Performance Work Statement

Description of agreement. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), New Orleans District (MVN), intend to issue multiple Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPA) for material hauling services. A BPA is a simplified method of filling anticipated repetitive needs for supplies or services by establishing “charge accounts’’ with qualified sources of supply. The use of BPA’s is economical when 1) there is a wide variety of items in a broad class of supplies or services that are generally purchased, but the exact items, quantities, and delivery requirements are not known in advance and may vary considerably; 2) the use of this procedure would avoid the writing of numerous purchase orders; 3) there is no existing requirements contract for the same supply or service that the Contracting activity is required to use.

This BPA is for material hauling services for hauling and delivery of clay, dirt, sand, aggregate, or rock. The Contractor shall provide at least five tri-axle trucks and operator with a minimum 14 CY capacity to haul various material on an emergency and/or otherwise routine basis. The expected response time for mobilization is within 24-48 hours after receiving electronic or telephonic notification by a Contracting Officer assigned to MVN. Work shall be performed in many locations but cannot be established at this time, it is anticipated that hauling routes will cover the Southern Louisiana geographical area; mainly locations within USACE MVN area of responsibility/operation.

For the first line item (Material Hauling Service Distance), Contractor will only be paid the mileage from the loading site to the delivery point and not the return trip. Contractor will take the shortest route from loading to unloading points; request for alternative route must be communicated by Contractor and approved by COR prior to delivery. For hauling less than 2 miles (per direction), a minimum of 10 loads per truck per day is expected; USACE will communicate to the contractor if less than 50 loads will be needed daily and the number of trucks will be reduced accordingly. Additionally, USACE will not be penalized if 10 loads per truck per day is prohibitive due to weather, traffic, or otherwise unforeseen events. Government can request fewer trucks at any time.

1.1 The commencement date, days and number of hours the trucks will be delivering, as well as the completion date shall be established after the issuance of each “call” with the COR. The supplier’s work and responsibility shall include coordinating, planning, quality control, inspection, and maintaining proper records necessary to assure that the materials ordered meets the specifications of the Government’s “call” requirement.

1.2 Anticipated normal working hours and days, except as otherwise specified shall be Monday through Friday between 7 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. The supplier shall diligently pursue the work, except in the event or threat of inclement weather. Work will not be completed on Federal Holidays, unless approved in advance by the Contracting Officer. The ten (10) Federal Holidays observed are:

New Year’s Day (January 1st) Martin Luther King Jr. Birthday (3rd Monday in January)

Presidents’ Day (3rd Monday in February) Memorial Day (Last Monday in May)

Independence Day (July 4th) Labor Day (1st Monday in September)

Columbus Day (2nd Monday in October) Veterans Day (November 11th)

Thanksgiving (4th Thursday in November) Christmas Day (December 25th)

1.3 Supplier must ensure the materials are supplied on time and at the proper locations in accordance with applicable laws, regulations, codes, and directives. If applicable, the Corps will be responsible for obtaining the proper clearances, right-of-entries, and authorizations to deliver to sites that involve crossing private property.

1.4 The Corps will obtain any licenses or permits required to perform the duties of this contract.

The supplier shall comply with all current Federal, State and local laws and regulations and shall comply with any subsequent changes.

1.5 All work shall be performed in accordance with industry safety requirements and practices.

Any unsafe work and/or actions will be cause for immediate stoppage of work as ordered by any Corps employee. The Corps reserves the right to prohibit supplier employees from performing duties on Corps property based on repeated unsafe acts.

1.6 An accident constitutes an incident or act involving the supplier that may or may not have caused obvious damage to persons or property. All accidents shall be reported to the COR within 24 hours of the occurrence. All serious accidents (those resulting in death or injury requiring medical attention) shall be reported immediately.

1.7 Any item of value found on the site shall be turned into the COR.

1.8 No equipment shall be stored on the property without the advance permission of the COR.

The government shall not be held responsible for damage or theft that may be encountered on any equipment.

1.9 The supplier is responsible for ensuring that all work performed, and material delivered, including work performed by sub-suppliers, is in accordance with industry standards and the specifications of this agreement.

SPECIAL PROVISIONS

A. The BPA is not a contract. The Government is not obligated to place any orders, and the vendor is not obligated to accept any orders. Either party can cancel the BPA at any time. The BPA is not enforceable against either party. An enforceable contract exists only when the Government places a call against the BPA and the vendor accepts that call.

B. The existence of a BPA does not justify purchasing from only one source. Individual requirements may be competed. Additionally, authorized individuals placing orders under BPAs are responsible for ensuring that prices are reasonable. If, for a particular purchase greater than the micro-purchase threshold, there is an insufficient number of BPAs to ensure maximum practicable competition, the Contracting Officer shall 1) solicit quotations from other sources and make the purchase as appropriate; and

2) establish additional BPAs to facilitate future purchases if recurring requirements for the same or similar supplies or services seem likely, qualified sources are willing to accept BPAs, and it is otherwise practical to do so. Individuals authorized to make calls, which exceed the micro-purchase threshold, are responsible for obtaining and documenting competition as required by

FAR 13.303-5.

C. This BPA shall take effect on the date of award and continue for a period of five (5) years or a cumulative total of $7,500,000; whichever comes first.

D. Warranted Contracting Officers of the New Orleans Districts may issue calls against the BPAs.

I. Authority, Responsibilities and Restrictions.

A. In accordance with FAR 13.303-1(a), Contracting Officers are authorized to establish BPAs and shall ensure that the following agreements between the vendor and the Corps are reached:

2. A written record of each purchase is prepared and a receipt is created at the time of delivery for each individual call; and

3. The vendor agrees to provide a summary invoice/statement.

B. Authorized Callers. Only Contracting Officers of the New Orleans District may sign individual calls against these BPAs to place orders for more than $2,500.00 and up to $250,000 per call. Additional USACE MVN employees authorized to place calls will be identified upon award.

C. Responsibilities. Callers are responsible for providing the vendor with complete ordering information to ensure that proper completion of work, billing, and prompt payment occurs.

Callers should also ensure obligations and expenditures are kept within available funds.

D. Restrictions. BPAs are not to be used for purchases greater than the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT) unless they are issued in accordance with Subpart 13.5.

1. Individual BPA purchases will be for over $2,500 and shall not exceed the SAT unless they are issued in accordance with Subpart 13.5 in which case the limitation is $1,500,000.

Purchases that would normally be made as single orders shall not be split to avoid any order limitation delegated or authorized to the individual.

2. Purchases for $2,500.00 and less will be made using the Government Purchase Card, not the BPA.

II. Purchases Under BPA’s.

A. Price Reasonableness and Competition. A Warranted Contracting Officer shall obtain competition to the maximum extent practicable, or from at least three vendors as required by FAR 13.104 and 13.303-

B. Placing a Call.

1. Authorized callers may contact all BPA holders and request competitive quotes only after receiving approval from the Contracting Officer.

C. Purchase File Documentation.

1. Warranted Contracting Officers who place calls shall document the competition obtained. The documentation shall refer to the individual call number and be attached to the appropriate log sheet with the purchase request in the file. Contracting Officers may solicit from one source if the Contracting Officer determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available (e.g., urgency, industrial mobilization), and rationale shall be documented. (See FAR 13.106 1(b).)

2. Each order placed against an established BPA should be entered on a log sheet. Each Contracting office placing calls shall keep separate logs. Separate call sheet (logs) shall be maintained for each vendor with whom a BPA has been established. Whenever a call is placed against a BPA, the authorized caller shall record the call number and enter the call (in order by date placed) identifying all items ordered, purchase request number and amount, etc. Items will be identified by a description. All logs may be maintained electronically.

D. Receiving, Billing and Payment.

1. Prior to placing each call, a PR&C noting the BPA# shall be routed through CEFMS to the appropriate Contracting Division. The Contracting Division will obligate the funds in CEFMS and the requesting activity will complete the receiving report.

III. Reviews by the Contracting Officer.

e. Transactions are fully documented (i.e., detailed item descriptions, prices of items, complete names, dates, etc.); and

f. Receiving and payment procedures are being followed.

3. If a review discloses misuse of a BPA, the user's authority to make calls against the BPA may be terminated.

4. As a minimum, a checklist record of this review using the above criteria, is to be in each BPA file. The checklist shall also be signed and dated by the reviewer.

C. Records. BPA purchasing records shall be retained until 3 years after final payment as required by FAR 4.805(b)(3), except that records pertaining to any investigations, cases pending or in litigation (including protests), or similar matters shall be retained until resolved pursuant to FAR 4.805(b)(10).

1. Division of work. Since multiple suppliers are being selected to provide like services, individual purchase (calls) will be estimated using each suppliers pricing and hauling fees for the job/work assignment/location.

Note: Executive Order (EO) 13706 Establishing Paid Sick Leave for Federal

Contractors applies to all contracts subject to the Service Contract Act for which the contract is awarded (and any solicitation was issued) on or after January 1

2017. If this contract is covered by the EO the contractor must provide employees with 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours they work up to 56 hours of paid sick leave each year. Employees must be permitted to use paid sick leave for their own illness injury or other health-related needs including preventive care; to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is ill injured or has other health-related needs including preventive care; or for reasons resulting from or to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is the victim of domestic violence sexual assault or stalking. Additional information on contractor requirements and worker protections under the EO is available at www.dol.gov/whd/govcontracts.

ALL OCCUPATIONS LISTED ABOVE RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING BENEFITS:

HEALTH & WELFARE: $4.54 per hour up to 40 hours per week or $181.60 per week or

$786.93 per month

HEALTH & WELFARE EO 13706: $4.22 per hour up to 40 hours per week or $168.80 per week or $731.47 per month*

*This rate is to be used only when compensating employees for performance on an SCA-covered contract also covered by EO 13706 Establishing Paid Sick Leave for Federal

Contractors. A contractor may not receive credit toward its SCA obligations for any paid sick leave provided pursuant to EO 13706.

VACATION: 2 weeks paid vacation after 1 year of service with a contractor or successor 3 weeks after 5 years and 4 weeks after 15 years. Length of service includes the whole span of continuous service with the present contractor or successor wherever employed and with the predecessor contractors in the performance of similar work at the same Federal facility. (Reg. 29 CFR 4.173)

HOLIDAYS: A minimum of ten paid holidays per year: New Year's Day Martin Luther

King Jr.'s Birthday Washington's Birthday Memorial Day Independence Day

Labor Day Columbus Day Veterans' Day Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. (A contractor may substitute for any of the named holidays another day off with pay in accordance with a plan communicated to the employees involved.) (See 29 CFR 4.174)

THE OCCUPATIONS WHICH HAVE NUMBERED FOOTNOTES IN PARENTHESES RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING:

1) COMPUTER EMPLOYEES: Under the SCA at section 8(b) this wage determination does not apply to any employee who individually qualifies as a bona fide executive administrative or professional employee as defined in 29 C.F.R. Part 541. Because most Computer System Analysts and Computer Programmers who are compensated at a rate not less than $27.63 (or on a salary or fee basis at a rate not less than $455 per week) an hour would likely qualify as exempt computer professionals (29 C.F.R. 541.

400) wage rates may not be listed on this wage determination for all occupations within those job families. In addition because this wage determination may not list a wage rate for some or all occupations within those job families if the survey data indicates that the prevailing wage rate for the occupation equals or exceeds

$27.63 per hour conformances may be necessary for certain nonexempt employees. For example if an individual employee is nonexempt but nevertheless performs duties within the scope of one of the Computer Systems Analyst or Computer Programmer occupations for which this wage determination does not specify an SCA wage rate then the wage rate for that employee must be conformed in accordance with the conformance procedures described in the conformance note included on this wage determination.

Additionally because job titles vary widely and change quickly in the computer industry job titles are not determinative of the application of the computer professional exemption. Therefore the exemption applies only to computer employees who satisfy the compensation requirements and whose primary duty consists of:

(1) The application of systems analysis techniques and procedures including consulting with users to determine hardware software or system functional specifications;

(2) The design development documentation analysis creation testing or modification of computer systems or programs including prototypes based on and related to user or system design specifications;

(3) The design documentation testing creation or modification of computer programs related to machine operating systems; or

(4) A combination of the aforementioned duties the performance of which requires the same level of skills. (29 C.F.R. 541.400).

2) AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS AND WEATHER OBSERVERS - NIGHT PAY & SUNDAY PAY: If you work at night as part of a regular tour of duty you will earn a night differential and receive an additional 10% of basic pay for any hours worked between 6pm and 6am.

If you are a full-time employed (40 hours a week) and Sunday is part of your regularly scheduled workweek you are paid at your rate of basic pay plus a Sunday premium of 25% of your basic rate for each hour of Sunday work which is not overtime

(i.e. occasional work on Sunday outside the normal tour of duty is considered overtime work).

** HAZARDOUS PAY DIFFERENTIAL **

An 8 percent differential is applicable to employees employed in a position that represents a high degree of hazard when working with or in close proximity to ordnance explosives and incendiary materials. This includes work such as screening blending dying mixing and pressing of sensitive ordnance explosives and pyrotechnic compositions such as lead azide black powder and photoflash powder.

All dry-house activities involving propellants or explosives. Demilitarization modification renovation demolition and maintenance operations on sensitive ordnance…
