1.1 General: Remove the three (3) sets of existing Delta vehicle barriers at the main entry gate, main exit gate and the back gate and all their support equipment, and replace them with three (3) new Electro-Mechanical vehicle barriers and their controls, and support equipment at the American Consulate General in Almaty, Kaza-khstan. These barriers shall protect perimeter vehicle access/egress points or Compound Access Control (CACs) by limiting their vulnerability during the passage of vehicular traffic. Performance criteria for vehicle barrier systems involve functional requirements, power system and control circuits.

1.2 Functional Requirements: The vehicle arrest system shall provide a clearly visible device, such as a sig-nal light or a drop arm, to indicate the barrier’s status to the approaching driver. The normal operating time for the system to move the barrier component into its final secure position shall not exceed 3 to 4 seconds. The sys-tem shall include an emergency override mode that shall permit the barrier to be fully engaged in 0.75 seconds or less. The width of the barrier shall be capable of protecting up to12 ft. wide (3.7 meter) driveway or garage ramp. The barriers must meet impact tests identified in SD-STK-02.01, which specifies perpendicular barrier impact by a 15,000 lb (6810 kg) vehicle as K indicates vehicle velocity during crash test; and L indicates max-imum allowed penetration of the barrier by the vehicle. The barriers should meet all DOS/DS requirements and DOS/OBO standards and specifications. The must be K12 = 50 mph (80 kph) crash rated.

The system shall have two standard control circuits: a slave or local control for the guard at the gate, and a mas-ter or remote control for the Marine Security Guard (MSG) booth. Both sets of controls shall include status in-dicator lights for power and barrier position.

• The system shall provide an emergency override and secure switch to the local guard. The emergency over-ride switch for the local guard control shall not be equipped with reset capability. The local guard control shall include an annunciator, which shall be triggered whenever the barrier remains in the no secure posi-tion for a range of 0.0 to 60 seconds. The local control shall not be provided with a reset switch for this fea-ture.

• A remote master control shall be used at all posts. The remote master control shall have an override switch and reset button for the local emergency override feature. The remote master control panel shall have either an annunciator or a signal light triggered by the local control annunciator. The MSG booth alarm, however, shall include a silencer for the audible annunciator, if applicable. The annunciator shall disarm automatic-ally when the override switch is used. The remote master control shall also have a reset switch for the local control annunciator.

The Contractor shall provide written inspection/maintenance guidance and this guidance shall include compon-ent manuals. At a minimum this shall include:

• Inspection/maintenance procedures (what to check, locations, steps to follow)

• Special safety precautions

• Listing of parts/components requiring inspection/maintenance together with frequency of the inspection/ maintenance.

• Identification of specific maintenance materials or products (e.g., type of grade of oil and other fluids, size and types of filter, etc.)

• Identification of any special tools that shall be available before inspection/maintenance can be performed.

Every active vehicle barrier system shall include the following items:

• Remote control panel with annunciator, override and reset;

• Electro-mechanical control unit;

• Power off operation;

• Emergency fast operation;

• Sump pump (in ground units only);

• Export packaging;

• Installation, operation, and maintenance manual;

Section E- Inspection and Acceptance

52.246-2 Inspection of Supplies - Fixed-Price (Aug 1996)

(a) Definition. "Supplies," as used in this clause, includes but is not limited to raw materials, components, intermediate assemblies, end products, and lots of supplies.

(b) The Contractor shall provide and maintain an inspection system acceptable to the Government covering supplies under this con-tract and shall tender to the Government for acceptance only supplies that have been inspected in accordance with the inspection sys-tem and have been found by the Contractor to be in conformity with contract requirements. As part of the system, the Contractor shall prepare records evidencing all inspections made under the system and the outcome. These records shall be kept complete and made available to the Government during contract performance and for as long afterwards as the contract requires. The Government may perform reviews and evaluations as reasonably necessary to ascertain compliance with this paragraph. These reviews and evaluations shall be conducted in a manner that will not unduly delay the contract work. The right of review, whether exercised or not, does not relieve the Contractor of the obligations under the contract.

(c) The Government has the right to inspect and test all supplies called for by the contract, to the extent practicable, at all places and times, including the period of manufacture, and in any event before acceptance. The Government shall perform inspections and tests in a manner that will not unduly delay the work. The Government assumes no contractual obligation to perform any inspection and test for the benefit of the Contractor unless specifically set forth elsewhere in this contract.

(d) If the Government performs inspection or test on the premises of the Contractor or a subcontractor, the Contractor shall furnish, and shall require subcontractors to furnish, at no increase in contract price, all reasonable facilities and assistance for the safe and con-venient performance of these duties. Except as otherwise provided in the contract, the Government shall bear the expense of Govern-ment inspections or tests made at other than the Contractor's or subcontractor's premises; provided, that in case of rejection, the Gov-ernment shall not be liable for any reduction in the value of inspection or test samples.

(e)(1) When supplies are not ready at the time specified by the Contractor for inspection or test, the Contracting Officer may charge to the Contractor the additional cost of inspection or test.

(2) The Contracting Officer may also charge the Contractor for any additional cost of inspection or test when prior rejection makes re-inspection or retest necessary.

(f) The Government has the right either to reject or to require correction of nonconforming supplies. Supplies are nonconforming when they are defective in material or workmanship or are otherwise not in conformity with contract requirements. The Government may reject nonconforming supplies with or without disposition instructions.

(g) The Contractor shall remove supplies rejected or required to be corrected. However, the Contracting Officer may require or permit correction in place, promptly after notice, by and at the expense of the Contractor. The Contractor shall not tender for acceptance cor-rected or rejected supplies without disclosing the former rejection or requirement for correction, and, when required, shall disclose the corrective action taken.

(h) If the Contractor fails to promptly remove, replace, or correct rejected supplies that are required to be removed or to be replaced or corrected, the Government may either (1) by contract or otherwise, remove, replace, or correct the supplies and charge the cost to the Contractor or (2) terminate the contract for default. Unless the Contractor corrects or replaces the supplies within the delivery sched-ule, the Contracting Officer may require their delivery and make an equitable price reduction. Failure to agree to a price reduction shall be a dispute.

(i)(1) If this contract provides for the performance of Government quality assurance at source, and if requested by the Government, the Contractor shall furnish advance notification of the time--

(i) When Contractor inspection or tests will be performed in accordance with the terms and conditions of the contract; and

(ii) When the supplies will be ready for Government inspection.

(2) The Government's request shall specify the period and method of the advance notification and the Government representative to whom it shall be furnished. Requests shall not require more than 2 workdays of advance notification if the Government representative is in residence in the Contractor's plant, nor more than 7 workdays in other instances.

(j) The Government shall accept or reject supplies as promptly as practicable after delivery, unless otherwise provided in the contract.

Government failure to inspect and accept or reject the supplies shall not relieve the Contractor from responsibility, nor impose liability on the Government, for nonconforming supplies.

(k) Inspections and tests by the Government do not relieve the Contractor of responsibility for defects or other failures to meet con-tract requirements discovered before acceptance. Acceptance shall be conclusive, except for latent defects, fraud, gross mistakes amounting to fraud, or as otherwise provided in the contract.

(l) If acceptance is not conclusive for any of the reasons in paragraph (k) hereof, the Government, in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law, or under other provisions of this contract, shall have the right to require the Contractor (1) at no increase in contract price, to correct or replace the defective or nonconforming supplies at the original point of delivery or at the Contractor's plant at the Contracting Officer's election, and in accordance with a reasonable delivery schedule as may be agreed upon between the Contractor and the Contracting Officer; provided, that the Contracting Officer may require a reduction in contract price if the Con-tractor fails to meet such delivery schedule, or (2) within a reasonable time after receipt by the Contractor of notice of defects or non-conformance, to repay such portion of the contract as is equitable under the circumstances if the Contracting Officer elects not to re-quire correction or replacement. When supplies are returned to the Contractor, the Contractor shall bear the transportation cost from the original point of delivery to the Contractor's plant and return to the original point when that point is not the Contractor's plant. If the Contractor fails to perform or act as required in paragraph (l)(1) or (l)(2) of this clause and does not cure such failure within a peri-od of 10 days (or such longer period as the Contracting Officer may authorize in writing) after receipt of notice from the Contracting Officer specifying such failure, the Government shall have the right by contract or otherwise to replace or correct such supplies and charge to the Contractor the cost occasioned the Government thereby.

(End of clause)
