No. Question Answer 1 Under the price cost schedule, it lists

Quantity and Unit. Example; 0001 – Quantity/5.00 and Unit/Job. Does this mean under the quantity that 5.00 refers to five generators, and we price the cost to complete the service described for only five generators regardless if there may be ten units (generators) and not five? Are we required to bid the total cost to provide the service listed under 0001 for all ten generators or five each time 2?

In completing the price cost schedule, the unit price should represent the cost to perform that task on “all 13” generators identif ied in Attachment 1, Appendix A, one time.

This is NOT an “option” contract. This is an Indefinite-Delivery, Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract. Each line item represents a specific task that may be performed under the contract. The “quantity” represents how many times the Government estimates that task will be ordered for the life of the contract, on all 13 generators.

The “amount” represents the “quantity” times the “unit price”.

2 There will be different requirements between the Base year and the additional option to extend four-year optional years.

Due to the manufacturer's maintenance schedule requirements, there will be more or less material and labor costs for each of the five years. How would you suggest we bid this without the additional 4-year option price/cost schedules available to quote the different labor and material costs for these years?

Please refer to the answer to question 1 whereas this is NOT an “option” contract.

Each line item represents a specific task to be performed on all 13 generators. For “example”, a task order may be issued to perform the tasks associated with line items 0001, 0003 and 0009. Those tasks will be performed on all 13 generators. At a later date, an order may be issued to perform the tasks associated with line items 0004-0008, on all 13 generators. Only the line items identif ied on each order will be required during the specific performance period identif ied on that order.

The basic IDIQ contract only sets the prices and the contractual terms and conditions. It does not order or pay for any work to be performed. Work will be ordered and paid for by the issuance of task orders.
