E Cornfoot Road, Portland, Oregon 97218. No other U.S. Military Personnel will be covered by the scope of this document and contract.

1.2. Provide smoke free double occupancy hotel rooms. The total number of Soldiers attending training may fluctuate and dependent upon the needs of the Army; however, it is estimated that lodging requirements will not exceed 111 persons. Thirty (30) days prior to the arrival dates, the KO or COR will provide an initial lodging list of Soldier’s names and room assignment to the contractor. At a minimum of three (3) days prior to the arrival dates, the Contracting Officer (KO) or Government Point of Contact (POC) will notify the contractor of any updates to the lodging requirements. A minimum of one (1) day 24 hrs notification, prior to scheduled arrival, will be given of any cancellations without incurring a cancellation charge. Hotels must be within 15 mile radius of the main entrance gate to Portland Air National Guard Base. Contractor is authorized to use one or more partner hotels to accommodate total number of Soldiers should there be in issue with accommodating the number of Soldiers needing lodging. However, priority is for accommodating all personnel at one primary hotel. Exceptions require prior written approval by the KO, or their duly appointed representative.

1.3. Rooms must be provided for consecutive days. Contractors may not move Soldiers from one room to another without prior approval from 102 OR CERFP.

1.5. No more than 75 Soldiers will require lodging services. This number is an estimate only, based on the best information currently available to the government. The contractor shall reserve requested rooms until 9:00 PM each evening.

1.7. Payment will be made for the actual number of rooms ordered, unless a room is canceled less than 24 hours prior to the scheduled arrival date.

1.8. Soldiers who arrive at the hotel on an earlier date than the scheduled arrival date or need to extend their stay beyond the set departure date will be responsible for all charges incurred prior to the scheduled arrival/departure dates (to include room charge).

1.9 Soldiers who need to depart at an earlier date than the scheduled departure date will not be responsible for any room charges incurred by the set departure date, nor the Government, providing at least 24 hour notice was provided to the lodging facility by the Soldier or 102 OR CERFP.

1.10. Illegal Acts. The contractor shall not knowingly condone illegal acts on the premises of his/her establishment.

1.11. Liability. Each guest, not the Government, assumes liability for any damage caused by them.

Inspections may be announced or unannounced.

1.14. Courtesy. The contractor’s employees shall be courteous to all persons served under this contract. Courtesy and services rendered shall be equal to that rendered to any other customer and expected of any public lodging facility.

parking for our guests.

2.0 Specific Tasks

2.1. All rooms will be double occupancy and two (2) Soldiers will be assigned per room at all times. If the list of Soldiers who require lodging presents an odd number then 102 OR CERFP will identify the Soldier to the lodging facility who will be the single occupant in a double occupancy room. The number of double occupancy rooms required will be defined by this list

2.2. In case of emergency, the contractor will be permitted to move Soldiers to another room, or extreme case, to another facility or hotel. This will be permitted on an emergency basis only and requires prior approval by the Government POC or KO. If the emergency is such that prior approval cannot be obtained, the contractor shall notify the KO or Government POC as early as possible on the following work day. Over booking by the hotel does not constitute an emergency. Examples of what constitutes an emergency are as follows:

2.2.1. Rooms become uninhabitable due to storm or fire damage.

2.3. Provide accommodations, services, and privileges normally extended to any guest of the establishment shall also be given to Soldiers staying at the establishment.

FAR 13.004 — Legal Effect of Quotations.
(a) Any response to this synopsis/solicitation will be considered a “quotation”.
“Offer” means a response to a solicitation that, if accepted, would bind the offeror to perform the resultant contract. Responses to invitations for bids (sealed bidding) are offers called “bids” or “sealed bids”; responses to requests for proposals (negotiation) are offers called “proposals”; however, responses to requests for quotations (simplified acquisition) are “quotations,” not offers.
Quotation is not an offer and, consequently, cannot be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract. Therefore, issuance by the Government of an order in response to a supplier’s quotation does not establish a contract. The order is an offer by the Government to the supplier to buy certain supplies or services upon specified terms and conditions. A contract is established when the supplier accepts the offer.
(b) When appropriate, the contracting officer may ask the supplier to indicate acceptance of an order by notification to the Government, preferably in writing, as defined at 2.101. In other circumstances, the supplier may indicate acceptance by furnishing the supplies or services ordered or by proceeding with the work to the point where substantial performance has occurred.
(c) If the Government issues an order resulting from a quotation, the Government may (by written notice to the supplier, at any time before acceptance occurs) withdraw, amend, or cancel its offer. (See 13.302-4 for procedures on termination or cancellation of purchase orders.)
The following provisions and clauses apply to this acquisition:

Note: The full text of a clause/provision may be accessed electronically at: Notice: Contractor performance may be evaluated in accordance with policy at FAR 42.1502.

Note: Contractor will be required to utilize Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) for electronic submission of payment requests ()

2. Information required by Provision for Evaluation above and references;

3. Quotes must also include completed representations and certifications in the provision 52.212-3 Alt. I. If the offeror has completed 52.212-3 Alt I in SAM.gov, include the appropriate certification for NAICS and size standard in this solicitation.

(C) Agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the responsible Contracting Officer. The Contractor must provide with the notification sufficient documentation to support the legally changed name.
(ii) If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (t)(2)(i) of this clause, or fails to perform the agreement at paragraph (t)(2)(i)(C) of this clause, and, in the absence of a properly executed novation or change-of-name agreement, the SAM information that shows the Contractor to be other than the Contractor indicated in the contract will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the “Suspension of Payment” paragraph of the electronic funds transfer (EFT) clause of this contract.
(3) The Contractor shall not change the name or address for EFT payments or manual payments, as appropriate, in the SAM record to reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims (s
ee FAR Subpart 32.8, Assignment of Claims). Assignees shall be separately registered in the SAM database.

(i) Any such clause is unenforceable against the Government.
(ii) Neither the Government nor any Government authorized end user shall be deemed to have agreed to such clause by virtue of it appearing in the EULA, TOS, or similar legal instrument or agreement. If the EULA, TOS, or similar legal instrument or agreement is invoked through an “I agree” click box or other comparable mechanism (e.g., “click-wrap” or “browse-wrap” agreements), execution does not bind the Government or any Government authorized end user to such clause.
(iii) Any such clause is deemed to be stricken from the EULA, TOS, or similar legal instrument or agreement.
(2) Paragraph (u)(1) of this clause does not apply to indemnification by the Government that is expressly authorized by statute and specifically authorized under applicable agency regulations and procedures.
(v) Incorporation by reference. The Contractor’s representations and certifications, including those completed electronically via the System for Award Management (SAM), are incorporated by reference into the contract.
