OVERVIEW-

United States Merchant Marine Academy is a

Federal Service Academy that educates and graduates licensed Merchant Marine officers of exemplary character who serve America's marine transportation and defense needs in peace and war. With 95 percent of the world's products transported over water, these leaders are vital to the effective operation of our merchant fleet for both commercial and military transport during war and peace.

USMMA Office of Health Services (OHS) is responsible for the overall management of the midshipmen medical care, dental care and midshipmen emergency services. OHS works to help midshipmen maintain all medical standards for

United States Coast Guard (USCG) Licensing and

United States Naval Commissioning requirements.

http://www.usmma.edu/academy-life/activitiesservic es/health-services#sthash.kLTKsCpA.dpuf

Located in Patten Hall, USMMA, OHS provides onsite medical and dental care for midshipmen at no charge.

When medical care needs rise above the scope of services that OHS provides onsite at USMMA, these higher level of care needs are provided by various healthcare providers located in the surrounding community who specialize in many specialty care needs. USMMA seeks a provider of

NET services for Midshipmen transportation needs to these offsite non-emergency services. NET is requested for outpatient hospital care, services from physicians, diagnostic devices, clinic services, pharmacy services, eye care, dental care and if a member is being discharged from a facility to USMMA.

SCOPE OF WORK -

The Contractor shall:

1. Operate the NET Program in accordance with all

Objectives shown above.

2. Provide pickups from & returns to USMMA on an as-needed basis from 6:00AM to 6:00PM Monday through Friday (USMMA Business Hours), and pickups from the local hospital emergency room only to USMMA outside USMMA Business Hours.

USMMA requests that the contractor give priority to USMMA Midshipman calls and provide reasonable response times that will not subject Midshipmen to being late for medical appointments and/or important classes.

3. Provide pre-scheduled calls for service.

Prescheduled calls for service must be responded to within 20 minutes or less. Responded to means from the time a request is made by USMMA to the contractor for transport to the time transport of

Midshipman begins. Pre-scheduled calls for service refer to calls for transportation by

USMMA to Contractor that are requested in advance using either a faxed list for services or reservations made using the Contractors reservation system as requested. A pre scheduled call for service using a faxed list or reservation system must be made 12 or more hours in advance of the required pick up time.

4. Transport Midshipmen in clean, well maintained vehicles that are able to accommodate Midshipmen using ambulatory assistance devices such as crutches, braces, casts or other items that restrict movement or otherwise easy seating inside the vehicle intended for use in transport.

5. In order to maximize travel efficiencies for the Midshipmen, the Contractor must be capable in most circumstances to provide multiple transports using one vehicle when 3-4 passengers are being picked up from the same location that have been scheduled in advance using a faxed or on line reservation process. In many calls for services, there may be up to 3-4 Midshipmen leaving USMMA at the same time for travel to separate points of unrelated service locations.

6. USMMA requests that in multiple transport situations, one charge for the most distant transport be accessed and any additional passengers are charged at a discounted rate equally.

7. Ensure there is no ride sharing with non-Midshipmen for non-medical related transportation.

8. Use (whenever reasonable and possible) the most direct transport from pick up to drop off location required to insure shortest time for transportation (Midshipmen are on tight academic

9. Have the ability to provide services during high alert weather incidents or provide 48 to 72 hours notice if unable to provide service.

10. Provide USMMA with a set fee structure, with no surcharges for inclement weather.

11. Confirm with a USMMA representative before leaving a transport pick up location; i.e., there shall be no assuming there is no one to transport if there is a problem finding the individual requiring transportation when picking up and returning a Midshipman to USMMA or when picking up at USMMA.

12.Ensure that drivers/providers of NET verify

Midshipman eligibility for transportation services before providing service. All Midshipmen being transported will have Midshipmen

Identification. Drivers must record Midshipman name (First, Last), Midshipman ID, time, date and destination at time of all pick-ups. This information must be provided on each invoice for cross reference purposes. No payments can be made without this information.

13. Ensure there are no direct charges to

Midshipmen, including no gratuities, for any transportation provided. All Transportation costs are billed to USMMA using established US

Government payment processes and are subject to review and approval by the Contract Officer

Representative (COR).

14. Provide a reservation system for OHS Staff to schedule transportation services by phone, email, web, and/or other effective methods (on line based system is preferred). Such reservation system must be accessible by Midshipmen by phone, email, web, and/or other effective methods outside USMMA Business Hours to schedule pickups from the local hospital emergency room back to the USMMA.

15. Handle all interactions with subcontracted providers, including contracting, negotiating rates, paying subcontracted providers, requiring adequate liability insurance, and auditing and monitoring providers to ensure their compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and to ensure their provision of safe and reliable services.

16. Provide the most appropriate and least costly transportation necessary. This may include pre-arranged medically necessary stretcher van services for services to be provided to an individual who cannot be transported in a taxi or wheelchair van and who does not need the medical services of an ambulance. These calls for service do not include emergency transport or any medical monitoring, medical aid, medical care or medical treatment during transport.

17. Designate a Contractor Point of Contact

(CPOC) who shall have day to day responsibility for supervising the performance and obligations of the Contractor. The selected CPOC will work closely with and will receive policy direction from the USMMA COR regarding appropriate use of

Government Funds. The contractor shall not change the designation of its CPOC without notifying

USMMA.

18. Have sufficient staff to ensure that required services are provided in accordance with this

Scope of Work and any contract resulting from it.

19. Establish and operate a business office within fifteen (15) miles of USMMA that includes the CPOC along with sufficient staff to operate the program, monitor subcontractors, and ensure quality services.

20. Notify the Contracting Officer Representative

(COR) of any incident or accident involving a

Midshipman during the provision of transportation services within 24 hours of the incident or accident. If an incident or accident involves physical injury, the COR must be notified within

USMMA STAFFING-

USMMA shall designate a USMMA employee to serve as the Program Monitor, or Contracting Officer

Representative (COR) who will oversee the

Contractor¿s performance and compliance with the terms and conditions of any contract resulting from this RFQ. The COR will report to a

Government Contracting Officer (CO). The CO has all final contract authority.

PAYMENT STRUCTURE-

Offerors providing responses to this RFQ will include a clearly structured fee for services based on distance for transport, using mileage as a parameter, percentage for any included gratuity per transport and any add on fees applicable to special transport needs, if any.

Exhibit A:

Is located on pages 8 through 10 of this RFQ and is provided as a guide for the typical calls for transportation services. This is a sampling. It provides a reference for the purposes of estimating costs and is not limited to these locations. USMMA recognizes that there may be calls for services that extend beyond the 10 mile radius referred to in the RFQ Objectives. The usage of mileage as a cost determination is required to assist in managing costs associated with more distant transport needs when they rarely occur. The average call for service volume on a monthly basis between all locations varies from 120 to 360 calls per month. This is an

Note: Executive Order (EO) 13706, Establishing Paid Sick Leave for Federal Contractors, applies to all contracts subject to the Service Contract Act for which the contract is awarded (and any solicitation was issued) on or after January 1, 2017. If this contract is covered by the EO, the contractor must provide employees with 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours they work, up to 56 hours of paid sick leave each year. Employees must be permitted to use paid sick leave for their own illness, injury or other health-related needs, including preventive care; to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is ill, injured, or has other health-related needs, including preventive care; or for reasons resulting from, or to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is the victim of, domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Additional information on contractor requirements and worker protections under the EO is available at www.dol.gov/whd/govcontracts.

ALL OCCUPATIONS LISTED ABOVE RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING BENEFITS:

HEALTH & WELFARE: $4.41 per hour or $176.40 per week or $764.40 per month

HEALTH & WELFARE EO 13706: $4.13 per hour, or $165.20 per week, or $715.87 per month*

*This rate is to be used only when compensating employees for performance on an SCA-covered contract also covered by EO 13706, Establishing Paid Sick Leave for Federal Contractors. A contractor may not receive credit toward its SCA obligations for any paid sick leave provided pursuant to EO 13706.

VACATION: 2 weeks paid vacation after 1 year of service with a contractor or successor; 3 weeks after 5 years, 4 weeks after 15 years, and 5 weeks after 25 years.

Length of service includes the whole span of continuous service with the present contractor or successor, wherever employed, and with the predecessor contractors in the performance of similar work at the same Federal facility. (Reg. 29 CFR 4.173)

HOLIDAYS: A minimum of eleven paid holidays per year: New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Jr's Birthday, Washington's Birthday, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veterans' Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day. A contractor may substitute for any of the named holidays another day off with pay in accordance with a plan communicated to the employees involved.)

(See 29 CFR 4.174)

THE OCCUPATIONS WHICH HAVE NUMBERED FOOTNOTES IN PARENTHESES RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING:

6923G218Q000013 WAGE DETERMINATION Page 20 of 22

1) COMPUTER EMPLOYEES: Under the SCA at section 8(b), this wage determination does not apply to any employee who individually qualifies as a bona fide executive, administrative, or professional employee as defined in 29 C.F.R. Part 541. Because most Computer System Analysts and Computer Programmers who are compensated at a rate not less than $27.63 (or on a salary or fee basis at a rate not less than $455 per week) an hour would likely qualify as exempt computer professionals, (29 C.F.R. 541.

400) wage rates may not be listed on this wage determination for all occupations within those job families. In addition, because this wage determination may not list a wage rate for some or all occupations within those job families if the survey data indicates that the prevailing wage rate for the occupation equals or exceeds $27.63 per hour conformances may be necessary for certain nonexempt employees. For example, if an individual employee is nonexempt but nevertheless performs duties within the scope of one of the Computer Systems Analyst or Computer Programmer occupations for which this wage determination does not specify an SCA wage rate, then the wage rate for that employee must be conformed in accordance with the conformance procedures described in the conformance note included on this wage determination.

Additionally, because job titles vary widely and change quickly in the computer industry, job titles are not determinative of the application of the computer professional exemption. Therefore, the exemption applies only to computer employees who satisfy the compensation requirements and whose primary duty consists of:

(1) The application of systems analysis techniques and procedures, including consulting with users, to determine hardware, software or system functional specifications;

(2) The design, development, documentation, analysis, creation, testing or modification of computer systems or programs, including prototypes, based on and related to user or system design specifications;

(3) The design, documentation, testing, creation or modification of computer programs related to machine operating systems; or

(4) A combination of the aforementioned duties, the performance of which requires the same level of skills. (29 C.F.R. 541.400).

2) AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS AND WEATHER OBSERVERS - NIGHT PAY & SUNDAY PAY: If you work at night as part of a regular tour of duty, you will earn a night differential and receive an additional 10% of basic pay for any hours worked between 6pm and 6am.

If you are a full-time employed (40 hours a week) and Sunday is part of your regularly scheduled workweek, you are paid at your rate of basic pay plus a Sunday premium of 25% of your basic rate for each hour of Sunday work which is not overtime (i.e. occasional work on Sunday outside the normal tour of duty is considered overtime work).

** HAZARDOUS PAY DIFFERENTIAL **

An 8 percent differential is applicable to employees employed in a position that represents a high degree of hazard when working with or in close proximity to ordnance, explosives, and incendiary materials. This includes work such as screening, blending, dying, mixing, and pressing of sensitive ordnance, explosives, and pyrotechnic compositions such as lead azide, black powder and photoflash powder.

All dry-house activities involving propellants or explosives. Demilitarization, modification, renovation, demolition, and maintenance operations on sensitive ordnance, explosives and incendiary materials. All operations involving re-grading and cleaning of artillery ranges.

A 4 percent differential is applicable to employees employed in a position that represents a low degree of hazard when working with, or in close proximity to ordnance, (or employees possibly adjacent to) explosives and incendiary materials

6923G218Q000013 WAGE DETERMINATION Page 21 of 22 which involves potential injury such as laceration of hands, face, or arms of the employee engaged in the operation, irritation of the skin, minor burns and the like;

minimal damage to immediate or adjacent work area or equipment being used. All operations involving, unloading, storage, and hauling of ordnance, explosive, and incendiary ordnance material other than small arms ammunition. These differentials are only applicable to work that has been specifically designated by the agency for ordnance, explosives, and incendiary material differential pay.

** UNIFORM ALLOWANCE **

If employees are required to wear uniforms in the performance of this contract (either by the terms of the Government contract, by the employer, by the state or local law, etc.), the cost of furnishing such uniforms and maintaining (by laundering or dry cleaning) such uniforms is an expense that may not be borne by an employee where such cost reduces the hourly rate below that required by the wage determination. The Department of Labor will accept payment in accordance with the following standards as compliance:

The contractor or subcontractor is required to furnish all employees with an adequate number of uniforms without cost or to reimburse employees for the actual cost of the uniforms. In addition, where uniform cleaning and maintenance is made the responsibility of the employee, all contractors and subcontractors subject to this wage determination shall (in the absence of a bona fide collective bargaining agreement providing for a different amount, or the furnishing of contrary affirmative proof as to the actual cost), reimburse all employees for such cleaning and maintenance at a rate of $3.35 per week (or $.67 cents per day). However, in those instances where the uniforms furnished are made of "wash and wear" materials, may be routinely washed and dried with other personal garments, and do not require any special treatment such as dry cleaning, daily washing, or commercial laundering in order to meet the cleanliness or appearance standards set by the terms of the Government contract, by the contractor, by law, or by the nature of the work, there is no requirement that employees be reimbursed for uniform maintenance costs.

** SERVICE CONTRACT ACT DIRECTORY OF OCCUPATIONS **

The duties of employees under job titles listed are those described in the "Service Contract Act Directory of Occupations", Fifth Edition (Revision 1), dated September 2015, unless otherwise indicated.

** REQUEST FOR AUTHORIZATION OF ADDITIONAL CLASSIFICATION AND WAGE RATE, Standard Form 1444 (SF-1444) **

The contracting officer shall require that any class of service employee which is not listed herein and which is to be employed under the contract (i.e., the work to be performed is not performed by any classification listed in the wage determination), be classified by the contractor so as to provide a reasonable relationship (i.e., appropriate level of skill comparison) between such unlisted classifications and the classifications listed in the wage determination (See 29 CFR 4.6(b)(2)(i)). Such conforming procedures shall be initiated by the contractor prior to the performance of contract work by such unlisted class(es) of employees (See 29 CFR 4.6(b)(2)(ii)). The Wage and Hour Division shall make a final determination of conformed classification, wage rate, and/or fringe benefits which shall be paid to all employees performing in the classification from the first day of work on which contract work is performed by them in the classification. Failure to pay such unlisted employees the compensation agreed upon by the interested parties and/or fully determined by the Wage and Hour Division retroactive to the date such class of employees commenced contract work shall be a violation of the Act

6923G218Q000013 WAGE DETERMINATION Page 22 of 22 and this contract. (See 29 CFR 4.6(b)(2)(v)). When multiple wage determinations are included in a contract, a separate SF-1444 should be prepared for each wage determination to which a class(es) is to be conformed.

The process for preparing a conformance request is as follows:

1) When preparing the bid, the contractor identifies the need for a conformed occupation(s) and computes a proposed rate(s).

2) After contract award, the contractor prepares a written report listing in order the proposed classification title(s), a Federal grade equivalency (FGE) for each proposed classification(s), job description(s), and rationale for proposed wage rate(s), including information regarding the agreement or disagreement of the authorized representative of the employees involved, or where there is no authorized representative, the employees themselves. This report should be submitted to the contracting officer no later than 30 days after such unlisted class(es) of employees performs any contract work.

3) The contracting officer reviews the proposed action and promptly submits a report of the action, together with the agency's recommendations and pertinent information including the position of the contractor and the employees, to the U.S.

Department of Labor, Wage and Hour Division, for review (See 29 CFR 4.6(b)(2)(ii)).

4) Within 30 days of receipt, the Wage and Hour Division approves, modifies, or disapproves the action via transmittal to the agency contracting officer, or notifies the contracting officer that additional time will be required to process the request.

5) The contracting officer transmits the Wage and Hour Division's decision to the contractor.

6) Each affected employee shall be furnished by the contractor with a written copy of such determination or it shall be posted as a part of the wage determination (See 29 CFR 4.6(b)(2)(iii)).

Information required by the Regulations must be submitted on SF-1444 or bond paper.

When preparing a conformance request, the "Service Contract Act Directory of Occupations" should be used to compare job definitions to ensure that duties requested are not performed by a classification already listed in the wage determination. Remember, it is not the job title, but the required tasks that determine whether a class is included in an established wage determination.

Conformances may not be used to artificially split, combine, or subdivide classifications listed in the wage determination (See 29 CFR 4.152(c)(1)).
