SUBPART 47.2 – CONTRACTS FOR TRANSPORTATION OR FOR TRANSPORTATION-RELATED SERVICES

47.207-5(90) BPA for fresh fruit and vegetables.

Use 52.247-9020, Advance Notice of Late, Short or Non-Shipment of Supplies, in BPAs for fresh fruits and vegetables (FF&V).

47.207-5 (91) Utilization of transportation assets in Korea.

Insert the clause at 52.247-9042, Wartime Utilization of Contract Vehicles (Contingency Contract) (Republic of Korea) in DLA Energy solicitations and contracts for locations in Korea where transportation assets are utilized in the performance of the contract.

SUBPART 47.3 – TRANSPORTATION IN SUPPLY CONTRACTS

(Revised December 23, 2011 through PROCLTR 2012-16)

47.303 Standard Delivery Terms and Contract Clauses.

47.303-6 Free on Board (f.o.b.) Destination.

47.303-6(c) Free on Board (f.o.b.) Destination clause.

Insert the clause at 52.247-9016, Free on Board (F.O.B.) Destination Contractor Transshipment, in solicitations and awards when solicited on an F.O.B. Destination basis with Inspection and Acceptance at Origin. Insert FAR 52.247-48 with this clause.

47.303-10(90) Shipments Direct to Port Terminals for Export clause.

Use 52.247-9019, Shipments Direct to Port Terminals for Export, in solicitations and awards involving shipment of subsistence items to port terminals for export (not applicable to brand name resale or FF&V).

47.304-4 Shipments originating outside CONUS.

Use 52.247-9024, F.O.B. Origin by Non-CONUS or Non-Canadian Offerors for Delivery to Consignees Within CONUS or Canada, in large purchase whenever offers are invited on a F.O.B. origin basis for CONUS deliveries and it is anticipated that foreign offers (other than Canadian) will be received. If offers are invited on both F.O.B. origin (A) and F.O.B. destination (B) basis, immediately following the title the buyer will insert the words “applicable to f.o.b. origin bids/offers (A) only”. This will facilitate evaluation and expedite the award process by eliminating the necessity of securing foreign land transportation rates as well as ocean rates to CONUS or Canada.

47.304-4(91) Provision for offers on an F.O.B. origin or F.O.B. Port of Loading Basis.

Use 52.247-9025, F.O.B. Origin by Non-CONUS or Non-Canadian Offerors for Delivery to Consignees Outside CONUS or Canada, this provision in solicitations inviting offers on an F.O.B. origin or F.O.B. Port of Loading Basis, for supplies to be delivered to consignees located outside CONUS or Canada. Buyers will add applicable CLINs and overseas destination in paragraph (a) of this provision. Note: This provision should be used for any overseas distribution (including APO and FPO) except for FMS shipments that are treated as domestic.

47.305-1 Solicitation requirements.

(c)(90) Compliance with International Plant and Protection Committee (IPPC) Guidelines Involving Wood Packaging Material (WPM). This policy implements DOD policy developed in response to international implementation of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization protocol on International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures (ISPM) 15, “Guidelines for Regulating Wood Packaging Materials in International Trade.” ISPM 15 is designed to block movement of pests that can destroy forests from one nation to another. DOD shipments inside and outside of the United States must meet ISPM 15 whenever wood packaging material (WPM), as defined in 52.247-9012, is used to ship DOD cargo and/or is acquired by DOD. If the DOD policy is not followed, improperly marked shipments are likely to become frustrated cargo, be destroyed at the port, or require repacking at the port of debarkation, causing increased cost and time delays to DOD.

(c)(91) Contract clause. Insert the clause at 52.247-9012 in all solicitations and contracts for supplies or services. The clause shall also be used in acquisitions conducted using FAR Part 12.

47.305-2(b)(90)

The Contracting Officer may insert the provision at 52.247-9026, Evaluation of Offers Invited for Both F.O.B. Origin and F.O.B. Destination, in solicitations for indefinite delivery contracts where offers are requested for both F.O.B. Origin and F.O.B. Destination and separate prices are not solicited for different quantity increments. Use ALT I when separate prices are solicited for different quantity increments.

47.305-3 F.O.B. origin solicitations.

(90) When the solicitation includes the requirement for minimum size of shipments or guaranteed maximum shipping weights (and dimensions, if applicable) and an award is made f.o.b. origin, insert the clause at 52.247-9000, Guaranteed maximum shipping weights or dimensions, in solicitations and contracts (see 14.408-1(96)).

(91) Solicitation Provision (Port handling and ocean costs in bid evaluation). Port handling and ocean charges available at time of issuance of solicitation shall be published in solicitations for the acquisition of supplies for overseas shipment. The provision set forth at 52.247-9001, advising that these charges are tentative and not necessarily those that will be used in the evaluation, shall also be included in the solicitation, just below any charges published. This provision will preclude the need for extension of opening dates or cancellation of solicitations and will still permit award to that offeror who is, in fact, low at time of bid opening as a result of any change in charges after issuance of the solicitation.

(92) Use 52.247-9015, Loading Capabilities for Bulk Shipments, use in all acquisitions when bulk shipments of packaged petroleum products will be made.

(93) The Contracting Officer may use the provision at 52.247-9027, Evaluation of Offers for Quantity Increments, in solicitations for indefinite delivery contracts when separate prices are solicited for different quantity increments. F.O.B. Origin offers will be evaluated based on the estimated shipping weight and cube if 52.247-9027 (c)(1)(i)(d) is checked. Weighted values reflect the Government’s estimate of relative frequency of future orders within each quantity increment.

47.305-3(94) Perishable foodstuffs clause in a BPA.

Insert the clause at 52.247-9017, Perishable Foodstuff Transportation, in blanket purchase agreements (BPA) for perishable foodstuffs. 52.247-9017 is to be used only with the DLA Troop Support subsistence supply chain.

47.305-3 F.O.B. origin solicitations. (DEVIATION)

(a)(4)(ii) DLA Energy is authorized to use provisions 5452.247-9F12, Offers of Multiple Crude Oils (NOV 89) (DEVIATION) and 5452.247-9F13, Evaluation of F.O.B. Origin and Destination offers (APR 90) (DEVIATION) in lieu of FAR provision 52.247-46 when purchasing crude oil for the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) program.

47.305-4 F.O.B. destination solicitations.

(a) Automated Business Systems Modernization(BSM) simplified acquisitions shall use the following clauses:

Overseas and Navy ship direct vendor delivery (DVD) shall use the clause at 52.247-9006.

CONUS DVD shall use the provision at 52.247-9007.

Foreign Military Sales shall use the clauses at 52.247-9008 or provision 52.247-9009 as applicable.

Shipments to depots shall use the provision at 52.247-9010.

47.305-4(90)

Shipments to ports and air terminals

As needed, use 52.247-9014, Evaluation of Offers via Export Aerial Ports, for supplies destined overseas via air freight.

(e) When needed to supplement FAR 52.247-51, use 52.247-9013, F.O.B. Origin and/or F.O.B. Port(s) of Loading (Destination) in Offer Evaluation.

47.305-6(i)(90)

Insert 52.247-9021 in solicitations when award may result in an f.o.b. origin contract. 52.247-9021, F.O.B. Origin Contract for Supplies Originating Outside the United States, should be used with 52.247-52, Clearance and Documentation Requirements-Shipments to DoD Air or Water Terminal Transshipment Points (APR 1984). For partial set-asides, the provision is only applicable to the unrestricted portion.

47.305-7(b)(90) Quantity analysis, direct delivery, and reduction of crosshauling and backhauling.

15.304(c)(90) contains a requirement to include a transportation evaluation factor in integrated logistics management arrangements where proposals are likely to include contractor arranged transportation outside the continental United States.

47.305-8 (90) Vendor Shipment Module.

(a) General Information.

(1) The Defense Logistics Agency’s (DLA’s) Vendor Shipment Module (VSM), formerly known as the Distribution Planning and Management System, is a distribution and transportation system that enhances DLA’s ability to plan and manage distribution. It is an information technology (IT) system that provides in-transit visibility (ITV), current shipping addresses, and may reduce transportation costs. For shipments of materiel that DLA buys from suppliers, VSM provides ITV to consignees, consolidation and containerization points (CCPs), air and water ports, and various Government supply and transportation information systems.

(2) VSM has the capability to organically arrange vendor shipments with Government managed carriers under integrated IT functionality. Use of VSM by vendors reduces frustrated freight at the CCPs, and air and water ports; and minimizes delays in vendors obtaining shipping instructions. VSM automatically prepares shipping labels in accordance with MIL-STD-129P, Bills of Lading, Packing Lists and other shipping documentation that the supplier can download and print.

(b) Policy.

(1) VSM is of primary benefit in the following situations:

(i) DLA administered contracts where the ultimate destination is a location outside of the United States, e.g.,

(A) OCONUS Customer Direct (CD)

(B) Defense Depots located overseas

For these shipments, the vendors can obtain shipping instructions and shipping labels through VSM without having to contact the DLA transportation office.

(ii) CONUS CD shipments: Although the vendor may not need shipping instructions, the vendor can obtain the required shipping labels via VSM.

(iii) Long term contracts which include CD support: Because of the benefits of VSM for CD shipments, especially OCONUS, Acquisition Specialists can consider either requiring VSM use by the vendor, or strongly encourage it.

For F.O.B. Origin contracts administered by DLA, VSM will make the transportation arrangements using government rates and carriers. In these circumstances do not use clauses which require the vendors to pre pay and add transportation charges (e.g., FAR 52.247-65, F.O.B. Origin, Prepaid Freight – Small Package Shipments). Also, ensure that “T” is not used in the transportation charges reimbursable code in DPACS. Otherwise, invoices for transportation changes will be paid by DFAS.

For contracts administered by DCMA, vendors must still contact the DCMA Transportation office in lieu of using VSM. On a case-by-case basis, there may be circumstances where DCMA will permit use of VSM on DCMA administered contracts. Obtain agreement from DCMA prior to award when allowing a vendor to use VSM on a DCMA administered contract.

Although the shipping label is not mandated for DLA Direct shipments, a shipping label is still required. Vendors now have the option of using VSM to generate the military shipping label.

(c) Prescription.

(1) The purpose of the clause is to encourage use of VSM by vendors as described in 47.305-8(a) and (b) above; the clause does not make VSM mandatory. Therefore, it is recommended that the clause be inserted in solicitations and contracts as a normal practice, unless the Contracting Officer knows in advance that VSM is not suitable for a particular acquisition. In addition, the clause should not be used in the following circumstances:

(i) DCMA administered (except as authorized on a case-by-case basis)

(ii) Pharmaceuticals

(iii) Medical – Customer pick-up only

(iv) Arms, ammunition & explosives (AA&E)

(v) Controlled substances and syringes

(vi) Tailored Vendor Relationships (TVR)

(vii) Contracts for Service, except shipments of Government Furnished Equipment (GFE)/Government Furnished Material (GFM)

(2) Transportation Office notification/requirement.

Contracts that are administered under the above-mentioned exceptions at (c)(1)(i thru vi) may contain the statement: “Contact the Transportation Office at the Administration Office specified in block 7.”

A) For DLA administered contracts, vendors must contact the Supply Chain Transportation office Helpdesk at (800) 456-5507.

B) For contracts administered by DCMA, vendors must contact the DCMA Transportation Office listed on the award document in lieu of using VSM.
