(DLA LAND-

WARREN)

This solicitation contains standard DLAD provision 52.215-9023, Reverse Auction. This Request For Quotes (RFQ) solicitation will use the simplified acquisition procedures of FAR Part 13. Therefore, the following terminology in the reverse auction provision is changed as follows: replace proposal with quote, replace offer with quote, replace offeror with quoter, and replace final proposal revision with quotation.

After receipt of quotes, the contracting officer will determine if a reverse auction will be conducted. However, the use of a reverse auction does not preclude additional methods of price and/or cost analysis. The quoted prices received up until the start of the auction will be evaluated for award in accordance with the evaluation factors listed in the solicitation. After the start of the auction, the only way to revise prices is to participate in the auction by placing bids. Therefore, quotes received after the start of the auction will not be considered unless the contracting officer determines further correspondence is required.

Name of Offeror or Contractor:

PIIN/SIIN MOD/AMD

5 52.211-4015 CONFIGURATION CONTROL - ENGINEERING CHANGES DEC/2005

(TACOM)

(a) DEFINITIONS:

(1) Engineering Change Proposal (ECP). An ECP is a suggestion that we (the Government) permanently change some requirement of the Technical Data Package (TDP). ECPs can be issued before or during contract performance. NOTE: The current Government Standard allows us ninety days to process routine ECPs. If you (the contractor) need a response in less than ninety days to meet contract requirements, you should consider submitting a deviation along with your ECP.

(2) Notice of Revision (NOR). A NOR describes the proposed changes to a technical document being requested by an ECP.

(3) Value Engineering Change Proposal (VECP). A proposal that --

(i) Requires a change to the instant contract; and

(ii) Results in reducing the overall projected cost to the agency without impairing essential functions or characteristics; provided, that it does not involve a change --

(A) In deliverable end item quantities only;

(B) In research and development (R&D) end items or R&D test quantities that is due solely to results of previous testing under this contract; or

(C) To the contract type only.

(4) Request for Deviation (RFD). A RFD is a one-time request to deviate from TDP requirements. You must submit your deviation request once you realize that you desire to deviate from the TDP requirements. You can request a deviation for a specific number of parts or the entire contract quantity.

(b) When will TACOM start processing change requests? TACOM won't start processing any ECP, VECP, or RFD until we receive the

ACO's comments (see paragraph (e) below) and the ECP, VECP, or RFD documentation.

(c) Contractor Responsibility. ECPs, VECPs, and RFD shall contain information per the instructions outlined on the Data Delivery

Descriptions (DDDs) which can be found at the following website: http://contracting.tacom.army.mil/engr/engrchange.htm. Forms for preparing an ECP, VECP, or a RFD can also be found at this website. You may use other media, as long as you give us all the information outlined in the DDDs.

(1) Identify the two-digit Weapon System Code (WSC) on your submittal. The WSC for this procurement is PN.

(2) The Contractor shall submit ECPs/VECPs/RFDs to the Government electronically. You must use one of the following electronic mediums: 3 1/2 inch disk, 650 megabyte CD ROM, or E-mail. (E-mail files must be sized 3.5 mb or less.) Identify the software application, and version, that you used to create each file submitted.

(3) ECPs/VECPs/RFDs submitted in paper form are unacceptable and will be returned. You must use one of the following electronic formats:

(i) Files readable using these Microsoft 97 Office Products or later versions: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, or Access.

Spreadsheets must be sent in a file format that includes all formulae, macro and format information. Print image is not acceptable.

(ii) Files in Adobe PDF (Portable Document Format).

(iii) Files in HTML (Hypertext Markup Language). HTML documents must not contain active links to live Internet sites or pages. All linked information must be contained within your electronic ECPs/VECPs/RFDs and be accessible offline.

(iv) Other electronic formats. Before preparing your ECPs, VECPs or RFDs in any other electronic format, please e-mail the engineer, copy-furnished to the buyer and ACO, to obtain a decision as to the format's acceptability. Failure to e-mail the engineer to seek an alternate format's acceptability may result in rejection of your submission. All alternate methods must be at no cost to the Government. NOTE: The above formats may be submitted in compressed form using self-extracting files.

(d) Submittal Procedures for ECPs/VECPs/RFDs.

7 49

Name of Offeror or Contractor:

PIIN/SIIN MOD/AMD

(1) Send one copy of the ECP, VECP or RFD in electronic format to your ACO.

(2) Send one copy of the ECP, VECP or RFD in electronic format to the buyer listed on the solicitation/ contract document.

WARNING - Submit complete, legible, virus free packages per paragraphs 1 and 2 above, or we may return your ECP/VECP/RFD without processing them.

(e) ACO Responsibility. Within ten working days from the day you receive the contractor's request, the ACO must prepare Comments on the ECP, VECP, or RFD in electronic format, and forward it as follows:

Email a copy of the contractor's request and ACO comments (DD Form 1998) to the buyer identified in block 7 of the solicitation cover sheet (SF 33), block 5 on the Standard Form 26, or block 6 on the DD Form 1155. Indicate end item application (if known) in subject line, along with the NSN and contract number.

(f) Approval of ECPs, VECPs and RFDs.

(1) ECPs should be used to make permanent changes in the Government Technical Data Package (TDP). Contractual relief should be requested using a Request for Deviation. This is because the Government requires more time to analyze any proposal to permanently change the specification or TDP. Cost saving improvements to the TDP should be submitted as a VECP, if a VE clause is contained in the contract.

(2) ECPs. TACOM will review and make a decision within the ninety day timeframe. Notification of our decision will be made by the contracting officer or representative.

(3) RFDs. Decision on RFDs will be made within 30 days from the date we receive them from the ACO.

(g) Processing Emergency and Urgent ECPs. Ordinarily, ECPs submitted by the contractor will be deemed routine. If you submit an

ECP that you consider to be an emergency or urgent (as defined in paragraph 11 of DDD for ECPs), you must immediately notify the PCO.

TACOM will review the criticality of the ECP, and, if we determine that it is urgent or critical, we'll follow the appropriate processing time-frames as outlined in paragraph 11 of the DDD for ECPs.

(h) Reminder - Only the PCO can change the Contract. NO OTHER GOVERNMENT REPRESENTATIVE is authorized to make a commitment for, or bind the Government.

(i) RFDs shall contain sufficient pricing data to determine if a downward equitable adjustment to the contract is required.

(j) Questions.

(1) Questions about preparation and submittal of change request should be directed to the Government Quality Assurance

Representative (QAR).

(2) Questions about the status of change requests you've already submitted, contact the buyer. You can find the buyer's name, number and e-mail address in block 7 of the solicitation cover sheet (SF 33), block 5 on the Standard Form 26, or block 6 on the DD Form

1155.

(a) Offerors are encouraged to propose a defect prevention strategy in lieu of lot acceptance inspection and testing requirement cited in the technical data package. The Government recognizes that industry has developed numerous prevention based strategies which result in reduced process variation and promote continuous process improvement initiatives. Use of alternatives to lot acceptance sampling can provide offerors the latitude of implementing prevention based programs that are suitable to their particular mode of operation. Offerors are encouraged to submit their alternative proposals prior to award. Although the Government will entertain post award requests, there is no guarantee such requests will be accepted.

(b) Requests to use alternatives to lot acceptance sampling shall be provided to the Contracting Officer for review and approval or disapproval. Such request shall include:

12 49

Name of Offeror or Contractor:

PIIN/SIIN MOD/AMD

(1) Identification of the specific inspections and tests to be reduced or eliminated.

(2) A description of your prevention based program. This should include such topics as training program and the performance of audits.

(3) A description of the tools used to monitor and control the specific processes being evaluated. This should include such topics as criteria for determining out of control conditions and procedures to be used when an out of control condition is detected.

(4) The results of a process performance study, and if available, the results of a process capability study.

(5) For SPC data to be used as an alternative to lot acceptance sampling, the following conditions shall be met:

(i) The process is in a state of statistical control using SPC control chart methods.

(ii) Variable data: for Critical characteristics a CPK =/> 2.00 (or equivalent capability) is achieved; for Major characteristics a CPK =/> 1.33 (or equivalent capability) is achieved.

(iii) Attribute data: for Critical Characteristics a process average of 100% of the product conforming to the specification; for Major characteristics a process average of 99.9937% of the product conforming to the specification.

(c) Proposals offered after award. The Contracting Officer is responsible for accepting or rejecting the alternate lot acceptance procedure submitted by the contractor. The contractor may submit an alternate lot acceptance procedure at any time during the performance of this contract. The Contracting Officer is responsible for accepting or rejecting the alternate procedure within 30 days of receipt. If the Government needs more time evaluate the alternate procedure, the Contracting Officer shall notify the contractor in writing, giving the reasons and the anticipated decision date. The contractor may withdraw its proposal at anytime prior to its incorporation by contract modification. Because offerors may withdraw their proposal at anytime, the Contracting Officer's failure to timely accept or reject the proposal shall not constitute grounds for claim against the Government. Any proposed and accepted procedure is not accepted, the Contracting Officer shall provide the contractor with written notification, explaining the reasons for rejection.

(d) Any equitable adjustment resulting from approval of an alternate lot acceptance procedure described in paragraph (c) above will be handled in accordance with the Changes clause of this contract.

(5) Coal or combustibles such as firewood.

(6) Agricultural products such as seeds, grains, or animal feed.

"Case" means either a MIL-STD-129 defined exterior container within a palletized unit load or a MIL-STD-129 defined individual shipping container.

"Electronic Product Code\TM\ (EPC)" means an identification scheme for universally identifying physical objects via RFID tags and other means. The standardized EPC\TM\ data consists of an EPC\TM\ (or EPC\TM\ identifier) that uniquely identifies an individual object, as well as an optional filter value when judged to be necessary to enable effective and efficient reading of the EPC\TM\ tags. In addition to this standardized data, certain classes of EPC\TM\ tags will allow user-defined data. The EPC\TM\ Tag Data Standards will define the length and position of this data, without defining its content.

"EPCglobal" means a subscriber-driven organization comprised of industry leaders and organizations focused on creating global standards for the adoption of passive RFID technology.

"Exterior container" means a MIL-STD-129 defined container, bundle, or assembly that is sufficient by reason of material, design, and construction to protect unit packs and intermediate containers and their contents during shipment and storage. It can be a unit pack or a container with a combination of unit packs or intermediate containers. An exterior container may or may not be used as a shipping container.

"Palletized unit load" means a MIL-STD-129 defined quantity of items, packed or unpacked, arranged on a pallet in a specified manner and secured, strapped, or fastened on the pallet so that the whole palletized load is handled as a single unit. A palletized or skidded load is not considered to be a shipping container. A loaded 463L System pallet is not considered to be a palletized unit load. Refer to the

Defense Transportation Regulation, DoD 4500.9-R, Part II, Chapter 203, for marking of 463L System pallets.

"Passive RFID tag" means a tag that reflects energy from the reader/interrogator or that receives and temporarily stores a small amount of energy from the reader/interrogator signal in order to generate the tag response. The only acceptable tags are EPC Class 1 passive

RFID tags that meet the EPCglobal\TM\ Class 1 Generation 2 standard.

"Radio frequency identification (RFID)" means an automatic identification and data capture technology comprising one or more reader/interrogators and one or more radio frequency transponders in which data transfer is achieved by means of suitably modulated inductive or radiating electromagnetic carriers.

"Shipping container" means a MIL-STD-129 defined exterior container that meets carrier regulations and is of sufficient strength, by reason of material, design, and construction, to be shipped safely without further packing (e.g., wooden boxes or crates, fiber and metal drums, and corrugated and solid fiberboard boxes).
