GSA's streamlined ordering procedures have reduced the tedious, time-consuming government procurement process to a few simple steps. GSA has done this by prequalifying vendors to perform a range of services. GSA has reviewed vendor qualifications, capabilities and cost schedules in advance of the need for services, and identified these vendors, by type of service, on its GSA Advantage!TM web site. For Pepco Energy Services, INC, refer to Contract Number: GS-21F-0189W.

This approval is valid for all organizations in the federal government, and other governmental agencies, and the entire process, from identifying the Statement of Work (SOW) to having a contractor on board, can be completed in as little as three weeks.

To initiate the process, provide your contracts officer with a SOW. Your contracts officer will issue your SOW to three approved GSA Marketing, Media and Information Services vendors. You and your contracts officer then review the vendors’ responses, and select the "best value" contractor. A contract order is issued directly to the selected contractor.

GSA has put the process in place, and will assist you, if needed, but does not get involved in your procurement process.

In accordance with GSA Order ADM 4800.2F the following agencies and organizations are eligible to use the GSA

Schedule. The lists are not intended to be all-inclusive, please refer to the GSA Order for additional information.

Page | 7

• All Federal agencies and activities in the executive, legislative, and judicial branches;

Government contractors authorized in writing by a Federal agency pursuant to CFR 51. 1;

Mixed ownership government corporations (as defined in the Government Corporation Control Act);

The government of the District of Columbia; and, Other activities and organizations authorized by statute or regulation to use GSA as a source of supply. See links below for full listing.

SCOPE

Orders placed pursuant to a Multiple Award Schedule (MAS), using the procedures in FAR 8.404, are considered to be issued pursuant to full and open competition. Therefore, when placing orders under Federal Supply Schedules, ordering offices need not seek further competition, synopsize the requirement, make a separate determination of fair and reasonable pricing, or consider small business set-asides in accordance with Subpart 19.5. GSA has already determined the prices of items under Schedule contracts to be fair and reason-able. By placing an order against a Schedule using the procedures outlined below, the ordering office has concluded that the order represents the best value and results in the lowest overall cost alternative (considering price, special features, administrative costs, etc.) to meet the Government‘s needs.

Services provided under Special Item Numbers 871-202, 871-203, 871-204, 871-205, 871-206, 871-207, 871-208, 871-

209, and 871-210 Facilities Maintenance and Management Services apply to all Federal agencies, both civilian and

Defense. The prices, terms and conditions stated under Special Item Numbers 871-202, 871-203, 871-204, 871-205, 871-

206, 871-207, 871-208, 871-209, and 871-210 apply exclusively to Facilities Maintenance and Management Services within the scope of this Schedule. Pepco Energy shall provide services at Pepco Energy’s facility and/or at the

Government location, as agreed to by Pepco Energy and the ordering office. An adjusted rate is required for services to be performed in the geographic areas of Hawaii, Alaska and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.

Ordering procedures for Facilities Maintenance and Management Services Priced on

GSA Schedule at Hourly Rates

The GSA has determined that the rates for Facilities Maintenance and Management Services contained in this price list are fair and reasonable. However, the ordering office using this contract is responsible for considering the level of effort and mix of labor proposed to perform a specific task being ordered and for making a determination that the total firm fixed price or ceiling price is fair and reasonable. In accordance with the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act of 1994 and the Federal Acquisition Reform Act of 1996, GSA’s streamlined ordering procedures have reduced the government procurement process to a few simple steps. While the federal supply schedule program already has determined these rates to be fair and reasonable, ordering offices must determine that the total price is reasonable for the specific tasks required by the agency. Based on quotes requested from three contractors that appear to offer the best value

(considering scope of services offered, hourly rates, contractor’s locations and other factors, as appropriate), the ordering agency selects the one that best meets its needs.

This contract is available to all federal agencies for domestic and overseas use. Executive agencies, other federal agencies, mixed-ownership government corporations, and the District of Columbia; government contractors authorized in writing by a federal agency pursuant to FAR Part 51; and other activities and organizations authorized by statute or regulation to use GSA as a source of supply may use this contract. Additionally, contractors are encouraged to accept

Page | 8 orders received from activities within the executive branch of the federal government. GSA Order ADM 4800.2F provides a complete list of authorized schedule users.

Total price for services are established at the time the task order is placed and are based on the rates offered in the

Pepco Energy Services Price List catalog. The resultant task order details the estimated number of hours, the lab or categories to be provided, and any related items. If the ordering agency’s contracting officer chooses to purchase services on a labor-hour-time-and-material basis, the resultant task order will specify the not-to-exceed price, the labor categories proposed (with the hourly rates for each), and any applicable travel and other direct costs. Federal Acquisition

Regulation 8.4 provides procedures for the acquisition of services using GSA schedule contracts.

How to place an order based on the GSA Schedule hourly rates

Step 1. Develop a Statement of Work (SOW) In the SOW, include the following information:

Work to be performed, Location of work, Period of performance;

Deliverable schedule, and

Special standards and any special requirements, where applicable.

Step 2. Select Contractor and Place Order

If the order is at or below the micro-purchase threshold, select the contractor best suited for your needs and place the order.

If the order is exceeding but less than the maximum order threshold (MOT), prepare an RFQ;

If the order is in excess of the MOT, prepare an RFQ. Consider expansion of competition and seek price reductions.

Step 3. Prepare a Request for Quote (RFQ)

Include the SOW and evaluation criteria;

Request fixed price, ceiling price, or, if not possible, labor hour or time and materials order;

If preferred, request a performance plan from contractors and information on past experience; and include information on the basis for selection.

May be posted on GSA’s electronic RFQ system, e-Buy

Step 4. Provide RFQ to at least Three Contractors

Step 5. Evaluate Offers, Select Best Value Contractor, and Place Order

BLANKET PURCHASE AGREEMENTS

Ordering activities may establish blanket purchase agreements under any GSA schedule contract. A GSA schedule blanket purchase agreement simplifies the filling of recurring needs for supplies or services, while leveraging a customer’s buying power by taking advantage of quantity discounts, thus saving administrative time and reducing paperwork.

Blanket purchase agreements are established in accordance with the procedures in Federal Acquisition Regulation Part

8.405-3. An ordering activity may request a price reduction based on the total estimated volume of the blanket purchase agreement, regardless of the size of individual orders. Blanket purchase agreements may be established with one or

Page | 9 more scheduled contractors at the discretion of the ordering activity. When establishing multiple blanket purchase agreements, the ordering activity must specify the procedures for placing orders under the blanket purchase agreements. A

GSA schedule blanket purchase agreement should not exceed five years in length, but may do so to meet program requirements. A blanket purchase agreement may extend beyond the current term of its GSA schedule contract, so long as there are option periods in the GSA schedule contract that, if exercised, will cover the blanket purchase agreement’s period of performance.

HOW TO ORDER FROM A BLANKET PURCHASE AGREEMENT

Information contained on page 28 will assist ordering agency offices understand how to utilize Blanket Purchase Agreements

(BPAs) under the GSA Federal Supply Schedule contracts. Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPAs) are a simplified method of filling anticipated repetitive needs for services and products. BPAs are "charge accounts" that ordering offices establish with

GSA Schedule contractors to provide themselves with an easy ordering tool. In accordance with Federal Acquisition

Regulation (FAR) 8.404, ordering offices may establish BPAs under any GSA Schedule contract.

Single BPA

Generally, a single BPA should be established when the ordering office can define the tasks to be ordered under the BPA and establish a firm fixed price or ceiling price for individual tasks or services to be ordered. When this occurs, authorized users may place the order directly under the established BPA when the need for service arises. The Schedule Contractor who represents the best value and results in the lowest overall cost alternative to meet the agency‘s needs should be awarded the BPA.

Multiple BPAs

When the ordering office determines multiple BPAs are needed to meet its requirements, the ordering office should determine which contractors can meet any technical qualifications before establishing the BPAs. When multiple BPAs are established, the authorized users must follow the procedure in 2.1.2 above, and then place the order with the Schedule

Contractor who represents the best value and results in the lowest overall cost alternative to meet the agency‘s needs.

Ordering offices shall also review BPAs periodically. Such reviews shall be conducted at least annually. The purpose of the review is to determine whether the BPA still represents the best value (considering price, special qualifications, etc.)

and results in the lowest overall cost alternative to meet the agency‘s needs.

BPAs shall not extend beyond the end of the contract period; all services and deliveries shall be made and the contract terms and conditions shall continue in effect until the completion of the order. Orders for tasks that extend beyond the fiscal year for which funds are available shall include Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 52.232-19 Availability of Funds for the Next Fiscal Year. The purchase order shall specify the availability of funds and the period for which funds are available.

The ordering office should give preference to small business concerns when two or more contractors can provide the services at the same firm fixed price or ceiling price.

When the ordering office‘s requirement involves products as well as Facilities Maintenance and Management Services, the ordering office should total the prices for the products and the firm fixed price for the services, and select the

Schedule Contractor that represents the greatest value in terms of meeting the agency‘s total needs.

Page | 10

The ordering office should, at a minimum, document orders by identifying Pepco Energy Services Inc. as the source from which the services were purchased, and listing the services purchased and the amount paid. If other than a firm fixed-price order is placed, such documentation should include the basis for the determination to use a labor-hour, or time-and-materials order. For agency requirements in excess of the micropurchase threshold, the order file should document the evaluation of Schedule Contractors‘ proposals that formed the basis for selecting the Schedule Contractor that received the order and the rationale for any trade-offs made in making the selection.

For Supplies and Services Not Requiring a SOW

Survey at least three Schedule contractors through the GSA Advantage!® online shopping service or review the catalogs or pricelists of at least three Schedule contractors (more if over $200,000) pricelists (the GSA Advantage! ® online shopping service may be used to facilitate this review and seek additional price reductions where appropriate; evaluate;

and make a best value selection.

For Services requiring a Statement of Work (SOW)

To summarize the process for ordering Facilities Maintenance and Management Services, the government agency:

1. Prepares a request for quotation that includes:

A performance-based statement of work that outlines the work to be performed.

Type of task order – time and material or firm fixed price.

Basis to be used for contractor selection (best value, etc.).

2. Transmits the request for quotations to contractors:

Selects at least three (more if task order value is more than $1 million) qualified contractors on the schedule.

Note: Department of Defense agencies need to refer to DFAR 208.4 when ordering services over $100,000 using the GSA schedules.

Sends requests for quotations to selected contractors. GSA’s e-buy provides ordering agencies a streamlined, Web-based system for ordering services using the GSA schedules.

3. Evaluates quotes and selects the contractor to receive the order:

Evaluates responses based on the factors identified in the requests for quotations.

Places the order directly with the schedule contractor that represents the best value and results in the lowest overall cost alternative, considering price, special qualifications, administrative costs, and so forth.

The requesting government agency’s contracting office directly issues the task order to the selected contractor without

GSA involvement in the procurement process. All task order reporting requirements and remission of fees to GSA are the responsibility of the contractor.

Establishment of Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) BPAs for recurring services is permitted (FAR 8.404) when the procedures outlined herein are followed. All BPAs for services must define the services that may be ordered under the BPA, along with delivery or performance time frames, billing procedures, etc. The potential volume of orders under BPAs, regardless of the size of individual orders, may offer the ordering office the opportunity to secure volume discounts.

When establishing BPAs, ordering offices shall inform contractors in the RFP (based on the agency‘s requirement) whether a single BPA or multiple BPAs will be established, and indicate the basis that will be used for selecting the

Schedule Contractor to be awarded the BPAs.

Page | 11

For orders of supplies and/or services below $3,000

Place the order with any Schedule contractor that can meet the agency's needs. Though not required to solicit from a specific number of Schedule contractors, ordering activities should attempt to distribute orders among contractors (FAR

8.405).

ORDERS EXCEEDING THE MAXIMUM ORDER THRESHOLD (MOT)

All GSA MAS contracts contain a price point called a maximum order threshold. This threshold is not a ceiling on an order size; rather, it is a point where the ordering agency needs to consider additional contractors (more than three) and seek discounts from the listed catalog rates.

When placing an order that exceeds the maximum order threshold, ordering offices shall follow the standard ordering procedures, and the following additional procedures:

1. Consider additional schedule contractors (more than three)

2. Seek price reductions from the schedule contractor(s) offering the best value (considering price and other factors)

3. Selected contractor(s) may choose to offer a lower price for the requirement (the price reduction clause is not applicable to orders placed over the maximum order threshold)

4. After price reductions have been sought, place the order with the schedule contractor that provides the best value and results in the lowest overall cost alternative. If further price reductions are not offered, an order may still be placed, if the ordering office determines that it is appropriate.

PURCHASE OF INCIDENTIAL, NON-SCHEDULE ITEMS

For administrative convenience, open market (non-contract) items may be added to an FSS BPA or an individual order, provided the items are clearly labeled as such on the order, all applicable regulations have been followed, and price reasonableness has been determined by the ordering activity for the open market (non-contract) items.

SECTION 508 COMPLIANCE

Section 508 requirements will be addressed on a case-by-case basis for individual Delivery Orders and/or BPAs. In the event Section 508 applies to individual Delivery Orders or BPAs, and no exception is present in the Delivery Order or BPA solicitation, the Delivery Order or BPA shall specify the ordering agency‘s compliance strategy (selection of technical performance standards/requirements and/or technologies to be used, based upon the agency‘s market research), as provided for under the Rehabilitation Act and FAR Final Rule, in order for Pepco Energy Services Inc. to appropriately develop and cost a technical approach that is responsive to Section 508 requirements of the individual Delivery Order or

BPA. The Electronic and Information Technology (EIT) standard can be found at www.Section508.gov.

CONTRACTOR TEAMING ARANGEMENTS

Contractor Team Arrangements are encouraged under the Federal Supply Schedules Program. Under a Contractor Team

Arrangement (CTA), two or more GSA Schedule contractors work together, by complementing each other’s capabilities, http://www.section508.gov/

Page | 12 to offer a total solution to meet an ordering activity’s requirement rather than ordering activity making separate buys for each part of a requirement. The CTA combines the supplies and/or services from the team members’ separate GSA

Schedule contracts. It permits contractors to compete for orders for which they may not independently qualify. A customer benefits from a CTA by buying a solution rather than making separate buys from various contractors.

Contractor Team Arrangements provide a "win-win" situation for both GSA Schedule contractors and ordering activities.

For additional information see FAR 9.6 and “Contractor Team Arrangements” at the GSA website http://www.gsa.gov under “Acquisition Solutions”, click on “GSA Schedules”, click on “Contractor Team Arrangements” or contact the Pepco

Energy Program Director.

SECURITY REQUIREMENTS

In the event security requirements are necessary, the ordering activities may incorporate, in their Delivery Orders, a security clause in accordance with current laws, regulations, and individual agency policy; however, the burden of administering the security requirements shall be with the ordering agency. If any costs are incurred as a result of the inclusion of security requirements, such costs will not exceed $100,000 or 10 percent of the total dollar value of the order, whichever is less.

PERFORMANCE OF SERVICES

Pepco Energy Services Inc. shall commence performance of services on the date agreed to by Pepco Energy Services Inc.

and the ordering office.

Pepco Energy Services Inc. agrees to render services only during normal working hours, unless otherwise agreed to by

Pepco Energy Services Inc. and the ordering office.

Pepco Energy Services Inc. guarantees the satisfactory completion of the Facilities Maintenance and Management

Services performed under the Task Order and that all contract personnel used in the performance of Facilities

Maintenance and Management Services under the Task Order shall have the education, experience, and expertise as stated in the task order.
