Section G - Contract Administration Data

(a) Contact Information:

Contracting Officer Michael Davidson Email: Michael_Davidson@nps.gov

Contracting Officer Representative Scott Henrickson Email: Scott_Henrickson@nps.gov

(b) The Contracting Officer (CO) is the only person authorized to approve changes or modify any of the requirements under this contract and notwithstanding any provisions contained elsewhere in this contract, the said authority remains solely with the CO. In the event the contractor effects any such change at the direction of any person other than the CO, the change will be considered made without authority and no adjustment will be made in the contract price to cover increase in costs incurred as a result thereof.

(c) Contractual problems, of any nature, which might occur during the life of the contract, must be handled in conformance with very specific public laws and regulations (e.g., Federal Acquisition Regulation), and must be referred to the CO for resolution. Only the CO is authorized to formally resolve such problems. Therefore, the contractor is hereby directed to bring all such contractual problems to the immediate attention of the CO.

(d) Any request for contract changes/modifications shall be submitted to the CO.

(e) The contractor and the Government may agree to perform a no-cost field change. Field changes are made when the change appears to be mutually beneficial to all parties and would not require changing the negotiated line items. An example of a field change is: rerouting planned location of a sidewalk to avoid a tree (when quantities are not changed). All field changes must be approved by the CO prior to execution.

(f) All correspondence concerning this contract, such as requests for information (RFI), explanation of terms, and contract interpretation, shall be submitted to the CO.

NOTICE TO CONTRACTORS - CPARS (DEC 2015) Notice to Contractors

1) FAR 42.1502 directs all Federal agencies to collect past performance information on contracts. The Department of the Interior (DOI) has implemented the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) to comply with this regulation. One or more past performance evaluations will be conducted in order to record your contract performance as required by FAR 42.15.

2) The past performance evaluation process is a totally paperless process using CPARS. CPARS is a web-based system that allows for electronic processing of the performance evaluation report. Once the report is processed, it is available in the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) for Government use in evaluating past performance as part of a source selection action.

3) We request that you furnish the Contracting Officer (CO) with the name, position title, phone number, and email address for each person designated to have access to your firm's past performance evaluation(s) for the contract no later than 30 days after award. Each person granted access will have the ability to provide comments in the Contractor portion of the report and state whether or not the Contractor agrees with the evaluation, before returning the report to the Assessing Official (AO). Information in the report must be protected as source selection sensitive information not releasable to the public.

4) When your Contractor Representative(s) are registered in CPARS, they will receive an automatically generated email with detailed login instructions. Further details, systems requirements, and training information for CPARS is available at https://www.cpars.gov/.

5) Within 60 days after the end of a performance period, the AO will complete an interim or final past performance evaluation, and the report will be accessible at https://www.cpars.gov/.

a) Contractor Representatives may then provide comments in response to the evaluation or return the evaluation without comment.

b) Your comments should focus on objective facts in the AO's narrative and should provide your views on the causes and ramifications of the assessed performance.

c) All information provided should be reviewed for accuracy prior to submission.
