JITC TEC – Task Order 1 (FFP) Proposal Preparation Instructions

CLIN Structure

General Pricing Instructions

The Offeror shall provide unsanitized pricing for the base period and all following periods within the provided Pricing Templates to ensure completeness and the accurate calculation of Total Evaluated Price. See the Pricing Template Instructions below for specific pricing instructions.

• The Offeror’s pricing templates and cost/price proposal shall include the detailed cost amounts of all resources required to accomplish defined tasks where estimates have not been provided by the Government.

• For all labor pricing under the JITC TEC contract, the Offeror must use the defined JITC TEC labor categories and descriptions.

• For cost-reimbursable ODC estimates in CLIN x003, Offerors are provided a Government estimate in the Pricing Templates for travel, materials, equipment, and other ODCs. These EXACT amounts include all markups and burdens allowed by your contract and shall not be adjusted based upon independent decisions regarding actual anticipated costs. ODCs shall be authorized by the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR), in writing, prior to performance and travel will be paid IAW FAR 31.205-46.

• Pricing for all future firm fixed price (FFP) contract actions (including, but not limited to proposal and billing of future task orders, modifications) will be restricted to the labor categories and fully burdened labor rates established in their proposed Schedule of Rates— tabs ‘FFP Sch of Rates - Govt Site’ and ‘FFP Sch of Rates - Cont Site’.

• The Government will establish burdened labor rate ceilings for each of the labor categories requested based upon the burdened Government and Contractor Site labor rates proposed on the ‘FFP Sch of Rates’ tab. The schedule of FFP labor rates proposed in the JITC TEC - FFP Pricing Template will serve as not-to-exceed ceiling rates for all future Fixed Price-type contract actions (including, but not limited to proposal and billing of future task orders, modifications), and be considered the negotiated ceiling rates.

• The offeror shall provide sanitized versions of the cost/price proposal, including only information related to hours, labor categories and any additional information proposed by the offeror to aid in the Government’s review.

JITC TEC – Task Order 1 (FFP) Pricing Scenario Template Instructions

1. In Columns D-L of the tabs entitled ‘FFP Sch of Rates’, enter the proposed Firm Fixed Price (FFP) rates for the corresponding JITC TEC labor categories to be utilized during proposal and execution of all FFP actions/tasks under the JITC TEC contract.

2. Proceeding to ‘Base Yr’ tab, enter the proposed SOW task, staffing information and labor hour estimates for CLIN x002 (FFP). The use of defined JITC TEC labor categories is required to demonstrate labor estimates under this task order. This information will be provided by Offerors entering requisite information in the 'blue' shaded areas in fields for: “Enter SOW Task”, "Select JITC TEC Labor Cat. #", “Select Place of Performance”, and "Enter Proposed Labor Hours".

o The "Select JITC TEC Labor Cat. #” and “Select Place of Performance” are presented as drop down menus that will populate labor category title and proposed rate information directly from the ‘FFP Sch of Rates’ tab completed in Step 1 above.

CLIN Supplies/Services Type x001 CPFF Labor CPFF x002 FFP Labor FFP x003 Other Direct Costs Cost o The “Enter SOW Task”, and "Enter Proposed Labor Hours" cells on tabs ‘Base Yr’ through ‘OY4’ require manual Offeror input for the hours proposed

Based on the inputs detailed above, the Pricing Template will calculate total pricing for CLIN x002 and CLIN x003 will be based on ODC plug numbers.

3. Once complete with the 'Base Year’ tab proceed to complete tabs ‘OY1’ through 'OY4' in the same manner, as described in steps above.

4. After the Offeror completes tabs ‘Base Year’ through 'OY4', review the ‘TO1 (FFP) Total Price' tab to verify proposed prices and view the total yearly pricing generated by using Offeror pricing inputs, the Government's provided plug numbers for CLINs x003 and the Government’s calculation of the 6-month Extension of Services Option pricing IAW FAR 52.217-8.

o The total pricing for the “6-month Extension of Services Option” is calculated by multiplying the total price for each CLIN proposed under ‘OY4’ by 50%—representing a 6 month extension of service (50% or one-half of the ‘OY4’ period of performance) at the Offeror-proposed ‘OY4’ pricing IAW FAR 52.217-8.

5. Once complete with the pricing tasks described above, ensure you review and provide a response to each questions contained in the "Price Proposal Checklist" on the 'Checklist' tab of this workbook. Provide a final signature and date to affirm that all aspects of the checklist are complete and contained in your price proposal prior to submission.

6. The Government-calculated total proposed price for the Task Order 0001 (FFP) will be added to the Offeror-proposed pricing for the CPFF Pricing Scenario (Attachment 8) and FFP Pricing Scenario (Attachment 9), as represented in the TO1 FFP Pricing Template to arrive at the Offeror’s total evaluated price for the JITC TEC solicitation.

3. Based on the Offeror completed JITC TEC – FFP Pricing Scenario Template, the Government will apply Government estimated and possessed labor hours for all periods to each Offeror’s proposed FFP ceiling labor rates in order to calculate a total FFP Scenario price.

The FFP pricing scenario will represent the total proposed price to include the 12-month base period, three 12-month option periods, one 6-month option period, and the 6 month option to extend IAW FAR 52.217-8. The estimated labor hours used for evaluation purposes will not be provided to the offerors until award.

4. The Government-calculated total proposed price for the FFP Pricing Scenario will be added to the Offeror-proposed pricing for Task Order 1 (Attachment 7) and the CPFF Pricing Scenario (Attachment 8), as represented in the FFP Pricing Template (See ‘Total Price – FFP Scenario’ tab) to arrive at the Offeror’s total evaluated price for the JITC TEC solicitation.
