The Ombudsman Program for Agency Protests (OPAP) was established to investigate agency protest issues and resolve them without expensive and time-consuming litigation. OPAP is an independent reviewing authority that is empowered to grant a prevailing protester essentially the same relief as the Government Accountability Office (GAO). Interested parties are encouraged to seek resolution of their concerns within the USCG as an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) forum rather than filing a protest with the GAO or some external forum. Interested parties may seek resolution of their concerns informally or opt to file a formal agency protest with the Contracting Officer or Ombudsman. Informal Forum with the Ombudsman. Interested parties who believe a specific USCG procurement is unfair or otherwise defective should first direct their concerns to the applicable Contracting Officer. If the Contracting Officer is unable to satisfy their concerns, interested parties are encouraged to contact the U.S. Coast Guard Ombudsman for Agency Protests. Under this informal process, the agency is not required to suspend contract award performance. Use of an informal forum does not suspend any time requirement for filing a protest with the agency or other forum. In order to ensure a timely response, interested parties should provide the following information to the Ombudsman: solicitation/contract number, contracting office, Contracting Officer, and solicitation closing date (if applicable). Formal Agency Protest with the Ombudsman. Prior to submitting a formal agency protest, protesters must first use their best efforts to resolve their concerns with the Contracting Officer through open and frank discussions. If the protester's concerns are unresolved, an Independent Review is available by the Ombudsman. The protester may file a formal agency protest to either the Contracting Officer or as an alternative to that, the Ombudsman under the OPAP program. Contract award or performance will be suspended during the protest period unless contract award or performance is justified, in writing, for urgent and compelling reasons or is determined in writing to be in the best interest of the Government. The agency's goal is to resolve protests in less than 35 calendar days from the date of filing. Protests shall include the information set forth in FAR 33.103. If the protester fails to submit the required information, resolution of the protest may be delayed or the protest may be dismissed. To be timely protests must be filed within the period specified in FAR 33.103(e). Formal protests filed under the OPAP program should be submitted to: DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY UNITED STATES COAST GUARD (CG-91) OMBUDSMAN PROGRAM FOR AGENCY PROTESTS EMAIL: OPAP@uscg.mil Fax: 202-372-8447 Phone: 202-475-5786 More information about the Ombudsman Program for Agency Protests (OPAP) can be found at http://www.uscg.mil/acquisition/business/ombudsman.asp Alternative Point of Contact: United States Coast Guard Surface Forces Logistics Center Contracting Officer: Jennifer Lucas 2401 Hawkins Point RD Baltimore, MD 21226-5000 Email: Jennifer.B.Lucas@uscg.mil COMBINED SYNOPSIS/SOLICITATION NUMBER HSCG40-17-Q-19001 87' PATROL BOAT PROPULSION SHAFTS REPAIR AND MANUFACTURE Period of Performance: April 2017 - March 2022 I.

The offerors shall include past performance information for any teaming partners to be utilized during performance and must be relevant to the scope of work they may perform under the Requirements Contract resulting from this solicitation. References other than those provided by the Offeror may be provided by the Government to obtain additional information that will be used in the evaluation of the offeror's past performance such as government databases and internal organization. Offerors lacking relevant past performance history will receive a Neutral Rating for past performance. The offeror will be evaluated neither favorably nor unfavorably on past performance. Relevant Past Performance history will be rated higher than Neutral past performance. FACTOR #3 COST/PRICE: The price shall represent the best price in response to the request for quote. The price shall be evaluated to determine fairness and reasonableness. Vendors are required to provide prices for all items/CLINs for the Base and all Option years. All prices on CLINs (Attachment I Schedule of Supplies and Prices) shall be firm fixed-price with the cost of packaging, marking and bar-coding along with shipping, F.O.B. Destination, included in the cost of the parts. The total of all CLINs will be added together to arrive at an aggregate total. (Note that the Extended Price column and Extended Total should automatically calculate and populate if entering the amounts directly into the spreadsheets.) Offerors must include a completed copy of the provision at FAR 52.212-3, Offeror Representations and Certifications - Commercial Items, with its offer. The Government intends to evaluate quotations and award a contract without discussions. Therefore, the initial quotation should contain the vendor's best terms from a cost standpoint and all other factors being considered. The Government reserves the right to seek information clarifying any element of a quotation prior to award without discussions. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines it necessary. (b) 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 option(s). (c) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful vendor 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. (End of Provision) BASIS FOR AWARD The Government will award one (1) Requirements contract to the Offeror's determined to provide the best value on the basis of all non-price and price related factors. The evaluation of quotes submitted in response to this solicitation shall be conducted on a source selection basis utilizing a "tradeoff" process to obtain the best value to the Government. As part of the tradeoff determination, the relative strengths, weaknesses and risks of each quote shall be considered in selecting the offer that is most advantageous and represents the best overall value to the Government. A trade off will be made between cost and non-cost factors permitting acceptance of other than the lowest price offer. In determining best value, the total cost/price, including options and other cost factors is considered to be less important than technical merit. Past performance is considered to be of equal importance to technical merit. However, the closer the merits of the combination of the Technical Plan and Past Performance are to one another, the greater will be the importance of price in making the award determination. In the event that two or more technical plan and past performance reports are determined equivalent, award may be made to the lower price quote provided the price is reasonable and realistic. The Government intends to award contracts based on the initial offers and without discussions, although clarifications (as defined in FAR 15.306(a)) may be needed. If discussions are held, the Government will conduct discussions with all firms that have been found to be responsive and request final proposal revisions. X.

In the course of the hearing, the taxpayer is entitled to contest the underlying tax liability because the taxpayer has had no prior opportunity to contest the liability.

Should the taxpayer seek tax court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights. (C) The taxpayer has entered into an installment agreement pursuant to I.R.C. §6159. The taxpayer is making timely payments and is in full compliance with the agreement terms. The taxpayer is not delinquent because the taxpayer is not currently required to make full payment. (D) The taxpayer has filed for bankruptcy protection.
