NOTICE FOR FILING AGENCY PROTESTS

United States Coast Guard Ombudsman Program

It is the policy of the United States Coast Guard (USCG) to issue solicitations and make contract awards in a fair and timely manner. The Ombudsman Program for Agency Protests (OPAP) was established to investigate agency protest issues and resolve them without expensive and time- consuming litigation. OPAP is an independent reviewing authority that is empowered to grant a prevailing protester essentially the same relief as the Government Accountability Office (GAO).

Interested parties are encouraged to seek resolution of their concerns within the USCG as an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) forum rather than filing a protest with the GAO or some external forum. Interested parties may seek resolution of their concerns informally or opt to file a formal agency protest with the Contracting Officer or Ombudsman.

Informal Forum with the Ombudsman. Interested parties who believe a specific USCG procurement is unfair or otherwise defective should first direct their concerns to the applicable Contracting Officer. If the Contracting Officer is unable to satisfy their concerns, interested parties are encouraged to contact the U.S. Coast Guard Ombudsman for Agency Protests. Under this informal process the agency is not required to suspend contract award performance. Use of an informal forum does not suspend any time requirement for filing a protest with the agency or other forum. In order to ensure a timely response, interested parties should provide the following information to the Ombudsman: solicitation/contract number, contracting office, Contracting Officer, and solicitation closing date (if applicable).

Formal Agency Protest with the Ombudsman. Prior to submitting a formal agency protest, protesters must first use their best efforts to resolve their concerns with the Contracting Officer through open and frank discussions. If the protester’s concerns are unresolved, an Independent Review is available by the Ombudsman. The protester may file a formal agency protest to either the Contracting Officer or as an alternative to that, the Ombudsman under the OPAP program. Contract award or performance will be suspended during the protest period unless contract award or performance is justified, in writing, for urgent and compelling reasons or is determined in writing to be in the best interest of the Government. The agency’s goal is to resolve protests in less than 35 calendar days from the date of filing. Protests shall include the information set forth in FAR 33.103(d) (2). If the protester fails to submit the required information, resolution of the protest may be delayed or the protest may be dismissed. To be timely protests must be filed within the period specified in FAR 33.103(e). Formal protests filed under the OPAP program should be submitted electronically to OPAP@uscg.mil and the Contracting Officer or by hand delivery to the Contracting Officer.

Election of Forum. After an interested party protests a Coast Guard procurement to the Contracting Officer or the Ombudsman, and while the protest is pending, the protester agrees not to file a protest with the GAO or other external forum. If the protest is filed with an external forum, the agency protest will be dismissed.

(5) ORDERING INSTRUCTIONS:

ADDITIONAL WORK

(a) The Contracting Officer reserves the right to contract for additional work via issuance of a new task order or modification of an existing task order, on the basis of a firm-fixed-price negotiated Task Order when it is in the best interest of the Government.

(b) Upon request, the Contractor shall furnish a price breakdown directly to the Contracting Officer, itemized as required by the Contracting Officer, of any quote submitted for additional work. Unless otherwise directed, the breakdown shall be submitted on an SFLC 002 quote form provided at the arrival conference permitting an analysis of all materials, labor, equipment, subcontract, overhead costs, and profit covering all work involved in the change/modification whether such work was deleted, added or changed. Any amount claimed for subcontracts shall be supported by a separate, similar price breakdown. If the quote includes a request for a time extension, justification shall be furnished with the quote.

(c) This clause is to be used in conjunction with the following clause, COMPOSITE LABOR RATE. The Contractor is required to have and/or furnish all tools and equipment incidental to each bench trade. All supplies necessary to accomplish the Work Items, such as wiping rags, hacksaw blades, sandpaper, welding wire, helium, etc., shall be included in the composite labor rate. Other materials are to be charged at regular rates and prices currently in effect and negotiated and agreed to by the Contract Specialist/Contracting Officer. Material shall be best commercial quality available, where a precise specification is indicated, in which case the specification shall apply, e.g., MILSPEC, FEDERAL SPEC.

(6) COMPOSITE LABOR RATE:

The composite labor rate offered shall be the sole labor hour rate used to price the Prime Contractor's direct labor hours for contract changes, i.e., additional work. The Contractor shall not receive any compensation in addition to this rate for the Prime Contractor's direct labor associated with such Task Orders under this contract.

(a) The composite labor hour rate shall represent total compensation for the following:

(1) Direct labor wages and salaries;

(2) All employee benefits including, but not limited to, paid leave, supplemental pay, insurance, retirement, savings, and legally required benefits;

(3) Other direct costs associated with transit time, delay, disruption, expendable supplies, and equipment;

(4) All indirect costs such as overhead and general and administrative expense;

(5) Any port or association fees, rents, or other levies;

(6) profit (fee); and

(7) All direct and indirect costs and profit associated with the following support functions:

(b) The composite labor hour rate will be applied to production labor hours only. Production labor hours include only those hours necessary and reasonable to perform direct production functions and do not include the hours expended on the support functions listed above. This exclusion of direct labor charges for support function hours applies whether such support functions are normally charged directly or indirectly by the Contractor's accounting system. These support functions are to be priced into the composite labor rate quoted and shall not be separately compensated.

(c) The Quantity of Composite Labor hours indicated in the Schedule of Supplies/Services, is only an estimate pursuant to this solicitation. The inclusion of this item does not obligate the Government to exercise the item nor entitle the Contractor to compensation if not exercised.

(7) PROCEDURES FOR TASK ORDERS, DISCOVERIES, AND CHANGES TO CONTRACT

After Contract award, individual task orders will be issued as necessary to support Contract requirements. The Contractor will be directed to commence work via a Task Order or modification sent from the Contracting Officer.

The Contractor shall not perform any type of additional work without the Contracting Officer's authorization. No oral or written statement of any person other than the Contracting Officer will in any manner or degree modify or otherwise affect the terms of this contract. The Contracting Officer is the only person authorized to approve changes in any of the requirements under this contract. In the event the Contractor effects any such change at the direction of any person other than the Contracting Officer, the change will be considered to have been made without authority and an adjustment may not be made in the contract price to cover any increase in cost incurred as a result thereof.

The Contracting Officer reserves the right to contract for changes, including Task Orders for Additional Work, on the basis of a firm-fixed-price, negotiated Task Order when it is in the best interest of the Government.
