Schedule, and the Contractor agrees to use its best efforts to perform the work specified in the

Schedule and all obligations under this contract within such ceiling price.

In accordance with 52.232-7(e), Ceiling price, the Government will not be obligated to pay the

Contractor any amount in excess of the ceiling price in the Schedule, and the Contractor shall not be obligated to continue performance if to do so would exceed the ceiling price set forth in the Schedule, unless and until the Contracting

Officer notifies the Contractor in writing that the ceiling price has been increased and specifies in the notice a revised ceiling that shall constitute the ceiling price for performance under this contract.

Interested vendors are required to provide their fully burden hourly rate for each labor category.

This information will be used for evaluation purposes only. The contract will include a ceiling price that the contractor exceeds at its own risk. See the Price Schedule for the ceiling amounts.

7. Our firm consists of two owners. Is each owner able to complete tasks under multiple labor categories?

Yes.

8. What is the repercussion if the contractor can't get a tenant or landlord to agree to relocate?

The decision to relocate is not voluntary. They must be relocated as part of the Settlement. All relocations must follow the Uniform Relocation

Assistance and Real Property Acquisition for

Federal and Federally Assisted Programs (Uniform

Act) - 49 CFR Part 24 (up to date as of

10/11/2023).

14. Will the real estate broker/agent writing up the offer get paid with a standard 3% commission?

No.

15. Is the contractor permitted to refer their company, and provide real estate and mortgage services to any of the landlords and tenants if they decide to purchase another home?

No.

16. It is stated that the land survey will need

20 days of field summary. Is that per 1 survey or for the entirety of the year's orders of land survey?

It is estimated there will be approximately 20 days of field surveying and mapping for the entire year. This will be over multiple survey requests. The number of hours of survey time needed will vary based on the size, complexity, and others factors based on the Program needs.

17. How would a vendor factor the pricing for land survey since it can be charged per transaction/sq. ft. instead of per hour? For example, 1 acre is $200- $500, 5 acres is

$1000-$2500.

Surveys are typically time and materials, or per task.

18. On the price sheet it indicated that the price per hour included the materials, I don¿t think there will be many materials used for this kind of service. Is there a list of materials that are acceptable for this contract?

We used a time and materials approach so non-labor costs can be reimbursed. In accordance with 16.601(a), direct materials means those materials that enter directly into the end product, or that are used or consumed directly in connection with the furnishing of the end product or service.

19. What Labor Categories from the price schedule require certifications or licenses?
