ZF Gears Overhaul

COMBINED SYNOPSIS / SOLICITATION

Zahnradfabrik Friedrichshafen Marine Propulsion Systems Reduction Gears Overhaul for

Fast Response Cutters (FRC) and 87’ WPBs

NOTICE FOR FILING AGENCY PROTESTS

United States Coast Guard Ombudsman Program It is the policy of the United States Coast Guard (USCG) to issue solicitations and make contract awards in a fair and timely manner. The Ombudsman Program for Agency Protests (OPAP) was established to investigate agency protest issues and resolve them without expensive and time-consuming litigation. OPAP is an independent reviewing authority that is empowered to grant a prevailing protester essentially the same relief as the Government Accountability Office (GAO).

Interested parties are encouraged to seek resolution of their concerns within the USCG as an

Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) forum rather than filing a protest with the GAO or some external forum. Interested parties may seek resolution of their concerns informally or opt to file a formal agency protest with the Contracting Officer or Ombudsman.

Informal Forum with the Ombudsman. Interested parties who believe a specific USCG procurement is unfair or otherwise defective should first direct their concerns to the applicable

Contracting Officer. If the Contracting Officer is unable to satisfy their concerns, interested parties are encouraged to contact the U.S. Coast Guard Ombudsman for Agency Protests. Under this informal process the agency is not required to suspend contract award performance. Use of an informal forum does not suspend any time requirement for filing a protest with the agency or other forum. In order to ensure a timely response, interested parties should provide the following information to the Ombudsman: solicitation/contract number, contracting office, Contracting Officer, and solicitation closing date (if applicable).

Formal Agency Protest with the Ombudsman. Prior to submitting a formal agency protest, protesters must first use their best efforts to resolve their concerns with the Contracting Officer through open and frank discussions. If the protester’s concerns are unresolved, an Independent

Review is available by the Ombudsman. The protester may file a formal agency protest to either the

Contracting Officer or as an alternative to that, the Ombudsman under the OPAP program.

Contract award or performance will be suspended during the protest period unless contract award or performance is justified, in writing, for urgent and compelling reasons or is determined in writing to be in the best interest of the Government. The agency’s goal is to resolve protests in less than 35 calendar days from the date of filing. Protests shall include the information set forth in FAR

33.103(d) (2). If the protester fails to submit the required information, resolution of the protest may be delayed or the protest may be dismissed. To be timely protests must be filed within the period specified in FAR 33.103(e). Formal protests filed under the OPAP program should be submitted electronically to OPAP@uscg.mil and the Contracting Officer or by hand delivery to the Contracting

Officer.

Election of Forum. After an interested party protests a Coast Guard procurement to the Contracting

Officer or the Ombudsman, and while the protest is pending, the protester agrees not to file a protest with the GAO or other external forum. If the protest is filed with an external forum, the agency protest will be dismissed.

The Ombudsman Hotline telephone number is 202.372.3695.

The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose quotation conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotations:

Factor I – Delivery Schedule Acceptance - The delivery schedule will be evaluated on the ability to meet or improve upon the required delivery schedule. Items are needed for inventory stock replenishment to have “A” condition items ready for issue as needed; lead-time for purchasing new gears is sixty (60) days;

the lead-time for the gear overhauls is ninety (90) days. The Technical Representative has thirty-six (36) hours to be on-site after receipt of delivery order.

Factor II – Price - The price shall be evaluated to determine fairness and reasonableness. The price shall represent the best price in response to the request for quote and shall be evaluated to determine fairness and reasonableness. Vendors are required to provide prices for all of the CLINs. The CLINs for base and all option periods are detailed in Attachment I. All prices on the CLINs shall be firm fixed-price with the cost of packaging, marking and bar-coding along with shipping, F.O.B. Destination, included in the cost of the parts. The total of all CLINs will be added together to arrive at an aggregate total.

The Government intends to evaluate quotation and award a contract on initial quote. Therefore, the initial quotation should contain the vendor’s best terms from a price standpoint and all other factors being considered. The Government reserves the right to seek information clarifying any element of a quotation prior to award.

Factor III – Warranty resolution plan (b) Ordering Periods. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all ordering periods to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the ordering period prices are significantly unbalanced.

(c) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful quoter within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer’s specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
