USMS-0008 Productive/Non-Productive Language
Productive hours are defined as those hours ordered and to be paid by the Government to the Contractor for an equivalent number of actual labor hours worked, except when a condition described below applies. This contract does not prohibit the Contractor and/or subcontractor(s) from paying its employee for non-billable hours from overhead or other accounts.
1. Ordering Productive Hours Services under the resulting contract will be ordered by individual task orders, if applicable. If services are ordered under a resulting contract, each individual task order will include the component, location, Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) Labor category, and billing rate. The quantity of hours ordered, will be categorized as productive hours.
2. Productive hours DO NOT include:
2.1 Leave time (holiday, sick, vacation, administrative, disability or child care, leave without pay, jury duty, or military leave).
2.2 The time required for "qualification" training of new or substandard contractor employees; or "upgrade" training which is provided by the Contractor.
2.3 The time prior to the start of the workday where the operations of the Federal agency have been shut-down or curtailed due to unusually severe weather, other Acts of God, budgetary reasons, or other unforeseeable circumstances.
2.4 Special Holiday Time provided by Executive Order from the President of the United States.
3.Productive hours DO include:
3.1 he time required to attend training specifically ordered by the Government, including reasonable travel time as determined by the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR), Assistant Contracting Officer’s Representative (ACOR) or Quality Assurance Evaluator
(QAE).
3.2 The intermittent time or times, when Government operations are closed for the balance of a work day that has already commenced.
The closing of operations during these periods is usually related to concerns regarding the safety of employees. In these rare instances, the contractor may bill for the balance of the scheduled workday(s) with the specific written authorization of the COR, ACOR or QAE.
4. Time Spent Traveling.
The COR, ACOR or QAE shall grant approval of all travel time before the Contractor employee travels. The travel time to attend training, meetings, conferences, etc. specifically ordered by the Government shall be considered Productive Hours if:
4.1 The individual is required to travel during regular working hours;
4.2 An individual is required to drive a vehicle or perform other work while traveling;
15M10323QA4700031/0001 Page 9 of 30
4.3 An individual is required to travel as a passenger on a one-day assignment away from the official duty station;
4.4 An individual is required to travel as a passenger on an overnight assignment away from the official duty station during hours on non-workdays that correspond to the employee's regular working hours; or
4.5 When an individual travels directly from home to a temporary duty location outside the limits of a 50 mile radius of his or her official duty station, the time the employee would have spent in normal home to work travel shall be deducted from productive hours of work as specified in paragraphs (4.2) and (4.3) of this section.
Example: The COR, ACOR, or QAE requests an individual who lives in Washington, DC, with a duty station in Crystal City, VA, to attend an eight (8) hour training session in Richmond, VA. The individual’s normal commute time is one (1) hour from DC to Crystal City. It takes the individual a total of four (4) hours to go to and from the training site in Richmond, VA. The Contractor must deduct two (2) hours from the 12 hour work day. Eight (8) hours of training plus four (4) hours of travel time equals a 12 hour workday. The contractor can only invoice the Government for 10 productive hours worked. The vendor must deduct the individual’s normal two (2) hour commute time from the 12 hour workday.
Further, the Contractor must, at all times, maintain an adequate workforce for the uninterrupted performance of all tasks defined within this SOW when the Government facility is not closed for the reasons indicated above. When hiring personnel, the Contractor shall keep in mind that the stability and continuity of the workforce are essential.
