CLAUSES INCORPORATED BY FULL TEXT

Section B - Supplies or Services and Prices

PART 1 - THE SCHEDULE

The contractor shall follow the instructions stated below when completing Section B:

CLIN 0001 – The contractor shall complete CLIN 0001 NET AMT, each of the fill-in items stated in the extended description, and complete Attachment J-2 – Category “A” Wis.

CLINs 0002 & 0003: Indicate the Fully-Burdended Labor Rate (FBLR) (e.g., General and Administrative (G&A), Profit, Supervision, and/or support functions) and the ODC Profit and G&A rate. These rates will be used in evaluating the contractor’s proposal and shall be the rate for pricing changes negotiated under the H-3 Clause – AGR and H-4 Clause ODC, for the duration of the contract. Changes are inherent to vessel repair contracts and should be expected by the Contractors. Offerors shall include a fully burdened labor rate to be used in negotiating changes. The rate must include all costs for negotiating changes, including but not limited to, G&A, overhead, profit, etc. The offeror shall insert rates below that it agrees to use in negotiating changes for new or additional work. These rates shall prevail throughout the duration of the contract. The number of man-hours and ODC base are estimates for evaluation purposes and the actual distribution and amounts of man-hours and ODC may be higher or lower than those stated in CLIN 0002. Any additional AGR or ODC required beyond the CLIN 0002 estimated amount may be added through contract modification using the same AGR and ODC rates agreed upon at contract award. Any unused AGR or ODC will be de-obligated from the contract at the same AGR and ODC rates agreed upon at contract award. The contractor agrees that the number of man-hours included in its proposed price for such AGR shall include only direct production man-hours. For these purposes, direct production man-hours are for skilled labor at the Journeyman level expended in direct production as exemplified by the following functions:

Direct production man-hours will not include those functions (whether charged directly or indirectly by the contractor’s accounting system) which are herein defined as support for production functions. Necessary support functions shall be considered to be included in the offeror's FBLR for direct production man-hours. Examples of support functions include:

Consumable materials are goods used in the ordinary course of work performance such as office supplies, paper, rags, vehicle or equipment fuel costs, cleaning chemicals, disposable tools, welding rods, paint buckets, paint brushes, protective clothing, etc. that are consumed/used in the process of repair and do not become an integral part of the repaired vessel. Consumable material shall be included in the contractor's fully loaded manhour rate and not separately priced.

The rates proposed for profit and G&A on CLIN 0002 and 0003 above shall be the same rates used by the contractor in its responses to the Request For Contract Change Order (CCO) Proposals issued under this contract. The KO will apply these rates to the ODCs for each CCO when it is negotiated and settled.

The base cost does not include the profit or G&A rates. Include the final figure that results when proposed profit and G&A rates are applied to the base price of the contractor’s total price for evaluation purposes.

NOTE: This does not include any material cost for Category “A” WIs. The material cost for Category “A” WIs should be included under CLIN 0001.

CLINs 0004 through 0011 – The offeror shall complete CLIN 0004 through 0011 NET AMT, each of the fill-in items, and complete Attachment J-3 – Category “B” WIs.
