All the contractor’s labor hour prices must include expenses for overhead, General and Administrative (G&A) and profit. Thus no separate allowance for travel time, parking, overhead, G&A or profit will be applied when hourly services are ordered.

Offeror must submit offers for all locations in order to be considered for award. The contract will be awarded to the responsible offeror submitting the best offer in the aggregate for all locations. Offerors MUST quote prices for all four of the renewal options, in addition to the initial period, in order to be considered for award. Renewal options shall be priced using the wage determination contained in this solicitation. Upon exercising a renewal option, the contract price will be adjusted in accordance with FAR 52.222-43 Fair Labor Standards Act and Service Contract Labor Standards—Price Adjustment (Multiple Year and Option Contracts) (May 2014).

Note 1: Manual snow removal includes the use of snow blowers, shovels, etc and application of snow melt or sand for building entrances, steps, landing, sidewalks, plaza and parking areas is included in the basic monthly price. DO NOT include manual snow removal in the hourly line item prices for snow removal and hauling.

Note 2: Quote a per hour price for providing Above Standard Services that are in addition to the services specified herein as standard services. A laborer is a worker with responsibilities covered by the Department of Labor Wage Determination under the category of Laborer. Laborer work may include all miscellaneous jobs requested by the CO or their designee which will consist of, but not be limited to the following: 1) loading, unloading or moving of supplies and materials; 2) recurring set-up and breakdown of conference spaces; 3) miscellaneous tasks not included in the base contract services.

Note 3: Quote a price per hour for providing Above Standard Services when ordered that are in addition to the services specified herein for the standard services. Orders for above standard service may be placed orally when the amount of the order totals $2,500.00 or less or in the event of an emergency. All orders which exceed $2,500.00 must be placed or confirmed by issuance of a GSA Form 300, Order for Supplies or Services and will be paid by GSA Finance. The GSA Form 300 will describe the service to be provided and will establish, excluding emergencies as determined by the Contracting Officer (CO) or the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR), the maximum number of hours for which the contractor will be compensated. Orders of $2,500.00 or less may be processed using the Governmentwide commercial purchase card, which is the preferred method to purchase and to pay for micro purchases. Individual orders for above standard services involving more than forty (40) hours will only be issued with the assent of the contractor. This above standard services provision is intended to be used to satisfy the Government's short term non recurring needs for service. Should a continuing need for additional service arise, a contract modification will be negotiated pursuant to the "Changes Fixed Price" clause. Above standard services cannot be accomplished by diverting resources from work that is supposed to be accomplished.
