SECTION C

PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT/ DESCRIPTIONS / SPECIFICATIONS

C.1 OVERVIEW

C.1.1 LTC Vendors shall supply tires to the TSI Contractor, for supply support of the tire NSN(s) as listed herein (designated in contract SPM7LX-11-D-0157/SPE7L1-14-D-0005).

C.1.2 The LTC Vendor will receive an order from the TSI Contractor. Any interested offeror must be able to receive orders electronically from the TSI Contractor. This can be accommodated either through electronic mail, Electronic Data Interchange (EDI), or paperless order transmission. Alternatively, a manual order from the TSI Contractor shall be accommodated.

C.2 TSI PROGRAM EXECUTION; TSI CONTRACTOR AND LTC VENDOR RELATIONSHIP

C.2.1 The TSI Contractor and the LTC Vendor is expected and required to meet all terms and conditions as outlined in their applicable contracts. LTC Vendors supporting the TSI Program are partnering with Government and industry counterparts to support DLA’s military customer and are therefore expected to use reasonable efforts and good faith in executing TSI Program support.

C.2.2 Ordering, Pricing, and Delivery: The TSI Contractor is authorized and required to place orders under the LTC Vendors’ contracts. Orders shall be placed by the TSI Contractor directly to the Government designated LTC Vendor source for each NSN. The LTC Vendor shall fill the TSI Contractor orders at the price and delivery terms in the LTC Vendor’s contract. The LTC Vendor shall notify the TSI contractor, in writing, the date the TSI Contractor should expect delivery at least 5 calendar days prior to the scheduled delivery date.

C.2.3 Inspection & Acceptance: The TSI Contractor shall conduct a “kind, count and condition” (KCC) inspection prior to acceptance of LTC Vendor-supplied materiel. Inspection and Acceptance (or action as outlined at C.2.3.1.1 or C.2.3.1.2)is expected to occur within 3 business days after delivery to the TSI Contractor’s location. Acceptance of tires by the TSI Contractor under this provision does not constitute acceptance on behalf of the Government, and is only the TSI Contractor’s determination that the tires are suitable for use in its performance under the TSI contract and in accordance with applicable terms and conditions. The same or similar requirements are included in the TSI Contract

SPM7LX-11-D-0157/SPE7L1-14-D-0005.

C.2.3.1 KCC inspection shall constitute a superficial evaluation of the quality of the item and consist of the following:

• Kind: visual identification of at least one item per the item description, verification of the part

PAGE 6 OF 37 PAGESCONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED:

number, contract number and NSN; all as specified in the LTC;

• Count: visual confirmation of the contents of a minimum of one package per line item and number of packages received as specified in the order; and

• Condition: visual verification of physical appearance of the exterior of the item to determine if the item visually meets the LTC requirement.

C.2.3.1.1 Should the TSI Contractor’s system determine a “kind” and/or “count” non-conformance upon inspection of material, the TSI Contractor shall notify, in writing, the Contracting Officer and LTC Vendor with sufficient documentation/information to support the non-conformance along with a requested disposition.

C.2.3.1.2 Should the TSI Contractor’s system determine a “condition” non-conformance upon inspection of material, the TSI Contractor shall notify, in writing, the Contracting Officer and LTC Vendor within 1 day from the time the carrier delivers the tires, with sufficient documentation/information to support the non-conformance along with a requested disposition. Any disputes shall be resolved per paragraph C.2.7.

C.2.3.2 The TSI Contractor is not permitted to reject conforming materials from the LTC Vendor provided the supplied tires meet the LTC Vendor’s contract requirements.

C.2.4 Payment: The TSI Contractor shall make payment to the LTC Vendor under Net 30 terms from the date it receives a proper invoice.

C.2.4.1 For purposes of LTC Vendor payment from the TSI Contractor, a proper invoice shall include, at a minimum, the following elements: Sender and Recipient Information (i.e., company name, address, and phone), TSI LTC Vendor Government Contract Number, TSI Contractor Invoice Number (if applicable), Ship Date, Delivery Date, Receipt Date, Invoice Date, Quantity, Description of Contents (to include NSN and nomenclature), Carrier and Tracking Number and Invoice Value (in dollars).

C.2.4.2 If authorized by the Contracting Officer, in writing to both parties, pursuant to a final resolution under paragraph C.2.7, the TSI Contractor may offset payments to recover costs associated with materiel returns.

C.2.4.3 If the TSI Contractor fails to pay the LTC Vendor for conforming tires received, pursuant to C.2.7, the Contracting Officer will issue a final decision that authorizes payment by the Government directly to the LTC Vendor.

C.2.5 Warranty Returns and Customer Returns: Returns will be handled by the Contracting Officer or Designee on a case by case basis.

C.2.5.1 Notwithstanding any previous inspection and/or acceptance by the Government, the LTC Vendor warrants all items covered by this contract shall be free from defects and fully usable in accordance with their operational application and the specifications set forth in this solicitation (to include any attachments and amendments) and consistent with the requirements at C.2.3 and C.2.5 and their subparts. This is in addition to, and not in abrogation of, any commercial or other warranty on the items.

C.2.5.2 In the event of a customer return due to a defect or damage, the Government will investigate to assess the failure and determine cause for the defect and initiate the corrective action and return, if applicable.

C.2.5.3 Payment for Returned Tires: The TSI Contractor shall bear the initial costs associated with the return and replacement of non-conforming tires. In the event the Government’s investigation determines the LTC Vendor is responsible for the defect or failure, the LTC Vendor shall reimburse the TSI Contractor the costs associated with the materiel return. The LTC Vendor shall be liable for manufacturer defects or damage occurring before delivery to the TSI Contractor, while the TSI Contractor shall be liable for damage to the tires occurring after receipt due to the TSI Contractor’s handling, storage, and/or shipment of the tires to

PAGE 7 OF 37 PAGESCONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED:

the Government end-user.

C.2.6 Reliability Management and Communication: The term “Reliability Management” refers collectively to Configuration Management, Obsolescence Management, and Quality Management (see sections C.11, C.12 and C.13).

When either party, the TSI Contractor or LTC Vendor, provides the Government with information regarding Reliability Management of specific NSNs in accordance with the terms of their contract, that same information shall be provided to their TSI Program counterpart at the same time in writing; i.e., the TSI Contractor shall provide the information to the LTC Vendor(s) responsible for the specific NSN and the LTC Vendor shall provide the information to the TSI Contractor.

C.2.7 Disputes: All disputes and issues needing a resolution that arise between the TSI Contractor and the LTC Vendor in the performance of the applicable contracts shall be resolved in accordance with the Disputes sub-paragraph. In the event a dispute or issue arises between the TSI Contractor and the LTC Vendor, the LTC Vendor shall attempt to resolve the issue through good-faith efforts. If the parties are unable to resolve the issue after a period of 30 days (unless otherwise specified), the LTC Vendor will refer the matter to the Government (Contracting Officer or Contract Administrator) for a final disposition decision.

C.2.8 Any additional commercial contract requirements established between the TSI Contractor and LTC Vendor shall be the responsibility of the two parties, but in order to maintain the integrity of the TSI Program, all agreements shall be provided to the Contracting Officer, in writing, to ensure said agreements are not in conflict with the terms of the applicable TSI Program contracts. The Government is not a party to any such agreement. No disputes over terms or conditions negotiated between the TSI Contractor and the LTC Vendor beyond the Government LTC’s terms and conditions shall justify delay in LTC Vendor performance under this contract.

C.3 IDPO SOLICITATION AND CONTRACT: The government desires to enter into an IDPO contract in accordance with DLAD 52.213-9012 INDEFINITE DELIVERY PURCHASE ORDER (IDPO) - BILATERAL (SEP 2012)and the following note:

2. DELIVERY ORDERS: The contractor agrees that it will accept delivery orders under the same terms and conditions specified in the award document. All additional orders will reference the basic contract.

3. CONTRACT MINIMUM/ MAXIUM: The Government (or the TSI Contractor) fulfills its minimum obligation when the contractor receives payment for 1 tire at the contract price. The Government (or the TSI Contractor) may elect to meet the contract minimum (1) by placing an order for a tire and paying the contractor for that tire or (2) by paying the contractor the contract price for 1 tire without taking delivery of a tire.

The aggregate dollar value for all orders placed for each award may not exceed $150,000.

C.4 REPRESENTATION: By submitting a quote in response to this solicitation, the Offeror agrees to provide items in accordance with the descriptions in the Schedule and that the items supplied are from the approved source(s).

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.
