(2) Required shipping date;

(3) Special handling and discharge requirements;

(4) Loading and discharge points;

ITEM DESCRIPTION CONTRACT LINE ITEMS

QUANTITY

TOTAL ____ ____ ____

(g) If this contract exceeds the simplified acquisition threshold and the final invoice does not include the required representation, the Government will reject and return it to the Contractor as an improper invoice for the purposes of the Prompt Payment clause of this contract. In the event there has been unauthorized use of foreign-flag vessels in the performance of this contract, the Contracting Officer is entitled to equitably adjust the contract, based on the unauthorized use.

(h) If the Contractor indicated in response to the solicitation provision, Representation of Extent of Transportation by Sea, that it did not anticipate transporting by sea any supplies; however, after the award of this contract, the Contractor learns that supplies will be transported by sea, the Contractor shall-

(1) Notify the Contracting Officer of that fact; and

4. Purchase Limitation: In accordance with FAR 19.102(f), the Non-Manufacturer Rule applies. Therefore, any Calls above the simplified acquisition threshold must follow the individual waiver process in accordance with local procedures. The contractor is not obligated to honor any order exceeding the maximum order limitation of $500,000.

5. Individuals authorized to purchase under the BPA: The only individuals authorized to place calls against this BPA are warranted Contracting Officers and Individual GPC holders up to their purchase limitations.

6. Delivery: All shipments under this agreement shall be Free On Board (FOB) Destination and accompanied by delivery tickets that shall contain the following information:

Ongoing orders will continue in accordance with their own period of performance, even if the BPA is cancelled. Termination procedures for Calls are addressed in accordance with FAR 52.212-4.

13. Off-Ramp Procedures

a. The Off-Ramp process under a BPA or contract encompasses several methods by which the Government may exercise its right to remove a BPA Awardee from the pool of effective BPA awardees. The Off-Ramp methods include, but are not limited to, procedures under:

i. FAR Part 12 for commercial contracts or orders there under (Termination for Cause or Termination for Convenience - with or without costs);

ii. Cancellation of BPAs under terms and conditions therein.

b. The Government, at its sole discretion, reserves the right to off-ramp a BPA Awardee by enforcing a BPA cancellation, at no cost to the Government, for any reason (including the performance standards indicated in paragraph 14 - Program Performance Standards). By submitting a quote under the original solicitation for this requirement, the BPA Awardee agrees (as under a bilateral agreement) to be bound by the terms and conditions of this clause and paragraph 14. As such, the BPA Awardee agrees that the cancellation, at no cost to the Government, will not result in a Termination for Cause or Termination for Convenience.

c. The Government will provide a 30-day written notice to the BPA Awardee if it intends to off- ramp a BPA Awardee. However, it is the Government's intent to maintain a strategic relationship with BPA Awardees for the duration of the BPA. Cancellation of the BPA under the off-ramp process shall not constitute a basis of contractual adjustment or a claim under the Disputes clause.

14. BPA Awardee Performance Standards. This is a U.S. Air Force-wide strategic sourcing program. Success is contingent upon successful performance of all BPA Awardees within the program. CPARS will be used to track past performance of each BPA Awardee for the duration of the applicable BPA. Specifically, the Government expects the following performance standards to be met throughout the term of the BPA:

a. Quote 80% of the time. Competition is vital to this program. BPA Awardees shall quote on 80% of all Call-level requests for quote (RFQs).

b. Data reporting. BPA Awardees shall submit complete, accurate and timely data reports in accordance with the quarterly data reporting requirements of the BPA. Quality data is vital for making future decisions and improvements regarding the mixed-reality integrated training device component program.

c. Delivery. BPA Awardees shall meet delivery requirements of Government customers. Delivery schedules shall be indicated upon placement of a Call. If there are any delivery issues, BPA Awardees shall proactively address them with customers and/or the Contracting Officer issuing the Call.

15. Call Ordering Provisions: The following ordering procedures apply to all Calls issued under this BPA. Any Supplies to be furnished under this BPA will be ordered by issuance of Call (written and/or electronically). In addition:

a. Contracting Officers and Governmentwide Commercial Purchase Card (GPC) holders from U.S. Air Force training units are authorized to place calls against the established BPA.

b. All costs associated with marketing, quotation preparation, presentation, submission and negotiation in response to any Call shall be at the BPA Awardee's expense and will not be allowable as a direct charge. Post award Call administration shall not be a direct charge to the Call.

c. GPC - The Governmentwide Commercial Purchase Card (GPC) may be used by contracting officers and other designated individuals to make purchases at or below the Micro-Purchase Threshold. Authorized callers may utilize the GPC to place calls directly with vendors against this BPA.

d. Form 9 - Purchases exceeding the Micro-Purchase Threshold shall be completed through each customer's local contracting office. Authorized callers may place calls directly with vendors. Orders shall be competed among all BPA vendors by submitting a Request for Quote (RFQ), unless an exception at FAR 8.405-6 applies or is expressly authorized by statute. Awards will be issued on a Standard Form 1449.

e. Calls will be made on a best-value determination. The following criteria, in no particular order, should be considered in the best value determination: price, past performance, delivery and technical capability.

f. The Government's selection decision on each Call evaluation shall be final.

g. The Government reserves the right to make an award without discussions.
