52.225-9 BUY AMERICAN ACT—CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS (FEB 2009)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause--

Commercially available off-the-shelf (COTS) item—

(1) Means any item of supply (including construction material) that is--

(i) A commercial item (as defined in paragraph (1) of the definition at FAR 2.101);

(ii) Sold in substantial quantities in the commercial marketplace; and

(iii) Offered to the Government, under a contract or subcontract at any tier, without modification, in the same form in which it is sold in the commercial marketplace; and

(2) Does not include bulk cargo, as defined in section 3 of the Shipping Act of 1984 (46 U.S.C. App. 1702), such as agricultural products and petroleum products.

Component means an article, material, or supply incorporated directly into a construction material.

Construction material means an article, material, or supply brought to the construction site by the Contractor or a subcontractor for incorporation into the building or work. The term also includes an item brought to the site preassembled from articles, materials, or supplies. However, emergency life safety systems, such as emergency lighting, fire alarm, and audio evacuation systems, that are discrete systems incorporated into a public building or work and that are produced as complete systems, are evaluated as a single and distinct construction material regardless of when or how the individual parts or components of those systems are delivered to the construction site. Materials purchased directly by the Government are supplies, not construction material.

Cost of components means--

(1) For components purchased by the Contractor, the acquisition cost, including transportation costs to the place of incorporation into the construction material (whether or not such costs are paid to a domestic firm), and any applicable duty (whether or not a duty-free entry certificate is issued); or

(2) For components manufactured by the Contractor, all costs associated with the manufacture of the component, including transportation costs as described in paragraph (1) of this definition, plus allocable overhead costs, but excluding profit. Cost of components does not include any costs associated with the manufacture of the construction material.

Domestic construction material means--

(1) An unmanufactured construction material mined or produced in the United States;

(2) A construction material manufactured in the United States, if--

(i) The cost of its components mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States exceeds 50 percent of the cost of all its components. Components of foreign origin of the same class or kind for which nonavailability determinations have been made are treated as domestic; or

(ii) The construction material is a COTS item.

Foreign construction material means a construction material other than a domestic construction material.

United States means the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and outlying areas.

(b) Domestic preference.

(1) This clause implements the Buy American Act (41 U.S.C. 10a-10d) by providing a preference for domestic construction material. In accordance with 41 U.S.C. 431, the component test of the Buy American Act is waived for construction material that is a COTS item (See FAR 12.505(a)(2)). The Contractor shall use only domestic construction material in performing this contract, except as provided in paragraphs (b)(2) and (b)(3) of this clause.

(2) This requirement does not apply to the construction material or components listed by the Government as follows: “none”

(3) The Contracting Officer may add other foreign construction material to the list in paragraph (b)(2) of this clause if the Government determines that

(i) The cost of domestic construction material would be unreasonable. The cost of a particular domestic construction material subject to the requirements of the Buy American Act is unreasonable when the cost of such material exceeds the cost of foreign material by more than 6 percent;

(ii) The application of the restriction of the Buy American Act to a particular construction material would be impracticable or inconsistent with the public interest; or

(iii) The construction material is not mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available commercial quantities of a satisfactory quality.

(c) Request for determination of inapplicability of the Buy American Act. (1)(i) Any Contractor request to use foreign construction material in accordance with paragraph (b)(3) of this clause shall include adequate information for Government evaluation of the request, including--

(A) A description of the foreign and domestic construction materials;

(B) Unit of measure;

(C) Quantity;

(D) Price;

(E) Time of delivery or availability;

(F) Location of the construction project;

(G) Name and address of the proposed supplier; and

(H) A detailed justification of the reason for use of foreign construction materials cited in accordance with paragraph (b)(3) of this clause.

(ii) A request based on unreasonable cost shall include a reasonable survey of the market and a completed price comparison table in the format in paragraph (d) of this clause.

(iii) The price of construction material shall include all delivery costs to the construction site and any applicable duty (whether or not a duty-free certificate may be issued).

(iv) Any Contractor request for a determination submitted after contract award shall explain why the Contractor could not reasonably foresee the need for such determination and could not have requested the determination before contract award. If the Contractor does not submit a satisfactory explanation, the Contracting Officer need not make a determination.

(2) If the Government determines after contract award that an exception to the Buy American Act applies and the Contracting Officer and the Contractor negotiate adequate consideration, the Contracting Officer will modify the contract to allow use of the foreign construction material. However, when the basis for the exception is the unreasonable price of a domestic construction material, adequate consideration is not less than the differential established in paragraph (b)(3)(i) of this clause.

(3) Unless the Government determines that an exception to the Buy American Act applies, use of foreign construction material is noncompliant with the Buy American Act.

(d) Data. To permit evaluation of requests under paragraph (c) of this clause based on unreasonable cost, the Contractor shall include the following information and any applicable supporting data based on the survey of suppliers:

Foreign and Domestic Construction Materials Price Comparison

Construction material description Unit of measure Quantity Price (dollars) \1\

Item 1

Section M - Evaluation Factors for Award

EVLUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

CONTRACT AWARD

1. This acquisition will use the Performance Price Tradeoff (PPT) technique to make a best value award decision. Under this approach the offerors’ past performance history will be evaluated on a basis of approximately equal to price.

A. Initially the offers will be evaluated for responsiveness. In order to be considered responsive, the offeror must accept all solicitation requirements, including (but not limited to) terms and conditions, representations and certifications, specifications and drawings. Any offeror deemed non-responsive will not advance to the tradeoff process and will not be considered for award. The evaluation process shall proceed as follows:

B. PRICE

1. Offers shall be ranked according to price, including option prices if applicable. The government may determine that a proposal is not acceptable if the the price, including the option price is significantly low. Evaluation of the option shall not obligate the government to exercise option 1.

2. Price will be a substantial factor in the contracting officer’s award decision. Selection of the awardee will be based upon the most advantageous offer (price and other factors considered) and though not necessarily the determinative factor, price will contribute substantially to the award decision. The basis of the proposed price must be compatible with all other elements of the offer.

3. No advantage will accrue to an offeror who submits an unrealistically low price. Such an offer may be viewed as indicative of a lack of understanding of the government’s desired objective and may result in the offeror being excluded from the competition.

4. Since discussions are not contemplated, the offeror should submit its best price upon initial submission of the offer.

C. PAST PERFORMANCE

1. If no past performance information is submitted as a part of the offeror’s proposal, the entire proposal will be considered non-responsive and will not be considered for award. For those offeror’s who do not have any relevant past performance information to submit, a statement to that effect will satisfy the requirement for a past performance volume. In such a case, that offeror will be considered to have a neutral/unknown past performance rating for evaluation purposes. However, if the Government has knowledge or gains knowledge through other sources regarding what the Government believes to be relevant past performance for an offeror who states they have none, such information may be used by the Government for evaluation purposes and a past performance confidence assessment rating will be assigned to that offeror’s proposal.

2. Responsive offerors will receive an Integrated Past Performance Confidence Assessment Rating based on the offeror’s past and present performance as it relates to the probability of successfully accomplishing the required effort. The Integrated Past Peformance Confidence Assessment Rating will be determined by combining two individual components: Relevancy and Quality of Past Performance. Sources such as the following will be used to obtain relevant past performance information and determine the quality:

(a) Hard copy Past Performace Questionnaires sent to a maximum of five sources by the Offeror for which the offerors provide like efforts to the solicitation at hand. The questionnaires use the same data points as used by the PPIRS system;

(b) The Federal Government’s Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), which extracts information input into CCASS, and information independently obtained by the Government through other sources;

(d) A review of the information in the offeror’s proposal.

a. RELEVANCY OF PAST PERFORMANCE: The contracting officer shall seek relevant past performance information on all responsive offerors. Relevant past performance information includes performance of efforts that are similar in scope, magnitude, and complexity to the effort described in this solicitation, and have not expired more than 3 years ago. More recent past performance will be considered more heavily in the overall rating than less recent.

1. Each contract evaluated for Relevancy will receive one of the following ratings:

Rating

Description

HIGHLY RELEVANT (HR)

Past/present performance effort involved essentially the same magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

RELEVANT (R) Past/present performance effort involved such

NOT RELEVANT (NR)

Past/present performance effort involved little or none of the magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

b. QUALITY OF PAST PERFORMANCE: Determined by examining documentation to identify how well the offeror actually performed on current and recent past contracts.

(1) Each contract evaluated for Quality will receive one of the following ratings:

Excellent: Performance meets all contractual requirements and exceeds some requirements.

Satisfactory: Perfomance meets all…
