B-0001 B15.01 SUPPLIES AND ESTIMATED QUANTITIES TO BE FURNISHED (INTO-PLANE) (DLA ENERGY AUG 2013)

(a) (1) The contract quantities shown below are best estimates only of the Government's requirements for the contract period. With respect to the products and/or services awarded at each individual airport location, the Contractor is obligated to deliver into-plane the supplies and perform the services required at such location, and the Government is obligated to order, accept, and pay for such supplies and/or services required at such location even though the quantities actually required during the contract period may be greater or less than the estimated quantities, except as provided for in the DELIVERY-ORDER LIMITATIONS contract provision.

(2) The estimated quantities shown in the Schedule do not include quantities that may be required by the Government for military exercises that are conducted at the specific airport location. The Government reserves the right to support military/federal exercises by using Government-furnished fuel, equipment, and personnel.

(3) In addition, if a Government facility is located at the airport, the Government shall only order from the Contractor the Government's fuel requirements that are in excess of its in-house capabilities. In such instances, the estimated quantities specified in the Schedule are estimates of requirements in excess of the quantities that the Government may itself furnish within its own capabilities.

(b) REQUIREMENTS. This is a requirements contract for the supplies or services specified and effective for the period stated in the ORDERING (INTO-PLANE) contract provision.

(1) The quantities of supplies or services specified in the Schedule are best estimates only and are not purchased by this contract.

Except as this contract may otherwise provide, if the Government's requirements do not result in orders in the quantities DLA Energy described as "estimated" or "maximum" in the Schedule, that fact shall not constitute the basis for an equitable price adjustment.

(2) Delivery or performance shall be made only as authorized by orders issued in accordance with the ordering provisions herein.

Subject to any limitations in the order limitations provisions herein or elsewhere in this contract, the Contractor shall furnish to the Government all supplies or services specified in the Schedule and called for by orders issued in accordance with the ordering provisions. The Government may issue orders requiring delivery to multiple destinations or performance at multiple locations. Except as this contract otherwise provides, the Government shall order from the Contractor all the supplies or services specified in the Schedule that are required to be purchased by the Government activity or activities specified in the Schedule. The Government is not required to purchase from the Contractor requirements in excess of any limit on total orders under this contract. However, the total quantity ordered and required to be delivered by the specified method of delivery during the ordering period may be greater than or less than these total estimated quantities.

(3) If the Government urgently requires delivery of any quantity of an item before the earliest date that delivery may be specified under this contract, and if the Contractor will not accept an order providing for the accelerated delivery, the Government may acquire the urgently required goods or services from another source.

(4) Any order issued during the effective period of this contract and not completed within that period shall be completed by the Contractor within the time specified in the order. The contract shall govern the Contractor's and Government's rights and obligations with respect to that order to the same extent as if the order were completed during the contract's effective period; PROVIDED, that the Contractor shall not be required to make any deliveries under this contract after the end of the stated delivery period.

(c) Unless otherwise specified in the Schedule or the Notes/Exceptions, the Contractor shall perform all fuel deliveries called for under the contract using its established facility for the airport (ICAO) specifically solicited. Offerors must have authorization from the appropriate airport authorities for access to the airport property where the refueling will be performed. Delivery shall encompass all delivery methods available at the airport (hydrant, truck, etc.). Exceptions to this must be stated prior to award.

(d) Prices indicated hereunder are subject to the ECONOMIC PRICE ADJUSTMENT – MARKET PRICE (DOMESTIC INTO- PLANE) contract provision for the contract period.

B-0002 B19.35 ECONOMIC PRICE ADJUSTMENT – MARKET PRICE (DOMESTIC INTO-PLANE) (DLA ENERGY JAN 2012)

(a) WARRANTS. The Contractor warrants that—

(1) The unit prices set forth in the Schedule do not include allowances for any portion of the contingency covered by this contract provision; and

(2) The prices to be invoiced hereunder shall be computed in accordance with the conditions of this contract provision.

(b) DEFINITIONS. As used throughout this contract provision--

(1) The term base price means the unit price set forth opposite the item in the contract Schedule.

(2) The term market price means the price or average of prices for the same or similar item, as set forth in the publication(s) listed in the table in paragraph (h) below, from which the base price is to fluctuate.

(3) The term base market price means the price or average of prices, as set forth in the publication(s) listed in the table in paragraph (h) below, in effect on the date listed in the RFP.

(4) The term date of delivery means the date and time product under this contract is delivered into-plane.

(5) The term week is a consecutive seven-day period beginning on a Monday.

(c) NOTIFICATION. The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer, Defense Logistics Agency Energy (DLA Energy), of any change in the market price by facsimile within 14 days from the date thereof.

(d) ADJUSTMENTS.

(1) The prices payable under this contract shall be adjusted upward or downward through issuance of contract modifications in accordance with the conditions set forth in this contract provision. One adjustment shall be made for each week during which the market prices have changed and shall become effective on the first day of the week. Any increase or decrease shall apply only to deliveries made on or after the first business day of the week and not the publication date of the trade price service or commercial journals listed in the table in paragraph (h) below. The amount of increase or decrease in the price payable under the contract shall be the same number of cents or fraction thereof that the market price increases or decreases per like unit of measure.

(i) In the event the Contractor fails to notify the Contracting Officer of any increase/decrease in market price, such increase/decrease shall apply only to deliveries made on and after the date of receipt by the Contracting Officer of a written notification from the Contractor of such increase/decrease.

(ii) DAY OF PUBLICATION. Except for items employing the publications listed in (A) and (B) below, the market price in effect on the date of delivery shall be that item’s preselected market price published on the Monday of the week in which the delivery is made or, in the event there is no publication in that week, it shall be the item’s preselected market price as last previously published.

NOTE 1: Oil Price Information Service’s (OPIS) Petroscan data is dated on a Thursday but is incorporated into the following Monday’s “hard copy” publication.

NOTE 2: DLA Energy downloads the electronic versions of the price publications (i.e., Platts, OPIS). Occasionally, a slight discrepancy may be noted between the prices posted on the electronic version and the printed (hard copy) version. In such an event, the prices posted in the electronic version shall be used in determining adjustments under this contract provision.

(A) PLATTS OILGRAM PRICE REPORT. For items employing Platts Oilgram Price Report Spot Price Assessment, with an effective day of Monday or Tuesday of each week, the market price in effect on the date of delivery shall be that item’s preselected market price officially on the electronic version on Monday’s containing prices effective on the prior Friday of the week in which the delivery is made. For items employing Platts Oilgram Price Report 5 Day Rolling Average, the market price in effect on the date of delivery shall be that item’s preselected market price published for 5 days ending on the Friday prior to the week in which the delivery is made. Normally, the average will be Monday through Friday; however, in the event of a holiday or other occurrence(s) for which Platts does not make an effective price, the closest effective price date(s) prior to Monday will be used to complete the 5 Day Rolling Average.

(B) When a combination of two different publications is utilized, the earlier date of the week shall control if differing published dates are used.

(2) The Contracting Officer shall calculate the adjusted prices based on the difference between the base market price and the market price. This difference shall be added to or subtracted from the base price to arrive at the current prices payable under this contract.

(3) The prices payable under this contract for any given week will be based on the last market price effective during the preceding week.

(4) The Contracting Officer shall issue a modification as soon as practicable after such price becomes effective. However, no modification incorporating an increase in a contract unit price shall be executed pursuant to this provision until the increase in the applicable published market price has been verified by the Contracting Officer or authorized representative.

(5) Contract price adjustments shall be provided via notification through contract modifications and/or posting to the DLA Energy web page at http://www.desc.dla.mil under the heading Vendor Resources and then Product Price Adjustments.

(6) The Contractor shall invoice and will be paid at the price set forth in the modification.

(7) FAILURE TO DELIVER. Notwithstanding any other conditions of this contract provision, no upward adjustment shall apply to product scheduled under the contract to be delivered before the effective date of the adjustment, unless the Contractor’s failure to deliver according to the delivery schedule results from causes beyond the Contractor’s control and without its fault or negligence, within the meaning of paragraphs (f), Excusable Delays, and (m), Termination for Cause, of the CONTRACT TERMS AND CONDITIONS - COMMERCIAL ITEMS clause of this contract, in which case the contract shall be amended to make an equitable extension of the delivery schedule.

(8) UPWARD CEILING ON ECONOMIC PRICE ADJUSTMENT. The Contractor agrees that the total increase in any contract unit price pursuant to these economic price adjustment provisions shall not exceed 575 percent of the award price in any applicable program year (whether a single year or a multiyear program), except as provided hereafter.

(i) If at any time the Contractor has reason to believe that within the near future a price adjustment under the conditions of this contract provision will be required that will exceed the current contract ceiling price for any item, the Contractor shall promptly notify the Contracting Officer in writing of the expected increase. The notification shall include a revised ceiling sufficient to permit completion of remaining contract performance, along with appropriate explanation and documentation as required by the Contracting Officer.

(ii) If an actual increase in the market price would raise a contract unit price for an item above the current ceiling, the Contractor shall have no obligation under this contract to fill pending or future orders for such item, as of the effective date of the increase, until the Contracting Officer issues either a contract modification to raise the ceiling or written notification that the ceiling will not be raised.

(9) REVISION OF MARKET PRICE INDICATOR. In the event--

(i) Any applicable market price is discontinued or its method of derivation is altered substantially; or http://www.desc.dla.mil/

(ii) The Contracting Officer determines that the market price indicator consistently and substantially failed to reflect market conditions— the parties shall agree upon an appropriate and comparable substitute for determining the price adjustments hereunder. The contract shall be modified to reflect such substitute effective on the date the indicator was discontinued, altered, or began to consistently and substantially fail to reflect market conditions. If the parties fail to agree on an appropriate substitute, the matter shall be resolved in accordance with paragraph (d), Disputes, of the CONTRACT TERMS AND CONDITIONS - COMMERCIAL ITEMS clause of this contract.

(e) CONVERSION FACTORS. If this contract provision requires quantity conversion for economic price adjustment purposes, the conversion factors for applicable products, as specified in the CONVERSION FACTORS provision, apply unless otherwise specified in the Schedule.

(f) EXAMINATION OF RECORDS. The Contractor agrees that the Contracting Officer or designated representatives shall have the right to examine the Contractor's books, records, documents, or other data the Contracting Officer deems necessary to verify Contractor adherence to the conditions of this contract provision.

(g) FINAL INVOICE. The Contractor shall include a statement on the final invoice that the amounts invoiced hereunder have applied all decreases required by this contract provision.

FAR 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.

http://qpldocs.dla.mil/

(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.
