B.1 IDENTIFICATION OF SUPPLIES/SERVICES
This procurement is for support services to satisfy the Terminal and Technical Operations Second Level Maintenance Support (TnT) requirements consisting of management, engineering, specific custom hardware and software/firmware design, production, installation and integration, testing, reporting and documentation in accordance with the Statement of Work provided in Part I - Section C. Performance will take place onsite at the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), William J. Hughes Technical Center (WJHTC) in Atlantic City International Airport, NJ, and/or at the contractor’s offsite location as specified by individual delivery/task order(s).
The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 541519 (Other Computer Related Services) and the size standard is $27.5 million.
This procurement will be a Small Economic Disadvantaged Business 8(a) Set-Aside Competition utilizing Best Value Trade-Off procedures. The FAA will award a Time and Material (T&M), Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with a period of performance not to exceed eighty-four (84) months (7 years). The resultant contract will have a one-year base ordering period with six (6) one-year ordering periods. The contractor must provide the services necessary to accomplish the tasks described in Part I – Section C of this contract as authorized by the Contracting Officer (CO) through the issuance of delivery/task order(s). The CO is the only person authorized to issue orders under this IDIQ contract.
All terms and conditions contained in this document will be applicable to all orders issued.
B.2 MINIMUM ORDERING OBLIGATION AND MAXIMUM CEILING
The minimum ordering obligation under this contract is $100,000.00 and this amount will be obligated on Delivery/Task Order No. 0001. The Government has no obligation to order additional services or issue additional orders to the Contractor beyond the minimum ordering obligation specified.
The total estimated maximum/not-to-exceed (NTE) contract ceiling amount is To Be Determined (TBD) and will be determined based on the total value of all hours (3,481,148 maximum total hours) and estimated travel and other direct costs (ODC) ceiling values identified in the pricing spreadsheet in Section J (Attachment J-2). Orders are anticipated to be placed on a yearly basis and incrementally funded in accordance with contract clause AMS 3.3.1-39. The aggregate value of all orders placed against this task order will not exceed the total maximum NTE contract ceiling amount. This effort will be funded as hours are ordered. The initial obligation is $100,000.00 (details for how funding is applied to labor hours and/or travel costs will be outlined at time of award in the individual order). Regardless of the estimated period of performance, the contractor shall only continue work until the obligated amount of funds are depleted and the contractor is required to notify the Contracting Officer when 75% of the obligated funds are depleted in accordance with contract clause AMS 3.3.1-39.
B.3 TIME AND MATERIALS (T&M) CLINS
The contractor must propose fully burdened onsite and offsite labor hour rates as identified in the pricing spreadsheet contained in Part III - Section J, Attachment J-2.
Page | 3
Onsite Rates: Effort performed at the FAA William J. Hughes Technical Center or other FAA or government facility. One composite fully burdened labor rate will represent effort performed by either the prime contractor or subcontractor.
Offsite Rates: Effort performed at the contractor’s facility. One composite fully burdened labor rate will represent effort performed offsite by either the prime contractor or subcontractor.
The awarded pricing spreadsheet will be contained in Section J (Attachment 2) and will be used for contract/delivery order pricing and billing purposes. From the effective date of the contract award, it is anticipated that a transition period (not to exceed 60 days) will occur. The transition period will not be separately priced and shall be included in the base period services.
A fully burdened rate is defined as the direct hourly labor rate that includes wages, overhead, general and administrative expenses, profit, fringe benefits, and direct tax/labor/payroll burden. The rate will also reflect expenses for contract management, including the preparation of invoices, price and technical proposals, contract status reports, etc., but will exclude travel and other direct costs (ODCs) (as described in Section G). Additionally, if the fully burden Offsite rate will include all costs/expenses associated with providing adequate contractor owned/leased facilities at various locations to include, but not limited to those identified in Section G.6. These rates, which will represent the rates that the Government will accept during the life of this contract, will be used on all orders issued under this contract.
a. In performance of the effort ordered under the T&M CLINs of this contract, the Contractor shall provide the total number of personnel based on the ordered amount of T&M labor hours as specified in the individual order for the associated contract period. Work under these CLINs will be performed for all SOW sections in accordance with Section C. For purposes of this provision, labor hours are defined as actual work hours exclusive of vacation, holidays, sick leave and any other absences.
b. Only those labor categories indicated in Attachment J-5 shall be charged to this contract. The functional descriptions and education and experience requirements for these labor categories are provided in Section J, Attachment J-5 Labor Category/Skill level descriptions. It is estimated that the identified maximum amount of T&M labor hours, per year, in Attachment J-2 may be necessary to accomplish the requirements of the Statement of Work. FAA reserves the right to increase or decrease the T&M hours for any contract year depending on requirements. Changes to the number of hours will be made in accordance with Section I clause 3.10.1-14 (Changes -Time and Materials or Labor Hours).
c. The success of this contract is heavily dependent on the use of office automation technology to allow collaborative work and the rapid dissemination of information among task participants. On this basis, the Contractor must consider the cost of an automated office as part of its fully burdened offsite rate.
This must include the following:
• Adequate contractor-owned/leased workstations at the contractor’s facility to support the contractor’s site staff. Workstations shall be capable, at a minimum, of running the most current Microsoft Office Suite being used by the FAA. Given the potential seven (7) year life of this contract, the need for technology refresh is anticipated.
• Maintain an in-house local area network (LAN) capable of providing requisite levels of file sharing and e-mail for their employees. Maintenance of the offsite LAN shall also be considered as part of the fully burdened rate.
