1  OVERVIEW

Recently a new environmental rule was enacted intending to minimize the impact of a spill in a marine environment. This new rule adds new demands to marine refuelers; lubricant and bilge pump service providers. Accordingly, a separate contract has become necessary to address these new rules and requirements, most immediately needed to address the mobile marine refueling requirements of Washington State Ferries (WSF), which this contract will address.

1.1  SCOPE

The purpose of this effort is to establish a Marine Refueling, Lubricant & Bilge Pump Services umbrella contract. Besides conforming to all relevant rules, regulations, laws and industry standard best practices, the state expects Contractor to play a leadership role in maximizing efficiencies and economies in performing these services. To that end, the state endeavors to partner with the most conscientious marine refueling, lubricant and bilge pump service providers who are committed and capable of optimizing the state’s marine refueling, lubricant and bilge pump service needs. The first contract only targeted mobile marine refueling services.

Be advised, that the state may (at a later date) add other services which may include but is not limited to:

§  Barge marine refueling services

§  Fixed facility marine refueling services

§  Lubricant delivery services in a marine environment

§  Bilge Pump maintenance services in a marine environment

In so doing, terms and conditions specific to these services may be incorporated into this contract.

1.2  CONTRACT DESIGNATION

This contract has been designated “MANDATORY” use for state agencies requiring marine refueling; lubricant, or bilge pump services and “CONVEINIENCE” use for all other authorize contract users.

1.3  TERM OF CONTRACT

The initial term of this contract is 2-years from date of award with the option to extend for additional term(s) or portions thereof. Extension for each additional term shall be offered at the sole discretion of the State and are subject to written mutual agreement. The total contract term, including the initial term and all subsequent extensions, shall not exceed 10-years unless an emergency exists and/or special circumstances require a partial term extension. The State reserves the right to extend the Contractor, solely determined by the State.

1.4  ESTIMATED USAGE – Mobile marine refueling services

Based on past and/or projected usage, it is estimated that the mobile marine refueling purchases will approximate 11,800,000 gallons of fuel annually. This is solely an estimate and the state will not guarantee volume commitments. Orders will be placed only on an as needed basis.

1.5  PURCHASERS

Marine refueling services are intended to address the unique requirements of WSF but other authorized purchasers may utilize this contract to satisfy their marine refueling and maintenance service needs. Authorized purchasers will be those agencies requiring marine refueling, lubricant, or bilge pump services, and is available to higher education, and political subdivisions who are members of the State of Washington Purchasing Cooperative (WSPC). Contractor(s) shall not process contract orders from unauthorized purchasers. A list of WSPC members can be found via the web at: https://fortress.wa.gov/ga/apps/coop/Default.aspx . The state accepts no responsibility for payment by WSPC members.

1.6  COST MITIGATION STRATEGIES

In accordance with sec. 608 of ESSB 6091, the State reserves the right to employ various cost mitigation strategies (i.e. hedging) in acquiring fuel via our Contractor. These strategies may include but are not limited to futures contracts, swap transactions, option contracts, costless collars, and long-term storage at no additional costs to our Contractor. The cost mitigation strategies are intended to reduce overall fuel costs and offer our customers an improved level of budgetary certainty when procuring fuel. The Office of State Procurement in consultation with The State Treasurer and the State Investment Board are to explore and implement these cost mitigation strategies as feasible. These financial instruments are to be offered to our customers on an “elect to use” basis and be in compliance with our customers’ bylaws and/or regulations. Customers must receive written approval from the State Contract Administrator before utilizing these financial instruments via this contract and the state accepts no responsibility for payment for the financial services provided to contract users. Customers who elect to utilize these cost mitigation strategies may be charged a fee or other funding mechanisms may be applied to cover the cost of deployment of these cost mitigation strategies.

1.7  Contractor QUALIFICATIONS

The state reserves the right to request supporting documentation, conduct a site visit and or schedule a meeting to seek clarification to validate claims of qualification compliance. Additionally, the Contractor may be required to provide copies of their fuel supply contract(s) or letter from their supplier(s) (on supplier’s letterhead) showing they have sufficient sources and volumes of fuel available to satisfactorily perform in accordance to contract terms and conditions. The Contractor shall have the capability of fulfilling contract terms within 5-business days of award notification.

1.8  ORDER QUANTITIES

There will be no minimum order quantities as the service fee is expected to cover costs normally associated to a typical delivery (other than fuel costs) irregardless of the amount of fuel delivered.

2  MARINE REFUELING SERVICES

2.1  BULK MARINE REFUELING SERVICES

Marine refueling services are intended to address the unique requirements of WSF but other authorized purchasers may utilize this contract to satisfy their marine refueling and maintenance service needs.
