As prescribed in 232.706-70, use the following clause:

LIMITATION OF GOVERNMENT'S OBLIGATION (APR 2014)

(a) Contract line item(s) is/are incrementally funded. For this/these item(s), the sum of $ [Contracting Officer insert after negotiations] of the total price is presently available for payment and allotted to this contract. An allotment schedule [Contracting Officer insert after negotiations] is set forth in paragraph (j) of this clause.

(b) For item(s) identified in paragraph (a) of this clause, the Contractor agrees to perform up to the point at which the total amount payable by the Government, including reimbursement in the event of termination of those item(s) for the Government's convenience, approximates the total amount currently allotted to the contract. The Contractor is not authorized to continue work on those item(s) beyond that point. The Government will not be obligated in any event to reimburse the Contractor in excess of the amount allotted to the contract for those item(s) regardless of anything to the contrary in the clause entitled "Termination for Convenience of the Government." As used in this clause, the total amount payable by the Government in the event of termination of applicable contract line item(s) for convenience includes costs, profit, and estimated termination settlement costs for those item(s).

(c) Notwithstanding the dates specified in the allotment schedule in paragraph (j) of this clause, the Contractor will notify the Contracting Officer in writing at least ninety days prior to the date when, in the Contractor's best judgment, the work will reach the point at which the total amount payable by the Government, including any cost for termination for convenience, will approximate 85 percent of the total amount then allotted to the contract for performance of the applicable item(s). The notification will state (1) the estimated date when that point will be reached and (2) an estimate of additional funding, if any, needed to continue performance of applicable line items up to the next scheduled date for allotment of funds identified in paragraph (j) of this clause, or to a mutually agreed upon substitute date. The notification will also advise the Contracting Officer of the estimated amount of additional funds that will be required for the timely performance of the item(s) funded pursuant to this clause, for a subsequent period as may be specified in the allotment schedule in paragraph (j) of this clause or otherwise agreed to by the parties. If after such notification additional funds are not allotted by the date identified in the Contractor's notification, or by an agreed substitute date, the Contracting Officer will terminate any item(s) for which additional funds have not been allotted, pursuant to the clause of this contract entitled "Termination for Convenience of the Government."

(d) When additional funds are allotted for continued performance of the contract line item(s) identified in paragraph (a) of this clause, the parties will agree as to the period of contract performance which will be covered by the funds. The provisions of paragraphs (b) through (d) of this clause will apply in like manner to the additional allotted funds and agreed substitute date, and the contract will be modified accordingly.

(e) If, solely by reason of failure of the Government to allot additional funds, by the dates indicated below, in amounts sufficient for timely performance of the contract line item(s) identified in paragraph (a) of this clause, the Contractor incurs additional costs or is delayed in the performance of the work under this contract and if additional funds are allotted, an equitable adjustment will be made in the price or prices (including appropriate target, billing, and ceiling prices where applicable) of the item(s), or in the time of delivery, or both. Failure to agree to any such equitable adjustment hereunder will be a dispute concerning a question of fact within the meaning of the clause entitled "Disputes."

(f) The Government may at any time prior to termination allot additional funds for the performance of the contract line item(s) identified in paragraph (a) of this clause.

(g) The termination provisions of this clause do not limit the rights of the Government under the clause entitled "Default." The provisions of this clause are limited to the work and allotment of funds for the contract line item(s) set forth in paragraph (a) of this clause. This clause no longer applies once the contract is fully funded except with regard to the rights or obligations of the parties concerning equitable adjustments negotiated under paragraphs (d) and (e) of this clause.

(h) Nothing in this clause affects the right of the Government to terminate this contract pursuant to the clause of this contract entitled "Termination for Convenience of the Government."

(i) Nothing in this clause shall be construed as authorization of voluntary services whose acceptance is otherwise prohibited under 31 U.S.C.

2.4.3 Competition is a major focus of this contract. Accordingly, contractors are highly encouraged to submit a proposal for every requirement solicited under this contract. In the event a contractor does not provide a proposal, a "no bid" statement shall be submitted to the CO along with a brief statement of the reason. A history of "no bids" or cursory proposals may result in a negative assessment in the Business Relations section of the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS). All contractors will be given a fair opportunity for all new requirements requesting support, with the exception of those TOs in which competition is limited in accordance with FAR 16.505(b)(2).

2.4.4 Based on TO requirements, the contractor shall determine the most appropriate pricing arrangement for each requirement and propose accordingly as requested in the TO. The Government will utilize Fixed Price Contract Line Items whenever feasible.

2.5 Contractor Submission of Task Order Proposals

2.5.1 See Attachment 9 - SETA VI Ordering Procedures for specifics regarding the FOPR process.

2.5.2 TOPs requirements will be stated in each individual FOPR, but may consist of a brief management overview, technical capabilities and information on limitation on subcontracting compliance. Resumes for the proposed personnel may be required to be submitted as part of the contractor's TO Proposal (TOP).

2.5.3 Proposals shall utilize the contractor's negotiated fully burdened labor rates incorporated in the basic contract at Attachment 3, and shall identify (1) labor category, (2) fully burdened labor rates, (3) proposed number of man-hours, (4) subtotal for each labor category, and (5) total cost/price for the requirement for the base and all option periods. For those tasks that may require overtime under the Service Contract Act, provide the fully burdened overtime rate and how it is calculated. For those tasks that require deployment and work in excess of the normal compensation for a forty (40) hour week, provide the fully-burdened labor rate proposed for those hours in excess of forty (40) and how it is calculated. Since material purchases and travel are reimbursable and only performed at the request of the Government, cost/price information for these items will not be provided as part of the TOP. Indirect Program Manager or other fees shall not be included as a TO expense. If an existing labor category is not sufficient for a TO, the contractor shall adhere to procedures for proposing new labor categories as outlined in Attachment 8 to the contract.

2.5.4 In the event performance is required at an off-site location, the contractor shall submit appropriately revised off-site "indirect rates" for the cost proposal.

2.6 Authorization to Proceed on Task Orders. Issuance of a TO is authorization to commence performance of the task. Orders normally are issued by email. The contractor is not authorized to commence task performance prior to the issuance of the TO or other written notice provided by the CO.

2.7 Task Order Completion. Within sixty (60) days of completion of TOs, submit a final invoice as outlined in Section G. Upon receipt of the "Final" invoice, the CO is authorized to unilaterally modify the TO to de-obligate remaining funds. For those TOs awarded with options, do not code the invoice "Final" in WAWF but include a statement in the item description that the invoice is the final for that base or option period as appropriate.

3 RIGHTS OF THE GOVERNMENT TO PERFORM FUNCTIONS WITH ITS OWN PERSONNEL

The Government reserves the right to perform or supplement performance of contract functions with Government personnel during periods of disaster, war, emergencies, police action, or acts of God.

4 CONTRACTOR ACQUISITION OF COMPUTERS

All computer equipment must comply with the AFSOC Command Policy for purchase of computer equipment in effect at time of purchase. The current policy may be obtained as needed from the organization's Computer Work Group Manager.

5 COMMUNICATIONS AND COMPUTER SECURITY MONITORING

All communications and computer use with DOD organizations are subject to communications security (COMSEC) or computer security (COMPUSEC) review. Contractor personnel will be aware that telecommunications networks and computer networks are continually subject to intercept by unfriendly intelligence organizations. The DOD has authorized the military departments to conduct COMSEC /COMPUSEC monitoring and recording of telephone calls/computer email and network usage originating from or terminating at DOD organizations. Therefore, civilian contractor personnel are advised that any time they place a call to or receive a call from a military organization, and when they utilize government email or networks they are subject to COMSEC/COMPUSEC procedures. The contractor will assume the responsibility for ensuring wide and frequent dissemination of the above information to all employees utilizing telecommunications or computer networks.

6 BASE SUPPORT AT HURLBURT FIELD OR AS SPECIFIED IN THE PWS

The Government will provide base support to the contractor in accordance with the provisions of this clause.

Failure by the contractor to comply with the provisions of this clause will release the Government, without prejudice, from its obligation to provide base support by the date(s) required. If warranted, and if the contractor has complied with the provisions of this clause, an equitable adjustment will be made if the Government fails to provide base support by the date(s) required.

6.1 Base support includes Government-controlled working space, material, equipment, services (including automated data processing), or other support (excluding use of the defense switched network), which the Government determines can be made available at, or through, any Air Force installation where this contract will be performed.

6.2 Support will be provided on a no-fee basis and the value will be part of the Government's contract consideration.

6.3 The contractor agrees to immediately report to the CO (with a copy to the COR) inadequacies, defective Government-Furnished Property (GFP), or non-availability of support stipulated in any order issued hereunder, together with a recommended plan for obtaining the required support. The Government will determine (within 10 workdays) the validity and extent of the involved requirement and the method by which it will be fulfilled (e.

g., purchase, rental, lease, GFP, etc.). Facilities will not be purchased under this clause. Additionally, the contractor (or authorized representative) will not purchase, or otherwise furnish any base support requirement provided by the clause (or authorize others to do so) without prior written approval of the CO regarding the price, terms, and conditions of the proposed purchase, or approval of other arrangements.

6.4 The Government support to be furnished under individual TOs awarded as a result of this contract:

6.4.1 Adequate office floor space, including electricity, water, sewage, trash removal services, and HVAC;

6.4.2 Appropriate level of telephone service;

6.4.3 Access to technical library service;

6.4.4 PC terminals necessary for task accomplishment, (due to the nature and location(s) of the work performed, the value of such equipment is indeterminable);

6.4.5 The contractor shall not incur any cost resulting from non-support prior to CO concurrence;

6.4.6 The contractor agrees that in the performance of this contract or any major subcontract no direct or indirect costs for property will be incurred if the Government determines that the property is available at, or through, any Air Force or military installation where this contract will/may be performed. Only the prior written approval of the CO can relieve the contractor from this restriction.

7 TRAINING OF CONTRACTOR EMPLOYEES

The contractor shall not bill for travel costs associated with contractor employee training unless specifically required and authorized in a TO; however, with the CO's approval, contractor employees may be allowed to attend Government-sponsored training at the contractor's expense. If travel is involved, a no-cost LOI shall be completed.

The contractor shall also abide by and comply with such rules and regulations, directions, or orders, not inconsistent herewith, as may from time to time be issued by the Government.

8.2 The contractor shall comply with, and shall ensure that its personnel and its subcontractors and subcontractor personnel at all tiers obey, all existing and future U.S. and Host Nation laws, Federal or DoD regulations, and Central Command orders and directives applicable to personnel in Iraq and Afghanistan, including but not limited to USCENTCOM, Multi-National Force and Multi-National Corps fragmentary orders, instructions and directives.

8.3 Contractor employees performing in the USCENTCOM Area of Operations are under the jurisdiction of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). Under the UCMJ, U.S. commanders may discipline contractor employees for criminal offenses. Contractors shall advise the CO if they suspect an employee has committed an offense. Contractors shall not permit an employee suspected of a serious offense or violating the rules for the use of force to depart Iraq or Afghanistan without approval from the senior U.S. commander in the country.

8.4 Rules and regulations of installation specified in the individual TO apply to all contractors and their employees.

13 ACCESS TO SAFETY PRIVILEGE DATA

13.1 Contractors may have a legitimate requirement for access to data that is protected by safety privilege, as specified by Air Force Instruction (AFI) 91-204, Safety Investigations and Reports, to advance the interest of Air Force safety. To ensure all personnel covered by this contract are adequately educated to these restrictions and to document acceptance of this responsibility, the follow measures will be taken:

13.1.1 As determined necessary by AFSOC/SE, contractor personnel will receive initial and annual training on requirements of safety privilege using approved courseware. This training must be documented and access to safety privilege data will be granted after execution of a Non-disclosure Agreement.

13.1.2 HQ AFSOC/SE will grant contractor access to privilege safety data when a validated requirement is documented. HQ AFSOC/SE will determine what data will be released to the contractor.

13.1.3 All products developed by contractors using safety privilege data will be reviewed by HQ AFSOC/SE to determine if the product is a privilege document. Contractors should attempt to only produce non-safety privilege documents; if the product is determined to contain safety privilege information, it will be protected in accordance with the restrictions in AFI 91-204.

13.1.4 All safety privilege data provided to contractors must be returned to HQ AFSOC/SE when the requirement for access is no longer needed.

14 AWARDING ORDERS UNDER MULTIPLE AWARD CONTRACTS

14.1 All multiple award contractors shall be provided a fair opportunity to be considered for each order in excess of the micropurchase threshold as defined in FAR 2.101 pursuant to the procedures established in this clause, unless one of the following statutory exceptions applies:

14.1.1 The agency need for the supplies or services is so urgent that providing a fair opportunity would result in unacceptable delays.

14.1.2 Only one awardee is capable of providing the supplies or services required at the level of quality required because the supplies or services ordered are unique or highly specialized.

14.1.3 The order must be issued on a sole-source basis in the interest of economy and efficiency because it is a logical follow-on to an order already issued under this contract, provided that all awardees were given a fair opportunity to be considered for the original order.

14.1.4 It is necessary to place an order to satisfy a minimum guarantee.

14.2 Per FAR 16.505(b), each awardee shall be given fair opportunity to be considered for task orders exceeding $3,000.00 and task orders exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold shall be placed on a competitive basis unless a statutory exception applies.

14.3 Under the provisions of the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act of 1994, 10 U.S.C. 2304c (Public Law 103-355), a protest is not authorized in connection with the issuance or proposed issuance of an individual task or delivery order except for a protest on the grounds that the order increases the scope, period, or maximum value of the contract under which the order is issued; or a protest of an order valued in excess of $25,000,000.00.

14.4 This clause does not guarantee issuance of any task or delivery order above the minimum guarantee(s) stated in Section B of this contract.

15 USE OF PORTABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICES

15.1 No Portable Electronic Device (PED), whether Government, personal, corporate, or contractor owned /leased, is permitted in any AFSOC office or building where classified or Controlled Unclassified Information (UCI) is processed, stored, or discussed without prior written approval from the respective Wing Information Protection Office and unit/directorate security manager.

15.2 Only Government-owned/leased PEDs with their transmitting capability properly disabled or controlled by software/hardware countermeasures may be used where classified or CUI is processed, stored or discussed.

Removing the batteries, powering down or putting a PED into an "airplane mode" (device works but cellular capability is turned off) does not eliminate the threat posed by these devices and does not meet the intent of this paragraph. Proper disabling of any PED will be done by a qualified client support administrator following procedures issued by the Command Information Assurance Office (IAO).

15.3 As used in this section, PEDs include:

15.3.1 Personal digital assistants (PDAs) (e.g. Blackberry, Palm Pilot, Cassiopeia, etc.);
