The following have been added by full text:

AMENDMENT 11

This post-closing Amendment is intended for those Offerors who did not receive Phase 1 MATOC awards, but who have been included in the competitive range and have been sent Evaluation Notice (EN)/Discussion letters.

The purpose of this post-closing Amendment is as follows:

a.) Update Wage Determinations to their current versions. Note: After Phase 2 awards are made, the Government will update the Wage Determinations of all Phase 1 and Phase 2 MATOC awardees to ensure all contracts contain the same versions. Subsequent updates to the Wage Determinations will be incorporated into contracts annually prior to, or at execution of the option ordering period/year. Reference FAR 22.404‐6.

b.) Incorporate the following FAR and DFAR clauses: FAR 52.227‐09; DFARS 252.227‐7013, 7014, 7015, 7016, 7017, 7025, 7027, 7028, and 7037.

c.) Incorporate additional FAR clauses, including: FAR 52.203‐14 and 16; FAR 52.204‐ 2 Alt II, 15, 21, and 23; FAR 52.211‐8, Alt I; FAR 52.215‐10, 11, 13, 15, and 21; FAR 52.216‐32;

FAR 52.223‐20 and 21; FAR 52.225‐1, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 11; FAR 52.228‐14; FAR 52.232‐27 and 40; and FAR 52.236‐4; FAR 52.249‐3.

d.) Delete FAR clauses: FAR 52.215‐13 Dev.; FAR 52.249‐1 and 2.

Note: FAR 52.249‐2 Alt I remains in the solicitation.

e.) Incorporate FAR 52.204‐24 (Representation Regarding Certain Telecommunications and Video Surveillance Services or Equipment) and FAR 52.204‐25 (Prohibition on Contracting for Certain Telecommunication and Video Surveillance Services or Equipment. Offerors must complete the FAR 52.204‐24 (Representation Regarding Certain Telecommunications and Video Surveillance Services or Equipment) and submit with revised proposals.

Offerors submitting revised proposals for Phase 2 award consideration are requested to submit current documentation to demonstrate that they possess the financial resources (e.g. bank balances, lines of credit with banks and equipment suppliers, stock holdings) to perform the services required by the MATOC. Any information provided will be secured by the Contracting Officer and will not be used in the evaluation of proposals or the tradeoff analysis process as outlined in the Solicitation. Information may be used by the Contracting Officer to make a responsibility determination for those Offerors who are in line for an award or are in range for an award. Reference FAR Part 9. Providing this requested information with revised proposal submissions is voluntary. Financial responsibilty information provided should not be included in Volumes I – Technical, II – Past Performance, or III – Price.

By submitting a revised proposal, or notifying the Government of no changes in response to this notice, you are agreeing to make your entire proposal valid for another 180 calendar days from the date of revised proposal submission. If no response to this notice is received, your original proposal will remain expired and will receive no further consideration for award. Per the Evaluation Notice (EN)/Discussion letters, final proposal revisions shall be submitted via email or DoD SAFE no later than 11:00 am ET on October 27, 2020 to Ms. Barbara Cousins at Barbara.d.cousins.civ@mail.mil and Mr. Lane Gary at lane.m.gary.civ@mail.mil. The Government does not intend to engage in further discussions with offerors after receipt of revised proposals, but reserves the right to do so.

Offerors are required to acknowledge receipt of this post-closing Amendment.

This prohibition applies to the use of covered telecommunications equipment or services, regardless of whether that use is in performance of work under a Federal contract.

(c) Exceptions. This clause does not prohibit contractors from providing--

(d) Reporting requirement.

(1) In the event the Contractor identifies covered telecommunications equipment or services used as a substantial or essential component of any system, or as critical technology as part of any system, during contract performance, or the Contractor is notified of such by a subcontractor at any tier or by any other source, the Contractor shall report the information in paragraph (d)(2) of this clause to the Contracting Officer, unless elsewhere in this contract are established procedures for reporting the information; in the case of the Department of Defense, the Contractor shall report to the website at https://dibnet.dod.mil.

52.211-8 TIME OF DELIVERY. (JUN 1997) -- ALTERNATE I (APR 1984)

(a) The Government requires delivery to be made according to the following schedule:

REQUIRED DELIVERY SCHEDULE

[Contracting Officer insert specific details]

WITHIN DAYS AFTER

ITEM NO. QUANTITY DATE OF CONTRACT

TBD at task order level.

The Government will evaluate equally, as regards time of delivery, offers that propose delivery of each quantity within the applicable delivery period specified above. Offers that propose delivery that will not clearly fall within the applicable required delivery period specified above, will be considered nonresponsive and rejected. The Government reserves the right to award under either the required delivery schedule or the proposed delivery schedule, when an offeror offers an earlier delivery schedule than required above. If the offeror proposes no other delivery schedule, the required delivery schedule above will apply.

OFFEROR'S PROPOSED DELIVERY SCHEDULE

WITHIN DAYS AFTER

ITEM NO. QUANTITY DATE OF CONTRACT

(b) The delivery dates or specific periods above are based on the assumption that the Government will make award by TBD at task order level. Each delivery date in the delivery schedule above will be extended by the number of calendar days after the above date that the contract is in fact awarded. Attention is directed to the Contract Award provision of the solicitation that provides that a written award or acceptance of offer mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror results in a binding contract. Therefore, the offeror should compute the time available for performance beginning with the actual date of award, rather than the date the written notice of award is received from the Contracting Officer through the ordinary mails.

52.216-32 TASK-ORDER AND DELIVERY-ORDER OMBUDSMAN (SEPT 2019)

(a) In accordance with 41 U.S.C. 4106(g), the Agency has designated the following task-order and delivery-order Ombudsman for this contract. The Ombudsman must review complaints from the Contractor concerning all task-order and delivery-order actions for this contract and ensure the Contractor is afforded a fair opportunity for consideration in the award of orders, consistent with the procedures in the contract.

Mr. Dennis Longo, Competition Advocate, dennis.p.longo.civ@mail.mil.

(b) Consulting an ombudsman does not alter or postpone the timeline for any other process (e.g., protests).

(c) Before consulting with the Ombudsman, the Contractor is encouraged to first address complaints with the Contracting Officer for resolution. When requested by the Contractor, the Ombudsman may keep the identity of the concerned party or entity confidential, unless prohibited by law or agency procedure.

52.225-9 BUY AMERICAN—CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS (MAY 2014)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause--

Commercially available off-the-shelf (COTS) item—

(1) Means any item of supply (including construction material) that is--

(i) A commercial item (as defined in paragraph (1) of the definition at FAR 2.101);

(ii) Sold in substantial quantities in the commercial marketplace; and

(iii) Offered to the Government, under a contract or subcontract at any tier, without modification, in the same form in which it is sold in the commercial marketplace; and

(2) Does not include bulk cargo, as defined in 46 U.S.C. 40102(4) such as agricultural products and petroleum products.

Component means an article, material, or supply incorporated directly into a construction material.

Construction material means an article, material, or supply brought to the construction site by the Contractor or a subcontractor for incorporation into the building or work. The term also includes an item brought to the site preassembled from articles, materials, or supplies. However, emergency life safety systems, such as emergency lighting, fire alarm, and audio evacuation systems, that are discrete systems incorporated into a public building or work and that are produced as complete systems, are evaluated as a single and distinct construction material regardless of when or how the individual parts or components of those systems are delivered to the construction site.

Materials purchased directly by the Government are supplies, not construction material.

Cost of components means--

(1) For components purchased by the Contractor, the acquisition cost, including transportation costs to the place of incorporation into the construction material (whether or not such costs are paid to a domestic firm), and any applicable duty (whether or not a duty-free entry certificate is issued); or

(2) For components manufactured by the Contractor, all costs associated with the manufacture of the component, including transportation costs as described in paragraph (1) of this definition, plus allocable overhead costs, but excluding profit. Cost of components does not include any costs associated with the manufacture of the construction material.

Domestic construction material means--

(1) An unmanufactured construction material mined or produced in the United States;

(2) A construction material manufactured in the United States, if--

(i) The cost of its components mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States exceeds 50 percent of the cost of all its components. Components of foreign origin of the same class or kind for which nonavailability determinations have been made are treated as domestic; or

(ii) The construction material is a COTS item.

Foreign construction material means a construction material other than a domestic construction material.

United States means the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and outlying areas.

(b) Domestic preference.

(1) This clause implements 41 U.S.C. chapter 83, Buy American, by providing a preference for domestic construction material. In accordance with 41 U.S.C. 1907, the component test of the Buy American statute is waived for construction material that is a COTS item. (See FAR 12.505(a)(2)). The Contractor shall use only domestic construction material in performing this contract, except as provided in paragraphs (b)(2) and (b)(3) of this clause.

(2) This requirement does not apply to information technology that is a commercial item or to the construction materials or components listed by the Government as follows:

(3) The Contracting Officer may add other foreign construction material to the list in paragraph (b)(2) of this clause if the Government determines that

(i) The cost of domestic construction material would be unreasonable. The cost of a particular domestic construction material subject to the requirements of the Buy American Act is unreasonable when the cost of such material exceeds the cost of foreign material by more than 6 percent;

(ii) The application of the restriction of the Buy American Act to a particular construction material would be impracticable or inconsistent with the public interest; or

(iii) The construction material is not mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available commercial quantities of a satisfactory quality.

(c) Request for determination of inapplicability of the Buy American Act. (1)(i) Any Contractor request to use foreign construction material in accordance with paragraph (b)(3) of this clause shall include adequate information for Government evaluation of the request, including--

(A) A description of the foreign and domestic construction materials;

(B) Unit of measure;

(C) Quantity;

(D) Price;

(E) Time of delivery or availability;

(F) Location of the construction project;

(G) Name and address of the proposed supplier; and

(H) A detailed justification of the reason for use of foreign construction materials cited in accordance with paragraph (b)(3) of this clause.

(ii) A request based on unreasonable cost shall include a reasonable survey of the market and a completed price comparison table in the format in paragraph (d) of this clause.

(iii) The price of construction material shall include all delivery costs to the construction site and any applicable duty (whether or not a duty-free certificate may be issued).

(iv) Any Contractor request for a determination submitted after contract award shall explain why the Contractor could not reasonably foresee the need for such determination and could not have requested the determination before contract award. If the Contractor does not submit a satisfactory explanation, the Contracting Officer need not make a determination.

(2) If the Government determines after contract award that an exception to the Buy American statute applies and the Contracting Officer and the Contractor negotiate adequate consideration, the Contracting Officer will modify the contract to allow use of the foreign construction material. However, when the basis for the exception is the unreasonable price of a domestic construction material, adequate consideration is not less than the differential established in paragraph (b)(3)(i) of this clause.

(3) Unless the Government determines that an exception to the Buy American statute applies, use of foreign construction material is noncompliant with the Buy American statute.

(d) Data. To permit evaluation of requests under paragraph (c) of this clause based on unreasonable cost, the Contractor shall include the following information and any applicable supporting data based on the survey of suppliers:

Foreign and Domestic Construction Materials Price Comparison Construction material description Unit of measure Quantity Price (dollars) \1\ Item 1 Foreign construction material.... ........... ___ ........ ....... ………. ___ ................ ........ ___ Domestic construction material... ........ ___ ............... .............. ___ .................. ...... ___ Item 2 Foreign construction material.... ......... ___ ............. ........ ……. ___ ............... ......... ___ Domestic construction material... ....... ___ .................. ............. ___ ................. ....... ___ Include all delivery costs to the construction site and any applicable duty (whether or not a duty-free entry certificate is issued).
