1.3 INVOICES

Individual delivery orders issued against this contract will establish specific invoicing procedures. Wide Area Work Flow (electronic invoicing/payment system) is required for payment under this contract unless specified otherwise in individual task orders. A Wide Area Work Flow worksheet with the invoice routing addresses will be issued for each task order issued under this contract and will be applicable only for the task for which it is issued.

1.5 WIDE AREA WORK FLOW INSTRUCTIONS

Wide Area Work Flow Receipt and Acceptance (WAWF-RA) Vendor Instructions Installation and Registration Checklist

Completion of all instructions contained in this checklist must be accomplished prior to activation of the firm and user accounts

1. Check Central Contractor Registration System (CCR) (www.ccr.gov) to see if your company is registered.

If you are registered in CCR, please go to Step 3 below.

For help with registration in CCR, contact the CCR Help desk, 888-227-2423 or e-mail CCR@dlis.dla.mil or see the CCR Handbook at http://www.ccr.gov/handbook.cfm.

2. Register with Central Contractor Registry (CCR).

All vendors desiring to quote on goods or services in support of the Department of Defense (DoD) must be registered in the CCR at http://www.ccr.gov/.

Ensure that all mandatory fields are completed in your new CCR account (i.e., Telephone/Fax number, Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) and/or Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) codes, North American Industry Code Systems (NAICS) codes, etc).

Note: All contractors are required to update their CCR registration annually. Failure to do so will result in suspension of the account, which will prevent or delay awarding DoD contracts and payments to your firm.

3. Establish an Electronic Business Point of Contact (EB POC).

The next step is to ensure that you have identified an EB POC for your company. You are required to establish both a primary and alternate EB POC for each CAGE/DUNS code assigned to the firm.

To see if an EB POC is listed for your company, go to http://www.ccr.gov/ and click on “Search CCR.”

Where prompted, enter the DUNS or CAGE or Company Name and click “Submit Query.” If you are presented with a list of DUNS numbers, you will need to pick the specific location and click on the DUNS.

Scroll to the bottom of the Inquiry Results page. There you can see if anyone is listed as the EB POC. If no one is listed, your company has not identified an EB POC yet. If you see that there is no one listed as your company’s EB POC, you need to click on “Update or Renew Registrations Using TPIN” to add it.

Each vendor organization may establish up to two EB POC’s (primary and alternate) for each CAGE/DUNS combination.

The EB POC will be responsible for authorizing access to employee(s) of the vendor’s organization to view and/or modify data submitted on behalf of the vendor.

Update NAICS codes developed by the Census Bureau, which replaced the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes. Until NAICS codes are updated, update will not be complete. For more info on NAICS codes, visit: http://www.census.gov/epcd/www/naics.html

4. Establish a group in WAWF-RA associated with your cage code(s).

This can be done by calling DISA-Ogden Customer Support at 1-800-392-1798 or by e-mailing cscassig@ogden.disa.mil

5. Determine if your organization will designate a Group Administrator (GAM). (Proceed to paragraph 6 if you are not going to designate a GAM).

In medium to large sized companies, there may be need to establish more than one GAM.

A GAM determines who has access to the WAWF-RA vendor account.

The initial GAM shall be the person designated as the EB POC. To appoint additional GAM’s, each vendor must submit an official appointment letter signed by the EB POC.

The appointment letter should be faxaed to the WAWF-RA Customer Support Center.

The Group Administrator’s Manual is available for reviewing to all WAWF-RA registered users.

The GAM Manual can be found in the Software Users Manual link within the WAWF-RA application.

6. Establish an organizational e-mail address

All records created in WAWF-RA are stored in a virtual file folder and as status is updated or changes, the system generates an e-mail notification to applicable individuals identified in the firm’s organizational e-mail account.

The GAM or EB POC shall provide the organizational e-mail to the WAWF-RA Customer Support Center.

Ensure that your firm’s organizational e-mail address is operational and can receive e-mail from WAWF-

RA prior to registering your e-mail address with the WAWF-RA Customer Support Center.

Note: If you do not set up an organizational e-mail address, the personal e-mail address of the first person who self-registers from your firm (CAGE/DUNS code), will be designated as the organizational e-mail address for your firm.

7. Set up PCs to access WAWF-RA

Set up the PCs of your organization’s users to access WAWF-RA.

Select the “Setting Up Your Machine” link on the WAWF-RA home page. For more information:

https://wawf.eb.mil/Instr.html.

8. Have all users self-register on the WAWF-RA website

Every user for your firm must self-register on the WAWF-RA website by completing the on-line registration form.

Select the “Self Register” link on the WAWF-RA home page and follow the instructions.

Users may access WAWF-RA with either a User ID/Password combination or a PKI certificate. Users who want to use a PKI certificate must obtain it before self-registering.

PKI Certificates may be obtained from one of the approved Interim External Certificate Authorities:

Operation Research Consultants Inc. http://eca.orc.com, Digital Signature Trust Co.

http://www.digsigtrust.com/home.html, or Verisign: http://www.verisign.com. The web sites provide the instructions needed to acquire a PKI Certificate.

If further assistance is needed, contact the WAWF-RA Customer Service Center.

Note: Registrations will not be activated until the WAWF-RA Customer Support Center receives an e-mail from the EB POC/GAM as registered in the CCR database.

9. Follow-Up (If necessary).

If your (GAM or user) account hasn’t been activated within two business days of self-registering contact the WAWF-RA Customer Service Center: 1-800-392-1798, FAX Commercial: 801-605-7453, DSN: 388- 7543, E-Mail: cscassig@ogden.disa.mil Note: Reference “WAWF” in e-mail Subject line.

Section H - Special Contract Requirements

LOCAL PROCEDURES

1.0 PLACE OF PERFORMANCE:

1.1 Locations of work will be at Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM). The specific place of performance will be designated on each individual Task Order.

1.2 Any place the terms "engineer", "civil engineer", "62 CES" or similar designations for the engineering function are used in the solicitation and subsequent contract the terms "Department of Public Works" or DPW are considered freely interchangeable.

1.3 Any place "McChord AFB" may appear "Joint Base Lewis-McChord" or JBLM are interchangeable. Joint Base Lewis-McChord encompasses the entire facilities formerly known individually as Fort Lewis and McChord

AFB.

1.4 References to the 62d Contracting Squadron or 62 CONS are interchangeable with the terms Directorate of Contracting or DOC.

2.0 GENERAL CONTRACT DESCRIPTION

2.1 This is an indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract for construction efforts at Joint Base Lewis- McChord (JBLM), Washington. The government will award construction projects by individual Task Orders on an as needed basis. The contractor shall furnish all personnel, equipment, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and services necessary to design, manage, and accomplish a broad range of maintenance, repair, alteration, and/or new construction work on various real property facilities. During the contract period construction, repair or renovation projects will be identified to the Contracting Officer who will issue individual Task Orders to the contractor to complete the work. The contractor shall maintain an office on JBLM in order to receive work requests and other related requirements to accomplish each individual Task Order. The work shall include tasks in various trades such as carpentry, pavement repairs, roofing, asbestos abatement/removal, demolition, concrete masonry, welding, etc.

2.1.1 Unit Price Guides (UPG): UPGs include commercial pricing tools such as computer cost databases and libraries of hard copy books. The R.S. Means © cost data books are the designated UPGs for this solicitation and contract. UPGs consist of detailed task specifications along with a standard unit of measure and a unit price for each. Because the task specifications and prices apply to a general area or industry, it is necessary to tailor the UPG to the costs and practices of a specific location. This step, which is called “localization,” is critical to the success of a SABER Program. Commercial software alternatives are available for the localization process and for compiling the basic task listings and standard unit prices. Examples of commercially available estimating software compatible with the R.S. Means database are those published by WinEstimator Inc., 4Clicks, Sage North America, R.S.

MEANS, Inc., et al.

2.1.2 COEFFICIENTS (REFERENCE SECTION B LINE ITEM 0001) Coefficients are factors that are multiplied against the standard unit prices in the UPG to calculate task order (TO) prices. Proposed coefficients should cover cost elements such as overhead, profit, minimum design costs, G&A expenses, bond premiums, and gross receipts taxes etc.

2.1.2.1 Coefficient 01 applies to all work on Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM) during standard work hours except for task orders issued for work in a controlled area or otherwise requiring Government escorts. This coefficient remains valid for the entire contract period including any options exercised.

2.1.2.2 Coefficient 02 applies to all work on Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM) during standard work hours to be performed in controlled areas or otherwise requiring Government escorts. This coefficient remains valid for the entire contract period including any options exercised.

2.1.2.3 Coefficient 03 applies to all work on Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM) during non-standard work hours except for task orders issued for work in a controlled area or otherwise requiring Government escorts. This coefficient remains valid for the entire contract period including any options exercised.

2.1.2.4 Coefficient 04 applies all work on Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM) during non-standard work hours to be performed in controlled areas or otherwise requiring Government escorts. This coefficient remains valid for the entire contract period including any options exercised.

2.1.2.5 Coefficient 05 applies to items not covered by the Unit Price Guide contractually referred to as Non Pre- Priced Items. This coefficient shall take into account any efficiency factor the contractor applied to Coefficients 01, 02, 03 and 04. This coefficient remains valid for the entire contract period including any options exercised.

2.1.2.6 Coefficient 06 is for that portion of coefficients 01, 02, 03 and 04 attributed to project estimating. Estimates provided and paid for using this coefficient will remain valid for 120 calendar days from the date the negotiated estimate is accepted by the Government without consideration given to the quarterly pricing updates of the Unit Price Guide provided for elsewhere in this contract. This coefficient remains valid for the entire contract period including any options exercised. This coefficient applies for Task Order Requests for Proposal (TORFP) where the contractor does not execute a Hold Harmless Agreement in lieu of receipt of this estimating fee. Coefficient 06 is intended for use to expedite year-end or emergency requirements; the contracting officer may process SABER projects up to the point of award in advance of full project funding. Coefficient 06 is designated to compensate the contractor for the level of effort expended in estimating, designing, and negotiating the project task order in advance of full funding. Any payment the contractor receives under this line item will be offset by a reduction from the negotiated price of the TO if the project results in a later award. While it is not the government’s intent to have the contractor provide an estimating service for projects with no serious SABER construction consideration, the Government is not obligated to issue a Task Order for the construction work described in the Task Order issued for project estimating. The Contracting Officer will work closely with Civil Engineering to insure that projects priced in advance of funding are not excessive and that there is a high probability of funding. This coefficient may be used for anticipated construction projects at the discretion of the Contracting Officer. However, the Hold Harmless Agreement included as an attachment to this solicitation and contract will normally be included in individual TORFP for yearend requirements issued under the authority of a Special Advanced Authority or emergency requirements which the contractor may accept and sign in lieu of payment under this coefficient.

2.1.3 Task Order Pricing

2.1.3.1 The "bare costs" are defined as the UPG price from the column that includes the total costs before the application of any overhead and profit.

2.1.3.2 The prices established in the RS MEANS® database Bare Costs (which means no markup for overhead and profit) column, will be multiplied by the City Cost Index Weighted Average Total for Tacoma, Washington and totaled, then Washington State Use Tax at the rate specified for Zip Code 98438 shall be added for the material costs to arrive as the total to which the coefficient shall be applied; then this subtotal shall be multiplied by the applicable coefficient to arrive at the actual price for a unit of work.

2.1.3.3 In order to be considered for contract award, offerors must submit all coefficients included as part of Line Item 0001. These six coefficients shall remain valid for the entire contract period including any options exercised.

The Government uses these multipliers to determine the price of work for each task on individual task orders. The coefficient will be represented as “net”, a “decrease from” or an “increase to”, the prices listed in RS MEANS®.

An offer of “net” would be represented as “1.0.” An example of a decrease from the prices in RS MEANS® would be “0.98.” An example of an increase above the prices in RS MEANS® would be “1.10”.

2.1.3.4 Offered coefficients must contain all allowable contractor costs, including contingencies and profit.

Examples of such costs are State gross receipts taxes and payroll taxes, such as FICA, workmen’s compensation (when not included in the wage determination), state and federal unemployment taxes for direct payroll employees, superintendents’ salaries, builders’ risk insurance, mobilization and demobilization expenses, and bond premiums;

and various overhead expenses, such as project estimating, site office overhead, field office building, furniture, equipment, on-site office staff salaries, vehicle and construction equipment maintenance, office administrative expenses and a proportional share of home office overhead. The coefficient should also include all insurance, special clothing for workers, traffic barricades, flag persons, additional supervision, paperwork fees associated with a particular task order, consultant fees, all on and off site storage, etc.

2.1.4 Non-Pre-priced Items (NPIs):

2.1.4.1 Items of work not covered by the Unit Price Guide (UPG) but within its scope and general intent and necessary to complete the requirements of a specific task order may be negotiated and incorporated into the task order by the Contracting Officer. Non-pre-priced work shall be so noted on each task order and will not exceed 10% of the final negotiated amount. Proposed costs for non-pre-priced items will be supported by three verifiable price quotes where possible.

2.1.4.2 Coefficient 05 shall be applied to the quoted, verified and negotiated NPI costs to arrive at the total cost for any NPIs before inclusion in the total task order price.

2.1.4.3 To permit recurrent use, a non-pre-priced line item must be incorporated by supplemental agreement into a locally developed non-pre-priced UPB. This may be done at any time during the contract period.

2.1.5 Construction projects under this contract will generally range from $2,000 to $750,000. However, where the Contracting Officer has determined in writing that an emergency exists or that the project is of such pressing need the maximum task order amount may be increased to $1,000,000 for an individual project. There is no pertinent historical information from previous SABER contracts due to the recent consolidation of Fort Lewis and McChord AFB into the Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM). The estimated value of task orders is $9, 500,000 per year with a maximum contract program value of $47,500,000 over the life of the contract.

2.1.6 Ordering Procedures.

2.1.6.1 Work under this contract will be ordered by written Task Orders issued on DD Form 1155 (Order for Supplies or Services) to the contractor by the Contracting Officer.

2.1.6.3 The Government will not be obligated to reimburse the contractor for work performed, items delivered, or any costs incurred, nor shall the contractor be obligated to perform, deliver, or otherwise incur costs except as authorized by duly executed Task Orders. Requests for proposals will indicate funds availability. Occasionally, the government will request a proposal for projects for which funds are not certified or readily available. Air Mobility Command (AMC) refers to these acquisitions as “Normal Straddle Bid” or “Special Advance Authority” (SAA) projects. Information specifically identifying these projects and the funding restriction will be included in the request for proposal.

2.1.6.4 Task Orders will be firm fixed price and clearly define the specific services to be performed or the performance desired. Each Task Order may contain additional, site or project specific, provisions. Any such additional provisions shall be a part of the Task Order Request for Proposal.

2.1.6.5 Task Order projects shall be for non-complex performance oriented tasks requiring design up to 35%. Some projects may be already designed or require very little design effort. The ordering procedures are defined in the basic SABER specifications, Attachment 1.

2.1.6.6 Task Orders may be modified by the Contracting Officer. Modifications to Task Orders will be issued on Standard Form (SF) 30 and cite the Task Order Number.

2.1.6.7 Contractors are required to contact the Contracting Officer within two days after receipt of Task Order Request for Proposal (TORFP) if they plan not to participate in the walk through or submit a proposal on a Task Order.

2.1.6.10 The contractor must include justification for any non-pre-priced work included for an individual requirement. The contractor shall first attempt to price all unit prices using the computerized database provided by RS MEANS®. If an item is not included in this database or if the contractor’s computer system is not available, the contractor shall use the hard copy of the MEANS Facility Construction Cost Data to price the items. If the contractor cannot locate a particular item in either of these sources, the contractor shall then extend the search to the following MEANS pricing guides before considering it a non-priced item.

Mechanical Cost Data Plumbing Cost Data Electrical Cost Data Assemblies Cost Data Repair and Remodeling Cost Data

2.1.6.11 The contractor’s proposal shall be supported by necessary documentation to indicate that adequate engineering and planning to accomplish the requirement have been done. Examples of documentation that might reasonably be expected would include drawings, calculations, catalog cuts, specifications, architectural renderings, etc.

2.1.6.12 Time for submittal of the contractor’s proposal for individual requirements will be as agreed upon by the government and the contractor or as specified in the TORFP.

2.1.6.13 Upon receipt of the contractor’s proposal, the Government will review the proposal for completeness. The Government will negotiate with the contractor all non-pre-priced items, quantities for pre-priced items, and performance times.

2.1.6.14 Each task order will include the following information.

Item number, description, material submittal requirements, quantity and unit prices for pre-priced and non-pre-priced items and total. This is accomplished by incorporating the entire negotiated agreement into the task order.

2.1.7.1 In order to expedite year-end Normal Straddle Bid, Special Advance Authority, or emergency requirements, the government may request the contractor to prepare a design and cost proposal and participate in negotiations for a specific project prior to the Government's receipt of full project funding. This effort will be referred to as Project

Estimating. Compensation for Project Estimating will be determined by multiplying each task negotiated for the work described in the request for proposal (individual Task Order) times the figure entered on the Price Schedule for Project Estimating. It is paramount that the figure entered on the Schedule for Project Estimating represent only that portion of CLIN 0009 (option year CLIN as appropriate), attributed to Project Estimating. The figure shall remain constant for the duration of the contract, to include any options that may be exercised and shall not be construed as an additional cost under the contract. Only the CLIN for Project Estimating shall be computed on Task Orders issued for that purpose.

2.1.7.2 Once funds become available for the actual construction of a project previously negotiated under a project estimating Task Order, the amount previously paid under that Task Order shall be deducted from the total price of the Task Order issued for the actual construction.

2.1.7.3 While it is not the government's intent to have the contractor provide an estimating service for projects with no serious SABER construction consideration, the Government is not obligated to issue a Task Order for the construction work described in the Task Order issued for project estimating.

2.1.7.4 If the Government and the contractor cannot come to an agreement on a particular project to be priced under the project estimating process, negotiations shall be terminated without cost to the government.
