Description
Foreign excess personal property or FEPP offered under this IFB is an item of personal property that is offered for sale outside the territory of the United States and has been determined to be safe to sell with a DEMIL code A. This property is sold by the DoD is in “as-is, where-is” condition (See SBR Part 2, Art.2). This property has been determined to be excess to the requirements of the US DoD components, however, not all such property will be referred under this contract as Agency regulations and policies may first require (1) reutilization within their agency or to special programs; (2) transfer to other federal agencies; or (3) donation to specified eligible entities, before an item is eligible for sale to the general public. Agency’s overseas management of FEPP follows the “disposition code” guidance of 41 CFR section 102-36.240 which describes excess personal property as either “new” property, “usable” property, “repairable” property or “salvage” property. The FEPP offered under this IFB has been determined to be “new”, “useable” or “repairable’ under the GSA definitions. The FEPP property offered under this IFB would not be considered scrap, or salvage which is defined as property that has no value except for its basic material content. While DoD turn-in customers provide a supply condition code of A-H on all Disposal Turn-in Documents (DTIDs) for all property turned into the Agency, these codes are used in the DoD supply system as classifications for materiel in terms of readiness for issue and use, or to identify action underway to change the status of materiel. They do not directly correspond to the suitability of property being made available for reutilization, transfer, donation or sale. Agency personnel make an independent determination on whether the property should be classified as scrap because it has no value more than the item’s material content and/or whether an item is suitable for reutilization, transfer, donation or sale as FEPP. The quality of the property tendered under this contract will vary and it is being sold “as is where is” with no warranty as to its condition or suitability for its originally intended, or any other specific purpose. This is not a sale by lot. The Government guarantees to issue the Purchaser a minimum of 10,000 Disposal Turn-In Documents (DTIDs) of foreign excess personal property (FEPP) annually. (A DTID may be one item or a group of like items) The maximum amount of property issued annually will not exceed 750,000 DTIDs of foreign excess personal property (FEPP). Annually is defined as any continuous 12-month period of time during the contract performance period commencing with the beginning of contract performance commencing from the date of the first removal by the Purchaser. A list of previously issued DTIDs [SBLCDDS(1] will be issued upon request and will be published on Sam.gov. This list will consist of one previous year’s generation. The US does not guarantee that the DTIDs on the list are what will be seen in future issuances. The Purchaser is cautioned that prior to resale of the property acquired under this contract, they should become familiar with their customer and the purposes for which it is acquiring the property. The US export control regulations may apply to subsequent transactions of the property. The Purchaser should obtain a statement from the buyer, containing information similar to that contained in the US’s End-Use Certificate (EUC) and must check any prospective buyer to ensure the buyer is not on the Department of Commerce proscribed party list (entity and person) and prohibited country list; that the transfer will not violate 15 CFR Part 736 and issue a destination control statement in accordance with the EAR. Additional information on managing exports of CCL items can be found at the Bureau of Industry and Security website at https://www.bis.doc.gov. All property covered under the contract is being sold “as-is” and “where is”. No request for adjustment in price for any item or rescission of the sale will be considered. This is not a sale by sample and property issued under the terms of this contract may not be rejected by the Purchaser, unless an item falls outside the scope of the contract. The United States Government (US) is the sole arbiter of determining condition code and determining whether property is considered usable FEPP under its property regulations and thus eligible for referral under this contract. Purchaser’s opinion on whether the property can clear customs, sell or market, or the availability of customers for items have no bearing on whether the Government considers the property usable. No changes, modifications, or reductions of price will be applied. Under no circumstances is culling for the purpose of effecting partial or incremental removals authorized. Please read the attached IFB in it's entirety. A list of the previous year's DTIDs issued is attached.
