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.

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.

NARRATIVE #12: PAST PERFORMANCE PROPOSAL AND EVALUATION

INFORMATION

(1) The government will conduct a performance risk assessment and the assessment will be used to assist in determining responsibility in accordance with (IAW) FAR 9.104.1 based upon the past performance of offerors and proposed subcontractors as it relates to probability of successfully performing the solicitation requirements.

(2) Offeror shall submit with proposal the information listed below for RELEVANT PAST PERFORMANCE ON THREE (3) CONTRACTS performed within the past three (3) years prior to closing of this solicitation. For services, contractor shall have performed under each contract for a minimum of one (1) year within the past three

(3) years. Each contract cited may be ongoing or complete provided it meets the one year performance criteria.

For equipment or supplies, contractor shall have completed each contract within the past three (3) years.

(3) For each contract, provide:

a. A description of your contract or subcontract (government or commercial). Government contracts are defined as those with the Federal government and agencies of state and local governments.

b. Name of contracting activity/commercial firm.

c. Contract Number.

d. Contract type (fixed price or cost reimbursable).

e. Total contract value.

f. Description of work/NSN, Part Number, Nomenclature.

g. Contracting officer/contract manager, telephone number, and email address.

h. Administrative contracting officer, if different from g. above, telephone number, and email address.

i. A brief summary of work performed under each contract cited.

j. Explanation of why contract or subcontract is considered relevant to proposed acquisition. If only a portion of cited contract is relevant, include in your explanation.

k. Information on problems encountered on the contract and actions taken to correct problems identified.

4. If offeror proposes use of major subcontractor(s) in performance of resultant contract, provide a description of the work to be performed (supplies or services) by each major subcontractor and the information specified above for each subcontractor identified as relevant to the work to be performed by the subcontractor. A significant or major subcontractor is that subcontractor expected to provide over 20 percent of the work effort or critical hardware, software, or services.

5. "Relevant past performance" is defined as performance similar in nature and in scope to work required by this acquisition. The government will screen contract information provided by offeror and will remove from consideration those contract references that are clearly unrelated to the type of effort sought.

6. The government will consider this information in its evaluation of performance risk for offeror and proposed major subcontractors. The government will make a reasonable effort to consider information on the contracts cited for offeror and for each major subcontractor.

a. The government reserves the right to evaluate fewer than three (3) contracts for any contractor should we be unsuccessful in obtaining required information from sources cited. In that case, contractor (or subcontractor) will be evaluated on the information available.

b. Should the government receive information on more than three (3) contracts, selection of those to be considered in evaluation will be based on the criteria stated previously.

7. The government reserves the right to consider information from other sources in its evaluation.

NARRATIVE #13: Prospective contractors may complete electronic annual representations and certifications at HTTP://ORCA.BPN.GOV in conjunction with required registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) contractor registration database (see FAR 4.1102). Prospective contractors shall update the representations and certifications submitted to ORCA as necessary, but at least annually, to ensure they are kept current, accurate, and complete. The representation of submission or update to ORCA.

NARRATIVE # 14: The contractor shall comply with Resource Conservation and Recovery Act

(RCRA) affirmative procurement (AP)(or 'buying recycled') requirements by giving preference in their purchasing process to products and practices that promote recycling and other environmentally friendly practices. The contractor is also responsible for insuring that all sub- contractors comply with AP requirements.

Except as specifically waived in writing, for reasons of price, performance or availability, any products in the attached EPA guideline items list provided by the contractor as part of the performance of this contract must meet the minimum percentage levels of recovered materials as specified to these standard contract terms and conditions. Please refer to the attached EPA list of designated recovered materials content products (attached).

On completion of work, contractor shall submit to the COR or Contract Administrator a completed “affirmative procurement reporting form” (attached) for actions taken under that specific order.

The contractor shall submit the attached "contractor request for waiver for non-EPA comprehensive guideline items" (attached) as written documentation to support the decision not to acquire items meeting the minimum content levels, based on one of the three justifications below:

(1) The product is not available from a sufficient number of sources to maintain a sufficient level of competition (i. e., available from two or more sources) or is not available at a reasonable price.

(2) The product is not available within a reasonable period of time.

(3) The product does not meet the performance standards in applicable specifications or fails to meet reasonable standards of the agency.

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

(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.
