Contractors may also view DCAA pamphlet, DCAAP 7641.90, Information for Contractors, at http://www.dcaa.mil. DD Form 254, Contract Security Classification Specification applies; some positions may require a security clearance of Top Secret.

Organizational Conflict of Interest Clause AFFARS 5352.209-9002, with inclusion of Alternates III, IV and VI and an administrative access provision will be included in the contract. An ombudsman has been appointed to hear and facilitate the resolution of concerns from offerors, potential offerors, and others for this acquisition. When requested, the ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality as to the source of the concern. The existence of the ombudsman does not affect the authority of the program manager, contracting officer, or source selection official. The ombudsman does not participate in the evaluation of proposals, the source selection process, or the adjudication of protests or formal contract disputes. The ombudsman may refer the party to another official who can resolve the concern. Before consulting with an ombudsman, interested parties must first address their concerns, issues, disagreements, and/or recommendations to the contracting officer for resolution. Consulting an ombudsman does not alter or postpone the timelines for any other processes (e.g., agency level bid protests, GAO bid protests, requests for debriefings, employee-employer actions, contests of OMB Circular A-76 competition performance decisions). If resolution cannot be made by the contracting officer, concerned parties may contact the Center/MAJCOM ombudsman, Ms. Sue Hunter, AFRL/PK, 1864 4th Street, Bldg 15, Wright Patterson AFB, OH 45433-717, 937-255-0432, fax 937-255-5036, e-mail sue.hunter@wpafb.af.mil.

Any costs incurred as a result of this announcement shall be borne by the offeror and will not be charged to the Government.
