Preventive maintenance must include at a minimum: (1) Perform operational checks and correct any deficiencies noted in accordance with manufacturer¡¦s specification; (2) Clean, lubricate, replace, and adjust mechanical parts in accordance with manufacturer¡¦s specifications; (3) Replace excessively worn or defective parts. Excessively worn parts are those parts that if not replace immediately may fail prior to the next scheduled preventive maintenance cycle; (4) Visually inspect the exterior of all readers for damage and cleanliness and report any discrepancies to the COR or his authorized representative; and (5) Consult with the COR or his designated representative regarding reader performance. The Contractor must maintain, at a minimum, a 95% (less reader preventive maintenance downtime) reader uptime or in service rate. In order to determine the uptime or in service rate, the COR or his designated representative, will periodically and randomly check all of the readers in the room to verify their operability and then calculate whether the 95% uptime or in service rate is being maintained. If the equipment uptime or in service rate drops below 95% at any time, the contractor must furnish functionally equivalent machines in good operating condition to maintain the 95% equipment uptime or in service rate while the defective machines are being repaired. REPLACEMENT PARTS. The contractor must only use manufacturer¡¦s new original or factory refurbished parts in the performance of this contract, except when the manufacturer or its successor companies no longer provide new or factory service parts for a malfunctioning machine. In such cases, the Contractor will provide in writing to the COR how it concluded that new or factory refurbished parts are no longer available. WARRANTY. The Contractor must perform all work within the strict terms and conditions of all existing commercial warranties (if any) on the equipment and must not perform work that would jeopardize said warranties. REPORTS. Upon work completion for each Contractor visit, the Contractor must submit a Contractor-designed inspection report to the COR or his designated representative. The report must include: (1) Contract Number; (2) Date; (3) Reader Number or Serial Number; (4) Name of service technician; (5) Maintenance performed; (6) Equipment downtime; (7) Part(s), if any, to be ordered; (8) Signature and date from the COR or his designated representative. Two work days after the end of the month, the Contractor must submit a Contractor-designed report to the COR or his designated representative that documents the fact that a 95% or greater equipment uptime or in service rate has been maintained. The report must include the following: (1) Reader number or Serial number; (2) Date; (3) Service downtime (in hours); (4) Total monthly downtime for all machined (in hours and percent). PERSONNEL. The Contractor must assure that all of their employees performing services under this contract have successfully passed the Contractor¡¦s screening process. The screening process shall at a minimum ensure that all employees are free of excessive use of alcohol, use of illegal drugs, free of violent and/or anti-social behavior; and dishonesty. The Contracting Officer or COR may request the Contractor to immediately prevent any employee(s) from performing work or continuing to perform under this contract should it be determined that individuals performing services are disqualified for either suitability or security reasons, are found to be unfit to perform their duties, or pose an unacceptable risk to Government equipment or personnel. INSPECTIONS. NARA reserves the right, during business hours and without notice, to inspect the Contractor¡¦s processes, procedures, and deliverables during the performance of this work.
