General Wage Decision Nos. will be provided in each task order.

1.1 EQUIPMENT OWNERSHIP AND OPERATING EXPENSE SCHEDULE

Note: Copies of each regional schedule may be obtained through the following Internet site:

http://www.publications.usace.army.mil/USACEPublications/EngineerPamphlets.aspx.

Currently the "Construction Equipment Ownership and Operating Expense Schedule" can be accessed on page 12-13 of 15 of the afore indicated URL.

Standard Form 1411 is no longer a current form. The Contracting Officer may require submission of cost or pricing data in the format indicated in Table 15-2 of FAR 15.408, specify an alternative format, or permit submission in the contractor’s format. Information other than cost or pricing data may be submitted in the contractor’s own format unless the use of a specific format is prescribed elsewhere in this contract.

(a) This clause does not apply to terminations. See paragraph: Basis for Settlement of Proposals below and FAR Part 49.

(b) Allowable cost for construction and marine plant and equipment in sound workable condition owned or controlled and furnished by a Contractor or subcontractor at any tier shall be based on actual cost data for each piece of equipment or groups of similar serial and series for which the Government can determine both ownership and operating costs from the Contractor's accounting records. When both ownership and operating costs cannot be determined for any piece of equipment or groups of similar serial or series of equipment from the Contractor's accounting records, costs for that equipment shall be based upon the applicable provisions of EP 1110-1-8, "Construction Equipment Ownership and Operating Expense Schedule," Region to be specified in each task order. Working conditions shall be considered to be average for determining equipment rates using the schedule unless specified otherwise by the Contracting Officer. For equipment not included in the schedule, rates for comparable pieces of equipment may be developed using the formula provided in the schedule.

For forward pricing, the Schedule in effect at the time of negotiations shall apply. For retrospective pricing, the Schedule in effect at the time the work was performed shall apply.

(c) Equipment rental costs are allowable, subject to the provisions of

FAR 31.105(d)(ii) and FAR 31.205-36. Rates for equipment rented from an organization under common control, lease-purchase arrangements, and http://www.publications.usace.army.mil/USACEPublications/EngineerPamphlets.aspx

SECTION 01 30 00.24 Page 5 sale-leaseback arrangements will be determined using the schedule, except that actual rates will be used for equipment leased from an organization under common control that has an established practice of leasing the same or similar equipment to unaffiliated lessees.

(d) When actual equipment costs are proposed and the total amount of the pricing action exceeds the small acquisition threshold (SAT), the contracting officer shall request the contractor to submit either certified cost or pricing data, or partial/limited data as appropriate.

The data shall be submitted on Standard Form 1411, Contract Pricing Proposal Cover Sheet.

1.2 CONTRACTOR SUPPLY AND USE OF ELECTRONIC SOFTWARE FOR PROCESSING

CONSTRUCTION WAGE RATE REQUIREMENTS STATUTE CERTIFIED LABOR PAYROLLS

(a) The Contractor is encouraged to use a commercially-available electronic system to process and submit certified payrolls electronically to the Government. The requirements for preparing, processing and providing certified labor payrolls are established by the Wage Rate Requirements statute.

(b) If the Contractor elects to use an electronic payroll processing system, then the Contractor shall be responsible for obtaining and providing for all access, licenses, and other services required to provide for receipt, processing, certifying, electronically transmitting to the Government, and storing weekly payrolls and other data required for the Contractor to comply with the Wage Rate Requirements statute. When the Contractor uses an electronic payroll system, the electronic payroll service shall be used by the Contractor to prepare, process, and maintain the relevant payrolls and basic records during all work under this construction contract and the electronic payroll service shall be capable of preserving these payrolls and related basic records for the required 3 years after contract completion. If the Contractor chooses to use an electronic payroll system, then the contractor shall obtain and provide electronic system access to the Government, as required to comply with the Wage Rate Requirements over the duration of this construction contract.

The access shall include electronic review access by the Government contract administration office to the electronic payroll processing system used by the contractor.

(c) The Contractor's provision and use of an electronic payroll processing system shall meet the following basic functional criteria:

(1) commercially available;

(2) compliant with appropriate Wage Rate Requirements statute payroll provisions in the FAR;

(3) able to accommodate the required numbers of employees and subcontractors planned to be employed under the contract;

(4) capable of producing electronic output of weekly payroll records that are capable of being uploaded into the Resident Management System (RMS);

(5) demonstrated security of data and data entry rights;

SECTION 01 30 00.24 Page 6

(6) ability to produce Contractor-certified electronic versions of weekly payroll data;

(7) ability to identify erroneous entries and track the data/time of all versions of the certified Wage Rate Requirements statute payrolls submitted to the government over the life of the contract;

(8) capable of generating a durable record copy, that is, a CD or DVD and PDF file record of data from the system database at end of the contract closeout. This durable record copy of data from the electronic Construction Wage Rate payroll processing system shall be provided to the Government during contract closeout.

(d) All Contractor-incurred costs related to the Contractor's provision and use of an electronic payroll processing service shall be included in the Contractor's price for the overall work under the contract. The costs for compliance with the Wage Rate Requirements statute by using electronic payroll processing services shall not be a separately bid or reimbursed item under this contract.

1.3 BASIS FOR SETTLEMENT OF PROPOSALS (MAR 2009)

Actual costs will be used to determine equipment cost for a settlement proposal submitted on the total cost basis under FAR 49.206-2(b). In evaluating a termination settlement proposal using the total cost basis, the following principles will be applied to determine allowable equipment costs:

(a) Actual costs for each piece of equipment, or groups of similar serial or series equipment, need not be available in the contractor's accounting records to determine total actual equipment costs.

(b) If equipment costs have been allocated to a contract using predetermined rates, those charges will be adjusted to actual costs.

(c) Recorded job costs adjusted for unallowable and unallocable expenses will be used to determine equipment operating expenses.

(d) Ownership costs (depreciation) will be determined using the contractor's depreciation schedule (subject to the provisions of FAR

31.205 11).

(e) License, taxes, storage and insurance costs are normally recovered as an indirect expense and unless the contractor charges these costs directly to contracts, they will be recovered through the indirect expense rate.

1.5 CONTRACTOR PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS

Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 36.201(Evaluation of Contractor Performance) requires evaluation of the construction contractor's performance throughout the contract period of performance.

The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) follows the procedures outlined in Engineering and Construction Bulletin 2014-13 to fulfill this FAR requirement. For construction contracts valued at or above $700,000.00, including all modifications, the USACE will evaluate Contractor's performance using the web-based Contractors Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS). After the USACE drafts an evaluation (interim or final), the Contractor will have the opportunity to access, review, comment and either concur or non-concur with the evaluation in the CPARS system for a period of 60 days. Access to the CPARS system requires either specific software called PKI certification (recommended method) or a username and password. The PKI certification is a Department of Defense recommendation and to provide security in electronic transactions. The certification software could cost approximately $110 - $125 per certificate per year and may be purchased from an External Certificate Authorities (ECA) vendor. Current information about the PKI certification process and contacting vendors can be found on the web site:

https://www.cpars.gov.
