The Contractor shall immediately report any occurrences of lost or duplicate keys/key cards to the Contracting Officer.

1.6.16.1. In the event keys (other than master keys) are lost or duplicated, the Contractor shall, upon direction of the Contracting Officer, re-key or replace the affected lock or locks; however, the Government as its option, may replace the affected lock(s) or perform re-keying. When the replacement of locks or re-keying is performed by the Government, the total cost of re-keying or the replacement of the lock(s) shall be deducted from the monthly payment due the Contractor. In the event a master key is lost or duplicated, all locks and keys for that system shall be replaced by the Government and the total cost deducted from the monthly payment due the Contractor.

1.6.16.2. The Contractor shall prohibit the use of Government issued keys/key cards by any persons other than the Contractor’s employees.

The contracting officer, Contracting Officer Representative (COR), and other Government personnel, as appropriate, may meet periodically with the contractor to review the contractor's performance. At these meetings the contracting officer will apprise the contractor of how the government views the contractor's performance and the contractor will apprise the Government of problems, if any are experienced.

Appropriate action shall be taken to resolve outstanding issues. These meetings shall be at no additional cost to the government.

1.6.19. Contracting Officer Representative (COR): A letter of designation will be issued to the COR, copy of which will be sent to the contractor.

1.6.21. Identification of Contractor Employees: All contract personnel attending meetings, answering Government telephones, and working in other situations where their contractor status is not obvious to third parties are required to identify themselves as such to avoid creating an impression in the minds of members of the public that they are Government officials. They must also ensure that all documents or reports produced by contractors are suitably marked as contractor products or that contractor participation is appropriately disclosed. Contractors are required to maintain and display the proper identification at all times while assigned to Bagram Airfield.

Medications: Other than Force Health Protection Prescription Products (FHPPPs) to be provided to CDF and selected non-CDF, contractor personnel will deploy with a minimum 180-day supply of any required medications obtained at their own expense. The government is not required to provide or replace many medications required for routine treatment of chronic medical conditions, such as high blood pressure, heart conditions, and arthritis. Contractor personnel are required to review both the amount of the medication and its suitability in the foreign area with their personal physician and make any necessary adjustments before deploying. The contractor is responsible for the re-supply of required medications.

These documents and materials may not be used or sold by the contractor without written permission from the Contracting Officer. All materials supplied to the Government shall be the sole property of the Government and may not be used for any other purpose. This right does not abrogate any other Government rights.

1.6.25. Organizational Conflict of Interest: Contractor and subcontractor personnel performing work under this contract may receive, have access to or participate in the development of proprietary or source selection information (e.g., cost or pricing information, budget information or analyses, specifications or work statements, etc.) or perform evaluation services which may create a current or subsequent Organizational Conflict of Interests (OCI) as defined in FAR Subpart 9.5. The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer immediately whenever it becomes aware that such access or participation may result in any actual or potential OCI and shall promptly submit a plan to the Contracting Officer to avoid or mitigate any such OCI. The Contractor’s mitigation plan will be determined to be acceptable solely at the discretion of the Contracting Officer and in the event the Contracting Officer unilaterally determines that any such OCI cannot be satisfactorily avoided or mitigated, the Contracting Officer may affect other remedies as he or she deems necessary, including prohibiting the Contractor from participation in subsequent contracted requirements which may be affected by the OCI.

1.6.26. Phase in/Phase out period: To minimize any decreases in productivity and to prevent possible negative impacts on additional services, the Contractor shall have personnel on board, during the 30 day phase in/phase out periods. During the phase in period, the Contractor shall become familiar with performance requirements in order to commence full performance of services on the contract start date.

1.6.27. Personnel Movement Notifications: The duties of this tasking are confined to this location (Bagram AB), so Contractor movement is highly restricted and only necessary in case of emergency (death of family members back home, medical or dental issues, etc.).

Reviews may be conducted as directed by the local Communications Squadron. Upon completion of the review, the COR or other designated authority will review performance of the Contractor, identify any problem areas and provide recommendations for improvement.

The on-site Communications Squadron will designate a Quality Assurance Evaluator (QAE). QAEs will evaluate contract personnel under local guidance as applicable and as necessary. Documentation of any evaluations shall be maintained with the Communications Squadron for historical/archival purposes and as required by Electronics Records Management policy.
