The Ombudsman Program for Agency Protests (OPAP) was established to investigate agency protest issues and resolve them without expensive and time- consuming litigation. OPAP is an independent reviewing authority that is empowered to grant a prevailing protester essentially the same relief as the Government Accountability Office (GAO). Interested parties are encouraged to seek resolution of their concerns within the USCG as an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) forum rather than filing a protest with the GAO or some external forum. Interested parties may seek resolution of their concerns informally or opt to file a formal agency protest with the Contracting Officer or Ombudsman. Informal Forum with the Ombudsman. Interested parties who believe a specific USCG procurement is unfair or otherwise defective should first direct their concerns to the applicable Contracting Officer. If the Contracting Officer is unable to satisfy their concerns, interested parties are encouraged to contact the U.S. Coast Guard Ombudsman for Agency Protests. Under this informal process, the agency is not required to suspend contract award performance. Use of an informal forum does not suspend any time requirement for filing a protest with the agency or other forum. In order to ensure a timely response, interested parties should provide the following information to the Ombudsman: solicitation/contract number, contracting office, Contracting Officer, and solicitation closing date (if applicable). Formal Agency Protest with the Ombudsman. Prior to submitting a formal agency protest, protesters must first use their best efforts to resolve their concerns with the Contracting Officer through open and frank discussions. If the protester's concerns are unresolved, an Independent Review is available by the Ombudsman. The protester may file a formal agency protest to either the Contracting Officer or as an alternative to that, the Ombudsman under the OPAP program. Contract award or performance will be suspended during the protest period unless contract award or performance is justified, in writing, for urgent and compelling reasons or is determined in writing to be in the best interest of the Government. The agency's goal is to resolve protests in less than 35 calendar days from the date of filing. Protests shall include the information set forth in FAR 33.103(d) (2). If the protester fails to submit the required information, resolution of the protest may be delayed or the protest may be dismissed. To be timely protests must be filed within the period specified in FAR 33.103(e). Formal protests filed under the OPAP program should be submitted to: COMMANDANT (CG-9131) U S COAST GUARD OMBUDSMAN PROGRAM FOR AGENCY PROTESTS 2100 2ND ST SW STOP 7112 WASHINGTON DC 20593-7112 The Ombudsman Hotline Telephone Number is +1 (555) 000-0000.

The following clauses and provisions are included: 52.212-1 Instructions to Offerors - Commercial Items Jan 2017 Period of Acceptance of Offers (c) Prices must remain effective for 90 days after solicitation closes. Cost or Pricing Data It is Department of Homeland Security (DHS) policy that pricing for competitive negotiations should be based on adequate price competition. However, in the event only one responsible offeror is obtained as a result of this solicitation, that offeror may be required to submit Data Other Than Certified Cost or Pricing Data to support price negotiations. Evaluation Criteria The provision at Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 52.212-2 Evaluation of Commercial Items is not applicable to this solicitation. In lieu of this provision, quotes will be evaluated in accordance with FAR 13.106-2 based on the criteria listed below. Award will be made to the lowest priced, technically acceptable offer with acceptable or neutral past performance. Price: The offeror shall provide pricing as requested in the attached spreadsheet titled "HSCG80- 18-Q-P45007 - Schedule". Offeror's price shall represent the best price in response to the request for quote. The price shall be evaluated to determine fairness and reasonableness. Technical Capabilities: Technical Acceptability will be evaluated to determine an overall rating of "acceptable" or "unacceptable." This will be determined by evaluating the ability of the offeror to provide a sound, compliant approach that meets all requirements listed in the Specification and demonstrates a thorough knowledge and understanding of the requirements. It is the contractor's responsibility to ensure that their quote clearly demonstrates their ability to perform these requirements. All offerors must provide the following minimum information and documentation with their quotes to be considered technically acceptable: Technical Approach - Submit a brief overview planning document using any means (computer generated, hand written, etc.) that outlines the strategy for ensuring that this requirement is completed on or before the contract completion date. The planning document shall include at least: 1) Proposed schedule, resources, completion-dates, float, and major-milestones for the various tasks required to complete this contract and 2) Identify a list of items that may pose the most contract schedule risk and approach to mitigate or eliminate each risk. Welding Certifications/Procedures - Submit welding documentation (e.g. WPSs, welder certs, etc.) in accordance with SFLC Standard Specification 0740_STD, specific to your internal or subcontracted staff for the weld joints that will be installed. Past Performance: The Government may utilize any references provided by the Contractor, along with information available from past contracts/orders with the USCG and any information found using sources such as Federal Government sources, Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS)/Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) to determine if the Contractor has acceptable or neutral Past Performance. The Government reserves the right to limit or expand the number of references it decides to contact and to contact references other than those provided by the offeror. The offeror must provide at least two relevant past performance evaluations within the last two (2) years. Past performance less than satisfactory may not be considered for award. Evaluation Method The Government will evaluate proposals based on the lowest price technically acceptable criteria. Only the lowest priced offer will be evaluated for Technical Acceptability. Should the lowest priced offer not receive an acceptable technical or past performance rating, the process will continue in order of lowest priced offer until the lowest price, technically acceptable offer with acceptable or neutral past performance is identified. 52.212-3 Offeror Representations and Certifications-Commercial Items Jan 2017 Alternate I of 52.212-3.
