In order to facilitate an effective Traceability Program for the end-item Group Ration Program, the contractor shall ensure that each primary container (unit pack) and intermediate container, if required, has a lot number and/or Date of Pack (DOP). The date of pack is equal to the date of production. The date of pack on the Placards shall be identical to the material code on each individual case. These package codes shall be permanent and legible. Failure to comply will result in delayed payment.

Use of the Julian Date for the lot number is preferred. For example, 9296 = October 23, 2009. If the contractor’s lot identification is of their own coding, the contractor shall provide the coding information for the primary containers and the contract data markings upon delivery.

Unitized Ration Component National Stock Number Item Name Date of Pack and/or Lot Number Number of Shipping Containers per Pallet Contract Number Contractor’s Name and Address Inspection Test Date (ITD) *

*The Inspection Test Date, the expected shelf life is found in the applicable solicitation/contract. To calculate the ITD, add the shelf life value to the month/year date of pack. Example, if the Date of Pack is June 2007, and the shelf life is 36 months (3 years), then the ITD is computed as follows: 6/07 + 3 years = 6/10. If labels are used, they shall be permanently affixed with water-resistant adhesive tape.

Shipments without the appropriate Shipping Container and Unit Load Markings will be rejected and returned to origin, or at the Contracting Officers discretion, reworked at a labor rate determined by the destination activity (not DLA Troop Support).

PAGE 12 OF 49 PAGESCONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED:

https://www.troopsupport.dla.mil/subs/support/quality/ipm-cpaf.pdf

The Government reserves the right to determine proof of such conformance prior to the first delivery from the point of origin and any time thereafter, as may be necessary, to include delivery at final destination, and for the time the product is covered under warranty, to determine conformance with the provisions of the contract.

End item lots determined nonconforming may be reworked to correct or screen out the defective units. Rework shall only be considered acceptable to the Government when the rework procedure has a reasonable probability of correcting the deficiency.

Any rework plan at a minimum will be approved by DLA Troop Support-FTRA, except for instances involving a rejection/retention of a lot due to foreign material. A lot rejected/retained due to the actual presence of foreign material or the likelihood of the presence of foreign material shall be retained in full and will require coordination with DLA Troop Support-FTRA prior to initiation of any rework.

A nonconforming lot, other than a lot retained for the presence of foreign material, may only be reworked one time without any specific authorization from the Contracting Officer.

15. QUOTES:

Due the time sensitive nature of these UGR Components, quotes received after closing will NOT be considered.

CAUTION - CONTRACTOR CODE OF BUSINESS ETHICS (FEB 2012)

FAR Part 3.1002(a) requires all government contractors to conduct themselves with the highest degree of integrity and honesty.

Contractors should have a written code of business ethics and conduct within thirty days of award. To promote compliance with such code of business ethics and conduct, contractors should have an employee business ethics and compliance training program that facilitates timely discovery and disclosure of improper conduct in connection with government contracts and ensures corrective measures are promptly instituted and carried out. A contractor may be suspended and/or debarred for knowing failure by a principal to timely disclose to the government, in connection with the award, performance, or closeout of a government contract performed by the contractor or a subcontract awarded there under, credible evidence of a violation of federal criminal law involving fraud, conflict of interest, bribery, or gratuity violations found in title 18 of the United States Code or a violation of the False Claims Act. (31 U.S.C. 3729- 3733)

If this solicitation or contract includes FAR clause 52.203-13 - CONTRACTOR CODE OF BUSINESS ETHICS AND CONDUCT; the contractor shall comply with the terms of the clause and have a written code of business ethics and conduct; exercise due diligence to prevent and detect criminal conduct; promote ethical conduct and a commitment to compliance with the law within their organization;

and timely report any violations of federal criminal law involving fraud, conflict of interest, bribery or gratuity violations found in title 18 of the United States Code or any violations of the False Claims Act. (31 U.S.C. 3729-3733). When FAR 52.203-13 is included in the contract, contractors must provide a copy of its written code of business ethics and conduct to the contracting officer upon request by the contracting officer.

RapidGate

Many bases currently require enrollment in RapidGate and will not allow entry without RapidGate clearance. During the contract implementation period, the Contractor must contact all customer locations to determine whether enrollment in RapidGate or another security program is required for access to each location. If RapidGate or other security enrollment is required, the contractor must take all necessary steps to obtain this in time for the start of performance under this contract. Failure to have RapidGate clearance may result in a vendor being turned away from the base and being unable to complete delivery. The contractor is responsible for the additional cost for RapidGate enrollment and must ensure that a RapidGate enrolled driver is available for all deliveries. We currently estimate that RapidGate enrollment will cost about $250 per company and $200 per enrolled employee for 1 year of access to multiple locations, but the cost of RapidGate or other security enrollment may vary, so the contractor should contact RapidGate to determine its own costs. If more than one driver is required, RapidGate enrollment must be obtained for each driver. Note that enrollment can take several weeks, so an awardee that is not already enrolled must begin enrollment at the time of award notification at the latest. If difficulty or delay in enrollment in RapidGate is encountered during the implementation period, the contractor MUST contact RapidGate and/or the Security Officer at the applicable customer locations to resolve any issues with processing RapidGate enrollment so that the contractor will be able to deliver as required. For additional information regarding RapidGate, including enrollment instructions, please visit their website at www.rapidgate.com.

Please note that RapidGate is currently a requirement for access to some military bases; however, these and other locations may require enrollment in other security programs at some time in the future. In this event, the contractor is responsible for obtaining all required enrollments and clearances for each of their drivers as soon as they receive notice of such a requirement.
