G.6 TASK ORDER PROCEDURES

(a) Issuance of Task Orders

(1) Task orders will be issued unilaterally, in writing, by the Contracting Officer, based on fixed unit price (CLINs 0002-0004 and if options exercised for CLINs 0005-0016) established under Section B.2, Consideration and Payment, during the effective period of performance above EXCEPT, final Task Orders and other supplemental agreements or changes, if any.

A Task Order will be issued unilaterally by the Contracting Officer, based on the firm-fixed price for CLIN 0001, Transition Period. Upon signature by the Contracting Officer, each Task Order is considered fully executed, binding and ready for implementation. Each Task Order will be forwarded promptly to the Contractor and shall conform to all terms and conditions of the contract. Performance under each Task Order is mandatory.

(2) Task Orders shall be consecutively numbered, reference the contract number and contract line item number (CLIN), quantity being ordered and specify the period of performance and the price.

(3) If mailed, a Task Order is considered issued when the Government deposits the order in the mail. If necessary, orders may be issued by facsimile.

(b) Electronic Task Orders

The Government anticipates electronic issuance of Task Orders under the contract. At this time, electronic signature technology is not in place. However, it is anticipated that the Government will implement such technology and, in the future, Task Orders will be issued electronically under the contract. If sent via electronic mail, a Task Order is considered issued when the Government sends the electronic order to the contractor.

(c) Distribution of Work

The requirement for the Direct Servicing Agent for the National Flood Insurance Program results in the servicing policies of insurance written directly by the Government shown in the types of policies given under Section B, B.2 Consideration and Payment, specifically CLINs 0002-0016, of this document. At the beginning of each effective period of performance, the Contracting Officer intends to issue a single Task Order for servicing the policy CLINs at the estimated quantities required for the effective period. The single Task Order issued for the estimated quantities of policies will be issued at a

Not-To-Exceed Price. The single Task Order issued for the effective period will be revised upward or downward to reflect actual servicing of the number of policies in force during the effective period. The single Task Order issued for the effective period may vary, upward or downward, from the Workload Estimates provided as Attachment 2. The

Government reserves the right to order and estimated quantity based upon known information to the Government at the time of the single Task Order issuance. In addition, the Government also reserves the right to issue additional Task

Orders during the effective period of the policy CLINs at the fixed unit price under Section B.2 Consideration and

Payment.

If, at any time during performance, but not later than 30 (thirty) days prior to exceeding the estimated quantities ordered, the Contractor has reason to believe that the number of policies in force and to be performed will exceed the estimated quantity set forth in a task order, the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer immediately. The notification to the

Contracting Officer will be in writing and provide a projection of additional quantities required to be in excess of the quantities under the task order. Performance in excess of the not-to-exceed quantity, or price, specified under the individual task orders, by CLIN, or beyond the expiration date, shall be at the Contractor’s risk.

(e) Authorized Ordering Officials

Services shall be ordered by the Contracting Officer.

(f) Payment Requests

(1) The Contractor shall invoice according to procedures stated in Section G, Clause G.2 Invoices. Invoices submitted for payment shall specify the Contract Number and Task Order Number. Payment for the Task Orders will be made on a monthly basis, the applicable fixed unit price stated in the Task Order per CLIN for each flood insurance policy contract in force, at the end of the month. The count of in force policy insurance contracts shall be taken as the same day as the Transaction Record Reporting and Processing (TRRP) Plan submission is prepared and shall be from the same source as is used for generating the TRRP Plan submission. All monthly payment for services including transition shall be made subject to review and verification.

(3) If a determination of an incentive is made by the designated Government Representative in accordance with

Attachment 3, Servicing Agent Performance Requirement Summary (PRS), the Contracting Officer may unilaterally issue a modification to adjust funding against a Task Order in the amount of the incentive.

(g) Task Order Modifications

If during the performance of any Task Order, the Government requires the increase in the number of policies being serviced under the Task Order, the Government will issue unilateral modifications. If during the performance of any Task

Order, the Government requires the decrease of the number of policies serviced, the Government will by bilateral modification reduce the quantity ordered at the fixed unit price established for the effective period in the Task Order.

Final Task Order modification, changes, or other supplemental agreements to Task Orders will be done on a bilateral basis.

The contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer’s Technical Representative upon Task Order completion.

This modification will be done bilaterally. The final task order modification may result in the deobligation of excess funds, if any, or obligation of additional funds, as required.

The Task Order will be considered closed out upon the bilateral modification and payment of a Task Order’s Final

Invoice/Voucher.
