officers, or representatives, in any manner caused by, growing out of,
resulting from, incident to, or connected with, the performance of this
contract, regardless of whether such claims, loss, damage, actions,

various kinds of work covered in the technical paragraphs of the
specifications. The cost breakdown shall show the quantities of each
type of work, the unit prices for materials, labor, and equipment, as
well as the total price. The contractor shall obtain cost information

\"Component\" means an article, material, or supply incorporated
directly into construction material.

\"Construction material\" means an article, material, or supply brought
to the construction site by the Contractor or a subcontractor for
incorporation into the building or work. The term also includes an item
brought to the site preassembled from articles, materials, or supplies.
However, emergency life safety systems, such as emergency lighting, fire
alarm, and audio evacuation systems, that are discrete systems
incorporated into a public building or work and that are produced as
complete systems, are evaluated as a single and distinct construction
material regardless of when or how the individual parts or components of
those systems are delivered to the construction site. Materials
purchased directly by the Government are supplies, not construction
material.

\"Cost of components\" means\--

\(1\) For components purchased by the Contractor, the acquisition cost,
including transportation costs to the place of incorporation into the
construction material (whether or not such costs are paid to a domestic
firm), and any applicable duty (whether or not a duty-free entry
certificate is issued); or

\(2\) For components manufactured by the Contractor, all costs
associated with the manufacture of the component, including
transportation costs as described in paragraph (1) of this definition,
plus allocable overhead costs, but excluding profit. Cost of components
does not include any costs associated with the manufacture of the end
product.

\"Domestic construction material\" means\--

\(1\) An unmanufactured construction material mined or produced in the

United States; or

\(2\) A construction material manufactured in the United States, if the
cost of its components mined, produced, or manufactured in the United
States exceeds 50 percent of the cost of all its components. Components
of foreign origin of the same class or kind for which nonavailability
determinations have been made are treated as domestic.

\"Foreign construction material\" means a construction material other
than a domestic construction material.

\"United States\" means the 50 States and the District of Columbia, U.S.
territories and possessions, Puerto Rico, the Northern Mariana Islands,
and any other place subject to U.S. jurisdiction, but does not include
leased bases.

\(b\) Domestic preference. (1) This clause implements the Buy American
Act (41 U.S.C. 10a - 10d) by providing a preference for domestic
construction material. The Contractor shall use only domestic
construction material in performing this contract, except as provided in
paragraphs (b)(2) and (b)(3) of this clause.

\(2\) This requirement does not apply to the construction material or
components listed by the Government as follows: NONE

\(3\) The Contracting Officer may add other foreign construction
material to the list in paragraph (b)(2) of this clause if the
Government determines that\--

\(i\) The cost of domestic construction material would be unreasonable.
The cost of a particular domestic construction material subject to the
requirements of the Buy American Act is unreasonable when the cost of
such material exceeds the cost of foreign material by more than 6
percent.

\(ii\) The application of the restriction of the Buy American Act to a
particular construction material would be impracticable or inconsistent
with the public interest; or

\(iii\) The construction material is not mined, produced, or
manufactured in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available
commercial quantities of a satisfactory quality.

\(c\) Request for determination of inapplicability of the Buy American
Act. (1)(i) Any Contractor request to use foreign construction material
in accordance with paragraph (b)(3) of this clause shall include
adequate information for Government evaluation of the request,
including\--

\(A\) A description of the foreign and domestic construction materials;

\(B\) Unit of measure;

\(C\) Quantity;

\(D\) Price;

\(E\) Time of delivery or availability;

\(F\) Location of the construction project;

\(G\) Name and address of the proposed supplier; and

\(H\) A detailed justification of the reason for use of foreign
construction materials cited in accordance with paragraph (b)(3) of this
clause.

\(ii\) A request based on unreasonable cost shall include a reasonable
survey of the market and a completed price comparison table in the
format in paragraph (d) of this clause.

\(iii\) The price of construction material shall include all delivery
costs to the construction site and any applicable duty (whether or not a
duty-free certificate may be issued).

\(iv\) Any Contractor request for a determination submitted after
contract award shall explain why the Contractor could not reasonably
foresee the need for such determination and could not have requested the
determination before contract award. If the Contractor does not submit a
satisfactory explanation, the Contracting Officer need not make a
determination.

\(2\) If the Government determines after contract award that an
exception to the Buy American Act applies and the Contracting Officer
and the Contractor negotiate adequate consideration, the Contracting
Officer will modify the contract to allow use of the foreign
construction material. However, when the basis for the exception is the
unreasonable price of a domestic construction material, adequate
consideration is not less than the differential established in paragraph
(b)(3)(i) of this clause.

\(3\) Unless the Government determines that an exception to the Buy
American Act applies, use of foreign construction material is
non-compliant with the Buy American Act.

\(d\) Data. To permit evaluation of requests under paragraph (c) of this
clause based on unreasonable cost, the Contractor shall include the
following information and any applicable supporting the data based on
the survey of suppliers:

**I.83 52.228-1 BID GUARANTEE (SEP 1996)**

\(a\) Failure to furnish a bid guarantee in the proper form and amount,
by the time set for opening of bids, may be cause for rejection of the
bid.

\(b\) The bidder shall furnish a bid guarantee in the form of a firm
commitment, e.g., bid bond supported by good and sufficient surety or
sureties acceptable to the Government, postal money order, certified
check, cashier\'s check, irrevocable letter of credit, or, under
Treasury Department regulations, certain bonds or notes of the United
States. The Contracting Officer will return bid guarantees, other than
bid bonds, (1) to unsuccessful bidders as soon as practicable after the
opening of bids, and (2) to the successful bidder upon execution of
contractual documents and bonds (including any necessary coinsurance or
reinsurance agreements), as required by the bid as accepted.

\(c\) The amount of the bid guarantee shall be twenty (20) percent of
the bid price or \$ 3,000.000.00 whichever is less.

\(d\) If the successful bidder, upon acceptance of its bid by the
Government within the period specified for acceptance, fails to execute
all contractual documents or furnish executed bond(s) within 10 days
after receipt of the forms by the bidder, the Contracting Officer may
terminate the contract for default.

\(e\) In the event the contract is terminated for default, the bidder is
liable for any cost of acquiring the work that exceeds the amount of its
bid, and the bid guarantee is available to offset the difference.

(End of provision)

**I.84 52.232-27 PROMPT PAYMENT FOR CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS (Feb 2002)**

Notwithstanding any other payment terms in this contract, the Government
will make invoice payments under the terms and conditions specified in
this clause. The Government considers payment as being made on the day a
check is dated or the date of an electronic funds transfer. Definitions
of pertinent terms are set forth in sections 2.101, 32.001, and 32.902
of the Federal Acquisition Regulation. All days referred to in this
clause are calendar days, unless otherwise specified. (However, see
paragraph (a)(3) concerning payments due on Saturdays, Sundays, and
legal holidays.)

\(a\) \"Invoice payments\"\--(1) Types of invoice payments. For purposes
of this clause, there are several types of invoice payments that may
occur under this contract, as follows:

\(i\) Progress payments, if provided for elsewhere in this contract,
based on Contracting Officer approval of the estimated amount and value
of work or services performed, including payments for reaching
milestones in any project.

\(A\) The due date for making such payments is 14 days after the
designated billing office receives a proper payment request. If the
designated billing office fails to annotate the payment request with the
actual date of receipt at the time of receipt, the payment due date is
the 14th day after the date of the Contractor\'s payment request,
provided the designated billing office receives a proper payment request
and there is no disagreement over quantity, quality, or Contractor
compliance with contract requirements.

\(B\) The due date for payment of any amounts retained by the
Contracting Officer in accordance with the clause at 52.232-5, Payments
Under Fixed-Price Construction Contracts, is as specified in the
contract or, if not specified, 30 days after approval by the Contracting
Officer for release to the Contractor.

\(ii\) Final payments based on completion and acceptance of all work and
presentation of release of all claims against the Government arising by
virtue of the contract, and payments for partial deliveries that have
been accepted by the Government (e.g., each separate building, public
work, or other division of the contract for which the price is stated
separately in the contract).

\(A\) The due date for making such payments is the later of the
following two events:

\(1\) The 30th day after the designated billing office receives a proper
invoice from the Contractor.

\(2\) The 30th day after Government acceptance of the work or services
completed by the Contractor. For a final invoice when the payment amount
is subject to contract settlement actions (e.g., release of claims),
acceptance is deemed to occur on the effective date of the contract
settlement.

\(B\) If the designated billing office fails to annotate the invoice
with the date of actual receipt at the time of receipt, the invoice
payment due date is the 30th day after the date of the Contractors
invoice, provided the designated billing office receives a proper
invoice and there is no disagreement over quantity, quality, or
Contractor compliance with contract requirements.

\(2\) \"Contractor\'s invoice.\" The Contractor shall prepare and submit
invoices to the designated billing office specified in the contract. A
proper invoice must include the items listed in paragraphs (a)(2)(i)
through (a)(2)(xi) of this clause. If the invoice does not comply with
these requirements, the designated billing office must return it within
7 days after receipt, with the reasons why it is not a proper invoice.
When computing any interest penalty owed the Contractor, the Government
will take into account if the Government notifies the Contractor of an
improper invoice in an untimely manner.

\(i\) Name and address of the Contractor.

\(ii\) Invoice date and invoice number. (The Contractor should date
invoices as close as possible to the date of mailing or transmission.)

\(iii\) Contract number or other authorization for work or services
performed (including order number and contract line item number).

\(iv\) Description of work or services performed.

\(v\) Delivery and payment terms (e.g., discount for prompt payment
terms).

\(vi\) Name and address of Contractor official to whom payment is to be
sent (must be the same as that in the contract or in a proper notice of
assignment).

\(vii\) Name (where practicable), title, phone number, and mailing
address of person to notify in the event of a defective invoice.

\(viii\) For payments described in paragraph (a)(1)(i) of this clause,
substantiation of the amounts requested and certification in accordance
with the requirements of the clause at 52.232-5, Payments Under
Fixed-Price Construction Contracts.

\(ix\) Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN). The Contractor shall
include its TIN on the invoice only if required elsewhere in this
contract.

\(x\) Electronic funds transfer (EFT) banking information.

\(A\) The Contractor shall include EFT banking information on the
invoice only if required elsewhere in this contract.

\(B\) If EFT banking information is not required to be on the invoice,
in order for the invoice to be a proper invoice, the Contractor shall
have submitted correct EFT banking information in accordance with the
applicable solicitation provision (e.g., 52.232-38, Submission of
Electronic Funds Transfer Information with Offer), contract clause
(e.g., 52.232-33, Payment by Electronic Funds Transfer\--Central
Contractor Registration, or 52.232-34, Payment by Electronic Funds
Transfer\-- Other Than Central Contractor Registration), or applicable
agency procedures.

\(C\) EFT banking information is not required if the Government waived
the requirement to pay by EFT.

\(xi\) Any other information or documentation required by the contract.

\(3\) \"Interest penalty.\" The designated payment office will pay an
interest penalty automatically, without request from the Contractor, if
payment is not made by the due date and the conditions listed in
paragraphs (a)(3)(i) through (a)(3)(iii) of this clause are met, if
applicable. However, when the due date falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or
legal holiday, the designated payment office may make payment on the
following working day without incurring a late payment interest penalty.

\(i\) The designated billing office received a proper invoice.

\(ii\) The Government processed a receiving report or other Government
documentation authorizing payment and there was no disagreement over
quantity, quality, Contractor compliance with any contract term or
condition, or requested progress payment amount.

\(iii\) In the case of a final invoice for any balance of funds due the
Contractor for work or services performed, the amount was not subject to
further contract settlement actions between the Government and the
Contractor.

\(4\) \"Computing penalty amount.\" The Government will compute the
interest penalty in accordance with the Office of Management and Budget
prompt payment regulations at 5 CFR part 1315.

\(i\) For the sole purpose of computing an interest penalty that might
be due the Contractor for payments described in paragraph (a)(1)(ii) of
this clause, Government acceptance or approval is deemed to occur
constructively on the 7th day after the Contractor has completed the
work or services in accordance with the terms and conditions of the
contract. If actual acceptance or approval occurs within the
constructive acceptance or approval period, the Government will base the
determination of an interest penalty on the actual date of acceptance or
approval. Constructive acceptance or constructive approval requirements
do not apply if there is a disagreement over quantity, quality, or
Contractor compliance with a contract provision. These requirements also
do not compel Government officials to accept work or services, approve
Contractor estimates, perform contract administration functions, or make
payment prior to fulfilling their responsibilities.

\(ii\) The prompt payment regulations at 5 CFR 1315.10(c) do not require
the Government to pay interest penalties if payment delays are due to
disagreement between the Government and the Contractor over the payment
amount or other issues involving contract compliance, or on amounts
temporarily withheld or retained in accordance with the terms of the
contract. The Government and the Contractor shall resolve claims
involving disputes, and any interest that may be payable in accordance
with the clause at FAR 52.233-1, Disputes.

\(5\) Discounts for prompt payment. The designated payment office will
pay an interest penalty automatically, without request from the
Contractor, if the Government takes a discount for prompt payment
improperly. The Government will calculate the interest penalty in
accordance with the prompt payment regulations at 5 CFR part 1315.

\(6\) \"Additional interest penalty.\" (i) The designated payment office
will pay a penalty amount, calculated in accordance with the prompt
payment regulations at 5 CFR part 1315 in addition to the interest
penalty amount only if\--

\(A\) The Government owes an interest penalty of \$1 or more;

\(B\) The designated payment office does not pay the interest penalty
within 10 days after the date the invoice amount is paid; and

\(C\) The Contractor makes a written demand to the designated payment
office for additional penalty payment, in accordance with paragraph
(a)(6)(ii) of this clause, postmarked not later than 40 days after the
date the invoice amount is paid.

(ii)(A) The Contractor shall support written demands for additional
penalty payments with the following data. The Government will not
request any additional data. The Contractor shall\--

\(1\) Specifically assert that late payment interest is due under a
specific invoice, and request payment of all overdue late payment
interest penalty and such additional penalty as may be required;

\(2\) Attach a copy of the invoice on which the unpaid late payment
interest was due; and

\(3\) State that payment of the principal has been received, including
the date of receipt.

\(B\) If there is no postmark or the postmark is illegible\--

\(1\) The designated payment office that receives the demand will
annotate it with the date of receipt provided the demand is received on
or before the 40th day after payment was made; or

\(2\) If the designated payment office fails to make the required
annotation, the Government will determine the demands validity based on
the date the Contractor has placed on the demand, provided such date is
no later than the 40th day after payment was made.

\(b\) Contract financing payments. If this contract provides for
contract financing, the Government will make contract financing payments
in accordance with the applicable contract financing clause.

\(c\) \"Subcontract clause requirements.\" The Contractor shall include
in each subcontract for property or services (including a material
supplier) for the purpose of performing this contract the following:

\(1\) \"Prompt payment for subcontractors.\" A payment clause that
obligates the Contractor to pay the subcontractor for satisfactory
performance under its subcontract not later than 7 days from receipt of
payment out of such amounts as are paid to the Contractor under this
contract.

\(2\) \"Interest for subcontractors.\" An interest penalty clause that
obligates the Contractor to pay to the subcontractor an interest penalty
for each payment not made in accordance with the payment clause\--

\(i\) For the period beginning on the day after the required payment
date and ending on the date on which payment of the amount due is made;
and

\(ii\) Computed at the rate of interest established by the Secretary of
the Treasury, and published in the Federal Register, for interest
payments under section 12 of the Contract Disputes Act of 1978 (41
U.S.C. 611) in effect at the time the Contractor accrues the obligation
to pay an interest penalty.

\(3\) \"Subcontractor clause flowdown.\" A clause requiring each
subcontractor to

\(i\) Include a payment clause and an interest penalty clause conforming
to the standards set forth in paragraphs (c)(1) and (c)(2) of this
clause in each of its subcontracts; and

\(ii\) Require each of its subcontractors to include such clauses in
their subcontracts with each lower-tier subcontractor or supplier.

\(d\) \"Subcontract clause interpretation.\" The clauses required by
paragraph (c) of this clause shall not be construed to impair the right
of the Contractor or a subcontractor at any tier to negotiate, and to
include in their subcontract, provisions that\--

\(1\) \"Retainage permitted.\" Permit the Contractor or a subcontractor
to retain (without cause) a specified percentage of each progress
payment otherwise due to a subcontractor for satisfactory performance
under the subcontract without incurring any obligation to pay a late
payment interest penalty, in accordance with terms and conditions agreed
to by the parties to the subcontract, giving such recognition as the
parties deem appropriate to the ability of a subcontractor to furnish a
performance bond and a payment bond;

\(2\) \"Withholding permitted.\" Permit the Contractor or subcontractor
to make a determination that part or all of the subcontractor\'s request
for payment may be withheld in accordance with the subcontract
agreement; and

\(3\) Withholding requirements. Permit such withholding without
incurring any obligations pay a late payment penalty if\--

\(i\) A notice conforming to the standards of paragraph (g) of this
clause previously has been furnished to the subcontractor; and

\(ii\) The Contractor furnishes to the Contracting Officer a copy of any
notice issued by a Contractor pursuant to paragraph (d)(3)(i) of this
clause.

\(e\) \"Subcontractor withholding procedures.\" If a Contractor, after
making a request for payment to the Government but before making a
payment to a subcontractor for the subcontractor\'s performance covered
by the payment request, discovers that all or a portion of the payment
otherwise due such subcontractor is subject to withholding from the
subcontractor in accordance with the subcontract agreement, then the
Contractor shall\--

\(1\) \"Subcontractor notice.\" Furnish to the subcontractor a notice
conforming to the standards of paragraph (g) of this clause as soon as
practicable upon ascertaining the cause giving rise to a withholding,
but prior to the due date for subcontractor payment;

the Government because of a reduction under paragraph (e)(5)(i)) of this
clause; or

\(B\) Seven days after the Contractor recovers such funds from the
Government; or

\(ii\) Incur an obligation to pay a late payment interest penalty
computed at the rate of interest established by the Secretary of the
Treasury, and published in the Federal Register, for interest payments
under section 12 of the Contracts Disputes Act of 1978 (41 U.S.C. 611)
in effect at the time the Contractor accrues the obligation to pay an
interest penalty;

\(5\) \"Notice to Contracting Officer.\" Notify the Contracting Officer
upon\--

\(i\) Reduction of the amount of any subsequent certified application
for payment; or

\(ii\) Payment to the subcontractor of any withheld amounts of a
progress payment, specifying\--

\(A\) The amounts withheld under paragraph (e)(1) of this clause; and

\(B\) The dates that such withholding began and ended; and

\(6\) \"Interest to Government.\" Be obligated to pay to the Government
an amount equal to interest on the withheld payments (computed in the
manner provided in 31 U.S.C. 3903(c)(1)), from the 8th day after receipt
of the withheld amounts from the Government until\--

\(i\) The day the identified subcontractor performance deficiency is
corrected; or

\(ii\) The date that any subsequent payment is reduced under paragraph
(e)(5)(i) of this clause.

\(f\) \"Third-party deficiency reports\"\--(1) \"Withholding from
subcontractor.\" If a Contractor, after making payment to a first-tier
subcontractor, receives from a supplier or subcontractor of the
first-tier subcontractor \[hereafter referred to as a \"second-tier
subcontractor\"\] a written notice in accordance with section 2 of the
Act of August 24, 1935 (40 U.S.C. 270b, Miller Act), asserting a
deficiency in such first-tier subcontractor\'s performance under the
contract for which the Contractor may be ultimately liable, and the
Contractor determines that all or a portion of future payments otherwise
due such first-tier subcontractor is subject to withholding in
accordance with the subcontract agreement, the Contractor may, without
incurring an obligation to pay an interest penalty under paragraph
(e)(6) of this clause\--

\(i\) Furnish to the first-tier subcontractor a notice conforming to the
standards of paragraph (g) of this clause as soon as practicable upon
making such determination; and

\(ii\) Withhold from the first-tier subcontractor\'s next available
progress payment or payments an amount not to exceed the amount
specified in the notice of withholding furnished under paragraph
(f)(1)(i) of this clause.

corrected, the Contractor shall\--

\(i\) Pay the amount withheld under paragraph (f)(1)(ii) of this clause
to such first-tier subcontractor; or

\(ii\) Incur an obligation to pay a late payment interest penalty to
such first-tier subcontractor computed at the rate of interest
established by the Secretary of the Treasury, and published in the
Federal Register, for interest payments under section 12 of the
Contracts Disputes Act of 1978 (41 U.S.C. 611) in effect at the time the
Contractor accrues the obligation to pay an interest penalty.

shall issue a written notice of any withholding to a subcontractor (with
a copy furnished to the Contracting Officer), specifying\--

\(1\) The amount to be withheld;

request payment from the Government of any amount withheld or retained
in accordance with paragraph (d) of this clause until such time as the
Contractor has determined and certified to the Contracting Officer that
the subcontractor is entitled to the payment of such amount.

\(i\) \"Prime-subcontractor disputes.\" A dispute between the Contractor
and subcontractor relating to the amount or entitlement of a
subcontractor to a payment or a late payment interest penalty under a
clause included in the subcontract pursuant to paragraph (c) of this
clause does not constitute a dispute to which the Government is a party.
The Government may not be interpleaded in any judicial or administrative
proceeding involving such a dispute.

\(j\) \"Preservation of prime-subcontractor rights.\" Except as provided
in paragraph (i) of this clause, this clause shall not limit or impair
any contractual, administrative, or judicial remedies otherwise
available to the Contractor or a subcontractor in the event of a dispute
involving late payment or nonpayment by the Contractor or deficient
subcontract performance or nonperformance by a subcontractor.

\(k\) \"Non-recourse for prime contractor interest penalty.\" The
Contractor\'s obligation to pay an interest penalty to a subcontractor
pursuant to the clauses included in a subcontract under paragraph (c) of
this clause shall not be construed to be an obligation of the Government
for such interest penalty. A cost-reimbursement claim may not include
any amount for reimbursement of such interest penalty.

\(l\) \"Overpayments.\" If the Contractor becomes aware of a duplicate
payment or that the Government has otherwise overpaid on an invoice
payment, the Contractor shall immediately notify the Contracting Officer
and request instructions for disposition of the overpayment. (End of
clause)

**I.85 52.232-34 PAYMENT BY ELECTRONIC FUNDS TRANSFER\--OTHER THAN
CENTRAL CONTRACTOR REGISTRATION (MAY 1999)**

\(a\) 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 payment due dates until such
time as the Government makes payment by EFT (but see paragraph (d) of
this clause).

\(b\) Mandatory submission of Contractor\'s EFT information. (1) The
Contractor is required to provide the Government with the information
required to make payment by EFT (see paragraph (j) of this clause). The
Contractor shall provide this information directly to the office
designated in this contract to receive that information (hereafter:
\"designated office\") by ten (10) days after award. If not otherwise
specified in this contract, the payment office is the designated office
for receipt of the Contractor\'s EFT information. If more than one
designated office is named for the contract, the Contractor shall
provide a separate notice to each office. In the event that the EFT
information changes, the Contractor shall be responsible for providing
the updated information to the designated office(s).

\(2\) If the Contractor provides EFT information applicable to multiple
contracts, the Contractor shall specifically state the applicability of
this EFT information in terms acceptable to the designated office.
However, EFT information supplied to a designated office shall be
applicable only to contracts that identify that designated office as the
office to receive EFT information for that contract.

\(c\) 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. (1) The Government is not required to make
any payment under this contract until after receipt, by the designated
office, of the correct EFT payment information from the Contractor.
Until receipt of the correct EFT information, 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.

\(2\) If the EFT information changes after submission of correct EFT
information, the Government shall begin using the changed EFT
information no later than 30 days after its receipt by the designated
office to the extent payment is made by EFT. However, the Contractor may
request that no further payments be made until the updated EFT
information is implemented by the payment office. If such suspension
would result in a late payment under the prompt payment terms of this
contract, the Contractor\'s request for suspension shall extend the due
date for payment by the number of days of the suspension.

\(e\) 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 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)
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 provide the EFT information
required by paragraph (j) of this clause to the designated office, and
shall be paid by EFT in accordance with the terms of this clause. 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 provided 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 in the contract.

\(j\) EFT information. The Contractor shall provide the following
information to the designated office. The Contractor may supply this
data for this or multiple contracts (see paragraph (b) of this clause).
The Contractor shall designate a single financial agent per contract
capable of receiving and processing the EFT information using the EFT
methods described in paragraph (c) of this clause.

\(1\) The contract number (or other procurement identification number).

\(2\) The Contractor\'s name and remittance address, as stated in the

contract(s).

\(3\) The signature (manual or electronic, as appropriate), title, and
telephone number of the Contractor official authorized to provide this
information.

\(4\) The signature (manual or electronic, as appropriate), title, and
telephone number of the Contractor official authorized to provide this
information.

\(5\) The name, address, and 9-digit Routing Transit Number of the
Contractor\'s financial agent.

\(6\) The Contractor\'s account number and the type of account
(checking, saving, or lockbox).

\(7\) If applicable, the Fedwire Transfer System telegraphic
abbreviation of the Contractor\'s financial agent.

\(8\) If applicable, the Contractor shall also provide the name,
address, telegraphic abbreviation, and 9-digit Routing Transit Number of
the correspondent financial institution receiving the wire transfer
payment if the Contractor\'s financial agent is not directly on-line to
the Fedwire Transfer System; and, therefore, not the receiver of the
wire transfer payment.

(End of clause)

**I.86 52.236-1 PERFORMANCE OF WORK BY THE CONTRACTOR (APR 1984)**

The Contractor shall perform on the site, and with its own organization,
work equivalent to at least twenty (20) percent of the total amount of
work to be performed under the contract. This percentage may be reduced
by a supplemental agreement to this contract if, during performing the
work, the Contractor requests a reduction and the Contracting Officer
determines that the reduction would be to the advantage of the
Government.

(End of clause)

**I.87 52.244-6 SUBCONTRACTS FOR COMMERCIAL ITEMS (May 2002)**

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

\"Commercial item\" has the meaning contained in the clause at 52.202-1,
Definitions.

\"Subcontract\" includes a transfer of commercial items between
divisions, subsidiaries, or affiliates of the Contractor or
subcontractor at any tier.

\(b\) To the maximum extent practicable, the Contractor shall

\(a\) Bidders are responsible for submitting bids, and any modifications
or withdrawals, so as to reach the Government office designated in the
invitation for bids (IFB) by the time specified in the IFB. If no time
is specified in the IFB, the time receipt is 4:30 p.m., local time, for
the designated Government office on the date that bids are due.

(b)(1) Any bid, modification, or withdrawal received at the Government
office designated in the IFB after the exact time specified for receipt
of bids is \"late\" and will not be considered unless it is received
before award is made, the Contracting Officer determines that accepting
the late bid would not unduly delay the acquisition; and\--

\(i\) If it was transmitted through an electronic commerce method
authorized by the IFB, it was received at the initial port of entry to
the Government infrastructure not later than 5:00 p.m. one working day
prior to the date specified for receipt of bids; or

\(ii\) There is acceptable evidence to establish that it was received at
the Government installation designated for receipt of bids and was under
the Government\'s control prior to the time set for receipt of bids.

\(2\) However, a late modification of an otherwise successful bid that
makes its terms more favorable to the Government, will be considered at
any time it is received and may be accepted.

\(c\) Acceptable evidence to establish the time of receipt at the
Government installation includes the time/date stamp of that
installation on the bid wrapper, other documentary evidence of receipt
maintained by the installation, or oral testimony or statements of
Government personnel.

\(d\) If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal
Government processes so that bids cannot be received at the Government
office designated for receipt of bids by the exact time specified in the
IFB and urgent Government requirements preclude amendment of the IFB,
the time specified for receipt of bids will be deemed to be extended to
the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day
on which normal Government processes resume.

\(e\) Bids may be withdrawn by written notice received at any time
before the exact time set for receipt of bids. If the IFB authorizes
facsimile bids, bids may be withdrawn via facsimile received at any time
before the exact time set for receipt of bids, subject to the conditions
specified in the provision at 52.214-31, Facsimile Bids. A bid may be
withdrawn in person by a bidder or its authorized representative if,
before the exact time set for receipt of bids, the identity of the
person requesting withdrawal is established and the person signs a
receipt for the bid.

any bid form.

\(b\) The bid form may require bidders to submit bid prices for one or
more items on various bases, including\--

\(1\) Lump sum bidding;

\(2\) Alternate prices;

\(3\) Units of construction; or

\(4\) Any combination of subparagraphs (1) through (3) above.

\(c\) If the solicitation requires bidding on all items, failure to do
so will disqualify the bid. If bidding on all items is not required,

item on which no price is submitted.

\(d\) Alternate bids will not be considered unless this solicitation
authorizes their submission.

(End of provision)

**L.11 52.214-19 CONTRACT AWARD\--SEALED BIDDING\--CONSTRUCTION (AUG
1996)**

\(a\) The Government will evaluate bids in response to this solicitation
without discussions and will award a contract to the responsible bidder
whose bid, conforming to the solicitation, will be most advantageous to
the Government, considering only price and the price-related factors
specified elsewhere in the solicitation.

\(b\) The Government may reject any or all bids, and waive informalities
or minor irregularities in bids received.

\(c\) The Government may accept any item or combination of items, unless
doing so is precluded by a restrictive limitation in the solicitation or
the bid.

\(d\) The Government may reject a bid as nonresponsive if the prices bid
are materially unbalanced between line items or subline items. A bid is
materially unbalanced when it is based on prices significantly less than
cost for some work and prices which are significantly overstated in
relation to cost for other work, and if there is a reasonable doubt that
the bid will result in the lowest overall cost to the Government even
though it may be the low evaluated bid, or if it is so unbalanced as to
be tantamount to allowing an advance payment.

**L.13 52.222-23 NOTICE OF REQUIREMENT FOR AFFIRMATIVE ACTION TO ENSURE
EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY FOR CONSTRUCTION (FEB 1999)**

\(a\) The offeror\'s attention is called to the Equal Opportunity clause
and the Affirmative Action Compliance Requirements for Construction
clause of this solicitation.

\(b\) The goals for minority and female participation, expressed in
percentage terms for the Contractor\'s aggregate workforce in each trade
on all construction work in the covered area, are as follows:

\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\--

Goals for minority participation for each trade
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-- 19.6%
\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

Goals for female participation for each trade
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-- 6.9%
\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

These goals are applicable to all the Contractor\'s construction work
performed in the covered area. If the Contractor performs construction
work in a geographical area located outside of the covered area, the
Contractor shall apply the goals established for the geographical area
where the work is actually performed. Goals are published periodically
in the Federal Register in notice form, and these notices may be
obtained from any Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs office.

\(c\) The Contractor\'s compliance with Executive Order 11246, as
amended, and the regulations in 41 CFR 60-4 shall be based on (1) its
implementation of the Equal Opportunity clause, (2) specific affirmative
action obligations required by the clause entitled \"Affirmative Action
Compliance Requirements for Construction,\" and (3) its efforts to meet
the goals. The hours of minority and female employment and training must
be substantially uniform throughout the length of the contract, and in
each trade. The Contractor shall make a good faith effort to employ
minorities and women evenly on each of its projects. The transfer of
minority or female employees or trainees from Contractor to Contractor,
or from project to project, for the sole purpose of meeting the
Contractor\'s goals shall be a violation of the contract, Executive
Order 11246, as amended, and the regulations in 41 CFR 60-4. Compliance
with the goals will be measured against the total work hours performed.

\(d\) The Contractor shall provide written notification to the Deputy
Assistant Secretary for Federal Contract Compliance, U.S. Department of
Labor, within 10 working days following award of any construction
subcontract in excess of \$10,000 at any tier for construction work
under the contract resulting from this solicitation. The notification
shall list the\--

\(1\) Name, address, and telephone number of the subcontractor;

\(2\) Employer\'s identification number of the subcontractor;

\(3\) Estimated dollar amount of the subcontract;

\(4\) Estimated starting and completion dates of the subcontract; and

\(5\) Geographical area in which the subcontract is to be performed.

\(e\) As used in this Notice, and in any contract resulting from this
solicitation, the \"covered area\" is Maricopa County, Arizona.

**L.14 52.225-10 NOTICE OF BUY AMERICAN ACT REQUIREMENT\--CONSTRUCTION
MATERIALS (MAY 2002)**

\(a\) Definitions. \"Construction material,\" \"domestic construction
material,\" and \"foreign construction material,\" as used in this
provision, are defined in the clause of this solicitation entitled \"Buy
American Act\--Construction Materials\" (Federal Acquisition Regulation
(FAR) clause 52.225-9).

\(b\) Requests for determinations of inapplicability. An offeror
requesting a determination regarding the inapplicability of the Buy
American Act should submit the request to the Contracting Officer in
time to allow a determination before submission of offers. The offeror
shall include the information and applicable supporting data required by
paragraphs (c) and (d) of the clause at FAR 52.225-9 in the request. If
an offeror has not requested a determination regarding the
inapplicability of the Buy American Act before submitting its offer, or
has not received a response to a previous request, the offeror shall
include the information and supporting data in the offer.

\(c\) Evaluation of offers. (1) The Government will evaluate an offer
requesting exception to the requirements of the Buy American Act, based
on claimed unreasonable cost of domestic construction material, by
adding to the offered price the appropriate percentage of the cost of
such foreign construction material, as specified in paragraph (b)(3)(i)
of the clause at FAR 52.225-9.

\(2\) If evaluation results in a tie between offeror that requested the
substitution of foreign construction material based on unreasonable cost
and an offeror that did not request an exception, the Contracting
Officer will award to the offeror that did not request an exception
based on unreasonable cost.

\(d\) Alternate offers. (1) When an offer includes a foreign
construction material not listed by the Government in this solicitation
in paragraph (b)(2) of the clause at FAR 52.225-9, the offeror also may
submit an alternate offer based on use of equivalent domestic
construction material.

\(2\) If an alternate offer is submitted, the offeror shall submit a
separate Standard Form 1442 for the alternate offer, and a separate
price comparison table prepared in accordance with paragraphs (c) and
(d) of the clause at FAR 52.225-9 for the offer that is based on the use
of any foreign construction material for which the Government has not
yet determined an exception applies.

\(3\) If the Government determines that a particular exception requested
in accordance with paragraph (c) of the clause at FAR 52.225-9 does not
apply, the Government will evaluate only those offers based on use of
the equivalent domestic construction material, and the offeror shall be
required to furnish such domestic construction material. An offer based
on use of the foreign construction material for which an exception was
requested\--

\(i\) Will be rejected as nonresponsive if this acquisition is conducted
by sealed bidding; or

\(ii\) May be accepted if revised during negotiations.

be stated. If it is not stated, the bidder agrees that the lump sum
adjustment shall be applied on a pro-rata basis to every unit price in
the bid schedule. (c) When alternate items and/or performance schedules
are set forth in this solicitation, the Government reserves the right to
make award of the alternate items and/or performance schedule when,
price and other factors considered, it is determined that the alternate
items and/or performance is in the best interest of the Government.

**M.2 LM.0000-0002 AWARD ON AN ALL OR NONE BASIS (WAPA 11/95)**

Failure to bid on all the items in the solicitation will render your bid
nonresponsive. The award resulting from this solicitation will be on an
\"all or none basis.\" Only one award will be made from this
solicitation.

**M.3 LM.0000-0014 UNBALANCED BIDS (WAPA 11/99)**

The Government may reject a bid as nonresponsive if the prices bid are
materially unbalanced between line items. A bid is materially unbalanced
when it is based on prices significantly less than cost for some work
and prices which are significantly overstated in relation to cost for
other work, and if there is a reasonable doubt that the bid will result
in the overall lowest cost to the Government even though it may be the
low evaluated bid, or it is so unbalanced as to be tantamount to
allowing an advance payment. For the purposes of providing for expenses
incident to the initiation of construction and to discourage unbalanced
bidding, the price for item number ONE (1), Mobilization and Preparatory
Work, shall not exceed 5 percent of the total for the schedule. **IF IT
EXCEEDS 5 PERCENT, THE BID WILL BE REJECTED AS NON-RESPONSIVE.**

WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS

1.) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can

be:

\* an existing published wage determination

\* a survey underlying a wage determination

\* a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a

position on a wage determination matter

\* a conformance (additional classification and rate)

ruling

On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests

for summaries of surveys, should be with the Wage and Hour

Regional Office for the area in which the survey was conducted

because those Regional Offices have responsibility for the

Davis-Bacon survey program. If the response from this initial

contact is not satisfactory, then the process described in 2.)

and 3.) should be followed.

With regard to any other matter not yet ripe for the formal

process described here, initial contact should be with the Branch

of Construction Wage Determinations. Write to:

WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS

1.) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can

be:

\* an existing published wage determination

\* a survey underlying a wage determination

\* a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a

position on a wage determination matter

\* a conformance (additional classification and rate)

ruling

On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests

for summaries of surveys, should be with the Wage and Hour

Regional Office for the area in which the survey was conducted

because those Regional Offices have responsibility for the

Davis-Bacon survey program. If the response from this initial

contact is not satisfactory, then the process described in 2.)

and 3.) should be followed.

With regard to any other matter not yet ripe for the formal

process described here, initial contact should be with the Branch

of Construction Wage Determinations. Write to:

Branch of Construction Wage Determinations

Wage and Hour Division

U. S. Department of Labor

200 Constitution Avenue, N. W.

Washington, D. C. 20210

2.) If the answer to the question in 1.) is yes, then an

interested party (those affected by the action) can request

review and reconsideration from the Wage and Hour Administrator

(See 29 CFR Part 1.8 and 29 CFR Part 7). Write to:

Wage and Hour Administrator

U.S. Department of Labor

200 Constitution Avenue, N. W.

Washington, D. C. 20210

The request should be accompanied by a full statement of the

interested party\'s position and by any information (wage payment

data, project description, area practice material, etc.) that the

requestor considers relevant to the issue.

3.) If the decision of the Administrator is not favorable, an

interested party may appeal directly to the Administrative Review

Board (formerly the Wage Appeals Board). Write to:

Administrative Review Board

U. S. Department of Labor

200 Constitution Avenue, N. W.

Washington, D. C. 20210

4.) All decisions by the Administrative Review Board are final.

\*Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), paragraph 19.708(b), prescribes
the use of the clause at FAR 52.219-9, entitled \"Small Business
Subcontracting Plan,\" dated January 2002. The following is a suggested
model for use when formulating such subcontracting plan. While this
model plan has been designed to be consistent with FAR 52.219-9, other
formats of a subcontracting plan may be acceptable. However, failure to
include the essential information as exemplified in this model may be
cause for either a delay in acceptance or the rejection of a bid or
offer where the clause is applicable. Further, the use of this model is
not intended to waive other requirements that may be applicable under
FAR 52.219-9. \"SUBCONTRACT,\" as used in this clause, means any
agreement (other than one involving an employer-employee relationship)
entered into by a Federal Government prime contractor or subcontractor
called for supplies or services required for performance of the contract
or subcontract.

**1.** **[Type of Plan: (Check one)]{.underline}**

**[Individual Contract Plan:]{.underline}** A plan that covers the
entire contract period (including option periods), applies to a specific
contract, and has goals that are based on the offeror's planned
subcontracting in support of the specific contract, except that indirect
costs incurred for common or joint purposes, may be allocated on a
prorated basis to the contract.

**[Master Plan:]{.underline}** A plan that contains all the required
elements of an individual contract plan, except goals, and may be
incorporated into individual contract plans, provided the master plan
has been approved.

**[Commercial Products Plan:]{.underline}** A plan including goals that
covers the offeror's fiscal year and that applies to the entire
production of commercial items sold by either the entire company or a
portion thereof (e.g., division, plant, or product line).

> provide a separate statement for the basic contract and individual
> statements for each option year.)

Office of Minority Business Development Agency in the Department of
Commerce; or the small, small disadvantaged, HUBZone, veteran-owned,
service-disabled veteran-owned, and women-owned small business trade
associations. Your firm may rely on the information contained in PRO-Net
as an accurate representation of a concern's size and ownership
characteristics for the purposes of maintaining a small, HUBZone,
veteran-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned, small disadvantaged, and
women-owned small business source list. The use of PRO-Net as your
source list does not relieve your firm of its responsibilities (e.g.,
outreach, assistance, counseling, or publicizing subcontracting
opportunities.

5\. Indirect costs have have not been included in the dollars and
percentage subcontracting goals stated above. **(Check one).**

6\. If indirect costs have been included, explain the method used to

9\. **[Flow down clause]{.underline}**

The contractor agrees to include the provisions under FAR 52.219-8,
\"Utilization of Small

Business Concerns\" in all subcontracts that offer further
subcontracting opportunities and that

the offeror will require all subcontractors (except small business
concerns) that receive

subcontracts in excess of \$500,000 (\$1,000,000 for construction of any
public facility) to adopt

and comply with a plan similar to the plan required by FAR 52.219-9,
\"Small Business

Subcontracting Plan.\" (FAR 19.704(a).

10\. **[Reporting and Cooperation]{.underline}**

The contractor gives assurance of (1) cooperation in any studies or
surveys that may be

required; (2) submission of period reports which show compliance with
the subcontracting

plan; (3) submission of SF 294, \"Subcontracting Report for Individual
Contracts,\" and SF 295,

\"Summary Subcontract Report,\" in accordance with the instructions on
the forms; and (4)

ensuring that large business subcontractors with subcontracting plans
agree to submit SF 294

and SF 295.

**[Reporting Period]{.underline} [Report Due]{.underline} [Due
Date]{.underline}**

Oct 1 - March 31 SF 294 04/30

Apr 1 - Sept 30 SF 294 10/30

Oct 1 - Sept 30 SF 295 10/30

Note: The due date includes the 30-day grace period.

**[ADDRESSES:]{.underline}**

> \(a\) SF 294 is to be submitted to the cognizant Contracting Officer
> or as otherwise specified in the contract or the agency; and
>
> \(b\) SF 295 is to be submitted to the Office of Small and
> Disadvantaged Business Utilization of the procuring agency, or as
> otherwise specified in the contract or the agency; and to the
> cognizant SBA Commercial Market Representative.

The SF 294 is submitted semiannually and at contract completion. The
report covers subcontract award data related to this contract. This
report is not required for commercial plans.

The SF 295 encompasses all the contracts with the awarding agency. It
must be submitted annually. If the reporting activity is covered by a
commercial plan, the reporting activity must report annually all
subcontract awards under that plan. All reports submitted at the close
of each fiscal year (both individual and commercial plans) shall include
a breakout, in the Contractor's format, of subcontract awards, in whole
dollars, to small disadvantaged business concerns by North American
Industry Classification System (NAICS). For a commercial plan, the
contractor may obtain from each of its subcontractors a predominant
NAICS and report all awards to the subcontractor under its predominant
NAICS.

**NOTE: It should be noted that the Department of Energy has a new
Subcontracting Reporting System (SRS) through the Internet in which SF
294\'s and SF 295\'s are to be transmitted. Contractors must register
with a valid DUNNS number with the cognizant contracting activity. The
new SRS is found at <http://www.pr.doe.gov/srs/>. When the contractor
registration is approved, the contractor will transmit the above
mentioned forms using this method.**

**11. [Record keeping]{.underline}**

The following is a recitation of the types of records the contractor
will maintain to demonstrate the procedures adopted to comply with the
requirements and goals in the subcontracting plan. These records will
include, but not be limited to, the following:

A. If the prime contractor is not using PRO-Net as its source for small,
small disadvantaged, HUBZone, veteran-owned, service-disabled
veteran-owned, and women-owned small business concerns, list the names
of guides and other data identifying such vendors.

B. Organizations contacted in an attempt to locate small, small
disadvantaged, HUBZone, veteran-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned,
and women-owned small business concerns.

C. On a contract-by-contract basis, records on each subcontract
solicitation resulting in an award of more than \$100,000 indicating:
(1) whether **small business** concerns were solicited, and if not, why
not; (2) whether **small disadvantaged** business concerns were
solicited, and if not, why not; (3) whether **HUBZone** small businesses
were solicited, and if not, why not; (4) whether **veteran-owned** small
businesses were solicited, and if not, why not; (5) whether
**service-disabled veteran-owned** small businesses were solicited, and
if not, why not; (6) whether **women-owned** small business concerns
were solicited, and if not, why not; and (7) if applicable, the reason
that the award was not made to a small business concern.

D. Records to support other outreach efforts, e.g., contacts with
minority and small business trade associations, attendance at small and
minority business procurement conferences and trade fairs.

E. Records to support internal guidance and encouragement provided to
contract specialist through: (1) workshops, seminars, training programs,
incentive awards; and (2) monitoring of activities to evaluate
compliance.

F. On a contract-by-contract basis, records to support subcontract award
data including the name, address, and business size of each
subcontractor. (This item is not required on a contract-by-contract
basis for company or division-wide commercial plans).

> G. Additional records:

12\. In order to effectively implement this plan to the extent
consistent with efficient contract performance, the Contractor shall
perform the following actions:

A. Assist small business, HUBZone small business, small disadvantaged
business, veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned
small business, and women-owned small business concerns by arranging
solicitations, time for the preparation of bids, quantities,
specifications, and delivery schedules so as to facilitate the
participation by such concerns. Where the Contractor's lists of
potential small business, HUBZone small business, veteran-owned small
business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, small
disadvantaged business, and women-owned small business subcontractors
are excessively long, reasonable effort shall be made to give all such
small business concerns an opportunity to compete over a period of time.

B. Provide adequate and timely consideration of the potentialities of
small business, HUBZone small business, veteran-owned small business,
service-disabled veteran-owned small business, small disadvantaged
business, and women-owned small business concerns in all \"make-or-buy\"
decisions.

C. Counsel and discuss subcontracting opportunities with representatives
of small business, HUBZone small business, small disadvantaged business,
veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small
business, and women-owned small business firms.

D. Provide notice to subcontractors concerning penalties and remedies
for misrepresentations of business status as small, HUBZone small, small
disadvantaged, veteran-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned or
women-owned small business for the purpose of obtaining a subcontract
that is to be included as part or all of a goal contained in the
Contractor\'s subcontracting plan.

13\. The **Master Plan** on a plant or division-wide basis that contains
all the elements, except goals, may be incorporated by reference as a
part of the subcontracting plan required of the offeror by the clause,
provided:

A. The master plan has been approved.

B. The offeror ensures that the master plan is updated as necessary and

*Message from the Administrator*

Many words are written about commitment and policy concerning
occupational safety and health programs. But until these words are put
into action, they remain just words. We at Western believe that safety
is not just a piece of paper but integrated actions in everyday work
practices. Safety is a way of life at Western, a condition of
employment. Our program is based on four points.

-   Safety procedures or common sense must not be set aside by any
    employee, whether Federal or contract, to meet a project schedule or
    for personal convenience.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   Employees and contractors must believe that they have the right and
    the responsibility for identifying and taking action to reduce, if
    not eliminate, hazardous work environments and hazardous work
    practices.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   Managers and supervisors must lead by example and execute their
    responsibility to ensure each job is accomplished in a safe and
    healthful manner.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   Safety is a personal responsibility. Each individual makes the
    decision on what action to take to accomplish a task.

I am personally committed to a strong safety program and am asking you
to join me in this commitment. Together we can make Western a safe place
to work.
