Note: NSN 1560-01-566-7245FL & NSN 1560-01-567-0073FL shall be used interchangeably on all supporting documents included in this requirement.

Note: It is the intention of DLA Aviation at Oklahoma City to allow a 45-Day Solicitation period for Boeing Rights Guard applicable acquisitions with days 1 through 15 being allotted to allow time for additional potential sources to submit requests for, and receive, the BRG Technical Data Package CD-ROM. This additional time over-and-above the standard 30-day Solicitation timeframe is a courtesy and serves as constructive notice that is the affirmative responsibility of potential offerors to monitor the FBO and quickly process requests for the BRG Technical Data Package CD_ROM and that Solicitation Closing Dates WILL NOT be extended for the sole-purpose to allow for additional time to propose.

Pricing Note: In order to maintain unit price integrity, contractor must individually price Line Items or clearly state that there is a "Zero Dollar Charge" for these items.

First Article Note: First Article Offeror will be accepted under Bid-A (CLINs 0001AA, 0001AB, 0001AC, 0001AD, and 0001AE).

Quantity Note for CLIN 0001AE and 0002: The current required quantity is 3 ea. However, the final required quantity may change. Therefore, offeror(s) are required to propose prices for the specific quantity ranges identified in the Solicitation. The current overall possible quantity range for this acquisition is between a Minimum quantity of 1 ea and Maximum quantity of 6

ea. If the specific quantity ranges identified in the Solicitation do not provide the best pricing option for your company business model, then the contractor has the option of identifying within Provision 52.207-4, those suggested quantity ranges, for informational/planning purposes only, that yield your best prices to the Government. Offeror(s) are still required to submit proposals for the specific quantity ranges identified in the Solicitation.

The Final fixed-quantity of this requirement is at the sole discretion of the Government and the Government reserves the right to award no contract at all depending on the quality and prices of proposal(s) received. The final buy quantity will be re-evaluated and determined upon receipt of proposal(s) and the closing date of the Solicitation.

CONTRACT CLAUSES

5352.201-9101 OMBUDSMAN (OCT 2019)

(IAW AFFARS 5301.9103)

(a) An ombudsman has been appointed to hear and facilitate the resolution of concerns from offerors, potential offerors, and others for this acquisition. When requested, the ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality as to the source of the concern.

The existence of the ombudsman does not affect the authority of the program manager, contracting officer, or source selection official. Further, the ombudsman does not participate in the evaluation of proposals, the source selection process, or the adjudication of protests or formal contract disputes. The ombudsman may refer the interested party to another official who can resolve the concern.

(b) Before consulting with an ombudsman, interested parties must first address their concerns, issues, disagreements, and/or recommendations to the contracting officer for resolution. Consulting an ombudsman does not alter or postpone the timelines for any other processes (e.g., agency level bid protests, GAO bid protests, requests for debriefings, employee-employer actions, contests of OMB Circular A-76 competition performance decisions).

(c) The Competition Advocate (CA) at each contracting activity/office (as defined in DLAD 2.101) shall act as the ombudsman and attempt to resolve contractor complaints. DLA AVIATION/AOCA’s CA/ombudsman can be reached at (405) 734-8241, facsimile (405) 734-8129. Complaints which cannot be so resolved shall be forwarded to the HQ through J-72 for resolution by the DLA competition advocate. Each activity is responsible for developing procedures for executing the duties and responsibilities of its local ombudsman.

(d) The ombudsman has no authority to render a decision that binds the agency.

(e) Do not contact the ombudsman to request copies of the solicitation, verify offer due date, or clarify technical requirements.

Such inquiries shall be directed to the contracting officer.

(The above Clause/Provision has been modified.)

(IAW DFARS 204.804-70)

(a) At the conclusion of all applicable closeout requirements of Federal Acquisition Regulation 4.804, the Government and Contractor shall mutually agree on the residual dollar amount remaining on the contract. Both the Government and Contractor agree to waive payment of any residual dollar amount of $1,000 or less to which either party may be entitled at the time of contract closeout.

(b) A residual dollar amount includes all money owed to either party at the end of the contract and as a result of the contract, excluding amounts connected in any way with taxation or a violation of law or regulation.

(c) For purposes of determining residual dollar amounts, offsets (e.g., across multiple contracts or orders) may be considered only to the extent permitted by law.

52.209-1 QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS (FEB 1995)

(IAW FAR 9.206-2)

(a) Definition: "Qualification Requirement," as used in this clause, means a Government requirement for testing or other quality assurance demonstration that must be completed before award.

(b) One or more qualification requirements apply to the supplies or services covered by this contract. For those supplies or services requiring qualification, whether the covered product or service is an end item, the product, manufacturer, or source must have demonstrated that it meets the standards prescribed for qualification before award of this contract. The product, manufacturer, or source must be qualified at the time of award whether or not the name of the product, manufacturer, or source is actually included on a qualified products list, qualified manufacturers list, or qualified bidders list. Offerors should contact the agency activity designated below to obtain all requirements that they or their products or services, or their subcontractors or their products or services, must satisfy to become qualified and to arrange for an opportunity to demonstrate their abilities to meet the standards specified for qualification.

Item Name _________________________________

(d) Even though a product or service subject to a qualification requirement is not itself an end item under this contract, the product, manufacturer, or source must nevertheless be qualified at the time of award of this contract. This is necessary whether the Contractor or a subcontractor will ultimately provide the product or service in question. If, after award, the Contracting Officer discovers that an applicable qualification requirement was not in fact met at the time of award, the Contracting Officer may either terminate this contract for default or allow performance to continue if adequate consideration is offered and the action is determined to be otherwise in the Government's best interests.

(e) If an offeror, manufacturer, source, product, or service has met the qualification requirement but is not yet on a qualified products list, qualified manufacturers list, or qualified bidders list, the offeror must submit evidence of qualification prior to award of this contract. Unless determined to be in the Government's interest, award of this contract shall not be delayed to permit an offeror to submit evidence of qualification.

(f) Any change in location or ownership of the plant where a previously qualified product or service was manufactured or performed requires reevaluation of the qualification. Similarly, any change in location or ownership of a previously qualified manufacturer or source requires reevaluation of the qualification. The reevaluation must be accomplished before the date of award.

52.209-3 FIRST ARTICLE APPROVAL--CONTRACTOR TESTING (SEP 1989)
