1. FACL / FDUL BREAKOUT

2. TRAINING ISSUES Incorporate more contract training into NWCG FDUL and FACL training courses. Need to do the certification and recertification program for COTRs and the refresher for FDUL, FACL. (Has not been offered for two years.) Develop a cadre of qualified instructors, in each geographic areas, in agreement the Contracting Officer. Provide uniform training for inspections by FACL and FDUL.

3. REQUIREMENTS LSC, in addition to existing prerequisites, should be required to be an FDUL. or FDUL training should be required to be an LSC. Clarify requirements for national shower/food COR qualifications, addressing multi-agency issues.

4. CONTRACT ISSUES Ensure that it is known that additional potable water trucks (other than the initial one with shower unit) are not part of the national contract. It no longer will (or should be) offered as an optional piece of equipment. Resolve lack of readily available technical support for shower and food contracts. (CO wants a technical support “group” funded with FTE, assigned and available year round for shower and food contracts “full time position”.)

5. Share information about noncompliance of contractors with other contract administration personnel so that they know what to look out for and know when problems are resolved. Contractors are required to have past performance appraisals on hand. Current year. How to address changes for national food contract? Currently goes to Alice Forbes, we suggest that Alice delegate to a technical group / specialist. Or thru the new Logistics Committee.

6. FORMS Provide a standard inspection form/checklist for FACL and FDUL; send suggestions to Mary Fields. Supplemental form 296B is not needed. Use supplemental pre-use (separate) form and final inspection form for payment or a 3- part (triplicate) form. Send form input to Rich Rusk, national Logistics committee chair.

7. OTHER ITEMS Have Cache System look into changing “hot food cans” to new style with “zip lids”. Invite NWCG representatives to the Logistics Workshop.
