The Government reserves the right to inspect or test any supplies or services that have been tendered for acceptance. The Government may require repair or replacement of nonconforming supplies or reperformance of nonconforming services at no increase in contract price. If repair/replacement or reperformance will not correct the defects or is not possible, the government may seek an equitable price reduction or adequate consideration for acceptance of nonconforming supplies or services. The Government must exercise its post-acceptance rights --
(1) Within a reasonable time after the defect was discovered or should have been discovered; and
(2) Before any substantial change occurs in the condition of the item, unless the change is due to the defect in the item.

(e) Definitions. The clause at FAR 52.202-1, Definitions, is incorporated herein by reference.
(f) Excusable delays.

In the event of such termination, the Contractor shall immediately stop all work hereunder and shall immediately cause any and all of its suppliers and subcontractors to cease work. Subject to the terms of this contract, the Contractor shall be paid a percentage of the contract price reflecting the percentage of the work performed prior to the notice of termination, plus reasonable charges the Contractor can demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Government using its standard record keeping system, have resulted from the termination. The Contractor shall not be required to comply with the cost accounting standards or contract cost principles for this purpose. This paragraph does not give the Government any right to audit the Contractor’s records. The Contractor shall not be paid for any work performed or costs incurred which reasonably could have been avoided.

The Government may terminate this contract, or any part hereof, for cause in the event of any default by the Contractor, or if the Contractor fails to comply with any contract terms and conditions, or fails to provide the Government, upon request, with adequate assurances of future performance. In the event of termination for cause, the Government shall not be liable to the Contractor for any amount for supplies or services not accepted, and the Contractor shall be liable to the Government for any and all rights and remedies provided by law. If it is determined that the Government improperly terminated this contract for default, such termination shall be deemed a termination for convenience.
(n) Title. Unless specified elsewhere in this contract, title to items furnished under this contract shall pass to the Government upon acceptance, regardless of when or where the Government takes physical possession.
(o) Warranty. The Contractor warrants and implies that the items delivered hereunder are merchantable and fit for use for the particular purpose described in this contract.

(s) Order of precedence. Any inconsistencies in this solicitation or contract shall be resolved by giving precedence in the following order:

(t) System for Award Management (SAM).
(1) Unless exempted by an addendum to this contract, the Contractor is responsible during performance and through final payment of any contract for the accuracy and completeness of the data within the SAM database, and for any liability resulting from the Government’s reliance on inaccurate or incomplete data. To remain registered in the SAM database after the initial registration, the Contractor is required to review and update on an annual basis from the date of initial registration or subsequent updates its information in the SAM database to ensure it is current, accurate and complete. Updating information in the SAM does not alter the terms and conditions of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed contractual document.
(2)
(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 a minimum of one business day’s written notification of its intention to:
(A) Change the name in the SAM database;
(B) Comply with the requirements of Subpart 42.12 of the FAR;
(C) Agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the responsible Contracting Officer. The Contractor must provide with the notification sufficient documentation to support the legally changed name.
(ii) If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (t)(2)(i) of this clause, or fails to perform the agreement at paragraph (t)(2)(i)(C) of this clause, and, in the absence of a properly executed novation or change-of-name agreement, the SAM information that shows the Contractor to be other than the Contractor indicated in the contract will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the “Suspension of Payment” paragraph of the electronic funds transfer (EFT) clause of this contract.
(3) The Contractor shall not change the name or address for EFT payments or manual payments, as appropriate, in the SAM record to reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims (see FAR Subpart 32.8, Assignment of Claims). Assignees shall be separately registered in the SAM database. Information provided to the Contractor’s SAM record that indicates payments, including those made by EFT, to an ultimate recipient other than that Contractor will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the “Suspension of payment” paragraph of the EFT clause of this contract.
(4) Offerors and Contractors may obtain information on registration and annual confirmation requirements via SAM accessed through https://www.acquisition.gov.
(u) Unauthorized Obligations.
(1) Except as stated in paragraph (u)(2) of this clause, when any supply or service acquired under this contract is subject to any End Use License Agreement (EULA), Terms of Service (TOS), or similar legal instrument or agreement, that includes any clause requiring the Government to indemnify the Contractor or any person or entity for damages, costs, fees, or any other loss or liability that would create an Anti-Deficiency Act violation (31 U.S.C. 1341), the following shall govern:
(i) Any such clause is unenforceable against the Government.
(ii) Neither the Government nor any Government authorized end user shall be deemed to have agreed to such clause by virtue of it appearing in the EULA, TOS, or similar legal instrument or agreement. If the EULA, TOS, or similar legal instrument or agreement is invoked through an “I agree” click box or other comparable mechanism (e.g., “click-wrap” or “browse-wrap” agreements), execution does not bind the Government or any Government authorized end user to such clause.
(iii) Any such clause is deemed to be stricken from the EULA, TOS, or similar legal instrument or agreement.
(2) Paragraph (u)(1) of this clause does not apply to indemnification by the Government that is expressly authorized by statute and specifically authorized under applicable agency regulations and procedures.
(v) Incorporation by reference. The Contractor’s representations and certifications, including those completed electronically via the System for Award Management (SAM), are incorporated by reference into the contract.
52.212-5 CONTRACT TERMS AND CONDITIONS REQUIRED TO IMPLEMENT
STATUTES OR EXECUTIVE ORDERS-COMMERCIAL ITEMS (MAY 2015)
X (33)(i) 52.222-50, Combating Trafficking in Persons (Mar 2015) (22 U.S.C. chapter 78 and E.O. 13627).
52.212-1 INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS – COMMERCIAL ITEMS (BULK) (TAILORED) (DLA
ENERGY) (JUL 2013)
(e) PERIOD FOR ACCEPTANCE OF OFFERS. The offeror agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 180 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of offers.
52.212-2 EVALUATION -- COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT 2014)
(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:
FACTOR 1: TECHNICAL ACCEPTABILITY
The following subfactors are equal in importance:
SUBFACTOR
1. Supplies or Services and Prices/Costs, Section B
2. Description/Specifications/Statement of Work, Section C
3. Inspection and Acceptance, Section E
4. Deliveries or Performance, Section F
Subfactors 1 – 4 will be rated either “Acceptable” or “Unacceptable.” These ratings are defined as follows:
ACCEPTABLE: The offeror’s proposal conforms to the Supplies or Services and Prices/Costs in Section B, Description/Specifications/Statement of Work in Section C, Inspection and Acceptance in Section E, and Deliveries or Performance in Section F.
UNACCEPTABLE: The offeror’s proposal does not conform to any one or more of the following requirements: the Supplies or Services and Prices/Costs in Section B, Description/Specifications/Statement of Work in Section C, Inspection and Acceptance in Section E, and Deliveries or Performance in Section F.
Proposals may be comprised of individual, independent offers, differentiated by product grade, shipping mode and/or FOB point. An individual offer within a proposal may be rated “Unacceptable,” while remaining offers within the same proposal may be rated “Acceptable.” A rating will be made for each individual offer within each proposal.
Each individual offer within a proposal must receive an “Acceptable” rating for every subfactor in order to be rated technically acceptable. If an individual offer within a proposal receives a rating of “Unacceptable” for one subfactor it will be rated technically unacceptable. Therefore, some individual offers within a proposal may be considered technically acceptable, while other individual offers within the same proposal may be considered technically unacceptable.
An offeror that proposes an exception to any of the requirements of the solicitation, as related to the aforementioned subfactors, will be reviewed to determine whether the fuel will meet the Government’s specification and delivery requirements, can physically be accepted, and not compromise fuel quality. If so, an offer containing the exception will also be technically acceptable. Programmatic exceptions are addressed to all offerors via amendment. Likewise, a rating may be made “Acceptable” if an offeror corrects, or the Government accepts by reason of exception, any subfactors previously rated “Unacceptable” by the Source Selection Evaluation Board (SSEB).
The Contract Team is responsible for addressing “Unacceptable” ratings, questions, clarifications, and/or comments posed by Technical Team members and relative to each offeror’s proposal, during negotiations. All offerors will have an opportunity to make revisions to submitted proposals during negotiations and to submit a final proposal revision unless the offeror should choose to withdraw before the time final proposal revisions are requested.
FACTOR 2: PRICE
Fixed Price with Economic Price Adjustment (EPA) contracts will result from this solicitation. The Contract Team will evaluate proposals for pricing purposes in accordance with FAR 52.212-2
EVALUATION-COMMERICAL ITEMS.
Offerors are advised that DLA Energy intends to execute the extension provision of any subsequent contract only if there are remaining quantities left on the contract; no quantities will be added. The extension provision will only extend the ordering and delivery period of the contract. In addition, the extension provisions contained in contract provision I209.09 EXTENSION PROVISIONS (DLA ENERGY JAN 2012) will be evaluated in conjunction with the evaluation of initial offers received.
The lowest price is defined as the lowest laid-down price, to include transportation costs as determined by the Bid Evaluation Model (BEM) which will provide the basis to make awards. The BEM is a computer evaluation model which analyzes numerous variables. These variables include the offeror's proposed prices, fuel types, minimum and maximum award quantities, shipping locations, shipment mode capabilities, minimum and maximum cargo sizes, customer receipt locations, and receipt mode capabilities. Transportation rates will be included for tanker, railcar, barge, pipeline, and tank truck transportation modes in accordance with M41.02 EVALUATION OF OFFERS (OTHER THAN
OFFERS INVOLVING F.O.B. TANKER LOADING) (TRANSPORTATION RATES AND
RELATED COSTS) and M41.04 EVALUATION OF OFFERS INVOLVING OTHER THAN F.O.B.
TANKER (BULK). Government additive costs will be used to evaluate, where applicable, proposals of product not fully additized at the loading facility, but instead are additized/injected en route to a facility or customer location. The BEM will calculate the overall pattern of delivery of fuel from contractor facilities to specific customer locations that represents the lowest total combination of price for product and transportation.
DLA Energy will request offeror submission of Interim Proposal Revisions (IPRs) before the conclusion of negotiations. IPRs will be entered into the BEM and evaluated. Each offeror will be provided with two documents generated from the BEM: the Minimum Cost Bid Evaluation Worksheet (MCBEW) and the Laid-Down Cost Report (LCR), as follows:
- The MCBEW will provide detailed information on how an offer is evaluated to each demand location.
Details including product price, method of delivery for each leg of the route, transportation and additive costs, and any applicable evaluation factors are included, and the ‘final laid in price’ is identified for each location. This information will be generated separately for each offeror, and each offeror will receive only the information applicable to their offer.
- The LCR will provide information on the award price at each demand location. The report is limited to providing the solicitation line item, location, quantity awarded, and ‘laid in price’ for quantity awarded.
In this instance, the laid in price is the aggregate price including product, additive, transportation and any evaluation factor costs. No information concerning apparently successful offer, shipping point, or product routing is included.
- Offerors will be given time to review the MCBEW and LCR, after which DLA Energy will close negotiations and call for Final Proposal Revisions (FPRs). FPRs will be entered into the BEM and evaluated. Offerors will be provided with updated copies of the MCBEW and LCR.
Offerors will then be given an opportunity to provide a further discount using the Reverse Auction (RA) Procurex tool. All offerors will be entered in the RA. No further action is required for offerors that choose not to offer a price discount during the RA. Any offeror that does participate will enter a discount price in the RA. The discount price will be offered by product and region, rather than specific line item. For example, a discount may be offered for all JP8 in the West Coast region. This discount will be offered from a notional price (e.g., $1.00), and not from an actual offer price.
The Contracting Officer will establish an RA bid line for each product and region. Each bid line will have a notional price established. This notional price is the price against which vendors will offer their discounts. The minimum decrement for bids will be $0.00001. At the conclusion of the RA, the lowest discount price offered by each vendor will be recorded. This discount will be applied to the price offered at time of FPRs, and the BEM will be run to determine the award pattern with any discounts offered during the RA. A mock RA will be held to allow all offerors to become familiar with the process before the actual RA is conducted.
(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. Before the offer’s specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
2. The following clauses and/or provisions are hereby included in the solicitation:

NOTES:
A. FOR EVALUATION PURPOSES ONLY: DLA ENERGY will add 5 days to offered FOB Origin tanker lift intervals and 3 days to offered FOB Origin barge lift intervals to determine if the maximum total quantity offered for each offered item can be lifted under a resultant contract. Additionally, if multiple lift intervals are offered, DLA ENERGY will evaluate the maximum quantity for award based on the most restrictive lift interval. These evaluation factors were derived from operational scheduling realities and will be used only for evaluation purposes. The Government reserves the right to schedule lifts in accordance with the lift intervals indicated in the Schedule of the resultant contract. If the evaluation of each item results in less total quantity than the total quantity offered for that item, then the Government may not award more than the evaluated total quantity. However, offerors should consider the Government's evaluation factors for tanker and barge lift intervals to assure lift intervals and parcel sizes provide for full evaluation of total offered quantity for all items by all modes of delivery.
B. Unless you define otherwise, lift interval is the time between when the vessel completes loading (released by the Government
Inspector) until the Scheduled Delivery Date of the next lifting for a specific product.
5. Identify the Mean Low Water (MLW) depth at the shipping point and the channel approach leading to the dock.
