26. Legal compliance: The Contractor shall comply with all Federal, State, and Local Laws, codes and regulations applicable to his performance under this contract, and shall be solely responsible for all costs associated with said compliance.

27. Contract performance:

Purpose. IAW with FAR Subpart 42.1500 contractor past performance information (PPI) is relevant information for future source selection purposes regarding a contractor’s actions under previously awarded contracts. It includes, for example, the contractor's record of conforming to contract requirements and to standards of good workmanship; the contractor's record of forecasting and controlling costs; the contractor's adherence to contract schedules, including the administrative aspects of performance; the contractor's history of reasonable and cooperative behavior and commitment to customer satisfaction; and generally, the contractor's business-like concern for the interest of the customer. Contractor past performance information is one of the tools that support Army efforts to acquire best value and is used to evaluate performance risk in source selection. The feedback provided by the government to the contractor in collecting PPI, and the knowledge that PPI will be used in future source selection decisions, should result in improved performance and a greater contractor focus on customer satisfaction.

Contractor Performance Assessment Reports System (CPARS): CPARS shall be prepared IAW AFARS Subpart 42 upon physical completion of the contract. If the period of performance will exceed 18 months, an “interim” assessment report shall be prepared at the completion of 12 months performance and annually thereafter until the contract is physically complete. An out-of-cycle or “addendum” report may be prepared if there is a need to record an extraordinary event prior to the next regularly scheduled evaluation or if it is necessary to report a meaningful occurrence during the period between physical completion of the contract and contract closeout. Additionally, addendum reports may be prepared to record contractor’s performance relative to contract closeout and other administrative requirements (e.g.

final indirect cost proposals, technical data, etc.).

Completion Due Date. The government will complete the CPARS within 60 days after the end of the assessment rating period (if applicable).

Evaluators. The Contracting Officer and the Contracting Officer’s Representative will jointly complete the performance assessment.

Contracts Performance Elements. The contractor’s performance shall be assessed in accordance with elements and rating system set forth in AFARS Subpart 42.

Contractor Review. The Contracting Officer will furnish a copy of the CPARS to the contractor requesting that the contractor submit comments, rebutting statements, and/or additional information to the Contracting Officer within 30 calendar days of receipt. Failure to respond within the designated timeframe will be taken as agreement with the assessment.

Contract Concurrence. Where a contractor concurs with, or takes no exception to a CPARS, such report shall be considered final and releasable for use in source selection and other deliberative purposes.

Contractor Rebuttal. Where a contractor takes exception to a performance report, the Contracting Officer will review the contractor’s rebuttal or comments and make appropriate changes. If the Contracting Officer makes changes, the changed rating will be reflected in the narrative. The Contracting Officer will make all reasonable efforts to reconcile the report and the contractor’s comments. However, it is not necessary that they reach agreement on the report where such is clearly impracticable. The contractor’s rebuttal or comments shall be made part of the CPARS.

Resolving Disagreements between the Government and the Contractor. In the event disagreements between the parties regarding the CPARS occur, the Contracting Officer will review the rebuttal and make appropriate changes. If no agreement is reached, the CPARS is forwarded to the Reviewing Official (Director of Contracting) along with the Contracting Officer’s Findings and Recommendation and supporting documentation. The decision of the Reviewing Official is final. Copies of the CPARS and the contractor’s response and review comments, if any, shall be retained as part of the evaluation.

Release of Contractor Performance Evaluation Information. The evaluation will not be released to other than government personnel and the contractor whose performance is evaluated. The performance evaluation information will be input into the applicable module within Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) database (or Government system in use at time of the evaluation).

Source Selection Information. Departments and agencies will electronically access the CPARS information to support future award decisions.

28. Alternate disputes resolution: In furtherance of Federal policy and the Administrative Dispute Resolution Act of 1990 (ADR Act), Public Law 101-552 and FAR Clause 52.233-1, Subparagraph (d) (2) (1) (B) (2), the Contracting Officer will try to resolve all post award acquisition issues in controversy by mutual agreement of both parties. Interested parties are encouraged to use alternative dispute resolution procedures to the maximum extent practicable, in accordance with the authority and requirements of the ADR Act.

SNOW PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS SUMMARY (PRS)

Version 1.5; 17 MAR 2023

1. GENERAL. The Performance Requirements Summaries (PRS) in this section will be used to measure performance of PWS requirements for the purposes of determining the continuation of service under this contract.

The rights of the Government and remedies described in this section are in addition to all other rights and remedies set forth. The Government reserves its right under the "Inspection of Services" and "Termination for Default" clauses of this contract. The Government has the right to inspect all services called for within the PWS, to the extent practicable at all times and places during the term of the contract. The Contractor shall not be relieved of full performance of the services hereunder and the contract may be terminated for default based upon inadequate performance of services even if a reduction was previously taken for inadequate performance.

2. PRS INSPECTION CHECKLIST. The COR will ensure surveillance is conducted using a PRS Inspection Checklist to inspect the compliance of PWS requirements on a monthly basis for acceptance of service invoices. The PRS Inspection Checklist is primarily derived from high and moderate risk assessed PWS requirements but can include any PWS requirement within which the requiring activity deems necessary to ensure acceptable contractor performance over this contract. PWS requirements not included in the PRS Inspection Checklist remain subject to separate quality assurance evaluations under the "Inspection of Services" clause of this contract. The absence from the PRS Inspection Checklist of any contract requirement, however, shall not detract from its enforceability or limit the rights or remedies of the government under any provision of this contract.

2.1. PRS INSPECTION CHECKLIST NONCONFORNANCE. All negative findings on the PRS Inspection Checklist will be addressed using the government quality assurance process as referenced in section 1 of the PWS:

- Level I (Minor) Nonconformance. Issued when a negative result are identified on the PRS Inspection. Rework of nonconformance will be required, when possible.

- Level II (Major) Nonconformance. Issued for:

- Cumulative PRS Inspection Checklist percentage results below the Performance Threshold

- Any safety or environmental issues found

- Negative results identified on PRS Inspection checklist and rework is not possible

- Reoccurrence of a negative result on the PRS Inspection checklist and a Level I NCR had previously been issued.

- Level III (Critical) Nonconformance. Issued when reoccurring negative results are identified on the PRS Inspection Checklist and a Level II NCR had previously been issued.

3. PRS TABLE.

3.1. PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVE. The Performance Objective column lists each section of the PWS which may be assessed within the PRS Inspection Checklist.

3.2. PERFORNANCE STANDARD. The Performance Standard column states the required standard that will be used to measure performance for each section of the PWS.

3.3. PERFORMANCE THRESHOLD. The Performance Threshold column states the acceptable monthly cumulative compliance rate percentage resulting from COR surveillance as indicated in the PRS Inspection Checklist.

Falling below the Performance Threshold percentage indicates to the government that the contractor’s quality control over the PWS requirements is failing.

3.4. PERFORMANCE NONCOMPLIANCE. The performance noncompliance column states the consequence of the contractor failing to meet the compliance rates indicated in the Performance Threshold column, and the consequence of any negative results identified within PRS Inspection checklist. The PRS Inspection Checklist surveillance results will be recorded monthly and can be used in CPARS evaluations. The government will require rework for negative results, when possible. If rework cannot be completed to remedy negative findings, or if reworked results are still not completed to the PWS standard, an equitable price reduction to reflect the value of serves actually performed and/or adequate consideration to make the government whole can be assessed by the Contracting Officer and the determined monetary value will deducted from the monthly invoice.

3.5. METHOD OF SURVEILLANCE. The Method of Surveillance column lists the method(s) the government will use to inspect the Contractor‘s performance. One or all of the methods listed may be used to perform inspections throughout any given month of active performance under this contract.

1.2 Background: The 88th Army Reserve Readiness Division (RD) was established and sited in 2006 at Fort McCoy, Wisconsin. The command supports over 50,000 Soldiers in 19 states to provide the best in class base operations support for Soldiers in the Northwest region.

1.3 Objectives: The objective of this contract is for the contractor to perform necessary snow removal services in a manner that will maintain safe conditions on roadways, parking lots, loading bays / docks, and sidewalks as defined in the PWS. Only snow plow types priced within the contract may be ordered.

1.4 Scope: The contractor shall remove snow and ice, including drifts or piles, from all roadways, parking lots, loading bays / docks, and sidewalks as shown on attached facility map(s). Multiple snow/ice removals may be required each day. Contractor shall treat cleaned surfaces skid free by applying a contractor furnished sand, salt or approved chemical, (Salt/Sand mixture or Chemical treatment must comply with State and Local Department of Transportation Requirements). Sidewalks to be kept in slip free condition. Snow plowing and sidewalk snow removal will normally be ordered at or near the end of a snowfall or, in a continuing snowfall. However;

determination of when to order services rests solely with the COR or DR. Note that any drawings or maps provided to the Contractor, either before or after the contract is awarded, are for reference purposes only and may not be to scale. Any square footage, or other measurement provided, may be an approximation. It is the sole responsibility of the Contractor to determine or verify the actual site conditions and measurements.

If services are ordered when snowfall has accumulated to 6 inches or more, then that order shall constitute two plowing orders. At no time will the vendor charge more than two plowing’s during a single visit. The following depths will be used to determine the number of plows to be billed based on the amount of snow which has fallen at the time service is rendered (see below for Scenarios).

Depth of Snow Number of Plows Below 6 Inches 1 (One) 6 inches or more 2 (Two)

Scenario 1: You are called by the facility manager at 9:00 AM on Thursday to plow and the snow depth at that time is 5 inches, your plow quantity will be 1. You are then called back at 5:00 PM the same day and another 12 inches of snow has fallen, the plow quantity will be 2 plows based on the depth of snow that has fallen since the first plow.

This will be total of 3 plows for that day.

Scenario 2: You are called by the facility manager at 6:00AM on Wednesday to plow and the snow depth at that time is 10 inches, your plow quantity will be 2. You are then called back at 4:00PM the same day and another 3 inches of snow has fallen, the plow quantity will be 1 plow based on the depth of snow that has fallen since the first plow, for a total of three plows for that day.

1.5 Period of Performance: The period of performance shall be for one (1) Base Period and four (4) 12-month option periods.

1.6 General Information

1.6.1 Quality Control: Quality Control is the responsibility of the contractor. The contractor is responsible for the delivery of quality services/supplies to the Government (see FAR 52.212-4, Contractor Inspection Requirements). A formal Quality Control Plan (QCP) is not required for this commercial service. However, the contractor shall maintain an inspection system commensurate with commercial practices to ensure the Contractor only tenders for acceptance those items or services that conform to the requirements of this contract.

1.6.2 Quality Assurance: The Contracting Officer Representative (COR) will evaluate the contractor’s performance under this contract in accordance with the Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP). This plan is a Government only document focused on what the COR must do to assure that the contractor has performed in accordance with the performance requirements within this PWS.

1.6.2.1 Non-conforming Services: When a contractor’s performance is identified as unsatisfactory (e.g. does not meet contract PWS requirements and/or work schedules and/or timeframes) it is considered a non-conformance. The contractor shall reply within the specified timeframe upon receipt of a non-conformance report (NCR) from the COR or Contracting Officer (KO). Non-conformance shall be classified in one of three categories:

1.6.2.1.1 Level I (Minor) non-conformance: is defined as a non-conformance that is a departure from established standards having little bearing on the effective use or operation of the services. Minor non-conformance usually can be corrected by the contractor within a short timeframe, where no further corrective action (CA) response is necessary, and can be issued by the COR to the contractor either through a verbal or written NCR.
