PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

C.1. General. The purpose of this contract is to provide a full range of environmental and related services to the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and its customers. The environmental services generally consist of environmental compliance, environmental restoration, environmental conservation (to include ecosystem restoration), and pollution prevention.

The Contractor shall furnish all materials, equipment, supplies, personnel, and all other services required to perform the environmental services outlined in this statement of work and as specifically identified in individual task orders.

The services required by this contract will be performed for the USACE and its customers. Work will be performed predominantly in the states of North Carolina and Virginia, but may also include South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama and Mississippi. However, work may also be performed elsewhere in the United States and its territories at the specific request of the USACE or one of its customers in accordance with ER 5-1-10 (Corps-Wide Areas of Work Responsibility). The Contractor may be required to perform tasks on-site or at their own facilities.

Task orders may use Scopes Of Work (SOW). A SOW structures all aspects of an acquisition around the purpose of the work to be performed and does not dictate how the work is to be accomplished. It is written to ensure that Contractors are given the freedom to determine how to best meet the United States Government’s performance objectives and provides for payment only when the results meet or exceed these objectives. It maximizes Contractor control of work processes and allows for innovation in approaching various work requirements. A SOW emphasizes performance that can be contractually defined so that the results of the Contractor’s effort can be measured in terms of technical and quality achievement, schedule progress, or cost performance. The goal of Performance-Based Acquisition (PBA) is to:

Save money by reducing contract costs through elimination of unnecessary effort, allowing for innovation by the Contractor, and also by reducing Government surveillance.

Enable the Government to shift its emphasis from processes to outputs.

Hold Contractors accountable for the end results.

Ensure that Contractors are given the freedom to determine how to meet the Government’s performance objectives.

As part of its submission, the Contractor shall provide the estimated total cost (if any) incurred to comply with this reporting requirement. Reporting period shall be the period of performance not to exceed 12 months ending 30 September of each government fiscal year and must be reported by 31 October of each calendar year.

C.4 Government Furnished Information: Specific Government furnished information for each item of work will be described in the task orders. In general, the information will consist of applicable maps (to include GIS), information gathered during previous investigations (e.g., results from environmental compliance audits and surveys, geologic logs from wells or borings, results from any previously conducted soil and groundwater sampling and chemical analyses, etc.), available hydrogeologic information, etc..

C.5 Task Orders:

a. As the needs of the USACE are defined, the KO will notify the Contractor of a need through the issuance of a Request for Proposal (RFP) Letter. A Scope of Work attached to the RFP Letter will provide the Contractor with a description of the services to be provided for the prospective task order. A copy of the wage determination will also be furnished from the area where the work will be performed. The Contractor shall then prepare his proposal for accomplishing the services by preparing and submitting sufficient documentation (including identifying all subcontractors and associated costs) to ensure that the Contractor has provided sufficient planning to accomplish the required task. The proposal provided by the Contractor shall provide a detailed breakdown of the costs, that shall include level of effort (by labor category listed in the Schedule, Section B), identify all subcontractors and their associated costs, and account for any required travel or special equipment or supplies. Cost quotes shall be broken down into distinct equipment costs and installation costs in terms of man-hours, dollars, and skills. In cases where the Contractor intends to hire a discipline to perform work, and the rate for this discipline has not been established under Schedule B of the contract, the rate will be negotiated. The type of discipline required will determine the rate value to be applied. It is recommended that this rate be negotiated before hiring of the discipline takes place. Hiring before a rate has been negotiated will not justify fair and reasonable cost. The proposal will be used to establish the Contractor’s capability to perform the work and as a basis for negotiating the cost of the work. The timeline regarding receipt of the Contractor’s proposal will be identified in each RFP Letter. Upon receipt of the Contractor’s proposal the USACE will review the proposal documents for adequacy and completeness. The USACE will then negotiate the proposed effort with the Contractor, the firm fixed-price cost for performing the work, and the time period for performing the work.

b. In addition to the unit prices specified in the Schedule, Section B, out-of-town travel expenses, which have been negotiated as part of the task order, will be reimbursed. Cost for lodging, meals, and incidental expenses will be in accordance with per diem rates for travel set forth in the Government’s Joint Travel Regulations.

c. Equipment and Special supplies (Other Direct Costs), when required for special tasks, will also be reimbursed under this contract. The requirement and cost for equipment usage and special supplies will be negotiated on an individual task order basis and must be approved as part of each task order. Note: Specialized equipment and supplies are those above and beyond what is typically required for performance of a task.

d. Work will only be ordered through the issuance of individual task orders. All task orders issued will be for the services specified therein and will be in accordance with the fixed rates established in Section B of the Schedule. The cost of work that is not covered by the fixed rates in this contract will be negotiated on an individual task order basis.

e. The Contracting Officer’s Representative named in the task order will be responsible for the administration of task orders placed hereunder. The Contracting Officer’s Representative does not have authority to modify any provision of this contract. Any request for deviation from the terms of this contract or any task orders issued hereunder must be submitted to the Contracting Officer for contractual action.

f. The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer’s Representative upon completion of each individual task order. The Contractor shall give advance notice of the date the work will be fully completed and ready for final inspection.

g. A DD Form 1155 will be issued for each task order. Each task order will include:

(1) Date of task order; contract number; task order number; task order price and/or performance data; accounting and appropriation data; and any other pertinent information. Delivery or performance will be specified in each task order issued hereunder.

(2) The specific Scope of Work related to the work covered by the task order and any other special technical requirements, instructions, or clearances.

C.6 Technical Requirements:

a. Safety and Health: This subsection describes, in general terms, the minimum Contractor safety, health, and emergency response requirements associated with this contract. The Contractor shall have an ongoing Safety and Health Program meeting the requirements of the OSHA standard, 29 CFR 1910.20, 29 CFR 1910.21, and 29

CFR 1910.120.
