AMC-LEVEL PROTEST (NOV 2008) If you have complaints about this procurement, it is preferable that you first attempt to resolve those concerns with the responsible Contracting Officer. 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. If you want to file a protest under the AMC-Level Protest Program, the protest must request resolution under that program and be sent to the address below. All other agency-level protests should be sent to the contracting officer for resolution. Statement of Work (SoW) C.1 General C.1.1 Scope. The contractor shall provide incineration/destruction services for classified and sensitive information produced by the Aberdeen Test Center (ATC) located at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland. ATC waste material will consist of paper products, film, X-rays, videotapes, computer media, typewriter ribbons and other associated media storage and briefing material. Rubbish or routine trash shall not be included. C.1.2 Period of Performance. The contract period of performance shall be one base year from contract award date with two option years. C.2 Place of Performance The performance shall take place at the contractor's facility. C.3 Requirements C.3.1 The contractor shall provide the operation of and the facility that would destroy classified and sensitive material to preclude any recognition or reconstruction. C.3.2 The contractor shall use a means of pyrolysis (high temperature, multistage) using forced air incinerators or other incineration equipment which will reduce waste material to an ash or particle size that will make recognition or reconstruction of the information impossible. C.3.3 Contractor pyrolytic furnaces shall operate in compliance with Federal Clean Act Regulatory Standards. C.3.4 The contractor shall allow an appointed and cleared government civilian representative to witness destruction of the classified and sensitive waste material. The government civilian representative will not take an active role in destruction, but will be positioned, by the contractor, to witness destruction. The government civilian representative will comply with contractor facility safety requirements. A government civilian must maintain constant visual contact from the time that the material is collected at ATC until the time that it has been completely destroyed to the point that it cannot be recognized or reconstructed per Army Regulation (AR) 380-5, Department of the Army Information Security Program, paragraph 3-15a dated 29 September 2000. Visual eye contact must occur by the government civilian employee at all times. C.3.4.1 The government civilian representative will identify themselves on arrival. The contractor shall provide the identified government civilian representative with a facility safety orientation that details required personal safety equipment and essential safety rules he/she shall observe while witnessing destruction. C.3.4.2 In addition, there are times when additional security measures must be taken due to the sensitivity of the material to be destroyed. Under these circumstances, two government civilian representatives must witness the destruction of the special category classified material and they must also witness that immediately after the destruction, a load of unclassified material is incinerated to ensure that the classified waste has completely gone through the entire destruction cycle per the Joint Air Force-Army-Navy (JAFAN) 6.0 Manual Special Access Program Security Manual, paragraph 5-705 dated 29 May 2008. C.3.5 Scheduling is done for the convenience of both parties. Since classified material is involved, the government requires assurance of controlled facility access. The contractor shall ensure that routine destruction operations are suspended until government material has been moved from the truck to the incinerator. This brief suspension will allow the government civilian representative to track movement of classified waste from the delivery vehicle, to the incinerator, to combustion and destruction. C.3.6 The contractor shall not mix normal waste with government waste until the government civilian representative verifies that all classified waste is in the incinerator and that combustion has occurred. Once the government civilian representative has confirmed destruction, the contractor can resume normal operations. C.3.6.1 The contractor shall provide all receipts, weight tickets, and/or any other documentation to the government civilian representative upon completion of each service. C.4 Delivery Schedule C.4.1 The government requires a minimum of one destruction/incinerator visit twice a year with an estimate of 60,000 pounds of waste per visit. C.4.2 The government will conduct advance coordination for destruction/incineration with the contractor. The government will coordinate a date/hour of a destruction visit no less than one week in advance to minimize any disruption of normal business operations. C.4.3 The Government is responsible for transporting the classified and sensitive information from ATC to the incineration facility. C.4.4 The government will provide personnel to off-load boxes for destruction at the contractor facility.
