REQUIRED DELIVERY SCHEDULE The Government will evaluate equally, as regards time of delivery, offers that propose delivery of each quantity within the applicable delivery period specified above. Offers that propose delivery that will not clearly fall within the applicable required delivery period specified above, will be considered nonresponsive and rejected. The Government reserves the right to award under either the required delivery schedule or the proposed delivery schedule, when an offeror offers an earlier delivery schedule than required above.

The Government will mail or otherwise furnish to the offeror an award or notice of award not later than the day award is dated. Therefore, the offeror should compute the time available for performance beginning with the actual date of award, rather than the date the written notice of award is received from the Contracting Officer through the ordinary mails. However, the Government will evaluate an offer that proposes delivery based on the Contractor's date of receipt of the contract or notice of award by adding (1) five calendar days for delivery of the award through the ordinary mails, or (2) one working day if the solicitation states that the contract or notice of award will be transmitted electronically. (The term working day excludes weekends and U.S. Federal holidays.) If, as so computed, the offered delivery date is later than the required delivery date, the offer will be considered nonresponsive and rejected. (End of clause) Local Contract Provisions and Clauses pertaining to this solicitation in full text as follows: CCE 225-4000 AUTHORIZATION TO PERFORM SERVICES IN GERMANY (MAR 2005) Contractors performing services in the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG) shall comply with German law. The Contractor shall determine whether performance requires registration with German authorities or authorization to do business in Germany and, if so, shall comply with all requirements. Whether or not registration or authorization to do business is required, the Contractor also shall determine what documents or authorization its employees and any subcontractor employees must possess to work in Germany. The Contractor shall ensure affirmatively that its employees and subcontractor employees possess such documents or authorizations. Contractor employees who: (a) are not nationals of Germany or other European Union countries, and (b) are not members of the force, the civilian component or their dependents, and (c) do not have assimilated status under Articles 71, 72, or 73 of the Supplementary Agreement to the NATO SOFA, shall possess work- and residence-permits. By acceptance of and performance under this contract and any task orders or delivery orders issued hereunder, the Contractor affirms that it has complied with the requirements above. Compliance with this clause and German law is a material contract requirement. Noncompliance by the Contractor or Subcontractor at any tier shall be grounds for issuing a negative past performance evaluation and terminating this contract, task order, or delivery order for default. CCE 225-4001 INSTALLATION CLEARANCE REQUIREMENTS (MAR 2005) (a) Access to U.S. installations and controlled areas is limited to personnel who meet security criteria and are authorized by Host Nation law to work in that country. Failure to submit required information/data and obtain required documentation or clearances in accordance with AE Regulation 190-16, Installation Access Control, will be grounds for denying access to U.S. installations and controlled areas. The Contractor is responsible to ensure that any Subcontractor used in performance of this contract complies with these requirements and that all employees, of both the Contractor and any Subcontractor utilized by the contractor, are made aware of and comply with these requirements. (b) The Contractor is responsible for being aware of and complying with the requirements associated with Installation Access Control. The Government is not liable for any costs associated with performance delays due solely to a firms failure to comply with Installation Access Control (IAC) processing requirements. (c) The Contractor is responsible for returning installation passes to the issuing Installation Access Control Office (IACO) when the contract is completed or when a contractor employee no longer requires access.

However, you can also protest to Headquarters, AMC. The HQ, AMC-Level Protest Program is intended to encourage interested parties to seek resolution of their concerns within AMC as an Alternative Dispute Resolution forum, rather than filing a protest with the Government Accountability Office or other external forum. Contract award or performance is suspended during the protest to the same extent, and within the same time periods, as if filed at the GAO. The AMC protest decision goal is to resolve protests within 20 working days from filing. To be timely, protests must be filed within the periods specified in FAR 33.103. Send protests (other than protests to the contracting officer) to: HQ Army Materiel Command Office of Command Counsel 9301 Chapek Rd, Room 2-1SE3401 Ft. Belvoir, VA 22060-5527.

CCE 237-4000 CONTRACTOR IDENTIFICATION REQUIREMENT (MAR 2005) All Contractor personnel attending meetings, answering Government telephones, and working in other situations where their status as a Contractor is not obvious, are required to identify themselves as such to avoid being mistaken for Government officials. Contractors performing work at Government workplaces will provide their employees with an easily readable identification(ID)badge indicating the Employees name, the Contractors name, the functional area of assignment, and a recent color photograph of the Employee. Contractors shall require their employees wear the ID badges visibly when performing work at Government workplaces.
