INFORMATION TO OFFERORS

DLA ENERGY – FEBAC

To all potential Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) offerors:

DLA Energy – Bulk Fuels intends to establish Basic Ordering Agreements (BOAs) with contractors, to supply and deliver bulk commercial jet fuel (JAA) to various locations in the Continental United States (CONUS) in support of the CONUS Jet A conversions expected to occur from FY 2014 – 2017. In order to meet these uncertain and constantly changing requirements a BOA will be issued to expedite the procurement time. A Basic Ordering Agreement is a written instrument of understanding, which contains the terms and agreements under which future requirements will be solicited, evaluated, awarded and performed. A BOA is not a contract.

The parties enter into a binding contract only via the issuance of a delivery order against the BOA based upon the acceptance of the agreement holder’s proposal for a specific requirement. Each delivery order will be considered a unique and separate contract. The purpose of this BOA is to negotiate in advance, any exceptions your company may have to the non-price related terms and conditions contained in this solicitation. Once negotiated, these terms and conditions will be incorporated into any supply contract awarded under the BOA.

Companies with BOAs will be able to respond to future solicitations for fuel requirements to support the changing priorities of the Department. This Solicitation will be open continuously for a period of five (5) years from the date of issuance. The BOA(s) will be reviewed annually to determine if any updates are necessary.

BOAs can be terminated by either party with 30 days’ written notice. This BOA does not authorize access or grant permission to use military installations and/or berth at ports/refuel at sea.

To be eligible for award of a BOA, offerors must submit the following:

1) Signed SF 1449

2) Certifications and Representations (See Section K under Offeror Submission Package (OSP)

3) A list of any exceptions to the terms and conditions of this solicitation

This solicitation will remain open continuously for 5 years. Please access the Federal Business Opportunities website “FedBizOpps”: https://www.fbo.gov for access to this Solicitation and for future notices.

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 contract and shall tender to the Government for acceptance only supplies that have been inspected in accordance with the inspection system 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 convenient performance of these duties. Except as otherwise provided in the contract, the Government shall bear the expense of Government inspections or tests made at other than the Contractor’s or subcontractor’s premises; provided, that in case of rejection, the Government 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 reinspection 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 corrected 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 schedule, 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 contract 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 Contractor fails to meet such delivery schedule, or

(2) within a reasonable time after receipt by the Contractor of notice of defects or nonconformance, to repay such portion of the contract as is equitable under the circumstances if the Contracting Officer elects not to require 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 (1) or (2) above and does not cure such failure within a period 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.

252.246-7000 MATERIAL INSPECTION AND RECEIVING REPORT (MAR 2008)

When procedures for in-line blending of non-aviation products in accordance with the IN-LINE BLENDING OF NON-AVIATION PETROLEUM PRODUCTS contract provision are used, the QCP will provide for establishing blend ratios, and identify the responsible personnel within the Contractor's organization authorized to establish the blend ratios. When line injection of additives is required by the contract, the QCP will provide procedures for proportionately injecting additives throughout the entire loading process to ensure the additive is homogeneously blended into the product, as well as procedures for maintaining records evidencing the homogeneous blending of all line injected additives. In addition to the testing in (iii) below, a laboratory hand blend of jet fuel with all additives required by the contract shall be tested, prior to shipment, to verify compliance with the specification;

(ii) SAMPLING. Procedures for sampling additives, blend tanks, shipping tanks, lines, and conveyances/containers in accordance with API Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards (MPMS), Chapter 8, Section 1, (ASTM D 4057) Manual Sampling of Petroleum and Petroleum Products, and/or Section 2, (ASTM D 4177) Automatic Sampling of Liquid Petroleum and Petroleum Products. Procedures include sample location, frequency, quantity, and retention. For all tanker, barge, and pipeline shipments, a flow-proportional sample taken in accordance with MPMS Chapter 8, Section 2, is preferred at the custody transfer point. However, manual samples taken in accordance with MPMS Chapter 8, Section 1 are acceptable provided that they are taken hourly throughout the shipment and that the quantity of the composite sample meets the requirements in Table II of this contract provision. See Table I, Minimum Sampling and Testing Requirements, and Table II, Sample Retention;

(iii) TESTING. Types of test series and individual test methods/procedures to be performed on samples taken from each location identified in (ii) above. See Table I, Minimum Sampling and Testing Requirements, and Table III, Definitions of Test Series;

Procedures for assuring condition of loading line (full of tested product, all air bled, and pressure packed) and gauging shore tanks, both before and after loading. In the event an automated metering system is to be used as the means of shore quantity determination, manual gauges of all storage tanks designated for shipment shall be taken prior to commencement of loading. Procedures for preload discussion between Contractor, vessel, and QAR to include, but not be limited to, prior two cargoes, cleaning procedures, loading plan, loading rates, sampling requirements, and after loading sampling and gauging. [Prior to loading - gauge, sample, and test intransit cargoes designated for load on top. Gauge and sample (1 gallon) any other product on board, except for JPTS, and retain those samples.] All cargo quantities shall be calculated and volume corrected both before and after loading. Procedures for commencement of loading into one tank (up to 3 feet), then switching to at most two other vessel tanks while first-in sampling and testing is being accomplished (Table I). Procedures for the transportation of samples from the vessel to the testing facility. Monitoring the loading (including line blending and additive injection) from source to vessel, investigating irregularities immediately and stopping loading, if necessary. Procedures for investigating discrepancies in quality (mandated if off-specification or out of testing tolerance) and quantity (mandated if shore to ship variance is in excess of the following: 0.2% (0.002) for cargos not requiring cleaning, gas freeing, or drop/strip; 0.3% (0.003) for cargos requiring drop/strip; or 0.5% (0.005) for cargos requiring cleaning and gas freeing, or figures are suspect) on loaded conveyance.

(C) For both f.o.b. origin and destination tankers/barges. Procedures for immediately notifying the QAR when irregularities occur or are suspected, and on all occasions when loading is interrupted. Authority to release a Government-furnished vessel rests with the Government QAR after compliance and completion by the Contractor of all required operations, including the preparation of the DD Form 250-1.
