1. Description and Purpose of Required Services

1.1 Requirement: This requirement is to obtain Contractor-Owned, Contractor-Operated (COCO) fuel facilities with the capability to receive and store 59,000 barrels of Jet A1 or JP8, and ship Jet A-1 or JP8 by inter-connected pipeline to the U.S. Fleet Logistics Center (FLC) Hachinohe, Japan.

1.2 Area of Consideration: The area limited to Hachinohe petroleum industrial area, Hachinohe

Japan. The contractor must be able to connect directly via pipeline to existing US Government-owned petroleum storage facilities located in the Hachinohe petroleum industrial area.

1.3 Storage Tank Requirements: A minimum of two tanks interconnected to provide the capability of re-circulating/filtering of products between tanks and isolated from other facilities and product(s) handled within the tank farm. Segregated facilities are preferred; however, a common system will be considered in accordance with contract clause L116.03 Data Requirements Storage (DLA ENERGY

JAN 2013). All storage must be available at a single port upon award. The storage tanks and facilities must meet the minimum requirements of the current American Petroleum Institute (API) standards, the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) codes, and all Federal, state and local and/or all comparable Japanese national laws, regulations, etc., applicable to tanks and facilities of the type to be provided. Cone roof tanks with internal floating pans are preferred; however, floating roof tanks will be acceptable. Floating roof tanks will be equipped with roof drains, which prevent water from coming into contact with the fuel as well as slotted “standpipes” to facilitate the accuracy of manual gauging. The tanks shall be interconnected so as to provide the capability of transferring/filtering product between tanks. The tanks and facilities will consist of one dedicated system capable of receiving, storing, and shipping one grade of Government-owned product. Each tank of the product system will be equipped for the effective removal of accumulated free water via independent suction. A segregated system in place of the preferred dedicated system is acceptable provided the requirements of DLA Energy clause L116.01 (d) are met.

1.4 Grade of Service: The contractor shall receive and store aviation turbine fuel, either

JP-8 (current product) or change to JA-1 when instructed by DLA Energy.

1.5. Physical System Requirements: Storage and handling facilities capable of receiving, storing, filtering, protecting, and shipping U.S. Government-owned petroleum product. Commingled tanks with fungible product will be considered. The capability to transfer product between storage tanks on a 24-hour per day, seven-day per week basis is required. As needed, either by the Contractor or directed by the Government, the Contractor shall transfer product between tanks to consolidate types or grades in preparation for receipts or issues at no additional cost to the government. The responsibility for preventing commingling or contamination during transfers rests completely with

SPE603-19-R-0508

the Contractor. The facility must be equipped with illumination to allow receipt/issue operations during darkness.

1.6. Allowed Throughput: The U.S. Government will be entitled to 600,000 barrels of total throughput, for each 12-month contract period, hereafter referred to as allowed throughput.

Note: Throughput is defined and calculated by adding the total number of barrels for each product type received and shipped in a 12 consecutive month period divided by 2 starting on contract being placed on revenue after receiving the initial fill and resetting on the anniversary date each following year, not to include the final shipment.

NOTE: Throughput does not include initial fill or final shipment. All costs shall be included in the contract price.

1.6.1 Initial Fill and Final Shipment: The U.S. Government will be entitled to initial fill during year 1 of CLIN 0001 of the performance period and final shipment during the final year of both

CLIN 0001 and/or 0002 of the performance period, at no additional cost.

Initial fill is defined, as all receipts required filling the storage tanks to 100% of the awarded safe fill capacity for each product.

Final shipment is defined as all issues required withdrawing 100% of the awarded safe fill capacity.

1.7 Inventory Control Records and System Records (Inventory Data Input): The contractor shall follow the physical inventory management procedures specified in applicable directives and contract clauses in accordance with DoD 4140.25M and DLA ENERGY Class IIIB Supply Chain

Management Interim Policy and Procedural Guidance. Fuel inventory management involves a full range of actions associated with the order, requisition, receipt, transfer, issue, physical inventory, and storage of fuel and additives. The contractor shall process inventory and accounting data of government-owned product utilizing DLA Energy’s web based application “Fuels Manager

Defense” (FMD). The contractor shall refer to contract text I119.04, INVENTORY CONTROL

RECORDS AND SYSTEM OF RECORDS (DLA ENERGY AUG 2017) for additional information regarding the government’s inventory data requirements. The contractor shall:

Ensure that all orders, receipts, transfers, issues sales/credits, losses, gains and adjustments are properly documented.

Maintain control over the physical environment to ensure proper product storage can take place with minimal losses.

Ensure inventory variations are within allowable limits. Document, investigate, report, and take corrective action if necessary on variations which exceed allowable limits.

Contractor shall verify the accuracy of any Automated Tank Gauging (ATG) used on receipt tanks monthly and ATG used for inventory reporting quarterly.

SPE603-19-R-0508

The accuracy verification will be accomplished by comparing the ATG measurements to manual measurements. The contractor may use the DLA Form

2026 to document the tests or a commercial equivalent.

The Contractor shall have the ATG calibrated whenever the difference between the

ATG and Manual measurements exceed 3/16th inch (or 4MM).

To process FMD inventory data, the contractor is required to obtain a Common Access Card

(CAC) (refer to Appendix A) or, as an alternative, obtain an External Certificate Authority (ECA).

Authorized users who are not eligible for the CAC should refer to https://iase.disa.mil/pki/eca/Pages/index.aspx for current information on obtaining ECA provided certificates. The Contractor is responsible for all costs associated with this effort.

1.7.1 Inventory access: The contractor shall ensure the Government has full access to its complete inventory. The DLA Energy Quality Assurance Representative/Contracting Officer’s

Representative (QAR/COR), and other DLA Energy representatives will be provided access to

FMD onsite, inventory documents, and storage tanks as needed.

1.7.2 FMD Equipment: The Contractor-furnished computer system shall meet the current commercial standards for a computer system capable of accomplishing the data reporting and records keeping required by FMD; maintaining the data collection and records keeping associated with product quality surveillance (i.e., product analysis and testing reports); and the document collection and records keeping associated with the Contractor’s preventive maintenance program. The

Contractor is required to input inventory data of Government-owned product directly into FMD utilizing DLA Energy web-based applications. DLA Energy may provide training to a minimum of two Contractor personnel. See contract clause I119.04, INVENTORY CONTROL RECORDS AND

SYSTEM OF RECORDS (DLA ENERGY AUG 2017) for additional information regarding the

Government’s inventory data requirements.
