If requested, an independent review of an Agency Protest decision is available through appeal to the Principal Assistant Responsible for Contracting (PARC)/Senior Contracting Official (SCO) in accordance with FAR 33.103. A protest to C 3 is a "PROTEST TO THE AGENCY," within the meaning of FAR 33.103. The C 3 Agency Protest Program is intended to encourage interested parties to seek resolution of their concerns within C 3, rather than filing a protest with the Government Accountability Office (GAO) or other external forum. After an interested party files an Agency Protest with the Contracting Officer and while that protest is pending, the protestor agrees not to file a protest with the GAO or other external forum. If a protest is filed with an external forum on the same solicitation as the Agency Protest, the Agency Protest will be dismissed. (b) An interested party may file a written protest to the Contracting Officer under the C 3 Agency Protest program for contract solicitations issued by C 3. Such Agency Protests are limited to objections to any of the following: (1) A solicitation or other request by an agency for offers for a contract for the procurement of property or services. (2) The cancellation of the solicitation or other request. (3) An award or proposed award of the contract. (4) A termination or cancellation of an award of the contract, if the written objection contains an allegation that the termination or cancellation is based in whole or in part on improprieties concerning the award of the contract. (c) An Executive-Level Agency protest may be filed with the Contracting Officer designated in paragraph (f) of this provision for resolution of protests. (d) For the purpose of filing a C 3 Agency Protest, an interested party means an actual or prospective bidder or offeror whose direct economic interest would be affected by the award of a contract or by the failure to award a contract. (e) An Agency Protest must include the protester's name, address and telephone number, including fax number or e-mail address; the solicitation or contract number, identity of the contracting activity and the contracting officer's name; a detailed statement of all legal and factual grounds for protest (mere disagreement with the decisions of Contracting Officers does not constitute grounds for protest), including copies of all relevant documents; a request for a ruling; and, a request for relief. All protests must be signed by an authorized representative of the protester and must state it is an Agency Protest for decision by the Contracting Officer. (f) C 3 Agency Protests, as defined in FAR 33.101, may be served on the Contracting Officer (addressed as follows) by obtaining written and dated acknowledgment of receipt from TSgt Rosita Goodrum at rosita.goodrum@afghan.swa.army.mil. In accordance with FAR 13.004 -- Legal Effect of Quotations the following information is provided in regards to quotations. A 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. When appropriate, the contracting officer may ask the supplier to indicate acceptance of an order by notification to the Government, preferably in writing. 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. 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. INVOICES-BLOCK 18b of SF 1449: Submit original invoice to the following address, or email them to: KAF RCC INVOICES KAF Regional Contracting Center APO AE 09355 E-Mail- KAFRCCINVOICES@afghan.swa.army.mil Invoice must include the following information: Contract Number from Block #2 Delivery Order Number From Block #4 if applicable Your name and address Invoice Date Invoice Number Description of items delivered must match the CLIN'S Terms for any discount for prompt payment offered Name, title and phone number of company point of contact to notify in the case of a defective invoice Electronic Funds Transfer Information Company Name Beneficiary (Name on Account) Company Address Bank Name Routing Number Account Number
