3. TASK ORDER PRICING

3.1 There are four separate pricing proposal methodologies for Task Orders that will be accepted on this contract. They are listed in the order of precedence, as follows:

3.1.1 Unit Price Tasks (UPT) work utilizing the pre-priced Exhibit Line Item Numbers (ELINs).

3.1.2 Pre-Priced work utilizing RS MEANS, in which some items are pre-priced using the RS MEANS

Data Costing Workbook.

3.1.3 Use of non-pre-priced items (i.e. three competitive quotes or self-performed work).

3.1.4 A combination of UPT, and/or Pre-Priced, and/or non-pre-priced items.

3.2 UPT Work is defined as indefinite delivery indefinite quantity (IDIQ) work items that includes all direct material and equipment costs, indirect costs, and profit associated with the particular unit of work. All materials and equipment (rented or owned) required for the accomplishment of a UPT shall be included within the respective exhibit line item prices in IDIQ ELIN’s. The FFP material and equipment price for the task order is determined by multiplying the exhibit line item unit prices by the quantities ordered. Labor required for UPT work is proposed using the same methodology as the pre-priced work, discussed below, but does not include the material and equipment cost. The FFP labor price for the task order is determined by multiplying the Unit Price Labor (UPL) rate (bid as an ELIN) by the estimated number of hours from RS MEANS and then multiplied by the Contractor’s coefficient factor.

3.3 Pre-Price Work is defined as labor, material, and equipment identified in RS MEANS Cost Data Books. When submitting a proposal using RS Means, items shall be identical to or a reasonable equivalent to those found within the RS MEANS Cost Data Books. Pricing will be determined by using RS MEANS Cost Data Books and the Contractor’s Coefficient factor. The Contractor shall break down the work into individual work items, selecting the applicable Bare Cost Unit Pricing for material, labor, and equipment from RS MEANS Cost Data Books. The total price is calculated by multiplying the RS MEANS Bare cost sum to the Contractor’s applicable Coefficient factor.

3.4 Non-pre-priced items are defined as construction materials, services, and work which are not listed by the RS MEANS Cost Data Books, and that have not been added to a pre-priced items list via modification to the basic contract. The Government will accept non-pre-priced work for materials or services when identical or similar items are not listed in the UPT ELINS or RS MEANS Cost Data books, or when it is deemed to be in the best interest of the Government. The Government reserves the right to request proposals based on non-pre-priced methodologies for any project. The Contractor shall determine whether to use Competitive Quotes or to self-perform the non-pre-priced Items. Non-pre-priced items are subjected to the procedures described in the paragraphs below.

3.4.1 When using Competitive Quotes for non-pre-price items, the Contractor need not have more than one quote for non-pre-priced line items under $3,000, provided that the Contractor ensures that fair and reasonable prices are obtained for services or materials. For services or materials in excess of $3,000, the Contractor will make every effort to obtain a minimum of three quotes from qualified subcontractors. Any circumstances precluding the minimum three quotes will be justified within the Contractor’s proposal. The Contractor shall submit with its proposal a copy of each proposal received as well as a detailed quote abstract reflecting the quotes received. The Contractor shall maintain complete supporting documentation (including responsibility and responsive checks) necessary to provide a complete and accurate audit trail of all actions for the Contracting Officer’s review. Upon receipt and review of the form by the Contracting Officer, a coordination meeting may be initiated with the Contractor to resolve any discrepancies. Upon satisfactory review by the Contracting Officer, the non-pre-priced work will be accepted as the negotiated price. The negotiated price shall include the fully burdened rate for labor, material, and equipment, multiplied by the appropriate coefficient for competitive quotes. The contractor shall provide the following for each Subcontractor quote for each component or task required:

3.4.1.1 Total amount for Fully Burdened Labor Hours

3.4.1.2 Total amount for Fully Burdened Material

3.4.1.3 Total amount for Fully Burdened Equipment

3.4.2 The Contractor’s proposal for self-performed non-pre-priced work will be considered for services or materials under $3,000, provided the Contractor ensures that fair and reasonable prices are obtained. For services or materials in excess of $3,000, the Contractor shall submit to the Contracting Officer a detailed quote abstract for self-performance. The Contractor shall maintain complete supporting documentation necessary to provide a complete and accurate audit trail of all actions for the Contracting Officer’s review. Upon receipt and review of the abstract by the Contracting Officer, a coordination meeting may be initiated with the Contractor to resolve any discrepancies. Upon satisfactory review by the Contracting Officer, the self-performed non-pre-priced work will be accepted as the negotiated price. The negotiated price shall include the fully burdened rate for labor, material, and equipment, multiplied by the Contractors Coefficient for Self-Performed work. When the Contractor chooses to use in-house labor for non-pre-price items, the Contractor shall provide the following for each component or task required:

3.4.2.1 Item Description

3.4.2.2 Direct Labor Hours

3.4.2.3 Description of proposed material

3.4.2.4 Number of units of material

3.4.2.5 Cost per unit of material (direct/bare costs only)

3.4.2.6 Description of proposed equipment

3.4.2.7 Time for which equipment will be required

3.4.2.8 Rental rate for equipment (direct/bare costs only)

3.5 Combination of methods: Where necessary, a proposal may combine two or three of the methods

(Unit Pricing Task, Pre-Priced, and non-pre-priced) but only to the extent that the work is not covered by the prior methods, i.e. pre-price shall not be used if the work is covered by UPT work. The final decision on what methods are acceptable will be determined by the Government.

3.6 Contractor’s Coefficients and UPT prices: Work in RS Means is generally price based average quality and average time for one unit of work. Contractors may experience efficiencies when more than one unit of work is required and as the Contractor’s workforce gains efficiencies from performing tasks repeatedly. The Contractor’s coefficient factors are numerical factor that considers the efficiencies, but also includes indirect costs that are not included as part of the RS MEANS line items. The coefficient factors for UPL and pre-priced work shall include, but is not limited to, the items listed below.

3.6.1 General and Administrative Costs, Corporate Overhead, and Field Office Overhead, including but not limited to: salaries of personnel required to operate and manage the contract, Information Technology and computer equipment required to manage the contract, off base storage facilities, offices, administrative supplies, technical engineering services, job site supervision, vehicle operations and maintenance expenses and telephone charges.

3.6.2 Proposal preparation costs, including joint scoping meetings.

3.6.3 Disposition of waste materials.

3.6.4 Daily and final site cleanup.

3.6.5 Bond Premiums.
