B.3 Option for Increased Quantity – Separately Priced Line Items

The Government may require delivery of the option items listed in Table B.2.1 in incremental quantities, at the award price, up to the maximum quantity specified for each item. Each option line item may be exercised multiple times until the total required units are delivered. This flexible option allows for adjustments, reductions, or increases in quantity up to the maximum within the ordering period. The total units delivered will not exceed the maximums specified for each line item over the 5-year performance period, unless changed by a formal contract modification.

The funding amount for each instance of exercising an option CLIN can be calculated using the following formula: number of units multiplied by the price per unit for the product(s) being ordered.

The Contracting Officer may exercise the option by written notice to the Contractor in accordance with FAR 52.217-7. The Contractor will be notified in writing, by letter or email, at least one (1) business day before the option to acquire more product is exercised. After that written notification, a funded, unilateral modification will be issued to exercise the option and order the doses. Option quantities are not considered ordered by the Government until a funded, unilateral modification is issued to formally exercise the option.

The Government may exercise option CLIN 0002 for some or all of the awarded items at one time or may obtain the products over time. The Government’s unilateral right to exercise option CLIN 0002 is within its sole discretion.

B.4 Increased Quantity Limitations

The Government has taken a precautionary maximum quantity approach due to the unpredictability of national events. In reference to FAR 52.217-6 Option for Increased Quantity and FAR 52.217-7 Option for Increased Quantity-Separately Priced Line Items, found in Section C, the total allowable increased quantity shall not exceed 20% of the total contract value.
