2. After selecting the “Click Here” link, you will be prompted to add your personal information, file information, recipient (Government points of contact) information and e-mail settings.

3. When completing your file information, you will be required to enter the email addresses for all recipients.

A Bidder can confirm proper submission by the ‘Drop-Off Completed” screen which generates based on proper file submission.

NOTE: It has been reported that documents are more quickly uploaded into the SAFE website when using a Firefox web browser. The Government cannot verify that this is true and offers no guarantee that Bidders will have more success utilizing any particular browser.

TIMELINES OF BIDS:

For the purposes of establishing whether a bid submission is considered timely, the Government considers the date and time the submission is completely uploaded into the SAFE website. For bids larger than the 2GB capacity of the SAFE website and require multiple submissions, the Government will consider the date and time the last submission is completely uploaded into the SAFE website. Do not assume that electronic communication is instantaneous. It can take several minutes or even hours in some cases.

The Government will not be responsible for bids delivered to any location or to anyone other than those designated to receive bids. Bidders are responsible for ensuring that bids are submitted so as to reach the designated recipient. Bidders are responsible for allowing sufficient time for the bid to be received in accordance with the instructions provided.

Bid Opening

Bids will be opened one hour after the time for bid submission noted above. This one hour delay is necessary to allow for technical delays.

In addition to complying with the requirements outlined in FAR Part 22.13, FAR Provision 52.222‐38, FAR Clause 52.222‐35, FAR Clause 52.222‐37, DFARS 222.13 and Department of Labor regulations, U.S.

Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) contractors and subcontractors at all tiers are encouraged to promote the training and employment of U.S. veterans while performing under a USACE contract. While no set‐ aside, evaluation preference, or incentive applies to the solicitation or performance under the resultant contract, USACE contractors are encouraged to seek out highly qualified veterans to perform services under this contract. The following resources are available to assist USACE contractors in their outreach efforts:

Federal Veteran employment information at http://www.fedshirevets.gov/index.aspx Department of Labor Veterans Employment Assistance http://www.dol.gov/vets/ Department of Veterans Affairs–VOW to Hire Heros Act http://benefits.va.gov/vow/ Army Wounded Warrior Program – http://wtc.army.mil/modules/employers/index.html U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation–Hiring Our Heros http://www.hiringourheroes.org/ Guide to Hiring Veterans – Reference Material http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/docs/white_house_business_council_- _guide_to_hiring_veterans_0.pdf

CONTRACTOR PERFORMANCE

CONTRACTOR PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS (CPARS)

In accordance with the provisions of Subpart 36.201 (Evaluation of Contractor Performance) of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), construction Contractor's performance shall be evaluated throughout the performance of the contract. The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) follows the procedures outlined in Engineering Regulation 415-1-17 to fulfill this FAR requirement.

For service contracts awarded at or above $1,000,000.00, the USACE will evaluate contractor's performance annually and at completion and prepare a performance report using the Contractor

Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), which is now a web based system. After an evaluation (interim or final) is written up by the USACE, the Contractor will have the ability to access, review and comment on the evaluation for a period of 60 days.

Accessing and using CPARS typically requires specific software, called PKI certification, which is installed on the user's computer. However, although users are encouraged to use PKI certificates whenever possible, a waiver has been approved to allow industry users to access the system without a PKI certificate. Contractors wishing to log on without a PKI certificate should select the "Contractor (pending PKI)" logon option. The certification is a Department of Defense item and was implemented to provide security in electronic transactions.

The certification software could cost approximately $110 - $125 per certificate per year and is purchased from an External Certificate Authorities (ECA) vendor. Current information about the PKI certification process and for contacting vendors can be found on the web site: http://www.cpars.navy.mil/ . If the Contractor wishes to participate in the performance evaluation process, access to CPARS and PKI certification is the sole responsibility of the Contractor.

CONTRACTOR MANPOWER REPORTING

REPORTING OF CONTRACTOR MANPOWER DATA ELEMENTS

(a) Scope. The following sets forth contractual requirements for reporting of contractor labor work year equivalents (also called Contractor Man-year Equivalents (CMEs)) in support of the Army, pursuant to 10 U.S.C.

129a, 10 U.S.C. 2461(g), Section 343 of P.L. 106-65, and 32 CFR 668. Reporting shall be accomplished electronically by direct contractor submission to the System for Award Management site, SAM.gov. Information on the background, purposes, and significance of this reporting requirement, and the 32 CFR 668 Final Rule as published in the Federal Register, can be found at this Web Site. The Army’s objective is to collect as much significant CME data as possible to allow accurate reporting to Congress and for effective Army planning. The reporting data elements should not be viewed as an “all or nothing” requirement. Even partial reporting, e.g., direct labor hours, appropriation data, place of performance, Army customer, etc., will be helpful.

(b) Applicability. This reporting requirement applies to certain services covered by Federal Supply Class or Service codes for “Research and Development,” and “Other Services and Construction” which are over $3M.

Report submissions shall not contain classified information. (Also see “Exemptions” at (d) below.)

(c) Requirements. The contractor is required to report the following contractor manpower information, associated with performance of this contract action in support of Army requirements, for all covered contracts, using SAM.gov. (Other information requirements associated with the manpower data collection (contract and task or delivery order numbers; appropriation data and amounts; total estimated value of contract; federal supply class or service code; major Army organizational element receiving or reviewing work; beginning and ending data for reporting period; place of performance; name, address, and point of contact for contractor; etc.) are specified and explained at the web site).

(1) Labor Hours. Composite direct labor hours, and the value of those indirect labor hours plus compensation related costs for direct labor hours ordinarily included in the indirect pools1.

(2) Rates. Alternatively, contractors may report two distinct, relevant (annualized) composite or average indirect labor rates in lieu of raw indirect labor hours and the value of those indirect hours. Such rates shall be annualized average estimates for the reporting contractor and need not be developed for each reporting period.

Either method chosen should be consistently reported.

1 Compensation costs are defined in the reporting instructions at the Army Web Site.

(d) Exemption(s). If the contractor is unable to comply with these reporting requirements without creating a whole new cost allocation system or system of records (such as a payroll accounting system), or due to similar insurmountable practical or economic reasons, the contractor may claim an exemption to at least a portion of the reporting requirement by certifying in writing to the contracting officer the clear underlying reason(s) for exemption from the specified report data element(s), and further certifying that they do not otherwise have to provide the exempted information, in any form, to the United States Government. The “self-exemption” will apply to all contract actions involving the contractor and will be reviewed and approved by the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army (Procurement), in coordination with the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army (Force Management and Resources), whose decision is final in this matter.

(e) Uses and Safeguarding of Information. The information submitted will be treated as contractor proprietary when associated with a contractor name of contract number.

(f) Subcontract Data. The contractor shall ensure that all reportable subcontract data is timely reported to the data collection web site (citing this contract/order number). At the discretion of the prime contractor, this reporting may be done directly by subcontractors to the data collection site; or by the prime contractor after consolidating and rationalizing all significant data from their subcontractors.

(g) Report schedule. The contractor is required to report the required information to the web site annually.

The reporting period will be from the beginning of the period of performance until 30 September of each government fiscal year, not to exceed 12 months and must be reported by 31 October of each calendar year.

(h) Reporting Flexibility. Contractors are encouraged to communicate with the Help Desk identified at the data collection web site to resolve reporting difficulties. Changes to facilitate reporting may be authorized by the contracting officer or the Help Desk (under HQDA policy direction and oversight).

WEATHER DELAYS

TIME EXTENSIONS FOR UNUSUALLY SEVERE WEATHER

a. This provision specifies the procedure for the determination of time extensions for unusually severe weather in accordance with the CONTRACT CLAUSE entitled “DEFAULT (FIXED-PRICE SUPPLY AND SERVICE).” In order for the Contracting Officer to award a time extension under this clause, the following conditions must be satisfied.

(1) The weather experienced at the project site during the contract period must be found to be unusually severe, that is, more severe than the adverse weather anticipated for the project location during any given month.

(2) The UNUSUALLY severe weather must actually cause a delay to the completion of the project.

The delay must be beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor.

b. The following schedule of monthly anticipated adverse weather delays is based on National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) or similar data for the project location and will constitute the base line for monthly weather time evaluations. The Contractor’s progress schedule must reflect these anticipated adverse weather delays in all-weather dependent activities.

MONTHLY ANTICIPATED ADVERSE WEATHER DELAY WORK DAYS

BASED ON 5-DAY WORK WEEK

JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN JUL AUG SEPT OCT NOV DEC

9 8 6 3 2 2 2 2 2 4 6 8

c. Upon contract award and continuing throughout the contract, the Contractor will record on the daily CQC report, the occurrence of adverse weather and resultant impact to normally scheduled work. Actual adverse weather delay days must prevent work on critical activities for 50 percent or more of the Contractor’s scheduled work day. The number of actual adverse weather delay days shall include days impacted by weather (even if adverse weather occurred in previous month), be calculated chronologically from the first to the last day of each month, and be recorded as full days. If the number of actual adverse weather delay days exceeds the number of days anticipated in paragraph b, above, the Contracting Officer will convert any qualifying delays to calendar days, giving full consideration for equivalent fair weather work days, and issue a modification in accordance with the contract clause entitled “DEFAULT (FIXED PRICE SUPPLY AND SERVICE).”

SPECIFICATIONS AND DRAWINGS

(a) The Contractor shall, within fivedays after the work commences on the contract or another period of time determined by the Contracting Officer, prepare and submit to the Contracting Officer for approval three copies of a practicable schedule showing the order in which the Contractor proposes to perform the work, and the dates on which the Contractor contemplates starting and completing the several salient features of the work (including acquiring materials, plant, and equipment). The schedule shall be in the form of a progress chart of suitable scale to indicate appropriately the percentage of work scheduled for completion by any given date during the period. If the Contractor fails to submit a schedule within the time prescribed, the Contracting Officer may withhold approval of progress payments until the Contractor submits the required schedule.

(b) The Contractor shall enter the actual progress on the chart as directed by the Contracting Officer, and upon doing so shall immediately deliver three copies of the annotated schedule to the Contracting Officer. If, in the opinion of the Contracting Officer, the Contractor falls behind the approved schedule, the Contractor shall take steps necessary to improve its progress, including those that may be required by the Contracting Officer, without additional cost to the Government. In this circumstance, the Contracting Officer may require the Contractor to increase the number of shifts, overtime operations, days of work, and/or the amount of plant, and to submit for approval any supplementary schedule or schedules in chart form as the Contracting Officer deems necessary to demonstrate how the approved rate of progress will be regained.

(c) Failure of the Contractor to comply with the requirements of the Contracting Officer under this clause shall be grounds for a determination by the Contracting Officer that the Contractor is not prosecuting the work with sufficient diligence to ensure completion within the time specified in the contract. Upon making this determination, the Contracting Officer may terminate the Contractor’s right to proceed with the work, or any separable part of it, in accordance with the default terms of this contract.

SCHEDULES FOR CONTRACTS

(a) The Contractor shall keep on the work site a copy of the drawings and specifications and shall at all times give the Contracting Officer access thereto. Anything mentioned in the specifications and not shown on the drawings, or shown on the drawings and not mentioned in the specifications, shall be of like effect as if shown or mentioned in both. In case of difference between drawings and specifications, the specifications shall govern. In case of discrepancy in the figures, in the drawings, or in the specifications, the matter shall be promptly submitted to the Contracting Officer, who shall promptly make a determination in writing. Any adjustment by the Contractor without such a determination shall be at its own risk and expense. The Contracting Officer shall furnish from time to time such detailed drawings and other information as considered necessary, unless otherwise provided.

(b) Wherever in the specifications or upon the drawings the words "directed," "required," "ordered," "designated," "prescribed," or words of like import are used, it shall be understood that the "direction," "requirement," "order," "designation," or "prescription," of the Contracting Officer is intended and similarly the words "approved," "acceptable," "satisfactory," or words of like import shall mean "approved by," or "acceptable to," or "satisfactory to" the Contracting Officer, unless otherwise expressly stated.

(c) Where "as shown," "as indicated," "as detailed," or words of similar import are used, it shall be understood that the reference is made to the drawings accompanying this contract unless stated otherwise.

The Government may duplicate, use, and disclose in any manner and for any purpose shop drawings delivered under this contract.

(e) If this contract requires shop drawings, the Contractor shall coordinate all such drawings, and review them for accuracy, completeness, and compliance with contract requirements and shall indicate its approval thereon as evidence of such coordination and review. Shop drawings submitted to the Contracting Officer without evidence of the Contractor’s approval may be returned for resubmission. The Contracting Officer will indicate an approval or disapproval of the shop drawings and if not approved as submitted shall indicate the Government’s reasons therefor.

Approval by the Contracting Officer shall not relieve the Contractor from responsibility for any errors or omissions in such drawings, nor from responsibility for complying with the requirements of this contract, except with respect to variations described and approved in accordance with (f) of this clause.

(f) If shop drawings show variations from the contract requirements, the Contractor shall describe such variations in writing, separate from the drawings, at the time of submission. If the Contracting Officer approves any such variation, the Contracting Officer shall issue an appropriate contract modification, except that, if the variation is minor or does not involve a change in price or in time of performance, a modification need not be issued.

(g) The Contractor shall submit to the Contracting Officer for approval four copies (unless otherwise indicated) of all shop drawings as called for under the various headings of these specifications. Three sets (unless otherwise indicated) of all shop drawings, will be retained by the Contracting Officer and one set will be returned to the Contractor.

Delivery of added items shall continue at the same rate that like items are called for under the contract, unless the parties otherwise agree.

52.219-14 LIMITATIONS ON SUBCONTRACTING (MAR 2020)

(a) This clause does not apply to the unrestricted portion of a partial set-aside.

(b) Applicability. This clause applies only to--

(1) Contracts that have been set aside for small business concerns or 8(a) participants;

(2) Part or parts of a multiple-award contract that have been set aside for small business concerns or 8(a) participants;

(3) Orders set aside for small business concerns or 8(a) participants under multiple-award contracts as described in 8.405-5 and 16.505(b)(2)(i)(F); and

52.219-28 POST-AWARD SMALL BUSINESS PROGRAM REREPRESENTATION (NOV 2020)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause--

Long-term contract means a contract of more than five years in duration, including options. However, the term does not include contracts that exceed five years in duration because the period of performance has been extended for a cumulative period not to exceed six months under the clause at 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, or other appropriate authority.

Small business concern--

(1) Means a concern, including its affiliates, that is independently owned and operated, not dominant in the field of operation in which it is bidding on Government contracts, and qualified as a small business under the criteria in 13 CFR part 121 and the size standard in paragraph (d) of this clause. Such a concern is "not dominant in its field of operation" when it does not exercise a controlling or major influence on a national basis in a kind of business activity in which a number of business concerns are primarily engaged. In determining whether dominance exists, consideration shall be given to all appropriate factors, including volume of business, number of employees, financial resources, competitive status or position, ownership or control of materials, processes, patents, license agreements, facilities, sales territory, and nature of business activity.

(2) Affiliates, as used in this definition, means business concerns, one of whom directly or indirectly controls or has the power to control the others, or a third party or parties control or have the power to control the others. In determining whether affiliation exists, consideration is given to all appropriate factors including common ownership, common management, and contractual relationships. SBA determines affiliation based on the factors set forth at 13

CFR 121.103.

(b) If the Contractor represented that it was any of the small business concerns identified in 19.000(a)(3) prior to award of this contract, the Contractor shall rerepresent its size and socioeconomic status according to paragraph (f) of this clause or, if applicable, paragraph (h) of this clause, upon occurrence of any of the following:

(1) Within 30 days after execution of a novation agreement or within 30 days after modification of the contract to include this clause, if the novation agreement was executed prior to inclusion of this clause in the contract.

(2) Within 30 days after a merger or acquisition that does not require a novation or within 30 days after modification of the contract to include this clause, if the merger or acquisition occurred prior to inclusion of this clause in the contract.

(3) For long-term contracts--

(i) Within 60 to 120 days prior to the end of the fifth year of the contract; and

(ii) Within 60 to 120 days prior to the date specified in the contract for exercising any option thereafter.

(c) If the Contractor represented that it was any of the small business concerns identified in 19.000(a)(3) prior to award of this contract, the Contractor shall rerepresent its size and socioeconomic status according to paragraph (f) of this clause or, if applicable, paragraph (h) of this clause, when the Contracting Officer explicitly requires it for an order issued under a multiple-award contract.

(d) The Contractor shall rerepresent its size status in accordance with the size standard in effect at the time of this rerepresentation that corresponds to the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code(s) assigned to this contract. The small business size standard corresponding to this NAICS code(s) can be found at https://www.sba.gov/document/support--table-size-standards.

(e) The small business size standard for a Contractor providing a product which it does not manufacture itself, for a contract other than a construction or service contract, is 500 employees.

(f) Except as provided in paragraph (h) of this clause, the Contractor shall make the representation(s) required by paragraph (b) and (c) of this clause by validating or updating all its representations in the Representations and Certifications section of the System for Award Management (SAM) and its other data in SAM, as necessary, to ensure that they reflect the Contractor's current status. The Contractor shall notify the contracting office in writing within the timeframes specified in paragraph (b) of this clause, or with its offer for an order (see paragraph (c) of this clause), that the data have been validated or updated, and provide the date of the validation or update.
