PROVISION #2: WAWF PROCEDURES

If your order WILL BE PAID BY DFAS (not by credit card) and contains DFARS Clause 252.232-7003, Electronic Submission of Payment Requests, you must submit your invoice through Wide Area Workflow (WAWF). This clause requires invoices for supplies and services purchased by the DoD be submitted via electronic means. The Wide Area Workflow system satisfies this mandatory requirement. WAWF can be accessed on the internet at https://wawf.eb.mil/

Ensure the Electronic Business POCs listed in the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) for your company are the same individuals that will submit invoices through WAWF before using WAWF. CCR has been migrated to the System for Award Management (SAM) and accessible at www.sam.gov. For CCR access and navigation issues, follow the instruction provided at “User Guides and Helpful Hints” on SAM Home page.

If your Electronic Business (EB) POCs are correct, contact the WAWF helpdesk at 1-866-618- 5988 or by e-mail at cscassig@ogden.disa.mil and ask them to establish a group for your CAGE code. The group administrator will also have to call the WAWF helpdesk to request account activation. Once the group is established and the account is activated, you will be able to create a Combination Invoice/Receiving report (SUPPLIES/MATERIALS) or a 2 in 1 Invoice (SERVICES/EQUIPMENT) using the codes below and instructions available from our contract administrator/buyer.

Questions concerning payment should be directed to the responsible Defense Finance Accounting Services (DFAS). Please have the order number and invoice number ready when calling about payment status.

The accounts payable mailing address can be located in Block 18a of your order. You can easily access payment information using the DFAS web site at http://www.dfas.mil. Your purchase order/contract number or invoice will be required to inquire status of your payment. Go to DFAS on the web at: www/dfas.mil/money/vendor.

(End of clause)

52.0000-4408 INSTALLATION SECURITY

The Anniston Army Depot (ANAD) is currently operating on a heightened state of security awareness and enforcement due to possible terrorist threats. Due to this heightened state of security, it is imperative that no unauthorized materials of any type be brought onto or left unattended on the installation. For this reason the Contractor must have a process in place to receive and store materials and have visibility of the location of those materials at all times while on ANAD. This includes construction materials, equipment, and miscellaneous items.

This visibility/accountability of materials applies to the Contractor, its subcontractors, and its material suppliers.

Further, all Contractor, subcontractor, and material supplier employees are prohibited from bringing personal belongings of any nature onto the installation if such items are to be left unattended at any time.

The Contractor is further required to have a plan of action for implementing these procedures and must submit it to the Contracting Officer upon request. This plan of action must include a provision for informing all employees and subcontractors of these procedures. The plan of action must also address monitoring and procedures the Contractor has in place to ensure compliance with this contractual provision.

Should the Contractor fail to comply with this mandatory contractual provision, the Contractor may be held responsible for all direct and indirect cost incurred by the Government in identifying, securing, segregating, removing, and otherwise properly disposing of improper or abandoned materials/equipment.

52.212-1 INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT 2015)

(a) North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code and small business size standard. The NAICS code and small business size standard for this acquisition appear in Block 10 of the solicitation cover sheet (SF 1449). However, the small business size standard for a concern which submits an offer in its own name, but which proposes to furnish an item which it did not itself manufacture, is 500 employees.

(b) Submission of offers. Submit signed and dated offers to the office specified in this solicitation at or before the exact time specified in this solicitation. Offers may be submitted on the SF 1449, letterhead stationery, or as otherwise specified in the solicitation. As a minimum, offers must show--

(1) The solicitation number;

(2) The time specified in the solicitation for receipt of offers;

(3) The name, address, and telephone number of the offeror;

(4) A technical description of the items being offered in sufficient detail to evaluate compliance with the requirements in the solicitation. This may include product literature, or other documents, if necessary;

(5) Terms of any express warranty;

(6) Price and any discount terms;

(7) "Remit to" address, if different than mailing address;

(8) A completed copy of the representations and certifications at FAR 52.212-3 (see FAR 52.212-3(b) for those representations and certifications that the offeror shall complete electronically);

(9) Acknowledgment of Solicitation Amendments;

(10) Past performance information, when included as an evaluation factor, to include recent and relevant contracts for the same or similar items and other references (including contract numbers, points of contact with telephone numbers and other relevant information); and

(11) If the offer is not submitted on the SF 1449, include a statement specifying the extent of agreement with all terms, conditions, and provisions included in the solicitation. Offers that fail to furnish required representations or information, or reject the terms and conditions of the solicitation may be excluded from consideration.

(c) Period for acceptance of offers. The offeror agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 30 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of offers, unless another time period is specified in an addendum to the solicitation.

(d) Product samples. When required by the solicitation, product samples shall be submitted at or prior to the time specified for receipt of offers. Unless otherwise specified in this solicitation, these samples shall be submitted at no expense to the Government, and returned at the sender's request and expense, unless they are destroyed during preaward testing.

(e) Multiple offers. Offerors are encouraged to submit multiple offers presenting alternative terms and conditions or commercial items for satisfying the requirements of this solicitation. Each offer submitted will be evaluated separately.

(f) Late submissions, modifications, revisions, and withdrawals of offers:

(1) Offerors are responsible for submitting offers, and any modifications, revisions, or withdrawals, so as to reach the Government office designated in the solicitation by the time specified in the solicitation. If no time is specified in the solicitation, the time for receipt is 4:30 p.m., local time, for the designated Government office on the date that offers or revisions are due.

(2)(i) Any offer, modification, revision, or withdrawal of an offer received at the Government office designated in the solicitation after the exact time specified for receipt of offers is “late” and will not be considered unless it is received before award is made, the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late offer would not unduly delay the acquisition; and--

(A) If it was transmitted through an electronic commerce method authorized by the solicitation, it was received at the initial point of entry to the Government infrastructure not later than 5:00 p.m. one working day prior to the date specified for receipt of offers; or

(B) There is acceptable evidence to establish that it was received at the Government installation designated for receipt of offers and was under the Government's control prior to the time set for receipt of offers; or

(C) If this solicitation is a request for proposals, it was the only proposal received.

(ii) However, a late modification of an otherwise successful offer, that makes its terms more favorable to the Government, will be considered at any time it is received and may be accepted.

(3) Acceptable evidence to establish the time of receipt at the Government installation includes the time/date stamp of that installation on the offer wrapper, other documentary evidence of receipt maintained by the installation, or oral testimony or statements of Government personnel.

(4) If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal Government processes so that offers cannot be received at the Government office designated for receipt of offers by the exact time specified in the solicitation, and urgent Government requirements preclude amendment of the solicitation or other notice of an extension of the closing date, the time specified for receipt of offers will be deemed to be extended to the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day on which normal Government processes resume.

(5) Offers may be withdrawn by written notice received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of offers.

Oral offers in response to oral solicitations may be withdrawn orally. If the solicitation authorizes facsimile offers, offers may be withdrawn via facsimile received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of offers, subject to the conditions specified in the solicitation concerning facsimile offers. An offer may be withdrawn in person by an offeror or its authorized representative if, before the exact time set for receipt of offers, the identity of the person requesting withdrawal is established and the person signs a receipt for the offer.

(g) Contract award (not applicable to Invitation for Bids). The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror's initial offer should contain the offeror's best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.

(h) Multiple awards. The Government may accept any item or group of items of an offer, unless the offeror qualifies the offer by specific limitations. Unless otherwise provided in the Schedule, offers may not be submitted for quantities less than those specified. The Government reserves the right to make an award on any item for a quantity less than the quantity offered, at the unit prices offered, unless the offeror specifies otherwise in the offer.
