Statement of Work DPW – LOTO Services

W911KF-18-Q-0009

Revised: 07 August 2018

1.0 Scope:

Anniston Army Depot’s (ANAD) Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) program consists of approximately 6,500 existing procedures for equipment and machinery with an estimated 6,300 pieces located at ANAD in Anniston, AL and an estimated 200 pieces located at Hill Air Force Base in Ogden, UT. Existing procedures at the point of use are compliant with Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standards for LOTO, which are contained in The Control of Hazardous Energy 29 CFR 1910.147.

Approximately 600 procedures will need to be modified or created new from a template as qualified equipment is discovered or added to ANAD property inventory. Any new LOTO procedures shall also be in accordance with 29 CFR 1910.147.

ANAD requires administration and implementation of LOTO program services at ANAD in compliance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 for a base period from time of award through December 2019 with 2 one year option periods. LOTO program services are not limited to, but shall include duties and parameters as identified in the following sections:

2.0 LOTO training for ANAD employees:

2.1 Contractor shall provide on-site OSHA compliant training on LOTO requirements for ANAD employees as needed or requested (estimated quarterly) by the Contracting Officer Representative (COR).

1. Reference: Section B – Schedule of Supplies/Services, beginning on page 8, requests pricing for a base period and 2 option periods. However, in the Statement of Work (SOW), Section 1.0 – Scope on page 64 and Section 3.0 Description of Services on page 75 both state that the services are “for a base period of 18 months with 3 one year option periods.”

Question: Please clarify the number of months of the base and option periods and the number of option periods.

ANSWER: There will be a base period and 2 option years. The Statement of Work has been revised to show the same years as what shows on the CLINS of the solicitation.

2. Reference: Section 3.2 of the SOW on page 65 asks that offerors “Perform a comprehensive audit for OSHA compliance on each piece of equipment in each building at ANAD as execution of contractor generated monthly plan. Audits are required on an estimated 6,500 pieces of equipment.” Section 4.2.1 of the SOW on page 68 asks that the “Contractor shall evenly distribute annual audit over period of performance, allowing for limited access during ANAD holidays and normal work schedule.”

Question: Should offerors assume that each of the 6,500 pieces of equipment are required to be audited annually, or should offerors assume that audits each of the 6,500 pieces of equipment are to be distributed over the contract period of performance (i.e., the 6,500 pieces of equipment are to be audited once of the term (base + option years) of the contract).

ANSWER: OSHA requires an annual (Jan to Dec) inspection of all LOTO Procedures RE:29 CFR 1910.147 (c)(6)(i). The 2018 Audit has already been completed. The remainder of 2018 will consist of the creation of new

LOTO Procedures, edits to existing procedures as identified, and Authorized Employee training. The Audit referenced in Section 4.2.1 shall be repeated annually starting in 2019.

3. Reference: SOW Section 1.0 – Scope on page 64 states that “approximately 600 procedures will need to be modified or created new”.

Question: Are offerors to assume 600 procedures each year of the contract or a total of 600 procedures over the contract period of performance.

ANSWER: Estimated 600 procedures each year...unable to predict exact number.

4. Have the authorized and affected employees have been identified in the current procedures?

ANSWER: No, the procedures do not identify who is qualified. An employee is either Authorized or Affected after attending the OSHA qualified LOTO Training. The Procedures are for use by Authorized employees.

5. How many of each designation of authorized and affected employees are there?

ANSWER: Affected employees: Could be up to total number employed at ANAD? Authorized employees:

Tracking 103 existing supervisor audits, estimated 10 to 20 employees recently hired, some will need the Authorized employee training.

6. The training is done quarterly, is there a minimum and/or maximum per training session of employees?

ANSWER: The quarterly schedule is just an estimate. More or less training shall be available as requested to meet the needs of ANAD.

7. How many operators/employees in total need to be part of the required training?

ANSWER: The LOTO Program contract is to support any future training needs by ANAD. I can offer some background training information...2016 was the kickoff year for changes and improvements to the LOTO Program, and during 2016, 162 employees were trained as Authorized Employees. I am still waiting on the exact number, but 20 to 40 Authorized Employees received training in 2017. I am not aware of any plans that would have a significant impact on the future training requirements, but the potential contractor should be able to support any LOTO training needs for ANAD.

8. Will there be access to the authorized and affected employees for data gathering?

ANSWER: No Reference material on LOTO requirements available in 29 CFR 1910.147 and the solicitation package. All contractors performing Procedure Audits and conducting training shall be LOTO Authorized.

9. Are there lodging capabilities available at the Anniston Army Depot or Hill Air Force Base?

ANSWER: NO

10. Is this a new requirement or is there an incumbent currently performing LOTO services? If an incumbent exists, are they allowed to bid on this solicitation?

ANSWER: NEW REQUIREMENT

11. How many Past Performance Evaluations are we able to include and how many do you require?

ANSWER: 3

12. How many authorized employees?

ANSWER: Tracking 103 existing supervisor audits, estimated 10 to 20 employees recently hired, some will need the Authorized employee training.

13. For LOTO training, how many employees will be required to receive training? If there are 1500 buildings, how many personnel would require LOTO training?

ANSWER: The LOTO Program contract is to support any future training needs by ANAD. I can offer some background training information...2016 was the kickoff year for changes and improvements to the LOTO Program, and during 2016, 162 employees were trained as Authorized Employees. I am still waiting on the exact number, but 20 to 40 Authorized Employees received training in 2017. I am not aware of any plans that would have a significant impact on the future training requirements, but the potential contractor should be able to support any LOTO training needs for ANAD.

14. We use 40 mil laminate that is UV rated. This exceeds your solicitations standards. Is this acceptable?

ANSWER: The 40 mil laminate should be ok, as long as transparency is not compromised.

15. What are the energy source identifying tags? Who provides them?

Your solicitation is requiring the contractor to mark the energy sources with a waterproof identifier? Which type of identifier have they used on the past. I would think that for best practices, it should be kept uniform throughout the 1500 buildings.

ANSWER: Provided by contractor as way of identifying each energy source that must be isolated.

The manufacturer or model numbers are unknown. The source identifiers are 1.5 inch x 3 inch hard plates and with a hole for attachment via plastic tie, or attachment via an adhesive backing. Each identifier is color matched to a hazardous energy type, and numbered (1,2,3...) to identify each power source for the energy type.

16. At the beginning of the solicitation, there are ITEM NO. 1 - 12. What is the difference in these items? They appear to repeat each other.

ANSWER: 1 Base year with a CLIN or line item to price for Procedure, Training, Audits and Contract Manpower Reporting. 2 Option years to price the same thing for each year.

17. What software is currently being used to generate procedures and track audits?

ANSWER: Microsoft Excel and Adobe

18. What will be the process to ensure ANAD personnel are made available to attend training?

ANSWER: RE SOW 2.1 As requested by COR.

19. Will the contractor be held accountable to ensure ANAD personnel attend training?

ANSWER: RE SOW 2.1 and OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 Contractor shall provide COR with training roster.

20. When ANAD personnel miss scheduled training opportunities, will the contractor be expected to offer make-up training sessions in addition to normally-scheduled training?

ANSWER: RE SOW 2.1 Contractor shall provide training as needed or requested by COR

21. How will the contractor be notified of the existence of new equipment or equipment that has been relocated or equipment that lacks a procedure (SOW 3.2)?

ANSWER: Any equipment that is identified will require a LOTO Procedure per OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147. Not limited to communication with COR, visual observation during annual audit, other methods.

22. The requirement to “confirm” that all energy sources are accounted for and that the methods and steps are accurate for equipment to be completely at a zero energy state (SOW 3.2.3.3 and 3.2.3.4), will by definition necessitate that the equipment be locked out and tried.

a. Will the government allow this to be done?

b. Who will do it?

c. If the government won’t allow it, what is the expectation?

ANSWER: RE SOW 3.2.5 The LOTO auditor must be an Authorized Employee. The creation and audit of LOTO Procedures shall not interfere with Production schedule.

23. Are current equipment’s LOTO procedures digital?

ANSWER: Yes. (also RE 4.1)

24. Who is responsible for providing locks and devices? Such as: Locks and tags, Hasps and lock boxes for group lockout, Specialized valve devices for non-lockable valves, Plug devices to lock out electrical plug disconnects, Breaker devices, Fuse devices, LOTO tags to use with the locks, and Specialized locks that are exclusively used for

LOTO.

ANSWER: Locks and devices provided by ANAD, but devise needed must be identified in LOTO Procedure (3.1.8 as branch from 3.1).

25. Can the work be completed in the mentioned locations one after one or do we have to be present in both locations at the same time?

ANSWER: Should be described as part of the plan submitted by contractor. An audit of all existing LOTO Procedures must be completed every year per OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147.

26. What is the max. Manpower we are allowed to bring with us?

ANSWER: The audit of existing and/or creation of new procedures shall not interfere with production schedule.

Defer to Security or Human Resources or other group for Manpower limits.

27. Will there be office space and materials such as Computers, Printers, Internet, GP Card Stock, Laminating materials and equipment, Camera and Metal grommets provided to us?

ANSWER: NO permanent office space available. Training room available as requested and scheduled by COR.

28. Please provide delivery schedule in Section F (unable to find in solicitation)

a. Reference page 6 of 63, Item 12 (Guidance in Preparation of Offer), Part 3

ANSWER: The period of performance is detailed in the delivery information for each Contract Line Item Number

(CLIN).

29. What will be the process to ensure ANAD personnel are made available to make these determinations?

ANSWER: All communications are to be coordinated with the Contracting Officer's Representative, (COR) who will be appointed at the time of award. The Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) will coordinate the communications with the Contracting Officer to ensure that all aspects of the Government's Statement of Work are met.

30. Section 1.0 contradicts section 3.3. According to the SOW, if it needs revision it will need to meets Section

3.3.1. Does current equipment meet Section 3.3.1?

ANSWER: No contradiction. Audit of existing is to confirm compliance of LOTO Procedures to OSHA 29 CFR

1910.147 which would be the same requirement for new LOTO Procedures.

31. Will we have access to Document Control, Quality Assurance Programs including software for quality assurance audits & surveillance of products and processes for conformance to specifications and to detect processing and technical documentation deficiencies and recommend corrective action?

ANSWER: The Contractor shall not have access to the Government network, but should provide all deliverables in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Statement of Work.

32. Who is accountable for training all other employees whose work operations are or may be in an area where energy control procedures may be utilized (29 CFR 1910.147(c)(7)(i)(C)?

ANSWER: The Depot handles that training through NEO or specialized LOTO Awareness training.

33. Is there a prescriptive process that is to be used to determine that:

a. The procedures are understood (SOW 3.2.5.2)?

b. The procedures are being followed (SOW 3.2.5.3)?

ANSWER: In accordance with the Government's Statement of Work, Paragraph 3.2.5, "The LOTO auditor must be an Authorized Employee, according to CFR 1910.147, and able to determine whether:

3.2.5.1 The audited Procedures are adequate to effectively isolate all energy sources.

3.2.5.2 The Procedures are understood.

3.2.5.3 The Procedures are being followed by employees.

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 System for Award Management (SAM) for your company are the same individuals that will submit invoices through WAWF before using WAWF. The previous ‘Central Contractor Registration (CCR)’ system has been migrated to the System for Award Management (SAM) and accessible at www.sam.gov. For SAM 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.
