DEFINITIONS & ACRONYMS
4. Definitions and Acronyms
4.1. Definitions: Although not inclusive of every term used within this PWS, the following provides a list of definitions used throughout this PWS and commonly used in the acquisition field.
Contracting Officer – means a person with the authority to enter into, administer, and/or terminate contracts and make related determinations and findings on behalf of the Government. Note: The only individual who can legally bind the Government.
Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) – As defined in DFARS 202.101, means an individual designated and authorized in writing by the Contracting Officer to perform specific technical or administrative functions. DoD Instruction (DoDI) 5000.72, Part II Definitions states the following when defining a COR:
“Defined in subpart 202.101 of Reference (f). Any individual delegated responsibilities pursuant to subpart 1.602-2 of Reference (e), regardless of local terminology, must be certified in accordance with this instruction. For example, local terminology can be COR, Contracting Officer’s technical representative, technical point of contact, technical representative, alternate COR, administrative COR, assistant COR, line-item manager, task order manager, quality assurance personnel, quality assurance evaluator, or COR management.” In addition, Army Regulation 70-13, Chapter 2, paragraph 2-2g, states, in part, the following when providing other surveillance support personnel to assist the COR when needed, “…These other surveillance support personnel may serve as on-site representatives of the COR in performance of actual contract surveillance if they meet all COR requirements and have been appointed by the Contracting Officer as alternate CORs.”
Contractor – means a supplier or vendor awarded a contract to provide specific supplies or service to the Government. The term used in this contract refers to the prime.
Contractor-acquired Property - means property acquired, fabricated, or otherwise provided by the Contractor for performing a contract and to which the Government has title.
Day – means, unless otherwise specified, a calendar day.
Defective Service – means a service output that does not meet the standard of performance associated with the Performance Work Statement.
Deliverable – means anything that can be physically delivered but may include non-manufactured things such as meeting minutes or reports.
Government-furnished Property – As reflected in FAR 52.245-1, Government-furnished Property “means property in the possession of, or directly acquired by, the Government and subsequently furnished to the Contractor for performance of a contract. Government-furnished property includes, but is not limited to, spares and property furnished for repair, maintenance, overhaul, or modification. Government-furnished property also includes Contractor-acquired property if the Contractor-acquired property is a deliverable under a cost contract when accepted by the Government for continued use under the contract.
Government Property - means all property owned or leased by the Government.
Government property includes both Government-furnished and Contractor-acquired property. Government property includes material, equipment, special tooling, special test equipment, and real property. Government property does not include intellectual property and software.
Property Administrator - means an authorized representative of the Contracting Officer appointed in accordance with agency procedures, responsible for administering the contract requirements and obligations relating to Government property in the possession of a Contractor.
Physical Security – means that part of security concerned with physical measures designed to safeguard personnel; to prevent unauthorized access to equipment, installations, material, and documents; and to safeguard against espionage, sabotage, damage, and theft.
Quality Assurance – (or Government contract quality assurance) means the various functions, including, inspection, performed by the Government to determine whether a Contractor has fulfilled the contract obligations pertaining to quality and quantity.
Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) – means the key Government-developed surveillance process document and is applied to Performance-Based Service Contracting (PBSC). The QASP is used for managing Contractor performance assessment by ensuring that systematic quality assurance methods validate that Contractor quality control efforts are timely, effective, and are delivering the results specified in the contract or task order. The QASP directly corresponds to the performance objectives and standards (i.e., quality, quantity, timeliness) specified in the Performance Work Statement (PWS).

TOBYHANNA ARMY DEPOT ON-SITE CONTRACTOR WORKFORCE AND VISITOR
RESTRICTIONS
1. NON-RESIDENT/NON-IMMIGRANT ALIENS
a. All non-resident/non-immigrant aliens must have approval prior to being permitted access to Tobyhanna Army Depot (TYAD). Such approval must be obtained by requesting access through the following: apply at the alien-resident’s embassy; proceed to the U.S. Embassy; proceed to the Department of the Army; proceed to Army Materiel Command; proceed to U.S. Communications-Electronics Command; proceed to TYAD.
b. All non-resident/non-immigrant aliens granted access to TYAD are required to be escorted by Government personnel. One Government escort can accommodate a maximum of two non-resident/non-immigrant aliens.
c. Due to limited availability of Government personnel, contractors shall not be permitted to employ non-resident/non-immigrant aliens as part of the contractor’s on-site workforce. Limited exceptions to this restriction may be considered on a case-by-case basis. Such exceptions shall only be considered where a specialized skill or trade is not otherwise available, and even under such circumstances would only be considered for very limited duration, e.g., a few hours/days. However, even if limited exception is considered, access may still be denied. Contractors whose personnel are either denied entry to TYAD or permitted limited entry to TYAD due to the security requirements pertaining to non-resident aliens/non-immigrants are not relieved of their obligation to provide the required contract performance and must do so at no additional cost to the Government. Any contractor failing to perform or that fails to perform in a timely manner under such circumstances may be terminated for default or other contractual remedies as appropriate.
d. Due to limited availability of Government personnel, visitors requiring escort may not be permitted access, or access may be limited to a certain time and duration.
2. FOR THE PURPOSE OF FORMAL ESCORTED SITE VISITS
Resident aliens (immigrants) in possession of a valid Form I-551, Alien Registration Receipt Card (“Green Card”), are not required to obtain approval as set forth in paragraph 1.a. above (but see paragraph 5, below). Such individuals must have proper identification in addition to a valid form I-551 in their physical possession at all times while at TYAD. Individuals lacking proper identification and valid form I-555 will be denied access to TYAD.
3. SECURITY SEARCHES, IN-PROCESSING, AND SECURITY SCREENING
All persons seeking entrance to TYAD must submit to and comply with all security standards and requirements in force at the time such persons are seeking entry. All visitors and contractors, regardless of resident status or citizenship, will be subject to vehicle search and intense in-processing by TYAD Security personnel prior to being granted access to TYAD. This security screening process may be time consuming and access may be delayed or denied.
Any Contractors who will be working on site, company representatives who will be visiting periodically, and any companies or contractors requesting or requiring TYAD badges for other business reasons must submit a completed TYAD form 648-C {Deliverable A.005} to their contract or depot point of contact. The completed form must be submitted at least five (5) workdays in advance of on-site performance for each employee intended for onsite performance or five (5) workdays in advance of visits or other business at the depot. Any contractor employee (s) already on site who have not been screened, will be subject to security screening. This requirement is inclusive of on-site supervisory or managerial personnel and sub-contractor personnel that the Contractor anticipates will be performing work or visiting on-site. This security screening does not relieve the contractor of any responsibilities to conduct thorough pre-employment background checks and drug screening. Contractor workers will not be granted access to the work site until security screening is completed and access is approved. Any contractor personnel on site who fail screening will not be permitted further access to TYAD.
4. SUBMISSION OF BIDS OR PROPOSALS
Bidders/offerors who hand carry bids or quotes do so at their own risk. Bidders/offerors are solely responsible for the timely submission of bids /proposals/quotations, any delays security measures notwithstanding.
5. CONTRACTOR ON-SITE WORKFORCE – ADDITIONAL SECURITY
REQUIREMENTS
A. This section is in addition to the requirements above regarding non-resident aliens (non-immigrants) for on-site performance. At least 10 workdays prior to any on-site work, the Contractor shall submit to the PSCC representative, a roster of all contractor personnel, inclusive of on-site supervisory or managerial personnel and sub-contractor personnel, that the Contractor anticipates will be performing work on-site {Deliverable A.006}. The roster shall indicate which individuals are U.S. citizens and which are resident aliens (immigrants). The following documentation shall accompany the roster for each individual named on the roster as a resident alien (immigrant):
a) A copy of a verifiable form of identification, such as a driver’s license or a passport; and
b) A copy of a valid Department of Justice Immigration and Naturalization Service Form I-551, Alien Registration Receipt Card (“Green Card”).
Contractors who fail to identify any and all resident aliens (immigrants) who will be used for on-site performance and who will seek access to Tobyhanna Army Depot as a worker for or through the contractor, inclusive of managerial and subcontractor personnel, may be subject to civil and criminal penalties and sanctions as well as contract remedies.
B. Within five (5) workdays of the submission of the roster, documentation, and TYAD form 648-C, the Government will have completed the security check and the Contractor shall be notified whether all listed personnel will be permitted to work on-site. However, actual access to Tobyhanna Army Depot by the roster personnel will remain contingent upon such resident alien (immigrant) individuals presenting two (2) forms of identification as they process into the Depot through the Security building: a valid Form I-551, Alien Registration Receipt Card (“Green Card”) in addition to at least one other verifiable form of identification.
C. The roster that the Contractor submits is amendable. However, up to five (5) workdays will be required to perform a security check on any personnel added to the roster. The Contractor is urged to include contingency or “back-up” personnel in the original roster in order to avoid delays due to roster amendment.
D. Contractors whose personnel are denied entry to TYAD due to the security requirements are not relieved of their obligation to provide the required contract performance and must do so at no additional cost to the Government. Any contractor failing to perform or that fails to perform in a timely manner under such circumstances may be terminated for default or be subject to other contractual remedies as appropriate.
