Minimum and Maximum Quantities:
As referred to in paragraph (b) of the
"Indefinite Quantities" clause of this contract, the total contract minimum quantity is a total of
$100,000.00 worth of orders at the contract unit price(s). This minimum guarantee will be de-obligated from the resultant contract once a task order or task orders is/are issued with a value of $100,000.00 or greater through which the minimum guarantee will then be satisfied. The contractor can only invoice for the minimum guarantee as applied at the resultant contract level if task orders are never issued against the resultant contract and only at the end of the contract's period of performance (i.e. May 31, 2017). If task orders are issued, but do not amount to a value of $100,000.00, the contractor can invoice for the minimum guarantee minus the total value of the task orders issued under the resultant contract at the end of the resultant contract's period of performance (i.e. May 31, Continued ...

The following is an addendum to HSAR 3052.204-71, Contractor Employee Access (JUN 2006):
Policy/Contract Language:
Contractors requiring access to Government facilities or access to sensitive but unclassified information and/or logical access to Information Technology (IT) resources shall verify minimal fitness requirements for all persons/candidates designated for employment under any Department of Homeland Security (DHS) contract by pre-screening the person/candidate prior to submitting their name for consideration to work on the contract. Pre-screening the candidate ensures that minimum fitness requirements are considered and mitigates the burden of DHS having to conduct background investigations on objectionale candidates. The Contractor shall submit only those candidates that have not had a felony conviction within the past 36 months, illegal drug use within the past 12 months, or misconduct such as criminal activity on the job relating to fraud or theft within the past 12 months from the date of submission of their name as a candidate to perform work under this contract. Pre-screening shall be conducted within 15 days after contract award. The fitness determination does not impact the candidate's fitness for employment with your Continued ...

firm on other assignments unrelated to this contract. This requirement shall be placed in all subcontracts if the subcontractor requires routine physical access, access to sensitive but unclassified information, and/or logical access to IT resources. Failure to comply with the pre-screening requirement will result in the Contracting Officer taking the appropriate remedy (i.e., recording non-compliance into the Past Performance Database, contract termination).
Definition(s):
Logical access means providing an authorized user the ability to access one or more computer system resources such as a workstation, network, application or database through automated tools.
A logical access control system (LACS)requires validation of an individual's identity through some mechanism such as a personal identification number (PIN), card, username and password, biometric, or other token. The system has the capability to assign different access privileges to different persons depending on their roles and responsibilities in an organization.
Questions related to this solicitation shall be directed to Debby Abraham via e-mail at Debby.Abraham@dhs.gov. Please wait until the issuance of Amendment 0001 before submitting any questions as the Government will provide additional information via this amendment (e.g.
seniority list, etc.).

August 2010 https://www.acquisition.gov/far/current/html/Subpart 32_8.html#wp1029202 http://www.ccr.gov/ labor hour with hourly rates. Resultant task orders under this contract will be Firm-Fixed price with the exception of TAS task orders.
03. MAXIMUM QUANTITIES
a. The contract maximum is the total awarded price, inclusive of all optional ordering periods (to include the 6 month option available under FAR 52.217-8). The contract maximum is considered to be the “ceiling” price.
b. The Schedule of Supplies/Services and Prices (i.e. the Schedule) sets forth the maximum quantity of months that the Government may order per each stated ordering period. The monthly prices established in the Schedule are predicated on the post exhibit.
The Government reserves the right to order up to the maximum quantities set forth in the Schedule. If a need for the addition of new posts/buildings/location and/or expansion of duty hours at existing posts arises, these changes will be negotiated in accordance with
FAR 52.212-4.
c. Each task order issued under this contract will be issued for the actual known service requirements at that time, will be accompanied by a Post Coverage Exhibit and will set forth a ceiling price in the task order Schedule. Task orders for Temporary Additional Services (CLINs 0005-0008 and CLINS 0805-0808) will be subject to the labor hour provisions found at FAR 52.212-4 (Alternate 1). Contractors will be paid only for services ordered and performed at the established monthly rates as contained in the task orders. The cumulative total of all orders issued under the contract shall not exceed the contract maximum price and/or maximum quantities unless and until the Contracting Officer notifies the contractor in writing that the contract maximum price has been increased and specifies in the notice a revised maximum price that shall constitute the maximum price for performance under this contract.
04. PRICES
A. Department of Labor (DOL) Wage Determination (WD) and/ or Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA)
1. The minimum wage rates and fringe benefits applicable to the Contract are outlined in the Department of Labor (DOL) prevailing wage determinations and/or Collective Bargaining Agreements (CBAs) incorporated into the Contract.
2. The applicable job classification under a DOL prevailing wage determination is Guard II. In the case of a CBA wage determination, the applicable job classification may be specified under a different title. In either case, the applicable job classification reflects the minimum wage rates and fringe benefits that the Contractor must pay to all employees working under the Contract.
3. The attached Collective Bargaining Agreements (CBAs) are herewith incorporated into the contract and only those provisions recognized as allowable wages or fringe benefits under the terms of the Service Contract Act, as incorporated into the contract under FAR Clause 52.222-43, will be subject to adjustment when applicable. Incorporation of the CBAs does not authorize price adjustment of all economic terms established in the CBAs and is limited only to allowable wages and fringe benefits under the Service Contract Act.
B. Contingency Pricing
1. Contractors shall not include contingency allowances to cover increased costs for which adjustments are provided under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Clause 52.222-43 – Fair Labor Standards Act and Service Contract Act – Price Adjustments (Multiple Year and Option Contracts)(Sept. 2009).
2. In addition to increases to wages and fringe benefits prescribed by a revised wage determination, including fringe benefits specifically called out in a collective bargaining agreement, FPS may consider increases to other direct costs brought about by the contractor’s cost of compliance with the terms of a revised wage determination (e.g. state gross receipts tax). Any price adjustment request associated with such other direct cost(s) must be supported by documentation demonstrating that a contingency covering an increase to the subject cost(s) was not included in the contractor’s price proposal accepted by the Government at time of award.
3. For cost/price factors that are subject to variation, but are not subject to adjustment under the provisions above, contractors may factor in contingency allowances.
Note: Increases to Supervisor wages and benefits are not subject to contract price adjustment in the subsequent ordering period periods under FAR 52.222-43(d), unless the Supervisory position is expressly covered under a Collective Bargaining Agreement or DOL Wage Determination. For Supervisor positions that are not subject to contract adjustment under FAR 52.222-43(d), the contractor is permitted to include a reasonable escalation in the outyears, based on the labor market in the geographical area that the effort will be performed.
C. Definitions
1. Basic Services – Basic services are the permanent ongoing services specifically included in the task order(s) at time of award or added through modification up to any established maximums identified in the contract. The Government shall order these services using the Basic Services Rates specified in the Schedule of Supplies/Services and Prices.
2. Temporary Additional Services - During the term of the contract, the Government may have requirements for temporary additional services (TAS) beyond the basic services requirements. TAS are the short term, non-recurring needs for service such as an increase in hours to an existing or subsequently added post to include the weekend where a public demonstration is taking place over the weekend, addition of posts to provide for increased security for special events or high profile visitors to the building, extension of existing post hours in a building to cover seasonal fluctuations (such as at an IRS building during tax season),etc. Should a continuing need for additional service arise, a contract modification will be issued by the government to provide for those services as permanent post locations.
In the event anyone other than the Contracting Office or FPS COTR contacts the
Contractor to request TAS under this contract, the Contractor shall not proceed with the request but shall notify the FPS COTR and Contracting Officer immediately. Contractors who perform services without proper authorization from the Contracting Officer or FPS COTR shall not be reimbursed for such services.
III. PACKING AND MARKING
01. PAYMENT OF POSTAGE AND FEES
All postage and fees related to submitting information, including forms, reports, etc., to the Contracting Officer or the Contracting Officer's Technical Representative shall be paid by the Contractor.
02. MARKING

Technical Representative shall clearly indicate the contract and task order number for which the information is being submitted.
IV. INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE
01. CONTRACTOR'S RESPONSIBILITY
The Contractor shall provide for all day-to-day supervision, inspection and monitoring of all work performed to ensure compliance with the contract requirements. The results of inspections conducted shall be documented in an inspection report for submission to the Government. The Contractor shall follow through to assure that all Government and Contractor identified defects or omissions in the contract requirements are corrected.
V. DELIVERIES OR PERFORMANCE
01. TERM OF CONTRACT
The full term of the contract will be up to five (5) years. The start and end dates for the ordering period(s) will be defined within the resultant contract. Applicable periods of performance will be established in resultant task orders.
02. OPTION TO EXTEND SERVICES BEYOND THE TERM OF THE CONTRACT
If it is determined by the Government that award of a successor contract cannot be made to start immediately after the end of the last optional ordering period, the Government shall have the unilateral option of extending the services of this contract for an additional six (6) months beyond the last optional ordering period in accordance with FAR 52.217-
8. The price associated with the potential need to exercise the option under FAR 52.217-8 shall be evaluated. Using the Pricing Schedule, the Contractor shall submit monthly prices and extended prices (e.g. Monthly Price x Estimated Quantity) for the line items entitled, “6 Month Extension Period Pursuant to FAR 52.217-8” under Basic Services and TAS. The Government will determine whether the price, inclusive of all options (including the options available under FAR 52.217-8), is fair and reasonable, and whether the price of the base period and all option periods (including the option(s) represented by FAR 52.217-8), in combination with the other evaluation factors specified in the solicitation, represents the best value to the Government.”
VI. CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION DATA
01. SUBMISSION OF INVOICES – Invoices shall be submitted for payment within 30 days after completion of the prior month’s services. Invoices shall be submitted via one of the following three methods:
A. By mail:
NPPD-FPS-Region 11
DHS, NPPD
Burlington Finance Center P.O. Box 1279 Williston, VT 05495-1279 Attn: FPS Region 11 Invoice
B. By facsimile (fax): (include a cover sheet with point of contact & # of pages)
802-288-7658
C. By e-mail:
NPPDInvoice.Consolidation@dhs.gov
Invoices submitted by other than these three methods will not be processed and will be returned. In addition to the information required for a proper invoice as identified in FAR 52.212-4 (g)(1), Contract Terms and Conditions – Commercial Items, (JUNE 2010), the contractor shall annotate “FPS Region 11” on the face of each invoice. Contractors shall submit only one invoice per contract per month unless otherwise authorized by the Contracting Officer. Failure to comply with these submission requirements will result in rejection of the invoice.
02. PAYMENTS
A. Payment will be made on a calendar month basis in arrears upon submission of an invoice. Payment will be due on the 30th calendar day after receipt of a proper invoice or date of receipt of services, whichever is later.
B. It is the objective of the Government to obtain complete and satisfactory performance in accordance with the terms of specifications and requirements of this contract. The criteria for deductions and adjustments below will be used by the Government in determining monetary deductions for nonperformance of work under this contract and for adjustments for deficiencies in the performance of work. In no event shall contractor mailto:Invoice.Consolidation@dhs.gov invoice or the Government be obligated to pay for any hours in excess of the amount identified within the contract (inclusive of all modifications).
C. The Contractor is responsible for submitting accurate invoices that reflect the actual services provided each month. Where there are variances between the requirements cited in the task order(s) and the work actually performed (e.g., unmanned posts), the Contractor shall attach a separate sheet to the invoice detailing each instance of a variance. Repeated substantiated errors in invoicing may adversely affect the performance assessments assigned during the pendency of the contract. Submission of false invoices shall be subject to contractual and legal actions.
D. To verify the monthly payment for productive man-hours, the Contracting Officer’s designated representative may compare the labor-hours required in the task order with the DHS Form 139, Record of Time of Arrival and Departure from Buildings, or other approved sign-in/sign-out form. The Government may perform a 100% comparison or sampled comparison to verify the accuracy of the Contractor’s invoice. The Government will only pay for services actually rendered by the Contractor and funded on the task order. If variances are noted between the invoice and the DHS Form 139, the Government will propose a price deduction. For example, if the task order required that a post be manned for 12 hours, and the Contractor billed for 12 hours, but the DHS Form 139 shows that post was manned for 10 hours, the 10 hours will prevail and the Government will deduct the difference.
Any inquiries regarding payment shall be directed to the COTR and/or CO.
03. ADJUSTING PAYMENTS FOR CONTRACTOR PERFORMANCE
A. Deductions for Failure to Provide Man-hours
1. To compute deductions the Contracting Officer's Representative will compare the amount reported by the Contractor through the Post Tracking System (PTS)(PTS is further defined in the SOW), with the DHS Form 139, Record of Time of Arrival and Departure from Buildings, or other approved Sign-in/Sign-out methods.
2. In the event the Contractor reports more hours than are reflected in PTS, on the DHS Form 139, or any other approved Sign-in/Sign-out method, the approved method will prevail. For example: If the weekly report submitted by the Contractor indicates that an employee worked 8 hours and the sign-in/sign-out form shows that employee as having been in the building 5 hours, the 5 hours will prevail and a deduction will be taken for the 3 hours not furnished. In the event the Contractor, for any reason whatsoever, fails to provide the manpower specified for labor, deductions will be made at the rate of $100.00 per hour.
3. The Government may also assess price deductions in the amount of $50.00 per hour for each post hour where services are not rendered accordance to the provisions of the contract (e.g. PSO on post but not properly equipped, certified or licensed).
4. Use of deductions does not preclude the use of any other remedies. The Government reserves all contractual rights and remedies. Nothing in this section shall be read to allow the contractor to knowingly fail to provide the manpower specified for labor and/or render services that are not in accordance to the provisions of the contract.
B. Contractor Use of DHS Form 139, or Approved Alternate
1. If the Contractor uses DHS Form 139 (Record of Time of Arrival/Departure from Facility) the Contractor will retrieve the forms from each post and submit the reports for the previous week to the COTR every Monday by 10:00 am or as otherwise directed by the COTR. The Contractor shall incorporate and certify that the data contained on the approved sign-in form is accurate, complete and in agreement with the hours presented on their invoice. (Facsimile copies of completed DHS Form 139’s may not be used for this purpose.)
