Payment Plan

3 May 2019

1 BASIS OF PAYMENT

The launch service shall be paid based on payment milestones. The milestones represent meaningful efforts or actions that are an integral and necessary part of performance. The basis for an event should be either specifically described events or a measurable criterion of performance. Included within this Payment Plan is what constitutes successful performance of each event. The task order will include the payment amounts, which are listed here as a percentage of the launch service price for all applicable firm fixed price (FFP) Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) pertaining to the mission (CLINs 0001, 0002, 0006 and 0010).

2 MILESTONE SUCCESS CRITERIA AND COMPLETION EVIDENCE

Each event milestone has associated measurable success criteria that serve to validate milestone accomplishment. All milestone success criteria must be met before the milestone payment will be authorized. When the Contractor has successfully completed all applicable milestone success criteria, the Contractor shall submit a Notice of Completion (NOC) for the milestone to the Procuring Contracting Officer (PCO). The NOC shall include supporting documentation to substantiate meeting the milestone success criteria as provided in the completion evidence defined herein.

3 EVENT MILESTONE PAYMENTS AND EVENT TIMING

Completion of milestone and subsequent NOCs may be submitted non-successively (e.g., if milestone two is completed before milestone one, then the Contractor may submit a NOC for milestone two before a NOC for milestone one). Additionally, the NOC may be for multiple milestones. In the event the Contractor completes a milestone ahead of the milestone completion date, the Contractor may include that milestone in the monthly NOC and the Government will consider, on a case-by-case basis, the early payment of the milestone.

The PCO will determine whether or not the Contractor has successfully met each of the milestone success criteria based on inputs provided by the United States Government (USG) Team (for Air Force missions) and the Mission Team (for NRO missions).

For Air Force missions, the USG team consists of the Air Force Space and Missile Systems Center Launch Enterprise Systems Directorate (SMC/LE), and the Air Force Program Executive Officer for Space office personnel; and also includes The Aerospace Corporation, LE’s Systems Engineering and Integration (SE&I) support contractors, LE’s Systems Engineering and Technical Assistance (SETA) support contractors, the NRO/Office of Space Launch (OSL) (as applicable), the SMC Independent Readiness Review Team, Defense Contract Management Agency, Defense Contract Audit Agency, 30th Space Wing (30 SW), 45th Space Wing (45 SW), and other organization as designated by the SMC/LE PCO.

For NRO missions, in addition to the USG Team listed above for Air Force missions, the Mission Team consists of the OSL Mission Manager (OMM), the OSL Contracting Officer’s Technical Representative (COTR), and their support personnel (to include Government, Aerospace Corporation, and SETA personnel). At their discretion, the OMM and COTR may solicit inputs from SMC/LE to assist in their determination of the Contractor’s satisfactory completion of the milestone success criteria. Written concurrence from both the OMM and COTR that the Contractor has successfully met the milestone success criteria is required before the PCO will authorize payment of the milestone.

To the maximum extent possible within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of the Contractor’s NOC, the PCO will provide written notification to the Contractor specifying which milestones contained in the NOC are determined to be “met” (complete) and, if necessary, which are considered “not met” (incomplete). For milestones identified as incomplete, the PCO will:

(1) specify in the notification, the issues(s) that led to the determination based upon the milestone success criteria and completion evidence provided herein, and (2) the corrective action(s) required to complete the milestone. The Government will ensure that the Contractor understands the required corrective actions. The Contractor will make a good faith effort to quickly complete the corrective actions. When the Contractor accomplishes the corrective actions, the Contractor will submit an NOC addendum to the PCO for Government review. To the maximum extent possible within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of the Contractor’s NOC addendum, the PCO will provide written notification to the Contractor specifying whether the Government concurs that all corrective actions have been accomplished and the milestone has been “met” (completed).

For each milestone, the Estimated Completion Date is the estimated date that the Contractor will complete the payment event and submit the associated NOC for payment of each milestone under this Plan. For each milestone, the value in the percentage “%” column of Table 1 indicates the percentage of the assigned mission value of all applicable FFP CLINs (CLINs 0001, 0002, 0006 and 0010) that will be used to calculate the dollar amount to be paid to the Contractor upon successful completion of the milestone. The Government reserves the right to withhold up to fifty percent (50%) of the total payment value for any unpaid milestone(s) in the event of a Government-approved Class 1 change required for the launch service that is not implemented or completed to meet the Government’s approval by the implementation deadlines specified in and in accordance with (IAW) Attachment 1 Performance Work Statement (PWS) section 3.2.4.4.

4 EVENT MILESTONE SCHEDULE

Criteria for payment of each event milestone appears in Table 1. In no event shall the Contractor receive payments in excess of 90% of the total contract price until after acceptance of the launch service IAW Milestone 12 (Government Acceptance of Launch Service IAW contract clause Federal Acquisition Regulation [FAR] 52.212-04, Addendum to Contract Terms and Conditions

– Commercial Items [October 2018]). Given that defects in service for the last Milestone 12, Acceptance of Launch Service, are not suitable for correction by re-performance, the PCO has determined that, pursuant to FAR 52.246-4(e), the appropriate relief for the Government in the event of Milestone 12 defect (e.g., mission failure) is to reduce the contract price by the amount of the full Milestone 10, Upper Stage Disposal, Final As-Built Configuration List (ABCL), and Final Fleet Insight ABCL: Milestone 11, Mission Orbital Parameter Accuracy Verification; and Milestone 12 payment, which appropriately reflects the reduced value of the services performed.
