(end of clause)

B-006 - AUTHORIZED USERS

Pursuant to FAR 16.504(a)(4)(vi), only authorized users may place Task Orders under the Basic Contract. In order to qualify as an authorized user, a duly warranted Contracting Officer (as that term is defined in FAR 2.1) in good standing must have an appropriate signed delegation of authority from the Department of State Contracting Officer. This Basic Contract is for use by Department of State, Bureau of Diplomatic Security only.

B-007 - RATE FOR INDEFINITE DELIVERY CONTRACTS (Time-and-Materials/Labor-Hour)

(a) The labor rates specified herein are fixed hourly rates which include the following: wages, indirect costs (including overhead, fringe benefits and general and administrative expenses), and profit.

(b) In accordance with FAR 52.232-7 "PAYMENTS UNDER TIME AND MATERIAL AND LABOR-HOUR CONTRACTS," the Contractor shall only voucher for the time of the personnel whose services are applied directly to the work called for in individual delivery orders and accepted by the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR). The Government shall pay the Contractor for the life of a delivery order at rates effective when the delivery order was issued, unless the delivery order is modified to incorporate rates adjusted pursuant to FAR 52.222-43 "FAIR LABOR STANDARDS ACT AND SERVICE CONTRACT ACT - PRICE ADJUSTMENT (MULTIPLE YEAR AND OPTION CONTRACTS)," or FAR 52.222-44 "FAIR LABOR STANDARDS ACT AND SERVICE CONTRACT ACT - PRICE ADJUSTMENT," as applicable.

B-008 - TRAVEL COSTS (Time-and-Materials/Labor-Hour)

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, the Contractor shall be reimbursed for its reasonable actual travel costs in accordance with its usual accounting practices consistent with FAR Subpart 31.2, specifically FAR 31.205-46. Travel must be directly related to and required for performance of this contract, and authorized in advance and in writing by the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR).

In no event shall costs associated with employee commuting be reimbursable as a direct cost under this contract.

(b) Travel costs shall not be burdened with any indirect costs unless specifically allowable in accordance with the Contractor's usual accounting practices consistent with FAR Subpart 31.2. In no event shall travel costs be burdened with fee/profit.

(c) The Contractor shall include a breakout of all authorized travel expenses as an attachment to his invoices. Administrative support (coordination of travel arrangements, etc.) will be the responsibility of the Contractor.

(d) Should any Contractor personnel be requested to perform in any area which has been determined by the Department of State to be a hazardous duty area, hazardous duty premium pay if and to the extent requested and allowed, will be payable at the same rate as would be given to Department of State direct-hire employees pursuant to Chapter 650 of the U.S. Department of State Standardized Regulations (Government Civilians, Foreign Areas)..

For the purposes of this clause, local travel means travel within a 50 mile radius of the Contractor employee's regular place of performance and does not include daily commuting or associated costs.

(f) For travel where use of a personal automobile has been specifically authorized by the COR, reimbursement shall be computed on the basis of actual miles traveled from starting point to destination. Other related miscellaneous expenses, such as tolls and parking fees, incurred in the performance of tasks authorized under this contract, will be reimbursed. Car rentals require advance approval by the COR and will be authorized only when consistent with good business practice. Allowable costs shall not exceed the actual cost of renting a compact automobile (a maximum of one for four Contractor personnel), unless extenuating circumstances (e.g., excess baggage) require other arrangements and subsequent COR approval is obtained.

(g) The Government will reimburse the Contractor for Contractor employee's travel time to or from other authorized work locations;

except that for labor categories which are exempt from the Fair Labor Standards Act (FSLA), a reimbursement will be allowed only for travel during the employee's regular working hours.
