TERMS AMD CONDITIONS
RFQ-5476
In accordance with FAR 12.302(d) the following addenda shall be included into this solicitation as part of FAR 52.212-4 Contract Terms and Conditions – Commercial Items (Jan 2017):
DISCLOSURE OF DATA UNDER FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA)
If a request for information contained in a quote is requested under the FOIA, the Government shall have the right to disclose any information or data contained in a quote that results in a contract to the extent provided under the FOIA, notwithstanding any restrictive legends that may have been placed upon it in accordance with the provision at Far 52.2151 (e),"Instructions to Offerors Competitive Acquisitions". The Government will, before disclosure, make an administrative determination on a casebycase basis as to whether the information requested is exempt from disclosure by one of the established exceptions to the ACT. In making this determination the procedures outlined in 28 CFR, paragraph 16.7 shall be followed which, in part, affords the submitted of a quote an opportunity to object to disclosure.
ORGANIZATIONAL CONFLICTS OF INTERESTS - GENERAL
(a) The Contractor warrants that, to the best of his knowledge and belief, and except as otherwise set forth in this contract, he does not have any organizational conflict of interest as defined in paragraph (b) below.
(b) The term "organizational conflict of interest" means a situation where a Contractor has interest, either due to its other activities or its relationship with other organizations, which place it in a position that may be unsatisfactory or unfavorable (1) from the Government's standpoint in being able to secure impartial, technically sound, objective assistance and advise from the Contractor, or in securing the advantages of adequate competition in its procurement; or (2) from industry's standpoint in that unfair competitive advantages may accrue to the Contractor in question.
(c) The Contractor agrees that, if after award he discovers an organizational conflict of interest with respect to this contract, he shall make an immediate and full disclosure in writing to the Contracting Officer which shall include a description of the action which the Contractor has taken or proposes to take to avoid, eliminate or neutralize the conflict. The Government may, however, terminate the contract for the convenience of the Government.
(d) In the event that the Contractor was aware of an organization conflict of interest prior to the award of this contract and intentionally did not disclose the conflict to the Contracting Officer, the Government may terminate the contract at no cost to the Government.
INDEMNIFICATION
(a) Responsibility for Government Property
The Contractor assumes full responsibility for and shall indemnify the Government against any and all losses or damage of whatsoever kind and nature to any and all Government property, including any equipment, supplies, accessories, or parts furnished, while in his custody and care for storage, repairs, or service to be performed under the terms of this contract, resulting in whole or in part from the negligent acts or omissions of the Contractor, any subcontractor, or any employee, agent or representative of the Contractor or subcontractor.
If due to the fault, negligent acts (whether of commission or omission) and/or dishonesty of the Contractor or its employees, any Government owned or controlled property is lost or damaged as a result of the Contractor's performance of this contract, the Contractor shall be responsible to the Government for such loss or damage, and the Government, at its option, may in lieu of payment thereof, require the Contractor to replace at this own expense, all property lost or damaged.
(b) Hold Harmless Indemnification Agreement
The Contractor shall save and hold harmless and indemnify the Government against any and all liability claims, and cost of whatsoever kind and nature for injury to or death of any person or persons and for loss or damage to any Contractor property or property owned by a third party occurring in connection with or in any way incident to or arising out of the occupancy, use, service, operation, or performance of work under the terms of this contract, resulting in whole or in part from the acts or omissions of the Contractor, any subcontractor, or any employee, agent, or representative of the Contractor or subcontractor.
GOVERNMENT’S RIGHT OF RECOVERY
Nothing in the above paragraphs shall be considered to preclude the Government from receiving the benefits of any insurance the Contractor may carry which provided for the indemnification of any loss or destruction of, or damages to property in the custody and care of the Contractor where such loss, destruction or damage is to Government property. The Contractor shall do nothing to prejudice the Government's right to recover against third parties for any loss, destruction of, or damage to Government property, and upon the request of the Contracting Officer shall, at the Government's expense, furnish to the Government all reasonable assistance and cooperation (including assistance in the prosecution of suit and the execution of instruments of assignment in favor of the Government) in obtaining recovery.
GOVERNMENT LIABILITY
The Government shall not be liable for any injury to the Contractor's personnel or damage to the Contractor's property unless such injury or damage is due to negligence on the part of the Government and is recoverable under the Federal Torts Claims Act, or pursuant to other Federal statutory authority.
CLAIMS
The Government shall not be liable for any cost incurred by the Contractor, any subcontractor, or any contract employee, in the furnishing of required security information, or in complying with the FBI's security requirements during the entire term of the contract.
The Contractor agrees that no claim may be filed for Delay of Work due to any Contractor, his subcontractors, or any employees thereof, failing to comply with the FBI's security requirements.
ANNOUNCEMENT OF PROJECT
The Contractor is expressly forbidden from notifying any outside party of any details concerning any project on which the Contractor is providing any service to the FBI as a result of this contract, without the expressed written approval of the FBI Contracting Officer. The Contractor shall ensure that this clause is incorporated in agreements reached with any subcontractors, consultants, agents, or representative employed by the Contractor in contract performance or otherwise.
NOTICE TO THE GOVERNMENT OF DELAYS
In the event the Contractor encounters difficulty in meeting the individual task deadline set by the FBI, or whenever the Contractor has knowledge that any actual or potential situation is delaying or threatens to delay the timely performance of an assignment, the Contractor shall immediately notify the COR or Contracting Officer who issued the task order, in writing, giving pertinent details, provided, however, that this data shall be information only in character and that this provision shall not be construed as a waiver by the Government on any delivery schedule or date, or any rights or remedies provided by law or under the SOW.
SAFEGUARDING OF INFORMATION
The contractor and its employees shall exercise the utmost discretion in regard to all matters relating to their duties and functions. They shall not communicate to any person or entity any information known to them by reason of their performance of service under this contract which has not been made public, except in the course of their duties or by written authorization of the Contracting Officer. Further, no article, book, pamphlet, recording, broadcast, speech, television appearance, film, or photographs concerning any aspect of the contract shall be published or disseminated through any media without the prior written authorization of the Contracting Officer. These obligations do not cease upon the termination of this contract. The contractor shall include the substance of this provision in all contracts for employment and in all subcontracts hereunder.
SMALL BUSINESS ACCELERATED PAYMENT
The contractor must indicate his business size on each invoice to assist the payment office in determining eligibility for accelerated payment in accordance with OMB MEMO M-11-32,‘Accelerating Payments to Small Businesses for Goods and Services,’ dated 10/14/2011. The prompt payment act still applies to this action; however the agency will make best efforts to pay proper invoices within 15 days.
REPRESENTATIONS REGARDING FELONY CONVICTION UNDER ANY FEDERAL LAW OR UNPAID DELINQUENT TAX LIABILITY (DEVIATION 2012-02) (JAN 2012)
In accordance with Section 543 and 544 of Title Y, Division B of the Further Continuing Appropriations Act, 2012 (Pub. L. 112-55), none of the funds made available by the Act may be used to enter into a contract, memorandum of understanding, or cooperative agreement with a corporation convicted of a felony criminal violation of any Federal law within the preceding 24 months, unless an agency has considered suspension and debarment of the corporation and made a determination that this further Action is not necessary to protect the interests of the Government, or with an unpaid federal tax liability that has been assessed, for which all judicial and administrative remedies have been exhausted or have lapsed, and that is not being paid in a timely manner pursuant to an agreement with the authority responsible for collecting the tax liability, unless an agency has considered suspension and debarment of the corporation and made a determination that this further action is not necessary to protect the interests of the Government.
By accepting this award or order, in writing or by performance the quote-or/contractor represents that: The quote-or/contractor is not a corporation convicted of a felony criminal Violation under any Federal law within the preceding 24 months; and the quote-or/contractor is not a corporation that has any unpaid Federal tax Liability that has been assessed for which all judicial and administrative remedies have been exhausted or have lapsed, and that is not being paid in a timely manner pursuant to an agreement with the authority responsible for collecting the tax liability.
CONTINUING CONTRACT PERFORMANCE DURING A PANDEMIC INFLUENZA OR OTHER NATIONAL EMERGENCY
During a Pandemic or other emergency we understand that our Contractor workforce will experience the same high levels of absenteeism as our federal employees. Although the Excusable Delays and Termination for Default clauses used in government contracts list epidemics and quarantine restrictions among the reasons to excuse delays in contract performance, we expect our Contractors to make a reasonable effort to keep performance at an acceptable level during emergency periods.
The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has provided guidance to federal managers and employees on the kinds of actions to be taken to ensure the continuity of operations during emergency periods. This guidance is also applicable to our Contract workforce. Contractors are expected to have reasonable policies in place for continuing work performance, particularly those performing mission critical services, during a pandemic influenza or other emergency situation.
The types of actions a federal Contractor should reasonably take to help ensure performance are:
Encourage employees to get inoculations or follow other preventive measures as advised by the public health service. Contractors should cross-train workers as backup for all positions performing critical services. This particularly important for work such as guard services where telework is not an option.
Implement telework to the greatest extent possible in the workgroup so systems are in place to support successful remote work in an emergency. Communicate expectations to all employees regarding their roles and responsibilities in relation to remote work in the event of a pandemic health crisis or other emergency. Establish communication processes to notify employees of activation of this plan, integrate pandemic health crisis response expectations into telework agreements. With the employee, assess requirements for working at home (supplies and equipment needed for an extended telework period). Security concerns should be considered in making equipment choices; agencies or Contractors may wish to avoid use of employees' personal computers and provide them with PCs or laptops as appropriate. Determine how all employees who may telework will communicate with one another and with management to accomplish work. Practice telework regularly to ensure effectiveness. Make it clear that in emergency situations, employees must perform all duties assigned by management, even if they are outside usual or customary duties. Identify how time and attendance will be maintained.
It is the Contractor's responsibility to advise the government Contracting Officer if they anticipate not being able to perform and to work with the Department to fill gaps as necessary. This means direct communication with the Contracting Officer or E-Mail messages acknowledging the Contractor's notification. The incumbent Contractor is responsible for assisting the Government in estimating the adverse impacts of nonperformance and to work diligently with the Government to develop a strategy for maintaining the continuity of operations.
The Government does reserve the right in such emergency situations to use federal employees, employees of other agencies, contract support from other existing Contractors, or to enter into new contracts for critical support services. Any new contracting efforts would be acquired following the guidance in the Office of Federal Procurement Policy issuance "Emergency Acquisitions," May, 2007 and Subpart 18.2 Emergency Acquisition Flexibilities of the Federal Acquisition Regulation.
INVERTED DOMESTIC CORPORATIONS
Section 743(a) of Division D of the Omnibus Appropriations Act 2009, prohibits the Federal Bureau of Investigation from entering into any contract with any foreign incorporated entity which is treated as an inverted domestic corporation under Section 835(b) of the Homeland Security Act of 2002 (6 U.S.C. § 395(b)) or any subsidiary of such entity. This prohibition does not apply to contracts entered before March 11, 2009, or to any task order issued pursuant to such contracts, The Attorney General shall waive prohibitions in the interest of national security.
The Contractor under this solicitation warrants that:
It is not a foreign incorporated entity that should be treated as an inverted domestic corporation pursuant to 6 U.S.C. §395(b).
It is a foreign incorporated entity that should be treated as an inverted domestic corporation pursuant to 6 U.S.C. § 395(b), but it has submitted a request for a waiver or plans to submit a request for waiver.
A copy of the approved waiver, if a waiver has been granted, or the waiver request, if a waiver has been applied for, shall be attached to the bid or proposal.
The Contractor warrants that if at any time after award it discovers it is a foreign incorporated entity that should be treated as an inverted domestic corporation pursuant to 6 U.S.C. § 395 (b) and a waiver was not obtained, the Contractor shall make an immediate and full disclosure in writing to the Contracting Officer. The Government may, however, terminate the contract at no cost to the Government.
