Section B - Supplies or Services/Prices Section B - Schedule

B.1 GENERAL:

This Contract will be a single award Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contract with Task Orders issued on a firm fixed price (FFP) basis. This IDIQ Contract is for the provision of multidisciplinary architect and engineering services for the William J. Hughes Technical Center (WJHTC) for Advanced Aerospace, at the Atlantic City Airport, NJ 08405. The period of performance for this Contract is five (5) years, inclusive of five (5) one-year ordering periods.

The Contractor must furnish all labor, tools, materials, equipment, and supplies necessary to accomplish the Architect and Engineering (A/E) projects for alteration, extension, conversion, or modernization of existing facilities, as well as new construction, as specified on individual Task Orders issued hereunder, in accordance with the terms, conditions, and provisions as set forth herein. A/E services ordered will be negotiated on a project-by-project basis.

All terms and conditions contained in this document will be applicable to all Task Orders issued under this Contract, unless otherwise specified by an individual Task Order.

The Contractor, acting in an independent capacity and not as an agent of the Government, must provide personnel, facilities, and other services necessary to accomplish tasks described in Section C, Statement of Work, under this contract as authorized by the Contracting Officer (CO) through the issuance of task order(s). Performance of work must take place only after the issuance of a valid written task order and Notice to Proceed (NTP).

B.2 MINIMUM ORDERING OBLIGATION AND MAXIMUM CEILING:

Minimum Ordering Obligation: $ 2,500.00 Minimum Order Quantity: One (1) Task Order

The minimum ordering obligation under this Contract is $2,500.00. The Government has no obligation beyond the minimum ordering obligation specified above to order additional services or issue additional orders to the Contractor beyond the minimum ordering obligation specified. A Task Order valued at $2,500.00 will be issued shortly after the basic IDIQ is awarded for a pre-performance conference.

The Ceiling for this Contract is $13,000,000.00.

Task Orders can be either fully or incrementally funded in accordance with AMS clause 3.3.1-37, ‘Limitation on Government’s Obligation’. The aggregate value of all Task Orders placed against this Contract will not exceed the total Contract ceiling amount identified above.

B.3 Billing Rates - See Attachment 4, Cost/Pricing Spreadsheet The Contractor’s fixed, fully burdened hourly labor rates will be utilized to price individual Task Orders issued against this Contract. The schedule for this Contract, by labor category and ordering period, is provided at Section J, Attachment 4, ‘Pricing Worksheet’.

The fixed, fully burdened hourly labor rates by labor category and by ordering period are set forth in Section J, Attachment 4, ‘Pricing Worksheet’ and apply to all labor hours, regardless of whether the labor hours are expended by the Contractor or by one of its subcontractors or teaming partners. These rates represent the rates that the Government will accept during the life of this Contract and will be used during negotiations for all Task Orders issued under this Contract.

The fixed, fully burdened hourly labor rate includes wages, profit, indirect costs (i.e. overhead, fringe, etc.) and any year-over-year escalation rate (i.e. the annual percentage change in the cost or price of services). Indirect costs include those costs associated with employees over and above gross compensation or payroll (e.g. payroll taxes and social security deductions, workers’ compensation required by the federal government or the state of performance, health insurance, paid time off, company training, vacation, and sick leave, pension contributions, and other benefits).

Only those labor categories contained in the Statement of Work, Section J Attachment 1 shall be charged to this Contract. The descriptions and education and experience requirements for these labor categories are provided in the Statement of Work.

The Contractor must not substitute or add personnel except in accordance with this clause.

(2) Substitution of Personnel.

(a) For the first 180 days of contract performance, the Contractor must not substitute personnel for the individuals whose resumes or other personal qualification were submitted with its offer and that were determined by the Contracting Officer to be acceptable at the time of contract award, unless such substitutions are because of an individual's sudden illness, death, or termination of employment. In any of these events, the Contractor must promptly notify the Contracting Officer and propose substitute personnel as required by paragraph (4) below.

(b) If an individual becomes, for whatever reason, unavailable for work under the contract for a continuous period exceeding thirty (30) working days, or is expected to devote substantially less effort to the planned work, the Contractor must propose a substitute personnel as required by paragraph (4) below.

(3) Addition of Personnel. If an FAA requirement will increase the specified level of effort for a designated labor category, but not the overall level of effort of the contract, then the Contractor must notify the Contracting Officer to add personnel to the designated labor category. The Contractor must request added personnel as required by paragraph (4) below.

(4) Request and Review. The Contractor must submit the request for substitute or added personnel in writing to the Contracting Officer at least 14 days (if a security clearance must be obtained, at least 30 days) before the proposed date of substitution or addition. The Contractor's request must provide a detailed explanation of the circumstances causing the proposed substitution or addition, a complete resume for the proposed substitute or added personnel, and any additional information required by the Contracting Officer. Proposed substitutes and added personnel must have qualifications equal to or higher than those stated in the contract for the labor category. The Contracting Officer will evaluate the Contractor's request and promptly notify the Contractor of the decision to accept or reject the qualifications of the substitute or added personnel.

(5) The Contracting Officer may terminate the contract if the Contractor has not made suitable, timely, and reasonably forthcoming replacement of personnel who have been reassigned or terminated or otherwise become unavailable to work under the contract or the resulting loss of productive effort would impair the successful completion of the contract. Alternatively, if the Contracting Officer finds the Contractor to be at fault for the condition, then the Contracting Officer may equitably adjust (downward) the contract price or fixed fee to compensate the Government for any delay, loss or damage as a result of the Contractor's action.

3.3.1-40 Electronic Submission of Payment Requests (INTERIM December 2025)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause—

(1) “Contract financing” is a contractual authorization for payments to a contractor prior to acceptance of products or services by FAA.

(2) “Payment request” means a bill, voucher, invoice, or request for contract financing payment or invoice payment with associated supporting documentation. The payment request must comply with the requirements identified in this clause and the applicable Payment clause and invoicing requirements included in this contract.

(3) “Electronic form” means an automated system transmitting information electronically according to the accepted electronic data transmission methods and formats identified in paragraph (c) of this clause. Facsimile, email, and scanned documents are not acceptable electronic forms for submission of payment requests.

(4) “Invoice payment” means a Government disbursement of monies to a contractor under a contract or other authorization for supplies or services accepted by the Government. This includes payments for partial deliveries that have been accepted by the Government, final payments under T&M and labor-hour contracts, and final cost or fee payments where amounts owed have been settled between the Government and the contractor.

(b) Electronic payment requests. Except as provided in paragraph (f) of this clause, the Contractor must submit payment requests in electronic form. Purchases paid with a Government purchase card are considered to be an electronic transaction for purposes of this rule, and therefore no additional electronic invoice submission is required.

(c) The Federal Aviation Administration utilizes the Delphi eInvoicing web-portal for processing invoices.

Contractors submitting invoices are required to submit invoices via the Delphi eInvoicing web portal which is accessed and authenticated via www.login.gov

(d) In order to receive payment and in accordance with prompt payment standards, the Contractor must submit a proper invoice. All invoices submitted as attachments in the Delphi eInvoicing web-portal must contain the following:

(9) The following statement: “The Contractor certifies that, by submitting this invoice to the FAA, the supplies and/or services billed have been shipped, rendered, or delivered in accordance with instructions issued by the ordering officer; that they are reflected in the quantities and/or period of performance stated on the invoice; and that such supplies and/or services conform to the quantity and quality requirements specified in the applicable contract, order, or blanket purchase agreement.

(10) The following statement: “Pursuant to Executive Order 14173, Ending Illegal Discrimination And Restoring Merit-Based Opportunity, the Contractor certifies that it is in compliance with the Equal Protection principles of the Constitution and all applicable Federal anti-discrimination laws, and acknowledges that such compliance is material to the Government’s payment decision under the False Claims Act (31 U.S.C. § 3729(b)(4)). The Contractor also affirms that it does not operate any diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives that are inconsistent with the Equal Protection principles of the Constitution and the non-discrimination requirements of Federal law, as interpreted by the Supreme Court in Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard, 600 U.S. 181 (2023).”

Note: the statement in item (10) in the preceding list is only required for invoices submitted to receive payment for contract performance occurring after this AMS clause 3.3.1-40 Electronic Submission of Payment Requests (INTERIM December 2025) is included in the contract.

If the contract includes allowances for travel, all invoices that include charges pertaining to travel expenses must catalog a breakdown of reimbursable expenses with the appropriate receipts to substantiate the travel expenses.

(e) Payment system registration. Each person accessing the Delphi eInvoicing web-portal will be required to have a unique user Delphi eInvoicing ID and password and be credentialed through login.gov.

(1) Electronic authentication. See www.login.gov for instructions. Click on the following link for instructions on establishing a login.gov account: https://login.gov/help/creatingan-account/how-do-i-create-an-account-with-logingov/.

(2) To create a login.gov account, the user will need a valid email address and a working phone number. The user will create a password and then login.gov will reply with an email confirming the email address.

(3) DELPHI registration instructions. New users should request access to Delphi eInvoicing by sending an email to 9-AMC-FAA-iSupplier@faa.gov. Once access is granted, users should navigate to http://einvoice.esc.gov to activate the account. Users are required to log in every 45 days to keep it active.

(4) Training on DELPHI. To facilitate use of DELPHI, comprehensive user information is available at http://einvoice.esc.gov

(5) Account Management. Contractors must contact the DELPHI Help Desk when their firm’s points of contact will no longer be submitting invoices so they can be removed from the system. Instructions for contacting the DELPHI Help D can be found at http://einvoice.esc.gov

(f) Waivers: If the Contractor does not believe electronic invoicing can be used if they are awarded this contract, the Contractor must respond accordingly to AMS clause 3.3.1-41 Electronic Invoicing-Representation. Waiver requests must be approved by the FAA and DOT and will be processed expeditiously upon contract award. If the waiver request is not approved, the Contractor must use electronic invoicing consistent with this clause. If the waiver request is approved, conversion to electronic invoicing at a later date may be required. While the waiver is in effect, the current invoicing process must be used per AMS Guidance T3.3.1A.14 and the terms of the contract. The decision regarding a waiver request is not subject to AMS clause 3.9.1-1 Contract Disputes.

G.4 Accounting and Appropriation Data Accounting and appropriation data will be set forth on individual task order(s) issued hereunder.

G.5 Interpretation or Modification No oral statement of any person, and no written statement of anyone other than the CO or his/her authorized representative must modify or otherwise effect the terms or meaning of the schedule or specifications. All requests for interpretation or modification must be made in writing to the CO.

G.6 TASK/DELIVERY ORDER PROCESSING

Only the CO has the authority to submit a Request for Proposal (RFP) to the Contractor. Task Orders will be negotiated under the terms of this contract, using the negotiated contract fixed fully burdened hourly rates. Total hours per discipline and labor mix will be negotiated at the Task Order level. For each Task Order requirement, the CO will request an RFP with the SOW for the specific task. Each RFP will define what is required to evaluate. At a minimum the Contractor must submit the following below with each proposal:

a. Professional qualifications necessary for satisfactory performance of the required services.

b. Description of the proposed team composition for the task order, identifying scope to be conducted by each participating firm.

c. Confirmation of capacity to accomplish the project in the required time.

d. Potential of other qualifying elements. The Government may request a schedule for certain projects.

e. Pricing Proposal

The firm has 10 calendar days following receipt of the RFP to provide a proposal unless additional time is approved by the CO. Upon conclusion of negotiations, a funded FFP Task Order will be issued by the CO and performance will commence only upon issuance of NTP.

G.7 Task Order Closeout It is the intention of the FAA to perform closeout procedures on an individual task order basis. The Contractor agrees to perform those internal functions necessary to support this process in a timely manner.

G.8 OBSERVANCE OF LEGAL HOLIDAYS AND EXCUSED ABSENCE

Section H - Special Contract Requirements Clause List

3.1.9-1 ELECTRONIC COMMERCE AND SIGNATURE (JUL 2020)

(a) The Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-SIGN) establishes a legal equivalence between:

(1) Contracts written on paper and contracts in electronic form;

(2) Pen-and-ink signatures and electronic signatures; and

(3) Other legally-required written records and the same information in electronic form.

(b) With the submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges and accepts the utilization of electronic commerce as part of the requirements of this solicitation and the resultant contract.

(c) Certain documents may need to be provided or maintained in original form, such as large-scale drawings impractical to convert to electronic format or a document with a raised seal signifying authenticity. This clause does not change or affect any other requirements that a document must be in paper format to satisfy legal requirements such as for certain real estate transactions.

(d) The use of electronic signature technology is authorized under this solicitation and the resulting contract.

(e) Contractors must not digitally sign any documents with software that uses the Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA- 1). All digitally signed documents and contracts sent to the FAA must use a SHA-256 or higher hash algorithm. This is based on the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Policy Statement on Hash Functions dated August 5, 2015. Further guidance on the use of SHA-256 is in NIST Special Publication (SP) 800-57 Part 1, section

5.6.2 as amended and SP 800-131A, Revision 1 dated November 6, 2015. Additional guidance on the use of SHA-3 is in NIST SP 800-185 as amended.

(f) Contractors do not have to update documents previously digitally signed using SHA-1 hash algorithms unless the document requires updating. The FAA and contractors may continue to use SHA-1 for the following applications:

Verifying old digital signatures and time stamps, generating and verifying hash-based message authentication codes (HMACs), key derivation functions (KDFs), and random bit/number generation.

(a) In performance of this contract, the contractor and any of its subcontractors, may need access to and use various data and information in the possession of the Government.This data and information may have been obtained under conditions which restrict the Government's right to use and disclose this data and information or which may be adverse to the interests of the Government or other parties if it is disseminated or used in a capacity other than in performance of this contract. Therefore, the contractor and its subcontractors agree to abide by any restrictive use conditions on such data and not to: (1) knowingly disclose such data and information to others without written authorization from the Contracting Officer, unless it is already publically available; or (2) use for any purpose other than the performance of this contract any data or information which bears a restrictive marking or legend which the contractor has gained access to through the performance of this contract, or information that should be marked according to FAA Order 1600.75 "Protecting Sensitive Unclassified Information (SUI)". For the sole purpose of this clause, "information" means any communication or representation of knowledge such as facts, data, or opinions in any medium or form, including textual, numerical, graphic, cartographic, narrative or visual form.

(b) In the event the work required to be performed under this contract requires access to proprietary data and information of other companies, the contractor must obtain agreement from such other companies for such use unless such data are provided or made available to the contractor by the Government. Two copies of such company-to-company agreements must be furnished promptly to the Contracting Officer for information only. These agreements must prescribe the scope of authorized use and disclosure of the proprietary data and information as well as any other terms and conditions to be agreed upon between the parties thereto. It is agreed by the contractor that any such data or information, whether obtained by the contractor pursuant to the aforesaid agreement or from the Government, must be protected from unauthorized use by or unauthorized disclosure to any individual, corporation, or organization so long as it remains proprietary.

(c) The contractor agrees to conduct formal training to make employees aware of the requirement to maintain confidentiality of data and information as required above. The contractor must obtain from each employee in connection with this contract a signed Non-Disclosure Agreement. This agreement must provide that the employee will not, during employment or anytime thereafter, disclose or use for current or future benefit of any party any of the data (to include any form of Sensitive Unclassified Information (SUI) described in FAA Order 1600.75) or information not publically available received in connection with the work under the contract.

(d) The contractor agrees to hold the Government harmless and indemnify the Government as to any cost/loss resulting from the unauthorized use or disclosure of third party data or software by the contractor, its employees, subcontractors, or agents.

(e) The contractor agrees to include the substance of this clause in all subcontracts awarded under this contract. The Contracting Officer will consider case-by-case exceptions to this requirement for individual subcontracts in the event that: (1) the contractor considers this clause to be inappropriate and unnecessary in the case of a particular subcontract; (2) the contractor provides a written statement affirming absolute unwillingness of a subcontractor to perform, absent some relief from the substance of this prohibition and the reason why; (3) use of an alternate subcontract source would unreasonably detract from the quality of effort; and (4) the contractor provides the Contracting Officer timely written advance notice of these and any other extenuating circumstances.

(f) Except as the Contracting Officer specifically authorizes in writing, upon completion of all work under this contract, the contractor must return all such data and information described above obtained from the Government, including all copies, modifications, adaptations, or combinations thereof, to the Contracting Officer. Data obtained from another company must be disposed of in accordance with the contractor's agreement with that company, or if the agreement makes no provision for disposition, must be returned to that company. The contractor must further certify in writing to the CO that all copies, modifications, adaptations, or combinations of such data or information which cannot reasonably be returned to the Contracting Officer (or to the appropriate company), have been deleted from the contractor's (and any subcontractor's) records and destroyed. The FAA reserves the right to audit the deletion. The FAA must provide notice of the audit 10 calendar days prior to the audit.

(g) These restrictions do not limit the contractor's (or subcontractor's) right to use and disclose any data and information obtained from another source without restriction.
