(i) If a Contractor has legally changed its business name, "doing business as" name, or division name (whichever is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets used in performing the contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements regarding novation and change-of-name agreements in Subpart 42.12, the Contractor shall provide the responsible Contracting Officer sufficient documentation to support the legally changed name with a minimum of one business day's written notification of its intention to-

(2)
(i) Any offer, modification, revision, or withdrawal of an offer received at the Government office designated in the solicitation after the exact time specified for receipt of offers is “late” and will not be considered unless it is received before award is made, the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late offer would not unduly delay the acquisition; and—

ADDENDUM TO FAR 52.212-2 EVALUATION – COMMERCIAL ITEMS
EVALUATION FACTORS – FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:
(i) Past Performance;
(ii) Technical demonstration that the permits meet the Government requirements;
(iii) Price
Past Performance is significantly more important than technical, and when combined are significantly more important than price.
(b) Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced.
Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).
(c) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party.

A determination of “Acceptable” will be given to Permits that clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation. A rating of “Unacceptable” indicates that the Permits do not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.
(2) Permits shall be provided in English.
PAST PERFORMANCE INFORMATION (PPI)
The Government will conduct a Performance Confidence Assessment for each offeror based upon submitted current, relevant Past Performance Information (consisting of Past Performance (PP) references) as it relates to the probability of the offeror being able to successfully perform the requirement. The Government’s subjective evaluation of the overall quality of an offeror’s submitted PPI will be a factor in determining the relative merits of the offeror’s proposal, and in selecting for award the offeror whose proposal is considered the best value to the Government.
(a) Requirement for Past Performance Information
(1) The offeror is required to submit PPI that will support a qualitative review of past performance. This information may include PPI submitted for the offeror’s (Prime’s) firm, and/or the offeror’s proposed Principal Subcontractor’s firm for the requirement, and/or the offeror’s proposed Key Personnel for the requirement. Past performance, as it relates to the Government’s review, is defined as reflecting how well (quality) the particular Contractor or Key Personnel performed the PP work effort.
(i) If the offeror elects to provide Principal Subcontractor PPI, the offeror shall have the Principal Subcontractor submit written consent authorizing the Government to use the firm’s PPI for evaluation purposes and to disclose any negative PPI for the firm to the offeror. Such written consent shall be submitted to the Government as part of the PPI Collection Documents provided for the offeror’s proposal (see (c) below).
(ii) Key Personnel are those primary individuals that will work directly on the resultant contract. Offerors are advised to ensure their understanding of this definition, as the Government will only consider for evaluation purposes the PPI of Key Personnel as identified in the PPI Collection Documents submitted for the offeror’s proposal (see (c) below).
(2) The Government will evaluate PPI that is current (within three years), and relevant (of same or similar nature) to the requirements of the solicitation. Relevancy considers those aspects of an offeror’s past performance that provide the greatest ability to measure whether the offeror will be successful in performing the current requirement.
The aspects of relevancy for this acquisition are: location, complexity, scope, and magnitude. How relevant a recent work effort (PP reference) accomplished by the offeror (Prime), and/or the proposed Principal Subcontractor, and/or the proposed Key Personnel, is to the current requirement will be determined by the Government.
(b) Sources for Past Performance Information
(1) PPI may be comprised of Government (Federal, State, or Local) and/or commercial
(private) contract awards, or an individual’s work history, that demonstrate the offeror (Prime) firm’s, and/or the Principal Subcontractor firm’s, and/or the Key Personnel’s ability to perform the proposed effort. The Government’s evaluation of past performance may consider information submitted as part of the offeror’s proposal, plus information gathered from Government evaluations or report cards, information obtained regarding the offeror’s performance under Small Business Subcontracting Plans and DLA Mentoring Business Agreements that have been incorporated into previous contracts, and information obtained from other sources. Offerors are authorized to provide in their PPI, information on problems encountered on identified past work efforts, and on their subsequent corrective actions (see (c) below).
(c) Collection of Past Performance Information
(1) The offeror shall use the Past Performance Information (PPI) Collection Documents, Parts 1 through 5 (Attachments 4 through Attachment 10) to collect and/or provide all types of PPI (Offeror/Principal Subcontractor/Key Personnel) being submitted for the offeror’s proposal. PPI Collection Document – Part 1 contains instructions for the offeror for collecting and/or providing PPI, and is a mandatory proposal submission under Volume II for all offerors, regardless of the type(s) of PPI being submitted. The offeror is solely responsible for ensuring all required PPI Collection Documents are completed and submitted to the Government by the required due date.
(i) An offeror firm with current, relevant DLA Disposition Services contracts, where no other type of PPI (i.e., non-DLA Disposition Services/Principal Contractor/Key Personnel) is being submitted as part of the offeror’s proposal, is required to submit PPI Collection Documents – Parts 1 and 3, only. The Government will collect PPI for the identified contracts via Contractor Performance Assessment Reports (CPARS) obtained from the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS).
(A) An offeror with DLA Disposition Services contracts may also submit other types of current, relevant PPI, if available. The offeror shall use the appropriate PPI Collection Documents to submit this additional information.
(ii) An offeror without current, relevant DLA Disposition Services contracts shall submit PPI Collection Document – Part 1, and all other required Parts as applicable to the type(s) of PPI being submitted as part of the offeror’s proposal.
(iii) The Government may contact any or all submitted PPI (PP references) directly to verify and/or discuss the submitted information. It is the offeror’s responsibility to ensure a PP reference POC is available for contact. If a PP reference POC is not available when contacted, the Government will not be required to notify the offeror, nor be required to make repeated efforts to contact the PP reference POC. Therefore, offerors are strongly encouraged to ensure contact information for a PP reference POC is correct and that the individual is available for the Government to contact.
(d) No Relevant Past Performance Information
(1) An offeror that has no identifiable record of performance of a same or similar nature to the current requirement may be considered by the Government to have no relevant past performance. In the case of an offeror without an identifiable record of past performance or for whom information on past performance is unavailable (this includes PPI identified by an offeror for the offeror firm, for which the required, corresponding PPI Collection Documents were not received by the Government), the offeror may not be assessed either favorably or unfavorably on Performance Confidence, as the degree of confidence to the Government cannot be adequately determined and is therefore unknown.

WORKERS’ COMPENSATION AND WAR HAZARD INSURANCE OVERSEAS FAR 52.228-4
– (APR 1984)
(a) This paragraph applies if the Contractor employs any person who, but for a waiver granted by the Secretary of Labor, would be subject to workers’ compensation insurance under the Defense Base Act (42 U.S.C. 1651, et seq.). On behalf of employees for whom the applicability of the Defense Base Act has been waived, the Contractor shall
(1) provide, before commencing performance under this contract, at least that workers’ compensation insurance or the equivalent as the laws of the country of which these employees are nationals may require, and
(2) continue to maintain it until performance is completed. The Contractor shall insert, in all subcontracts under this contract to which the Defense Base Act would apply but for the waiver, a clause similar to this paragraph (a) (including this sentence) imposing upon those subcontractors this requirement to provide such workers’ compensation insurance coverage.
(b) This paragraph applies if the Contractor or any subcontractor under this contract employs any person who, but for a waiver granted by the Secretary of Labor, would be subject to the War Hazards Compensation Act (42 U.S.C. 1701, et seq.). On behalf of employees for whom the applicability of the Defense Base Act (and hence that of the War Hazards Compensation Act) has been waived, the Contractor shall, subject to reimbursement as provided elsewhere in this contract, afford the same protection as that provided in the War Hazards Compensation Act, except that the level of benefits shall conform to any law or international agreement controlling the benefits to which the employees may be entitled. In all other respects, the standards of the War Hazards Compensation Act shall apply; e.g., the definition of war-hazard risks (injury, death, capture, or detention as the result of a war hazard as defined in the Act), proof of loss, ADDENDUM and exclusion of benefits otherwise covered by workers’ compensation insurance or the equivalent. Unless the Contractor elects to assume directly the liability to subcontractor employees created by this clause, the Contractor shall insert, in all subcontracts under this contract to which the War Hazards Compensation Act would apply but for the waiver, a clause similar to this paragraph (b) (including this sentence) imposing upon those subcontractors this requirement to provide war-hazard benefits.
INSPECTION OF SERVICES -- FIXED-PRICE FAR 52.246-4 (AUG. 1996)
(a) Definition: “Services,” as used in this clause, includes services performed, workmanship, and material furnished or utilized in the performance of services.
(b) The Contractor shall provide and maintain an inspection system acceptable to the Government covering the services under this contract. Complete records of all inspection work performed by the Contractor shall be maintained and made available to the Government during contract performance and for as long afterwards as the contract requires.
(c) The Government has the right to inspect and test all services called for by the contract, to the extent practicable at all times and places during the term of the contract. The Government shall perform inspections and tests in a manner that will not unduly delay the work.
(d) If the Government performs inspections or tests 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.
(e) If any of the services do not conform with contract requirements, the Government may require the Contractor to perform the services again in conformity with contract requirements, at no increase in contract amount. When the defects in services cannot be corrected by reperformance, the Government may --
(1) Require the Contractor to take necessary action to ensure that future performance conforms to contract requirements; and
(2) Reduce the contract price to reflect the reduced value of the services performed.
(f) If the Contractor fails to promptly perform the services again or to take the necessary action to ensure future performance in conformity with contract requirements, the Government may --
(1) By contract or otherwise, perform the services and charge to the Contractor any cost incurred by the Government that is directly related to the performance of such service; or
(2) Terminate the contract for default.
