Brand Name Justification

DAFFARS 5352.201-9101 ACC OMBUDSMAN (JUL 2023)

An ombudsman has been appointed to hear and facilitate the resolution of concerns from offerors,

potential offerors, and others for this acquisition. When requested, the ombudsman will maintain strict

confidentiality as to the source of the concern. The existence of the ombudsman does not affect the

authority of the program manager, contracting officer, or source selection official. Further, the

ombudsman does not participate in the evaluation of proposals, the source selection process, or the

adjudication of protests or formal contract disputes. The ombudsman may refer the interested party to

another official who can resolve the concern.

(a) Before consulting with an ombudsman, interested parties must first address their concerns, issues,

disagreements, and/or recommendations to the contracting officer for resolution. Consulting an

ombudsman does not alter or postpone the timelines for any other processes (e.g., agency level

bid protests, GAO bid protests, requests for debriefings, employee-employer actions, contests of

OMB Circular A-76 competition performance decisions).

(b) If resolution cannot be made by the contracting officer, the interested party may contact the

ombudsman, [Insert names, addresses, telephone numbers, facsimile numbers, and e-mail

addresses of Center/MAJCOM/FLDCOM/DRU/DAFRCO ombudsman/ombudsmen]. Concerns,

issues, disagreements, and recommendations that cannot be resolved at the

further consideration to the Department of the Air Force ombudsman, Associate Deputy Assistant

Secretary (ADAS) (Contracting), SAF/AQC, 1060 Air Force Pentagon, Washington DC 20330-

1060, phone number (571) 256-2395, facsimile number (571) 256-2431.
