Subcontractors

Option X

Instructions: Subcontracts/Interorganizational Transfers – A fully disclosed cost proposal as detailed as the Offeror’s cost proposal including support documentation will be required to be submitted by all proposed subcontractors and for all interorganizational transfers over $150,000. For subcontracts and interorganizational transfers under $150,000, only a cost proposal with cost categories broken out must be provided. If options are proposed, the option periods should be separately priced. The subcontract or interorganizational transfer proposal, along with supporting documentation, must be provided either in a sealed envelope with the prime’s proposal or via email directly to the Program Officer or Contract Specialist upon request. The email should identify the prime Offeror, proposal title, and that the attached proposal is a subcontract. The subcontractor and interorganizational transfer proposals with supporting documentation must be received and reviewed before the Government can complete its cost analysis of the proposal and enter negotiations.

The prime contractor should perform and provide a cost/price analysis of each subcontractor’s cost proposal. Offerors are required to obtain competition to the maximum extent practicable when selecting subcontractors; if the offeror has obtained competitive quotes, copies should be provided. If the Offeror has selected other than the low bid for inclusion in their proposal or intends to award the subcontract on a sole-source basis, the offeror should provide rationale for their decision. For sole-sourced subcontracts, the prime contractor must provide a short sole-source justification.

Certified cost or pricing data may be required for subcontractor proposals over $2,000,000.

*Note: Federal Acquisition Regulation provision 52.215-22 (Limitations on Pass-Through Charges--Identification of Subcontract Effort) may be incorporated into this solicitation by reference. The offeror is to exclude excessive pass-through charges from subcontractors. The offeror must identify in its proposal the percentage of effort it intends to perform and the percentage to be performed by each of its proposed subcontractors. If more than 70 percent of the total effort will be performed through subcontractors, the offeror must include the additional information required by the above-cited clause.
