Section SF 1449 - CONTINUATION SHEET

GENERAL INFORMATION

GENERAL INFORMATION:

1. Contract Definition

This Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) is for Electronic and Communication Services (ECS). The IDIQ MATOC awarded will be for the same or similar equipment related services (maintenance, operational, and training support) for the entire length of the contract (all option ordering periods included).

This IDIQ MATOC will fall under NAICS CODE 541519.

2. Eligibility

The Government intends to make a contract award to each “Qualifying Offeror” who proposes. “Qualifying Offeror” is defined in 10 U.S.C. 2305(a)(3)(D). The statute defines a Qualifying Offeror as an Offeror that “(i) is determined to be a responsible source; (ii) submits a proposal that conforms to the requirements of the solicitation;

and (iii) the Contracting Officer has no reason to believe would likely offer other than fair and reasonable pricing.”

The Government will exclude any Offeror who fails to meet this definition as implemented per Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) 52-212-2 (Addendum to Evaluation) Section below.

3. Total Amount of Contract

The cumulative total ceiling value of all orders placed under the IDIQ MATOC will have a ceiling value of $249M.

There is no limit to the number of task orders that may be executed against this IDIQ MATOC.

4. Guaranteed Contract Amount

The minimum guarantee for the IDIQ MATOC is $1,500. The Government will issue Task Order 0001 for Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) 0001 in the amount of $1,500 to attend a Post-Award Conference (PAC) within 10 days of MATOC award. This kickoff meeting is for award of the IDIQ MATOC only.

5. Period of Performance

The Period of Performance (PoP) for the IDIQ MATOC ECS is for ten (10) years pursuant to DFARS 217.204(e)(1). The PoP will provide for agility, flexibility, and continuity of meeting the requirements within the

ECS MATOC.

6. Pricing

No pricing shall be established at the IDIQ MATOC level pursuant to FAR FAR 15.304 (c) (1) (ii) (A) (2).

The evaluation criteria for every task order competition will consider price pursuant to FAR 16.505(b)(1)(ii)(E).

7. Cost-Reimbursement (COST) Type CLINs for Travel

All Travel will require preapproval by Government Representative. Travel COST CLIN invoice submission and approval process will be further defined at the Task Order (TO) level.

8. Task Order Procedures

Authorized Contracting Officers.

The following activity or individual(s) is/are designated as Contracting Office(s) / Officer(s): All Procuring Contracting Officers (M67854)

The above activity or individual(s) is/are responsible for issuing and administering any orders placed hereunder.

Contracting Officers may negotiate revisions/modifications to orders, but only within the scope of this contract.

Contracting Officers have no authority to modify any provision of this basic contract. Any deviation from the terms of the basic contract must be submitted to the ECS Procuring Contracting Officer for contractual action. The ECS MATOC Contracting Officer is designated as:

Name: Mr. Mark A. Muñiz Address: Program Manager Training Systems (PM TRASYS) 12211 Science Drive Orlando, FL 32826-3266 Telephone: (407) 380-4808 mark.muniz@usmc.mil

TO terms and conditions.

All TOs issued hereunder are subject to the terms and conditions of this MATOC.

Individual TOs may incorporate additional applicable clauses not incorporated in the basic ECS MATOC and will modify clauses that require fill in language into the TO. Such applicable clauses will pertain only to the individual TO and will be identified in the solicitation for that individual TO.

The basic ECS MATOC shall control in the event of conflict with any TO in its entirety, including attachments.

Ordering Procedures. All TOs shall be posted to www.beta.sam.gov, Government Point of Entry (GPE) and follow these procedures.

Upon identification of a requirement, the Government will develop the appropriate requirements documents in the form of a Statement of Work (SOW), Statement of Objectives (SOO), or Performance Work Statement (PWS).

Pursuant to FAR 16.505(b)(1), the Contracting Officer must provide each awardee a fair opportunity to be considered for each order in excess of $3,500; exception pursuant to FAR 16.505(b)(2)(i), and DFARS 216.505-70, Ordering Under Multiple Award Contracts.

Assignment of requirements as a small business set-aside or socio-econoomic category set-aside order shall be determined after market research is conducted by the TO Contracting Officer.

An Exception to Fair Opportunity (EFO) listed at FAR 16.505(b)(2), may be utilized at the TO Contracting Officer’s discretion. However, the exception to fair opportunity at FAR 16.505(b)(2)(i)(B) is not permitted to be used. IAW FAR 16.505(b)(1) and DFARS 216.505-70 task order selection will be tailored to specific project requirements and awarded IAW task order established evaluation criteria. Additionally, efforts justified under the auspices of FAR 6.302-4, International Agreement, are not permitted to be executed under the ECS MATOC.

If the requirement is identified by the Government as requiring an allowable Exception to Fair Opportunity (see above paragraph), the procedures at FAR 16.505(b)(2)(ii) shall be followed and documented in the contract file, at the Contracting Officer’s discretion, market research procedures may be followed if an Exception to Fair Opportunity has been identified.

The Government will analyze the responses from the ECS small business prime contract holders. If the Government determines that the conditions in FAR 19.502-2 exist. The Government may elect to further restrict an order to one of the appropriate socio-economic categories identified in Section 9. If it is determined that the conditions in FAR http://www.beta.sam.gov/

19.502-2 do not exist, the requirement will be open as a small business set-aside fair opportunity order amongst all ECS MATOC small business prime contract awardees.

Contracting Officers may use streamlined procedures, including oral presentations. Proposals may be requested in either written or oral format. The competition requirements in FAR Part 6 and the policies in FAR subpart 15.3 do not apply to the ordering process. All decisions regarding the procurement method and selection criteria shall be made by the TO Contracting Officer. Information regarding the type of order, award basis and selection criteria shall be provided to the awardees with each request for proposal. Proposal costs shall be unallowable as a direct cost for proposals voluntarily prepared and submitted.

For a task order competition under FAR 16.505 the Government is required to afford all IDIQ MATOC awardees a fair opportunity to submit an offer and have that offer fairly considered. Accordingly, the Government will evaluate each IDIQ MATOC awardee’s proposal fairly, and equally IAW the solicitation for the proposed awarded task order. Pre-award debriefings and pre-award notifications of exclusion prior to award are not required under FAR subpart 16.5, and the IDIQ MATOC awardees should not expect to receive them.

Once the Government has afforded all IDIQ MATOC awardees a fair opportunity to submit an offer and have that offer fairly considered for a task order competition, the Government’s selection official may engage in one or more of the following activities:

(1) Award a Task Order, even if the awardee’s evaluation identifies deficiencies or significant weaknesses;

(2) Exercise their discretion to identify specific areas of one or more offers (but not necessarily all offers) that need to be confirmed or revised, and award the task order based upon review of the confirmation(s) or revision(s);

(3) Obtain supporting price information for one or more offers (but not necessarily all offers) and award the task order;

(4) Engage one or more (but not necessarily all) offerors in one-on-one negotiations that lead to a task order award; or

(5) Not award to any offeror.

As required by FAR 16.505, the Task Order selection official will document his or her basis for award.

Where applicable, the Government will follow FAR 16.505(b) (6) for Post award Notices and Debriefing of Awardees and Unsuccessful offerors; provided, however, that if the FAR is amended during the period of performance of this contract, the Government may choose to take advantage of changes that reduce its administrative burden.

Types of TOs. The following types of TOs may be issued under this contract:

(i) Firm-fixed-price (FFP) CLINs: 0001, 0002, 1001, 1002, 2001, 2002, 3001, 3002, 4001, 4002, 5001, and 5002

(ii) Cost-Reimbursable (COST) CLINs: 0003, 1003, 2003, 3003, 4003, and 5003 (Only applicable to Travel)

In addition to any other data that may be called for in the basic MATOC, the following information shall be specified in each TO, as applicable:

• Type of order.

• Date of order.

• Contract and TO number.

• Applicable contract line item number(s) (CLINs).

• Description of the end item or service.

• DD Form 254 (Contract Security Classification) as appropriate.

• DD Form 1423 (Contract Data Requirements List).

• Place of performance.

• Contract type.

• Invoice and payment provisions to the extent not covered by the contract.

• Accounting and appropriation data.

• Delivery schedule or Period of Performance (PoP).

• Organizational Conflict of Interest provisions.

• Rights in Technical Data and Computer Software.

TO period of performance.

The period of performance for any TO may not exceed ten years from the date that the ECS basic contracts were issued.

9. Award of Task Orders on a Small Business Set-Aside Basis

The TO Contracting Officers may consider further setting aside orders for HUBZone small business awardees, service-disabled veteran-owned small business awardees, and economically disadvantaged women-owned small businesses (EDWOSB) awardees using the ordering procedures described in Section 8.

Each individual requirement will be set-aside for small business, or one of the socio-economic categories identified above. Pursuant to FAR 19.502-2(b), the assignment will be based on the TO Contracting Officer’s determination whether a reasonable expectation exists that offers from two or more responsible small business concerns would be received and those offers would be competitive in terms of market prices, quality, delivery or PoP.

Awardees of individual TOs awarded on a small business set-aside basis are required to comply with the applicable notice of set aside clause (52.219-3, 52.219-27, 52.219-29) and FAR clause 52.219-14 Limitations on Subcontracting (MAR 2020), FAR 52.219-6 (MAR 2020) and (DEVIATION 2020-O0008), which requires the contractor to agree that it will not pay more than 50 percent of the amount paid by the Government for contract performance to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities, or, in the instance of a set aside for a lower socio-economic category, the applicable notice of set aside clause (52.219-3, 52.219-27, 52.219-29)

10. Formal DOD Source Selection Procedures Do Not Apply to Task Order Competitions Conducted under the IDIQ MATOC

The Government does not want to waste its industry partners’ bid and proposal dollars or Government resources. As a result, regardless of whether the Government uses a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA), a Best Value Tradeoff approach, or a derivative thereof, the Government intends to streamline Task Order solicitations and conduct evaluations pursuant to FAR 16.505, i.e. they are expected to contain fewer proposal submission requirements, a reduced page limitation, and are not being conducted using the formal source selection procedures of FAR subpart 15.3 or DFARS subpart 215.3. However, each task order will delineate specific proposal instructions and evaluation criteria. The Government anticipates, but is not required, by the terms of this RFP, to use the adjectival ratings and definitions published in the then most current DoD Source Selection Procedures, as of the time of task order RFP release.

Due to the use of streamlined task order evaluations, the use of formal source selection procedures of FAR subpart

15.3 or DFARS subpart 215.3 is not required. Procedures such as a competitive range determination, pre-award notifications to offerors excluded from a competitive range, pre-award debriefings, oral or written discussions with all offerors within a competitive range, and requesting final proposal revisions from all offerors included within a competitive range are not required for task order competitions under the IDIQ MATOC. The identification of deficiencies and weaknesses, the Government’s questions and comments, and the offerors’ answers and responses do not and will not constitute discussions, clarifications, communications, or exchanges as used in FAR subpart 15.3.

11. Prime Contractor Subcontracting

(a) It is the Government’s desire to maintain efficient and meaningful competition among the ECS prime contractors. Practices that reduce competition, such as prime contractors entering into subcontract relationships in lieu of competing for TOs are not acceptable. The Government will consider waiving this restriction when it is clearly in the Government’s best interest. A request for a waiver with supporting details shall be presented to both the TO and ECS Contracting Officers before a proposal is submitted IAW paragraph (c) below. The TO Contracting Officer is the approval authority for waivers.

(b) ECS prime contractors do not require a waiver when entering into contractual relationships with other ECS prime contractors under the following circumstances:

(1) If the TO is a small business set-aside fair opportunity within one of the socio-economic categories, the prime may subcontract with other ECS prime contractors that do not fall within the same set aside socio-economic category;

(2) Commercial items or support may be purchased from another ECS prime contractor; Commercial item is defined as:

(1) Any item, other than real property, that is of a type customarily used by the general public or by non-governmental entities for purposes other than governmental purposes, and-

(i) Has been sold, leased, or licensed to the general public; or

(ii) Has been offered for sale, lease, or license to the general public;

(2) Any item that evolved from an item described in paragraph (1) of this definition through advances in technology or performance and that is not yet available in the commercial marketplace, but will be available in the commercial marketplace in time to satisfy the delivery requirements under a Government solicitation;

(3) Any item that would satisfy a criterion expressed in paragraphs (1) or (2) of this definition, but for-

(i) Modifications of a type customarily available in the commercial marketplace; or

(ii) Minor modifications of a type not customarily available in the commercial marketplace made to meet Federal Government requirements. Minor modifications means modifications that do not significantly alter the nongovernmental function or essential physical characteristics of an item or component, or change the purpose of a process. Factors to be considered in determining whether a modification is minor include the value and size of the modification and the comparative value and size of the final product. Dollar values and percentages may be used as guideposts, but are not conclusive evidence that a modification is minor;

(4) Any combination of items meeting the requirements of paragraphs(1), (2), (3), or (5) of this definition that are of a type customarily combined and sold in combination to the general public;

(5) Installation services, maintenance services, repair services, training services, and other services if-

(i) Such services are procured for support of an item referred to in paragraph (1), (2), (3), or (4) of this definition, regardless of whether such services are provided by the same source or at the same time as the item; and

(ii) The source of such services provides similar services contemporaneously to the general public under terms and conditions similar to those offered to the Federal Government;

(6) Services of a type offered and sold competitively in substantial quantities in the commercial marketplace based on established catalog or market prices for specific tasks performed or specific outcomes to be achieved and under standard commercial terms and conditions. For purposes of these services-

(i) "Catalog price" means a price included in a catalog, price list, schedule, or other form that is regularly maintained by the manufacturer or vendor, is either published or otherwise available for inspection by customers, and states prices at which sales are currently, or were last, made to a significant number of buyers constituting the general public; and

(ii) "Market prices" means current prices that are established in the course of ordinary trade between buyers and sellers free to bargain and that can be substantiated through competition or from sources independent of the offerors.

(7) Any item, combination of items, or service referred to in paragraphs(1) through (6) of this definition, notwithstanding the fact that the item, combination of items, or service is transferred between or among separate divisions, subsidiaries, or affiliates of a contractor; or

(8) A nondevelopmental item, if the procuring agency determines the item was developed exclusively at private expense and sold in substantial quantities, on a competitive basis, to multiple State and local governments or to multiple foreign governments.

(3) If the TO is issued pursuant to FAR 16.505(b)(2) exceptions to the fair opportunity process, excluding the exception at FAR 16.505(b)(2)(i)(B) which is not permitted for use, the prime may subcontract with other ECS prime contractors.

(c) ECS prime contractors who propose teaming arrangements with other ECS prime contractors for any scenario not covered in paragraph (b) of this section for a TO fair opportunity will be evaluated to determine whether such teaming arrangements inhibit competition. In order for the Government to evaluate whether such teaming arrangements inhibit competition, ECS prime contractors are required to (1) submit a request for waiver as early as possible in the acquisition cycle but no later than 5 calendar days after issuance of the TO solicitation, (2) provide a copy of all teaming arrangements, and (3) explain why the teaming arrangements do not inhibit competition. The documentation must include, but is not limited to: structure of the teaming arrangement, responsibilities, and liabilities; financial responsibility; managerial responsibility and accountability; and applicable legal documents.

The burden of proving that any teaming arrangement proposed does not restrict competition shall rest with the ECS prime contractors. The TO Contracting Officer will respond to waiver requests as soon as practicable. Should the Government determine that any such proposed teaming arrangements inhibit competition, (1) that determination may render the offeror’s proposal ineligible for award, and (2) the TO Contracting Office shall forward the matter to the appropriate authorities as prescribed by FAR Part 3.3, if necessary.

12. Addition of Contractors During the Life of the ECS MATOC

It is the Government's intention to maintain a competitive environment as part of the ECS contractor base. Based upon this premise, the Government reserves the right to add additional prime contractors, during “open season” as deemed necessary in order to sustain the competitive environment for awarding TOs.

On a periodic basis, the Government will make a determination whether it is necessary to add additional prime contractors. The Government’s initial assessment will be conducted no later than 12 months after the beginning of the basic ordering period of the ECS MATOC with periodic assessments made thereafter. The Government will consider the following to determine whether to re-open the competition of the ECS MATOC:

• Small business contractors merging or being acquired

• Small business contractors being unable to represent as small businesses in accordance with

FAR 52.219-28

• ECS MATOC prime contractor performance history

• Experienced levels of TO competition

• Emergence of capable firms subsequent to award of the ECS MATOC

• Any other considerations deemed to be in the Government’s best interest

Should the Government determine that it is necessary to add additional prime contractors; the re-competition will be solicited on www.beta.sam.gov, the GPE, as necessary to sustain the competitive base.

http://www.beta.sam.gov/

Pursuant to FAR Clause 52.219-28, any small business that fails to represent as an eligible small business program participant will not be eligible to submit a proposal as a prime contractor for ECS small business set-asides TOs for HUBZone small business awardees, service-disabled veteran-owned small business awardees, and economically disadvantaged women-owned small businesses (EDWOSB) awardees, subsequent to the representation. Small businesses may advise the Contracting Officer that they anticipate a change to their small business size status at any time during performance of this contract.

Any companies added to the ECS MATOC using the above procedures will be awarded the minimum guarantee at initial award as described in 52.216-22.

Any new ECS MATOC TO solicitation posted to the GPE will be subject to applicable federal procurement laws and guidance at the time the new TO solicitation is announced. The TO solicitation will provide an estimate of the number of new awards that the Contracting Officer intends to make. Any SB contractor meeting the eligibility requirements identified in the new "ramp on" solicitation may submit a proposal in response to the solicitation.

However, the Contracting Officer has the discretion to award more or fewer contracts than the number anticipated in the solicitation depending upon the quality of the offers received.

Any resulting contracts awarded under this provision will not exceed the remaining period of performance of the existing ECS MATOC. Any SB contractor receiving a contract under this open season will be eligible to compete on future TOs with the same rights and obligations of any other ECS MATOC Small Business contractor. Contracts awarded under this provision will share in the ceiling of the ERS MATOC Small Business program and the overall ceiling of the basic contract will not be increased.

If at any point during the 10-year maximum ordering period of performance the SB contractor decides that it no longer wishes to participate in the contract, then the SB contractor may submit the request to the Contracting Officer requesting termination of their contract. If the Contracting Officer accepts the SB contractor's request, the Contracting Officer will "ramp off' the SB contractor using the provision under FAR 52.249-2, Termination for the Convenience of the Government. This provision is independent of any other action permitted under the contract terms and conditions. If a "ramped off" SB contractor is currently under contract to perform under any TO, the SB contractor will be required to continue to perform under the terms of the specific task order until the period of performance is met.

13. FAR 4.1703 Reporting Requirements.

(a) Thresholds. (1) Except as exempted by OFPP guidance, service contractor reporting shall be required for contracts and first-tier subcontracts for services based on type of contract and estimated total value. For indefinite-delivery contracts, reporting shall be determined based on the type and estimated total value of each order under the contract. Indefinite-delivery contracts include, but are not limited to, contracts such as indefinite-delivery indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contracts, Federal Supply Schedule contracts (FSSs), Government wide acquisition contracts (GWACs), and multi-agency contracts.

(2) Reporting is required according to the following thresholds:

(i) All cost-reimbursement, and labor-hour service contracts and orders with an estimated total value above the simplified acquisition threshold.

(ii) All fixed-price service contracts awarded and orders issued according to the following thresholds:

(A) Awarded or issued in Fiscal Year 2014, with an estimated total value of $2.5 million or greater.

(B) Awarded or issued in Fiscal Year 2015, with an estimated total value of $1 million or greater.

(C) Awarded or issued in Fiscal Year 2016, and subsequent years, with an estimated total value of $500,000 or greater.

(3) Reporting is required for all first-tier subcontracts for services as prescribed in paragraphs (a)(2)(i) and (ii) of this section.

(b) Agency reporting responsibilities. (1) Agencies shall ensure that contractors comply with the reporting requirements of 52.204-14, Service Contract Reporting Requirements and 52.204-15, Service Contract Reporting Requirements for Indefinite-Delivery Contracts. Agencies shall review contractor reported information for reasonableness and consistency with available contract information. The agency is not required to address data for which the agency would not normally have supporting information. In the event the agency believes that revisions to the contractor reported information are warranted, the agency shall notify the contractor no later than November 15.

By November 30, the contractor shall revise the report, or document its rationale for the agency. Authorized agency officials may review the reports at www.sam.gov.

(2) Agencies are required to compile annually an inventory of service contracts performed for, or on behalf of, the agency during the prior fiscal year in order to determine the extent of the agency’s reliance on service contractors. Agencies shall submit a service contract inventory to OMB by January 15 annually. Then, each agency must post the inventory on its Web site and publish a Federal Register Notice of Availability by February 15 annually.

(3) Most of the required information is already collected in the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS).

Information not collected in FPDS will be provided by the contractor, as specified in 52.204-14, Service Contract Reporting Requirements and 52.204-15, Service Contract Reporting Requirements for Indefinite-Delivery Contracts.

14. Department of Labor Wage Rates

For individual TOs written against the contract, the applicable Department of Labor Wage Determination(s) will be provided.

15. Task Orders

Should any MATOC awardee successfully propose and win a TO, but be unable to successfully perform the requirements of the TO, the Government reserves the right to terminate the TO and the remaining work will either be offered to the next highly rated proposal from the previous competition at the rates proposed from the previous competition, or be competed again amongst MATOC awardees. However, if termination of a TO occurs, any Contractor whose order was terminated for default will not be allowed to propose in the competition held for the remaining work that was removed from that Contractor.

Orders for services or work described herein may be issued by the Contracting Officer at any time during the effective term of this contract. Except as otherwise provided in a specific TO, the Contractor shall furnish all materials and services necessary to accomplish the work specified within each TO. The provisions of this contract apply to all TOs issued and to the extent that any inconsistency between TOs and this contract might take place, this agreement shall take precedence.

16. Task Order proposals

Upon the Request for Proposal for any TO amongst MATOC awardees, Contractors will have No Less Than 10 calendar days to respond. This deadline may be extended at the discretion of the Government. Extension of a deadline, if applicable, will be provided within the RFP for individual TOs.

17. Government Property, Materials, and Equipment

The Contractor shall provide all materials as well as equipment required for assembly and placement of sets. The Contractors SHALL NOT be required to provide (or move) any permanent building structures within the training ranges. The Contractor shall utilize the existing infrastructure and that infrastructure shall remain the property of the Government. All materials used in the execution of each task order issued against this MATOC contract shall become the property of the Government. Specific Government Furnished Property provided will be listed at the Task Order level.

18. Cooperation

While it is not anticipated, there may be instances, based on awards of TOs, in which more than one MATOC awardee will be contracted to work on the same base/location. In such instances, it is the expectation of the Government for each Contractor to extend basic professional courtesy and peaceable interaction. Should an issue arise, the Government expects agreement to be reached without the assistance of the Government. Should the Government get involved and still be unable to mediate an agreement, it reserves the right to terminate one or both delivery orders. Remaining work after termination will be handled as in paragraph 15 above.

19. Performance Based Requirements

Awarded Task Orders will be Firm Fixed-Price. A task order awardee is required to meet all contract performance requirements, and if the requirements take more staffing or resources than proposed (without a change requested by the Government), the task order awardee is required to provide additional staffing or resources, at no increase in price, until all contract performance requirements are satisfactorily met.

20. Early Past Performance Submission

If early Past Performance was submitted during the Pre-Solicitation Phase, the Government requests that the industry partner not resubmit previously submitted Past Performance again with the FINAL RFP and confirm the early Past Performance submission is still valid. Contractor format of confirmation is acceptable and will not count against the total page limitation of the proposal submission.

CLIN INFORMATION

CLIN Structure Information:

All Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) within this base contract contain a nominal “Max Quantity” amount (refer to body of CLIN structure within this SF-1449 document for “Max Quantity” information). All Firm Fixed Price Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) within this base contract contain a nominal "Max Amount" or total value of $235,510,000.00. All COST CLINs within this base contract contain a nominal "Max Amount" or total value of $2,490,000.00 This is being done to facilitate administrative reporting requirements through various interfacing Government electronic reporting systems (e.g., Federal Procurement Data System - Next Generation, also known as FPDS-NG) as well as to facilitate the building of future task orders in Government contract writing software systems tied to this base Multiple Award Indefinite Delivery-Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contract vehicle (MAC or Multiple Award Contract). Of note, the nominal “Max Quantity” and "Max Amount" values tied to individual CLINs do NOT represent maximum order ceilings at the CLIN level. These MATOC line item amounts are displayed solely to support the aforementioned administrative purposes of reporting and future task order creation only. The shared ceiling value for this MATOC vehicle is $238,000,000 between all MATOC awardees, and will, unless otherwise adjusted via modification, remain in place throughout the life of this contract. Future task order amounts (in total) awarded against this base MATOC to individual MATOC awardees will be decremented from the overall $238,000,000 ceiling accordingly.

Expounding on the administrative purposes as outlined in the above, the aforementioned nominal CLIN values (“Max Quantity” and "Max Amount") within this MATOC vehicle are provided to populate Block 26 of the cover page of this SF-1449 award document (sans the value of unexercised option line items; unexercised option line items and the associated value will populate within Block 26 of the SF-1449 cover page upon exercise via future MATOC IDIQ modification). In addition, nominal CLIN values (“Max Quantity” and "Max Amount") within this IDIQ vehicle (inclusive of unexercised options) are also provided to support FPDS-NG reporting (i.e., with the corresponding FPDS-NG Contract Action Report reflecting the total MATOC IDIQ ceiling amount of $238,000,000). Thirdly, nominal CLIN values (“Max Quantity” and "Max Amount") within this IDIQ vehicle are provided in order to facilitate systemic processing of future Task Orders via Government contract writing software systems.
