NOTES

Note 1: In order to be considered for award, the offeror must submit a coefficient for each line item above. The

Government uses these multipliers to determine the price of work on individual task orders. The prices established in the R.S. Means® database bare costs (no markup from the overhead and profit (O&P) column) will be multiplied by applicable coefficient, and then the CCI Weighted Average for Dover, Delaware, to arrive at the actual price for a unit of work. Each coefficient shall be represented as "net", a "decrease from" or an "increase to" the prices listed in the R.S. Means®. An offer of "net" would be represented as "1.0." An example of a decrease from the prices in

R.S. Means® would be "0.98." An example of an increase above the prices listed in the R.S. Means® would be

"1.10." The figure annotated for Project Estimating shall be entered as a percentage.

Note 2: If the Government directs a work schedule during nonstandard hours, then the coefficients entered for the nonstandard hours, as appropriate, shall be applied against those items of work which will be performed during the nonstandard hours. The price for the remaining items of work would be calculated using the coefficients entered for standard hour work, as appropriate. The term "nonstandard working hours" is not to be interpreted as "overtime."

Note 3: Offered coefficients must contain all allowable contractor costs, including contingencies and profit.

Examples of such costs are gross receipts taxes and payroll taxes, such as FICA, workmen's compensation, state and federal unemployment taxes for direct payroll employees, superintendents' salaries, builders' risk insurance, initial contract startup mobilization and demobilization expenses, task order mobilization and demobilization expenses, all bond premiums (prime and all subcontractors), various overhead expenses, including 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, additional supervision, as well as paperwork fees associated with a particular task order, consultant fees, all on and off site storage, etc.

Note 4: The following Divisions/Subdivisions as contained in R.S. Means® shall not be used as line items in pricing task orders under this contract. These costs shall be covered in the coefficients:

01 58 Project Identification

01 71 Examination and Preparation

01 74 Cleaning and Waste Management

01 91 Commissioning

Note 5: There shall be no changes in the coefficients for option periods. The R.S. Means® Construction Cost Data updates their database annually with updates to the CCI quarterly. The annual RS Means Construction Data updates along with the quarterly CCI updates shall provide the only economic price adjustment under the contract. Davis-

Bacon Wage Determinations, current at the start of each option period shall be incorporated by modification with the exercise of any option period.

Note 6: The terms and conditions of the contract, including but not limited to coefficients, prices included in the R.

S. Means® Construction database, and prices included in the Locally Developed Unit Price Guide (LDUPG) are applicable to any delivery order modification.

Note 7: The coefficient applicable to the initial task order will remain in effect throughout the life of the task order, to include any and all modifications. The exception to this would be, for example, work that was originally accomplished in an area not requiring escorts that for some reason changes to work now accomplished in an area requiring escorts. Also, work on a task order could include two coefficients; one for an area of work that does not require escorts, and another part of the work in another area that is for work in an area requiring escorts; i.e., a maintenance hangar where some, but not all of the work will occur in a secured area.

Note 8: In order to expedite year-end 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, not including the coefficient, times the figure entered on the Price Schedule for Project Estimating. It is paramount that the figure entered on the Schedule for Project Estimating represents only that portion of CLINs 0001-0005 attributed to Project Estimating. Only the CLIN for Project Estimating shall be computed on task orders issued for that purpose.

Once funds become available for the actual construction of a project previously negotiated under Project

Estimating, the task order for actual construction shall be adjusted (decreased) by the amount previous paid for project estimating and a separate task order shall be issued to construct the work described in the statement of work.

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.

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.

Clauses and provisions from the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and supplements thereto are incorporated in this document by reference and full text. Those incorporated by reference have the same force and effect as if they were given in full text.

Clauses and provisions in this document will be numbered in sequence, but will not necessarily appear in consecutive order.

Sections K, L and M will be physically removed from any resultant contract, but will be deemed to be incorporated in any award.

1. Workers' compensation and employer's liability. Contractors are required to comply with applicable Federal and

State workers' compensation and occupational disease statutes. If occupational diseases are not compensable under those statutes, they shall be covered under the employer's liability section of the insurance policy, except when contract operations are so commingled with a contractor's commercial operations that it would not be practical to require this coverage. Employer's liability coverage of at least $100,000 shall be required, except in States with exclusive or monopolistic funds that do not permit workers' compensation to be written by private carriers.

2. General liability. The contracting officer shall require bodily injury liability insurance coverage written on the comprehensive form of policy of at least $500,000 per occurrence.

3. Automobile liability. The contracting officer shall require automobile liability insurance written on the comprehensive form of policy. The policy shall provide for bodily injury and property damage liability covering the operation of all automobiles used in connection with performing the contract.

However, when the value of task orders in progress exceeds the existing bonding, the Contracting Officer will require additional bond protection by directing the contractor to increase the penal amount of the existing bond, or to obtain additional bonds. All bond premium costs shall be included in the coefficients as an indirect cost. Since bond premium costs are included in the coefficients, there shall be no payments or government reimbursement for bond premiums. Payments for bond premiums, at any time during contract performance, are not additional costs under this contract.

3. Performance Bond: The penal sum of the performance bond at the time of contract award shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the anticipated yearly average of $4,000,000.

4. Payment Bond: The penal amount of payment bonds at the time of contract award shall be one hundred percent

(100%) of the anticipated yearly average of $4,000,000.

5. Required bonds shall be furnished by the contractor to the government prior to commencement of contract performance.

Force Protection Conditions (FPCONSs) are implemented on the base to increase protective measures in anticipation of, or in response to, the threat of terrorist attack. The Department of Defense (DoD) FPCON consists of five progressive levels of increasing protective measures. The circumstances that may apply and the purpose of each protective posture are as follows:

FPCON NORMAL: Applies when a general global threat of possible terrorists activity exists and warrants a routine security posture. At a minimum, access control will be conducted at all DoD installations and facilities.

FPCON ALPHA: Applies when there is an increased general threat of possible terrorist activity against personnel or facilities, and the nature and extend of the threat are unpredictable. ALPHA measures must be capable of being maintained indefinitely.

FPCON BRAVO: Applies when an increased or more predictable threat of terrorists activity exits. Sustaining

BRAVO measures for a prolonged period may affect operational capability and military-civil relationships with local authorities.

FPCON CHARLIE: Applies when an incident occurs or intelligence is received indicating some form of terrorist action or targeting against personnel or facilities is likely. Prolonged implementation of CHARLIE measures may create hardship and affect the activities of the unit and its personnel.

FPCON DELTA: Applies in the immediate area where a terrorist attack has occurred or when intelligence has been received that a terrorist action against a specific location or person is imminent. This FPCON is usually declared as a localized condition. PFCON DELTA measures are not intended to be sustained for an extended duration.

H-005 TASK ORDER RANGE

Construction projects under this contract will generally range from $2,000 to $500,000. There is a possibility that some task orders may exceed $500,000. For historical data, please refer to section L of this solicitation.

H-006 STATUTORY COST LIMITATIONS

SABER Management, telephone no. to be provided after award.

H-008 NOTICE TO PROCEED

With the exception of the initial task order issued with the award of the contract, the Notice to Proceed for written task orders shall be the date the contractor receives the order. The government may issue a delayed Notice to

Proceed to meet scheduling requirements. In rare instances, on those projects deemed emergencies, the government may issue an oral confirming order prior to the issuance of the written task order. In that case, the Notice to Proceed shall be the date the contractor is provided a task order number and verbal direction by the Contracting Officer, with written confirmation to follow within 72 hours. A formal Notice to Proceed will be issued for the contract and the initial task order issued with the award of the contract.

H-009 GREEN PROCUREMENT

The Green Procurement Program (GPP) is a mandatory federal acquisition program that focuses on the purchase and use of environmentally preferable products and services. Many different items are covered by the GPP. Recycled-content products are designated by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). “Bio-based” products made from renewable plant materials are designated by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Energy and water efficient products are designated by the Department of Energy (DOE). GPP also requires us to avoid purchasing

Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS) and EPA-designated Priority Chemicals. Environmentally preferable purchasing (EPP) is a voluntary program, and it encourages the purchase of goods and services that have decreased effects on human health and the environment (compared to the competing goods and services that serve the same purpose), but are not already required by one of the mandatory GPP elements.

The EPA promulgates this produce information via the Federal Register and the World Wide Web/Internet at http://www.epa.gov/cpg/products/html. Green Procurement is mandated, except when the contractor can show that the product with recycled content does not meet intended specifications, has excessive cost, or cannot be delivered in time to support the schedule of the contract. If the contractor is unable to locate a specified product meeting the GPP http://www.epa.gov/cpg/products/html requirement, identify the issue to the Contracting Officer’s Technical Representative for guidance. GPP is based on legal requirements and the Department of Defense facilities are subject to enforcement action if these requirements are ignored.

H-010 MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEETS (MSDS)

The contractor shall be required to maintain Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for all hazardous materials in accordance with base and federal guidelines. Prior to the performance of any task order, the contractor shall submit to the contracting officer a list of the hazardous materials to be brought on base. This list shall include all materials to be used by the prime contractor and all sub-contractors. The list must include estimated quantities of each hazardous material that is contemplated to be used during the performance of the task order. The contractor is required to provide a copy of the MSDS for each product identified on the list. The contractor is required to submit a list of all MSDS and the quantity of each being taken off the base as required by the terms and conditions of the contract. Applicable MSDS shall be maintained at the job site until performance on that task order is complete. Any questions concerning hazardous material can be directed to the HAZMAT Pharmacy on Dover Air Force Base, Delaware at (302) 677-6714.

H-011 IDENTIFICATION OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS DURING PROPOSAL AND BEFORE NOTICE TO

PROCEED

In accordance with FAR 52.223-3 entitled “Hazardous Material Identification and Material Safety Data”, paragraph

(d) “The apparently successful offeror agrees to submit, for each item as required prior to award, a Material Safety

Data Sheet, meeting the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.1200(g) and the latest version of Federal Standard No. 313, for all hazardous material identified in paragraph (b) of this clause. Data shall be submitted in accordance with

Federal Standard No. 313, whether or not the apparently successful offeror is the actual manufacturer of these items.

Failure to submit the Material Safety Data Sheet prior to award may result in the apparently successful offeror being considered non-responsible and ineligible for award. “

H-012 CONTRACT PHASE IN/PHASE OUT

The contractor shall commence any mobilization and familiarization activities prior to actual work on individual task orders as soon after contract award as practicable. However, within 15 calendar days after contract award, the contractor shall mobilize the necessary personnel and equipment to estimate and negotiate requirements. The contractor shall have a fully operational field office with all required facilities, staff and ADP capabilities within 30 calendar days after contract award.

The contractor must vacate government furnished offices and storage areas in and around building 638 on the last day of the contract period. Premises must be returned in the same condition in which they were received or as agreed to by the contracting officer. All ongoing task orders must be completed from an approved field office or off-base location at no additional cost to the government. For additional information on the contractor use of premises, see the Technical Specifications – General Requirements, pages 11 and 12.

H-013 WAGE RATES – EXERCISE OF OPTIONS

The Contracting Officer shall, concurrent with the exercise of any option period, incorporate the current applicable

Davis-Bacon Wage Decisions that are effective on the first day of the option period and shall remain effective for the entire option period. These Wage Decisions shall be applicable to any task order issued within the applicable option period. The contractor shall compensate all covered employees at not less than the rates specified on the Wage

Decision or Decisions applicable to the specific task order during the current option period. Under no circumstances shall the coefficients be changed to accommodate increases in wages, as adjustments for wage increases are inherent in annual revisions of the R.S. Means® database. Additionally, R. S. Means® pricing has no impact on the classification of workers on individual task orders. Area practice and guidance from the U. S. Department of Labor will determine classifications of workers.

If a project is accomplished at the Dover Air Force Base remote property near Ellendale DE, the applicable Sussex

County wage determination at the time will be applicable to that requirement.
