Price/Cost Schedule Structure, etc.)

Price/Cost Structure

In the Orlando VA’s previous EAP contract, there were initially 4200 employees covered. In this most recent count, there are 5800. As the pricing is based primarily on the number of covered employees, would the government add a clause to protect from significant future employee fluctuations?

We suggest a statement similar to: “At this time the Orlando VA does not anticipate that the number of employees will change significantly from the provided number of covered employees. However, in the event that the actual number of covered employees exceeds a 10% variance from the provided employee levels, either party may request an equitable adjustment to the contract price”.

For Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP), If there is a disagreement between both parties for any request for equitable adjustment, the FAR Clause 52.212-4 (d) Disputes in Section C of the solicitation and subsequent contract award apply.
