IFB 60-5003 Japan Rolling Stock

A.2 Item Description:
Commonly referred to as Rolling Stock, these Foreign Excess Personal Property (FEPP) vehicles offered under this IFB are items of personal property that are offered for sale outside the territory of the United States and have been determined to be safe to sell. This property is sold “as-is, where-is.” (See SBR Part 2, Art.2) This property has been determined to be excess to the requirements of the US DoD components, however, not all such property will be referred under this contract as agency regulations and policies may first require (1) reutilization within their agency or to special programs; (2) transfer to other federal agencies; or (3) donation to specified eligible entities, before an item is eligible for sale to the general public. The Agency’s overseas management of FEPP follows the “disposition code” guidance of 41 CFR section 102-36.240 which describes excess personal property as either “new” property, “usable” property, “repairable” property or “salvage” property. The FEPP offered under this IFB has been determined to be “new”, “useable” or “repairable’ under the GSA definitions. The FEPP property offered under this IFB would not be considered scrap, which is defined as property that has no value except for its basic material content. While DoD turn-in customers provide a supply condition code of A-H on all DTIDs for all property turned into the Agency, these codes are used in the DoD supply system as classifications for materiel in terms of readiness for issue and use, or to identify action underway to change the status of materiel. They do not directly correspond to the suitability of property being made available for reutilization, transfer, donation or sale. Agency personnel make an independent determination on whether the property should be classified as scrap because it has no value in excess of the item’s material content and/or whether an item is suitable for reutilization, transfer, donation or sale as FEPP. The quality of the property tendered under this contract will vary and it is being sold “as is where is” with no warranty as to its condition or suitability for its originally intended, or any other specific purpose.
This is not a sale by lot. The Government estimates 600 line-items annually and guarantees to issue the purchaser a minimum of 200 Disposal Turn In Document (DTID)s of foreign excess personal property (FEPP) annually (A DTID may be one item or a group of like items). The maximum amount of property issued annually will not exceed 1200 DTIDs of foreign excess personal property (FEPP).
Annually is defined as any continuous 12-month period of time during the contract performance period
commencing with the beginning of contract performance commencing from the date of the first removal by the
purchaser.
A list of items sold in 2024 will be provided for bidding purposes showing a total Original Acquisition Value (OAV) of $6,356,559.04. Your bid will be a percentage of the OAV to provide for equal evaluation of bids. The information provided in this report is historical information and does not represent what may be sold in the future. Future quantities and types of property cannot be predicted and are based solely on our customers’ determination. The bid amount will be a simple percentage and is not multiplied by a quantity to provide an estimated total extended price.
The Purchaser is cautioned that prior to resale of the property acquired under this contract, they should
become familiar with their customer and the purposes for which it is acquiring the property. The US export
control regulations may apply to subsequent transactions of the property. The Purchaser should obtain a
statement from the buyer, containing information similar to that contained in the USG’s End-Use Certificate
(EUC) and must check any prospective buyer to ensure the buyer is not on the Department of Commerce
proscribed party list (entity and person) and prohibited country list; that the transfer will not violate 15
CFR Part 736 and issue a destination control statement in accordance with the EAR. Additionally
Information on managing exports of CCL items can be found at the Bureau of Industry and Security website at
https://www.bis.gov.
For purposes of this contract, the term usable property excludes records of the Federal Government, and naval vessels of the following categories: battleships, cruisers, aircraft carriers, destroyers, and submarines.
All property covered under the contract is being sold “as-is” and “where is”. No request for adjustment in
price for any item or rescission of the sale will be considered. This is not a sale by sample and property
issued under the terms of this contract may not be rejected by the purchaser, unless an item falls outside
the scope of the contract. The United States Government (USG) is the sole arbiter of determining condition
code and determining whether property is considered usable FEPP under its property regulations and thus
eligible for referral under this contract. Purchaser’s opinion on whether the property is able to clear
customs, sell or market, or the availability of customers for items have no bearing on whether the
Government considers the property usable. No changes, modifications, or reductions of price will be applied.
Under no circumstances is culling for the purpose of effecting partial or incremental removals authorized.
