A major breach of safety is an act or omission of the Contractor that consists of an accident, incident, or exposure resulting in a fatality, serious injury, or mission failure; or in damage to equipment or property equal to or greater than $1 million; or in any "willful" or "repeat" violation cited by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) or by a state agency operating under an OSHA approved plan.

Rather, the Ombudsman assists with complaints by contract holders that focus upon procedural methods used to award orders under indefinite-delivery contracts per FAR 16.505. The Ombudsman reviews complaints to ensure that contract holders are afforded a fair opportunity to be considered, consistent with the ordering procedures stated in the specific indefinite-delivery contract. The Ombudsman does not adjudicate contract "protests" or "disputes" which are defined and covered under FAR Part 33 and specified contract clauses. Any submissions under the authority of this specific contract term do not meet any standard required for a "protest" or a "dispute" as defined in the FAR. Contract holders with complaints due to a specific action undertaken during the ordering process of a specific indefinite delivery contract must address their complaint in writing to: TSA Task and Delivery Order Ombudsman, Office of Acquisition (TSA-25), 601 S. 12th Street, Arlington, VA 20598-6025.

The following factors shall be used to evaluate offerors: Technical Acceptability Past Performance Manufacturing Capability Price Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the options. A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer's specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
