1 6.2.2 pg 11 PWS

The last sentence suggests that timekeeping should be included in the G&A.

However, ILA timekeeping for PSA and terminal services is part of the collective bargaining agreement. Shouldn't this be handled as customary with all ILA labor on a man hour basis?

Time keeping is an administrative function therefore shall be figured into the Commodity Rate.

2 Pgs 3-5 SF1449

Given that base and option years do not coincide with the ILA contract (CBA), what wage and fringe benefit rates should be used to calculate rates for each year? Most straight forward would be to use wage and fringe benefits currently in effect for all years and to apply for increases as the CBA changes become effective. Is this permissible?

For periods covered by the current CBA, use known wage rates. For periods beyond the current CBA, it will be up to the Contrctor to decide how to price their proposal.
