**PART I - SECTION E**

**INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE**

**3.10.4-10**     **Inspection of Construction** (July 2001)

(a) \'Work\' includes, but is not limited to, materials, workmanship,
    and manufacture and fabrication of components.\
    \
    (b) The Contractor shall maintain an adequate inspection system and
    perform such inspections as will ensure that the work performed
    under the contract conforms to contract requirements. The Contractor
    shall maintain complete inspection records and make them available
    to the Government. All work shall be conducted under the general
    direction of the Contracting Officer and is subject to Government
    inspection and test at all places and at all reasonable times before
    acceptance to ensure strict compliance with the terms of the
    contract.\
    \
    (c) Government inspections and tests are for the sole benefit of the
    Government and do not\--\
    \
    (1) Relieve the Contractor of responsibility for providing adequate
    quality control measures;\
    \
    (2) Relieve the Contractor of responsibility for damage to or loss
    of the material before acceptance;\
    \
    (3) Constitute or imply acceptance; or\
    \
    (4) Affect the continuing rights of the Government after acceptance
    of the completed work under paragraph (i) below.\
    \
    (d) The presence or absence of a Government inspector does not
    relieve the Contractor from any contract requirement, nor is the
    inspector authorized to change any term or condition of the
    specification without the Contracting Officer\'s written
    authorization.\
    \
    (e) The Contractor shall promptly furnish, without additional
    charge, all facilities, labor, and material reasonably needed for
    performing such safe and convenient inspections and tests as may be
    required by the Contracting Officer. The Government may charge to
    the Contractor any additional cost of inspection or test when work
    is not ready at the time specified by the Contractor for inspection
    or test, or when prior rejection makes reinspection or retest
    necessary. The Government shall perform all inspections and tests in
    a manner that will not unnecessarily delay the work. Special, full
    size, and performance tests shall be performed as described in the
    contract.\
    (f) The Contractor shall, without charge, replace or correct work
    found by the Government not to conform to contract requirements,
    unless the Government determines that it is in the public interest
    to accept the work with an appropriate adjustment in contract price.
    The Contractor shall promptly segregate and remove rejected material
    from the premises.\
    \
    (g) If the Contractor does not promptly replace or correct rejected
    work, the Government may:\
    \
    (1) by contract or otherwise, replace or correct the work and charge
    the cost to the Contractor or\
    \
    (2) terminate for default the Contractor\'s right to proceed.\
    \
    (h) If, before acceptance of the entire work, the Government decides
    to examine already completed work by removing it or tearing it out,
    the Contractor, on request, shall promptly furnish all necessary
    facilities, labor, and material. If the work is found to be
    defective or nonconforming in any material respect due to the fault
    of the Contractor or its subcontractors, the Contractor shall defray
    the expenses of the examination and of satisfactory reconstruction.
    However, if the work is found to meet contract requirements, the
    Contracting Officer shall make an equitable adjustment for the
    additional services involved in the examination and reconstruction,
    including, if completion of the work was thereby delayed, an
    extension of time.\
    \
    (i) Unless otherwise specified in the contract, the Government shall
    accept, as promptly as practicable after completion and inspection,
    all work required by the contract or that portion of the work the
    Contracting Officer determines can be accepted separately.
    Acceptance shall be final and conclusive except for latent defects,
    fraud, gross mistakes amounting to fraud, or the Government\'s
    rights under any warranty or guarantee.\
    \

articles that are new and of the most suitable grade for the purpose
intended to do the work this contract covers, unless the contract

arrange to make prompt and full restitution.

\(e\) Maps and specifications FAA (we, us) provides may not give the
location of all water supply, drainage, irrigation, and other
underground facilities. Before entering a tract of land for contract
purposes, you must find out from the property owner (or other reasonably

\(a\) The Contractor (you) must preserve and protect all structures,
equipment, and vegetation (such as trees, shrubs, and grass) on or
adjacent to the work site that are not to be removed and which do not
unreasonably interfere with the work required under this contract. You
must remove trees only when specifically authorized to do so, and must
avoid damaging vegetation that will remain in place. If any tree limbs
or branches break while you work, you must trim those limbs or branches
with a clean cut.

\(b\) You must protect from damage all existing improvements and
utilities at or near the work site and on a third party\'s adjacent
property, if you are or should be aware of them. You must repair any

Officer (CO) may have another vendor perform the work and charge you for
it.

(End of clause)

**3.2.2.3-67 Special Precautions for Work at Operating Airports** (July
2004)

\(a\) When the Contractor (you) performs work at an operating airport,
you must arrange your work schedule so it will not interfere with flight
operations. Those operations take precedence over construction
convenience. You must perform work that would otherwise interfere with
or endanger the operations of aircraft only at times and in the manner
the Contracting Officer (CO) directs. The FAA will make every effort to
reduce the disruption of your operation.

\(b\) Unless otherwise specified by local regulations, you must mark all
areas in which construction operations are underway with yellow flags
during daylight hours and with red lights at other times. The red lights
along the edge of the construction areas within the existing aprons must
be the electric type of not less than 100 watts intensity, placed and
supported as required. All other construction markings on roads and
adjacent parking lots may be either electric or battery type lights. You
must place these lights and flags to outline the construction areas, and
the distance between any two flags or lights must not be greater than 25
feet. You must provide adequate watch to maintain the lights in working
condition at all times other than daylight hours. The CO will determine
the hour daylight begins and ends.

\(c\) All equipment and material in the construction areas or when moved
outside the construction area must be marked with airport safety flags
during the day and at other times the CO directs, and with red
obstruction lights at nights. You must have clearance lights conforming
with the CO\'s instructions for all equipment operating on the apron,
taxiway, runway, and intermediate areas after dark. You must not operate
construction equipment within 50 feet of aircraft undergoing fuel
operations. You must not have open flames on the ramp except at times
the CO authorizes.

\(d\) Your trucks and other motorized equipment must enter the airport
or construction area only over routes the CO identifies. You must not
use runways, aprons, taxiways, or parking areas as truck or equipment
routes unless specifically authorized for such use. You must provide
flag personnel at points on apron and taxiway to safely guide your
equipment over these areas to assure right of way to aircraft. You must
return areas and routes you used during the contract to their original
condition. You must not exceed the airport management\'s maximum speed
at the airport. Your vehicles must be under safe control at all times,
weather and traffic conditions considered. Vehicles must have with head
and tail lights when it\'s dark.

\[End of Provision\]

**3.3.1-33**   **Central Contractor Registration** (April 2006)

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

\"Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database\" means the primary
Government repository for Contractor information required for the
conduct of business with the Government.

\"Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number\" means the 9-digit
number assigned by Dun and Bradstreet, Inc. (D&B) to identify unique
business entities.

\"Data Universal Numbering System +4 (DUNS+4) number\" means the DUNS
number assigned by D&B plus a 4-character suffix that may be assigned by
a business concern. (D&B has no affiliation with this 4-character
suffix.) This 4-character suffix may be assigned at the discretion of
the business concern to establish additional CCR records for identifying
alternative Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) accounts for the same parent
concern.

\"Registered in the CCR database\" means that the Contractor has entered
all mandatory information, including the DUNS number or the DUNS+4
number, into the CCR database.

(b)(1) By submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges the
requirement that a prospective awardee shall be registered in the CCR
database prior to award, during performance, and through final payment
of any contract, basic agreement, basic ordering agreement, or blanket
purchasing agreement resulting from this solicitation.

\(2\) The offeror shall enter, in Representations, Certifications and
Other Statements of Offerors Section of the solicitation, the DUNS or
DUNS +4 number that identifies the offeror\'s name and address exactly
as stated in the offer. The DUNS number will be used by the Contracting
Officer to verify that the offeror is registered in the CCR database.

\(c\) If the offeror does not have a DUNS number, it should contact Dun
and Bradstreet directly to obtain one.

\(1\) An offeror may obtain a DUNS number

\(i\) If located within the United States, by calling Dun and Bradstreet
at 1-866-705-5711 or via the Internet at
[http://www.dnb.com](http://www.dnb.com/)/; or

\(ii\) If located outside the United States, by contacting the local Dun
and Bradstreet office.

\(2\) The offeror should be prepared to provide the following
information:

\(i\) Company legal business.

\(ii\) Tradestyle, doing business, or other name by which your entity is
commonly recognized.

\(iii\) Company Physical Street Address, City, State, and ZIP Code.

\(iv\) Company Mailing Address, City, State and ZIP Code (if different
from physical street address).

\(v\) Company Telephone Number.

\(vi\) Date the company was started.

\(vii\) Number of employees at your location.

\(viii\) Chief executive officer/key manager.

\(ix\) Line of business (industry).

\(x\) Company Headquarters name and address (reporting relationship
within your entity).

\(d\) If the offeror does not become registered in the CCR database in
the time prescribed by the Contracting Officer, the Contracting Officer
may proceed to award to the next otherwise successful registered
offeror.

\(e\) Processing time, which normally takes 48 hours, should be taken
into consideration when registering. Offerors who are not registered
should consider applying for registration immediately upon receipt of
this solicitation.

\(f\) The Contractor is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of
the data within the CCR database, and for any liability resulting from
the Government\'s reliance on inaccurate or incomplete data. To remain
registered in the CCR database after the initial registration, the
Contractor is required to review and update on an annual basis from the
date of initial registration or subsequent updates its information in
the CCR database to ensure it is current, accurate and complete.
Updating information in the CCR does not alter the terms and conditions
of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed
contractual document.

(g)(1)(i) If a Contractor has legally changed its business name, \"doing
business as\" name, or division name (whichever is shown on the
contract), or has transferred the assets used in performing the
contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements regarding
novation and change-of-name agreements in AMS Procurement Guidance
T3.10.1.A-8, the Contractor shall provide the responsible Contracting
Officer a minimum of one business day\'s written notification of its
intention to:

\(A\) change the name in the CCR database;

\(B\) comply with the requirements of T3.10.1.A-8; and

\(C\) agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the
responsible Contracting Officer. The Contractor must provide the
Contracting Officer with the notification, sufficient documentation to
support the legally changed name.

\(ii\) If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of
paragraph (g)(1)(i) of this clause, or fails to perform the agreement at
paragraph (g)(1)(i)(C) of this clause, and, in the absence of a properly
executed novation or change-of-name agreement, the CCR information that
shows the Contractor to be other than the Contractor indicated in the
contract will be considered to be incorrect information within the
meaning of the \"Suspension of Payment\" paragraph of the electronic
funds transfer (EFT) clause of this contract.

\(2\) The Contractor shall not change the name or address for EFT
payments or manual payments, as appropriate, in the CCR record to
reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims. Assignees
shall be separately registered in the CCR database. Information provided
to the Contractor\'s CCR record that indicates payments, including those
made by EFT, to an ultimate recipient other than that Contractor will be
considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the
\"Suspension of payment\" paragraph of the EFT clause of this contract.

\(h\) Offerors and Contractors may obtain information on registration
and annual confirmation requirements via the internet at
[http://www.ccr.gov](http://www.ccr.gov/)/ or by calling 1-888-227-2423,
or 269-961-5757.

(End of clause)

**3.3.1-34**   **Payment by Electronic Funds Transfer/Central Contractor
Registration** (October 2005)

\(a\) Method of payment.

\(1\) All payments by the Government under this contract shall be made
by electronic funds transfer (EFT), except as provided in paragraph
(a)(2) of this clause. As used in this clause, the term \"EFT\" refers
to the funds transfer and may also include the payment information
transfer.

\(2\) In the event the Government is unable to release one or more
payments by EFT, the Contractor agrees to either?

\(i\) Accept payment by check or some other mutually agreeable method of
payment; or

\(ii\) Request the Government to extend the payment due date until such
time as the Government can make payment by EFT (but see paragraph (d) of
this clause).

\(b\) Contractor\'s EFT information. The Government shall make payment
to the Contractor using the EFT information contained in the Central
Contractor Registration (CCR) database. In the event that the EFT
information changes, the Contractor shall be responsible for providing
the updated information to the CCR database.

\(c\) Mechanisms for EFT payment. The Government may make payment by EFT
through either the Automated Clearing House (ACH) network, subject to
the rules of the National Automated Clearing House Association, or the
Fedwire Transfer System. The rules governing Federal payments through
the ACH are contained in 31 CFR Part 210.

\(d\) Suspension of payment. If the Contractor\'s EFT information in the
CCR database is incorrect, then the Government need not make payment to
the Contractor under this contract until correct EFT information is
entered into the CCR database; and any invoice or contract financing
request shall be deemed not to be a proper invoice for the purpose of
prompt payment under this contract. The prompt payment terms of the
contract regarding notice of an improper invoice and delays in accrual
of interest penalties apply.

\(e\) Liability for uncompleted or erroneous transfers.

\(1\) If an uncompleted or erroneous transfer occurs because the
Government used the Contractor\'s EFT information incorrectly, the
Government remains responsible for?

\(i\) Making a correct payment;

\(ii\) Paying any prompt payment penalty due; and

\(iii\) Recovering any erroneously directed funds.

\(2\) If an uncompleted or erroneous transfer occurs because the
Contractor\'s EFT information was incorrect, or was revised within 30
days of Government release of the EFT payment transaction instruction to
the Federal Reserve System, and?

\(i\) If the funds are no longer under the control of the payment
office, the Government is deemed to have made payment and the Contractor
is responsible for recovery of any erroneously directed funds; or

\(ii\) If the funds remain under the control of the payment office, the
Government shall not make payment, and the provisions of paragraph (d)
of this clause shall apply.

\(f\) EFT and prompt payment. A payment shall be deemed to have been
made in a timely manner in accordance with the prompt payment terms of
this contract if, in the EFT payment transaction instruction released to
the Federal Reserve System, the date specified for settlement of the
payment is on or before the prompt payment due date, provided the
specified payment date is a valid date under the rules of the Federal
Reserve System.

\(g\) EFT and assignment of claims. If the Contractor assigns the
proceeds of this contract as provided for in the assignment of claims
terms of this contract, the Contractor shall require as a condition of
any such assignment, that the assignee shall register separately in the
CCR database and shall be paid by EFT in accordance with the terms of
this clause. Notwithstanding any other requirement of this contract,
payment to an ultimate recipient other than the Contractor, or a
financial institution properly recognized under an assignment of claims,
is not permitted. In all respects, the requirements of this clause shall
apply to the assignee as if it were the Contractor. EFT information that
shows the ultimate recipient of the transfer to be other than the
Contractor, in the absence of a proper assignment of claims acceptable
to the Government, is incorrect EFT information within the meaning of
paragraph (d) of this clause.

\(h\) Liability for change of EFT information by financial agent. The
Government is not liable for errors resulting from changes to EFT
information made by the Contractor\'s financial agent.

\(i\) Payment information. The payment or disbursing office shall
forward to the Contractor available payment information that is suitable
for transmission as of the date of release of the EFT instruction to the
Federal Reserve System. The Government may request the Contractor to
designate a desired format and method(s) for delivery of payment
information from a list of formats and methods the payment office is
capable of executing. However, the Government does not guarantee that
any particular format or method of delivery is available at any
particular payment office and retains the latitude to use the format and
delivery method most convenient to the Government. If the Government
makes payment by check in accordance with paragraph (a) of this clause,
the Government shall mail the payment information to the remittance
address contained in the CCR database.

the negligence of the Contractor or of the Contractor\'s agents,
servants, or employees, and must be represented by final judgments or
settlements approved in writing by the Government. These liabilities are
for:

\(i\) Loss of or damage to property (other than property owned,
occupied, or used by the Contractor, rented to the Contractor, or in the
care, custody, or control of the Contractor); or

\(ii\) Death or bodily injury.

\(d\) The Government\'s liability under paragraph (c) of this clause is
subject to the availability of appropriated funds at the time a

implying that the Congress will, at a later date, appropriate funds
sufficient to meet deficiencies.

\(e\) The Contractor shall not be reimbursed for liabilities (and
expenses incidental to such liabilities)-

\(1\) For which the Contractor is otherwise responsible under the
express terms of any clause specified in the \"Schedule\" or elsewhere
in the contract;

maintained by the Contractor in connection with the performance of this
contract, other than insurance required in accordance with this clause;
provided, that such cost is allowable under the \"Allowable Cost and
Payment\" clause of this contract.

\(a\) This clause applies to the extent that this contract requires
contractor employees, subcontractors, or consultants to have unescorted
access to FAA:\
\
(1) Facilities;\
\
(2) Sensitive information; and/or\
\
(3) Resources regardless of the location where such access occurs, and
none of the exceptions of FAA Order 1600.72A, Contractor and Industrial
Security Program, Chapter 5, paragraphs 4, 6, 7 and 8 pertains.\
\
Definitions of applicable terminology are contained in the corresponding
guidance and Order 1600.72A, appendix A.\
\
(b) Consistent with FAA Order 1600.72A, the FAA Servicing Security
Element (SSE) has approved designated risk levels for the positions
under the contract.

**[Position Risk Level 1 -- Low Risk]{.underline} [FAA Escort Required
(refer to paragraph o)\
]{.underline}**\
(c) Not later than five (5) business days, not to exceed a maximum of 30
days, after contract award (or date of modification, if this provision
is included by modification to an existing contract), for each employee
in a listed position requiring access, provided, no previous background
investigations can be supported as described below, the contractor will
submit the following documentation to the SSE for an employment
suitability determination:\
\

Record, FAA Form 1600-77, will be completed (all questions answered) in
accordance with the instruction sheet.\
- One fingerprint card (FD-258). Fingerprints will be taken by those
individuals who have been identified as either a Trusted Agent or a
Personal Identity Verification (PIV) registrar (SSE).\
\
In some instances, the fingerprint only may be required and an OF-306
Declaration for Federal Employment, most current edition, will also be
submitted.\
\
The applicant will appear in person and provide two forms of identity
source documents in original form to the PIV Registrar (SSE) or the
authorized Trusted Agent. The identity source documents must come from
the list of acceptable documents included in Form I-9, OMB No.
1115-0136, Employment Eligibility Verification or version of the DOT F
1681 containing the list of acceptable identity verification documents.
At least one document will be a valid State or Federal Government-issued
picture Identification. A signed I-9 Form may be used but must indicate
the two source documents that were verified.\
\
The type of investigation conducted will be determined by the position
risk level designation for all duties, functions, and/or tasks performed
and will serve as the basis for granting a favorable employment
suitability authorization as described in FAA Order 1600.72A. If an
employee has had a previous U. S. Government conducted background
investigation which meets the requirements of Chapter 5 of FAA Order
1600.72A and Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12 (HSPD-12), it
will be accepted by the FAA. However, the FAA reserves the right to
conduct further investigations, if necessary. For each contractor
employee for which a previous background investigation was completed,
the contractor will provide, in writing to the SSE, the name, date of
birth, place of birth, and social security number of the employee, the
name of the investigating entity, type of background investigation
conducted, and approximate date the previous background investigation
was completed. For all contracts over six (6) months in duration, the
minimum background investigation requirement will be a National Agency
Check with Inquiries (NACI). Please check with your SSE for final
determination as to OPM background investigation type required. The
contract may include positions that are temporary, seasonal, or under
escort only. In such cases, a FAA Form 1600-77 for each specific
position will be established as the investigative requirements may
differ from the NACI.\

The contractor must submit the required information with a transmittal
letter referencing the contract number and this request to:\
\
The transmittal letter must also include a list of all of the names of
contractor employees and their positions for which completed forms will

transmittal letter must also be provided to the Contracting
Officer/Contracting Officer\'s Technical Representative (COTR) minus any
privacy act information.\
\
(d) The contractor must submit the information required by Section (c)
of this Clause for any new employee not listed in the Contractor\'s
initial submission who is hired into any position identified in Section
(c) of this Clause.\
\
(e) The Contracting Officer will provide notice to the contractor when
any contractor employee is found to be unsuitable or otherwise
objectionable, or whose conduct appears contrary to the public interest,
or inconsistent with the best interest of national security. The
contractor must take appropriate action, including the removal of such
employee from working on this FAA contract, at their own expense. The
Contracting Officer will confirm to the SSE that the action has been
taken.\
\
(f) No contractor employee will work in a high, moderate, or low risk
position unless the SSE has received all forms necessary to conduct any
required investigation and has authorized the contractor employee to
begin work.\
(g) As applicable, the contractor must submit quarterly/bi-annual
reports to the Contracting Officer with a copy to the SSE and the
Operating Office on or before the fifth (5th) business day following
each report period. This report must include a complete alphabetical
listing of all current contractors who are currently supporting the
contract and a separate listing of all terminated contractors.\
\
(h) The contractor must notify the CO within one (1) business day after
any employee identified pursuant to Section (c) of this Clause is
terminated from performance on the contract.\
\
(i) The Contracting Officer may also, after coordination with the SSE
and other security specialists, require contractor employees to submit
any other security information (including additional fingerprinting)
deemed reasonably necessary to protect the interests of the FAA. In this
event, the contractor must provide, or cause each of its employees to
provide, such security information to the SSE, and the same transmittal
letter requirements of Section (c) of this Clause applies.\
\
(j) The contractor and/or subcontractor(s) must immediately contact the
Servicing Security Elements (Regional and/or Center Security Divisions)
or AIN-400 at Headquarters in the event an employee is arrested
(detained by law enforcement for any offenses, other than minor traffic
offenses) or is involved in theft of government property or the
contractor becomes aware of any information that may raise a question
about the suitability of a contractor employee.\
\
(k) Failure to submit information required by this clause within the
time required may be determined by the Contracting Officer a material
breach of the contract.\
\
(l) If subsequent to the effective date of this contract, the security
classification or security requirements under this contract are changed
by the Government and if the changes cause an increase or decrease in
direct contract costs or otherwise affect any other term or condition of
this contract, the contract will be subject to an equitable adjustment.\
\
(m) The contractor agrees to insert terms that conform substantially to
the language of this clause, including this paragraph (l) but excluding
any reference to the Changes clause of this contract, in all
subcontracts under this contract that involve access and where the
exceptions under Chapter 5, FAA Order 1600.72A do not apply.\
\
(n) The Contracting Officer will ensure the SSE receives a list of all
proposed contractor employees, the name of the contracting company,
contract number, duty location, identification of the funding line of
business, and the names of the contracting officers and COTR for each
contract within five (5) business days of contract award. If the
Contracting Officer provided the SSE a solicitation number during
pre-award, the contracting officer will ensure the SSE is notified of
the contract number.\
\
(o) Contractor employees who have not undergone a background
investigation must be escorted at all times. In some instances, a
contractor employee may be required to serve as an escort. In this
situation, the contractor employee must have a completed and favorably
adjudicated National Agency Check with Inquiries (NACI).\

AS A CONDITION OF SUBMITTING AN OFFER OR RESPONSE TO THIS SIR (OR OTHER
SOLICITATION, IF APPROPRIATE), THE OFFEROR OR POTENTIAL OFFEROR AGREES
TO BE BOUND BY THE FOLLOWING PROVISIONS RELATING TO PROTESTS:

\(a\) Protests concerning Federal Aviation Administration Screening
Information Requests (SIRs) or awards of contracts shall be resolved
through the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) dispute resolution
system at the Office of Dispute Resolution for Acquisition (ODRA) and
shall be governed by the procedures set forth in 14 C.F.R. Parts 14 and
17, which are hereby incorporated by reference. Judicial review, where
available, will be in accordance with 49 U.S.C. 46110 and shall apply
only to final agency decisions. A protestor may seek review of a final
FAA decision only after its administrative remedies have been exhausted.

\(b\) Offerors initially should attempt to resolve any issues concerning
potential protests with the Contracting Officer. The Contracting Officer
should make reasonable efforts to answer questions promptly and
completely, and, where possible, to resolve concerns or controversies.
The protest time limitations, however, will not be extended by attempts
to resolve a potential protest with the Contracting Officer.

\(c\) The filing of a protest with the ODRA may be accomplished by mail,
overnight delivery, hand delivery, or by facsimile. A protest is
considered to be filed on the date it is received by the ODRA.

\(d\) Only an interested party may file a protest. An interested party
is one whose direct economic interest has been or would be affected by
the award or failure to award an FAA contract. Proposed subcontractors
are not \"interested parties\" within this definition.

\(e\) A written protest must be filed with the ODRA within the times set
forth below, or the protest shall be dismissed as untimely:

\(1\) Protests based upon alleged improprieties in a solicitation or a
SIR that are apparent prior to bid opening or the time set for receipt
of initial proposals shall be filed prior to bid opening or the time set
for the receipt of initial proposals.

\(2\) In procurements where proposals are requested, alleged
improprieties that do not exist in the initial solicitation, but which
are subsequently incorporated into the solicitation, must be protested
not later than the next closing time for receipt of proposals following
the incorporation.

\(3\) For protests other than those related to alleged solicitation
improprieties, the protest must be filed on the later of the following
two dates:

\(i\) Not later than seven (7) business days after the date the
protester knew or should have known of the grounds for the protest; or

\(ii\) If the protester has requested a post-award debriefing from the
FAA Product Team, not later than five (5) business days after the date
on which the Product Team holds that debriefing.

\(f\) Protests shall be filed at:

\(1\) Office of Dispute Resolution for Acquisition, AGC-70,

Federal Aviation Administration,

800 Independence Ave., S.W.,

Room 323,

Washington, DC 20591,

Telephone: (202) 267-3290,

Facsimile: (202) 267-3720; or

\(2\) other address as specified in 14 CFR Part 17.

\(g\) At the same time as filing the protest with the ODRA, the
protester shall serve a copy of the protest on the Contracting Officer
and any other official designated in the SIR for receipt of protests by
means reasonably calculated to be received by the Contracting Officer on
the same day as it is to be received by the ODRA. The protest shall
include a signed statement from the protester, certifying to the ODRA
the manner of service, date, and time when a copy of the protest was
served on the Contracting Officer and other designated official(s).

\(h\) Additional information and guidance about the ODRA dispute
resolution process for protests can be found on the ODRA Website at
[http://www.faa.gov](http://www.faa.gov/).
