Non-reimbursable repairs are entirely the Contractor’s responsibility with no reimbursement from the Government. All parts, components, and consumables costing less than $50.00 each shall be the Contractor’s responsibility. The reimbursement process does not apply to the parts that the Contractor proposed to in support of the basic PM Service for this contract (i.e., monthly, bi-monthly, quarterly, and annual services). All replacement parts shall meet original manufacturer’s specifications.
7.3 REIMBURSABLE REPAIRS
Reimbursable repairs will be identified as single incident, not an accumulation of various repairs (bundling). If a repair exceeds the non-reimbursable repair, cost threshold established above and has been approved and verified by the CO or designee, it becomes a reimbursable repair.
Reimbursable repairs are reimbursable to the Contractor, once approved by the CO or designee, for the portion (shared liability) of the cost exceeding the non-reimbursable threshold of $50.00 (See paragraph 7.4 below).
Reimbursement of parts under this paragraph shall be charged and invoiced against the appropriate reimbursement Contract Line-Item Number (CLIN) dependent upon fiscal year purchase of such parts. Consumables, components, parts, and labor for non-emergency repair service or emergency repair service will be included in the parts and labor CLIN. The Contractor shall submit to the COR an itemized quote when replacing parts more than $50.00 each. The quote will include part number, manufacture name, and detailed costs for all parts. If the Contractor furnishes its own materials, the price to be paid for such materials shall not exceed the Contractor’s established catalog or market price. All other materials will be reimbursed on the Contractor’s actual cost.
Fee or profit cannot be paid on materials. All labor hours performed under a prime contract that meet the requirements of a labor category or categories of that prime contract are to be paid at a fixed rate set in the prime contract. Reimbursement for any repair costs shall be governed by the invoicing provisions in this document (see paragraph 7.5).
7.4 REPAIR SHARED LIABILITY EXAMPLE
A repair is identified and estimated by the Contractor to cost $1,200.00 for repair parts and materials. The repair required is the replacement of a pump. The defective pump was discovered during a scheduled PM inspection. The Contracting Officer and/or COR will verify and approve both the need for the repair and the $1,200.00 estimated cost of repair parts and materials. In this example, the Contractor will pay for the lubricant used during the inspection and the first $50.00 of the repair and the Government will pay the remaining $1,150.00.
a. Total estimated approved cost for repair parts and materials to complete repair:
$1,200.00.
b. Contractor’s shared liability amount to be subtracted (same amount as the non-reimbursable threshold): $50.00.
c. Total to be paid by the Government to the Contractor for the repair: $1,150.00.
The required completion date for reimbursable repairs shall be established when the CO approves the work, as mutually agreed upon by the CO or designee and the Contractor.
7.5 INVOICING
The Contractor shall invoice the Government for completed reimbursable repairs authorized, separately upon completion and acceptance of work. Invoicing shall be submitted against the appropriate reimbursement CLIN dependent upon fiscal year purchase of such parts. If the Contractor directly purchased parts or components, copies of receipts shall be attached. In general, a receipt shall be obtained from the business or supplier, and it shall show the date of purchase, place of purchase, part number, nomenclature, model number, and amount paid. Receipts shall be provided for any parts or materials for which the contractor’s costs exceed $50.00. Reimbursable repairs authorized and verified by the Contracting Officer or designee, may be invoiced separately upon completion and acceptance of work.
7.6 WARRANTIES
The Contractor shall contact installers or manufacturers, as appropriate, for work that is covered under a warranty and maintain records of warranty service. The Contractor shall avoid actions that would invalidate a warranty, unless authorized by the Contracting Officer or designee. If an installer or manufacturer fails to comply with the terms of a warranty, the Contractor shall immediately notify the Contracting Officer or designee.
7.7 QUALITY OF MATERIALS AND REPLACEMENT PARTS
Replacement components and materials shall be of similar or better quality than the components replaced, considering energy efficiency, operational characteristics, power quality, control and data acquisition, maintainability, and durability. The Contracting Officer or designee may require replacement of components with components from the same manufacturer to maintain consistency throughout the equipment. Materials and parts that are visible to building occupants shall be to building standard and maintain the same appearance as similar materials and parts in the occupied space.
