About this file

This document is a Determination and Findings regarding the inclusion of liquidated damages in a solicitation for the Department of the Air Force. The solicitation is for project FXSB 23-1031 to install electrical service at building B10571 at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Alaska. Liquidated damages for the first and last day of unexcusable delay are established at $692.84 per day, while liquidated damages for each additional day of delay are set at $450.71 per day. These rates were calculated based on estimated daily costs for civil engineering, contracting personnel, and a project engineer as provided by the 673rd Civil Engineering Squadron. The contracting officer determined that liquidated damages are reasonable and necessary to compensate the government for potential damages from untimely performance given the difficulty of accurately estimating such damages.

Determination to Incorporate Liquidated Damages

This Determination and Findings is based upon the requirements of FAR 11.501(a) & (b), 11.503(b) and 52.211-12.

The Findings are as follows:

DEPARTMENT OF THE AIR FORCE

673d Contracting Squadron/PKA

Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska 99506

FINDINGS

Inspector

A. Civil Engineering Cost for First and Last Day of Delay:

2. IAW FAR 11.503(b), the contract includes the liquidated damages clause 52.211-12. Liquidated damages are to be specified on each order.

4. IAW FAR 11.501(b), Liquidated damages are not punitive and are not negative performance incentives. Liquidated damages are used to compensate the Government for probable damages. Therefore, the liquidated damage rates used are a reasonable forecast of just compensation for the harm that is caused by untimely performance. The liquidated damage rates are determined as follows:

3. IAW FAR 11.501(a), the Contracting Officer has considered the potential impact on pricing, competition, and contract administration before using a liquidated damages clause. Timely performance is so important that the Government may reasonably expect to suffer damage if performance is delinquent, and the extent or amount of the damage would be difficult to estimate accurately or prove.

1. The 673 Civil Engineering Squadron has a requirement for FXSB 23-1031 Install Electrical Service B10571, JBER, AK 99506
