preclude the use of any data independently acquired by the contractor without such limitations or prohibit an agreement at no cost to the Government between the contractor and the data owner which provides for greater rights to the contractor.

Contractor shall release all required deliverables and data or other works developed under this order, contract, or agreement solely in accordance with the EOP terms and conditions. All data collected and remaining in the custody of the contractor at the close of any order, contract, or agreement shall be delivered to the contracting officer’s representative or destroyed in accordance with the terms of the order, contract, or agreement. No copies or parts of data derivative files (encrypted and/or individually identifiable) shall be kept by the contractor.

E5. PAYMENT FOR UNAUTHORIZED SUPPLIES OR SERVICES [FEB 2014]

No payments shall be made for any unauthorized supplies and/or services or for any unauthorized changes to the work specified herein. This includes any services performed by the contractor of its own volition or at the request of an individual other than a duly appointed contracting officer (CO).

E6. INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE [FEB 2014]

E6.1 Place of Inspection and Acceptance

Inspection and acceptance of the products or services to be furnished hereunder shall be made by the appropriate COR, or other authorized representative designated in the order, contract or agreement.

E6.2 Scope of Inspection All deliverables will be inspected for content, completeness, accuracy and conformance to order, contract or agreement requirements by the COR, or other authorized representative designated in the order, contract or agreement. Inspection may include validation of information or inspection of the deliverables, as specified in the order, contract or agreement. The scope and nature of this inspection will be sufficiently comprehensive to ensure the completeness, quality and adequacy of all deliverables.

E6.3 Basis of Acceptance The basis for acceptance will be in compliance with best commercial practices and those requirements provided in the order, contract or agreement.

Support products and travel will be accepted upon receipt of proper documentation.

Reports, documents and narrative type deliverables will be accepted when all discrepancies, errors or other deficiencies identified in writing by the Government have been corrected.

E6.4 Non-Conforming Products or Services Unless specified otherwise in the orders or contracts, non-conforming products or services will be rejected.

Deficiencies will be corrected, by the contractor, within three workdays of the rejection notice or as time constraints deem necessary. If the deficiencies cannot be corrected within three workdays, the contractor shall immediately notify the COR, or other authorized representatives designated in each order, contract, or agreement of the delay and provide a proposed corrective action plan within three workdays or as time to conform dictates more urgent action.
