CONTRACTOR ACCESS FOR THE SITE VISIT AND OFFEROR’S SUBMISSION

Please follow the below instructions for accessing JEB Little Creek-Fort Story.

Accessing the Installation: On 17 April 2017, the Navy commenced a transition from the Navy Commercial Access Control System (NCACS) to the Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) credentialing for contractors, vendors, and supplier requiring access to Navy Installations in the Continental United States, Hawaii, and Guam. This transition is required to comply with various Department of Defense security and base access policies.

Individuals currently using an NCACS credential for Installation are required to switch to a DBIDS credential no later than 14 August 2017. After 14 August 2017, the NCACS credential will no longer be valid for access to Navy Installations.

NCACS users may visit the local Navy Installation Visitor Control Center to obtain a DBIDS credential.

To ensure uninterrupted Installation access, current NCACS credential holders are encouraged to shift to the DBIDS credential as soon as possible as Navy does not have the ability to extend this deadline. There are no fees incurred by the contractor, vendor, or supplier to obtain a DBIDS credential.

Additional details may be found at the Commander, Navy Installations Command website at https://www.cnic.navy.mil/om/dbids.html

For those who do not already have DBIDS badge, a one day pass will be required. Submit a one day pass request spreadsheet (Attachment C) NO LESS THAN FIVE (5) DAYS prior to the site visit date to EO3 FITZPATRICK at micayla.fitzpatrick@navy.mil.

Unlisted classifications needed for work not included within

INSTALLATION OF CONDUIT FOR CABLE 901 TO BUILDING 2083, Solicitation No.: N40085-18-R-6706

(LITTLE CREEK SITE), VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA

the scope of the classifications listed may be added after award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses (29CFR 5.5 (a) (1) (ii)).

The body of each wage determination lists the classification and wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for the cited type(s) of construction in the area covered by the wage determination. The classifications are listed in alphabetical order of "identifiers" that indicate whether the particular rate is a union rate (current union negotiated rate for local), a survey rate (weighted average rate) or a union average rate (weighted union average rate).

Union Rate Identifiers

A four letter classification abbreviation identifier enclosed in dotted lines beginning with characters other than "SU" or "UAVG" denotes that the union classification and rate were prevailing for that classification in the survey. Example:

PLUM0198-005 07/01/2014. PLUM is an abbreviation identifier of the union which prevailed in the survey for this classification, which in this example would be Plumbers. 0198 indicates the local union number or district council number where applicable, i.e., Plumbers Local 0198. The next number, 005 in the example, is an internal number used in processing the wage determination. 07/01/2014 is the effective date of the most current negotiated rate, which in this example is July 1, 2014.

Union prevailing wage rates are updated to reflect all rate changes in the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) governing this classification and rate.

Survey Rate Identifiers

Classifications listed under the "SU" identifier indicate that no one rate prevailed for this classification in the survey and the published rate is derived by computing a weighted average rate based on all the rates reported in the survey for that classification. As this weighted average rate includes all rates reported in the survey, it may include both union and non-union rates. Example: SULA2012-007 5/13/2014. SU indicates the rates are survey rates based on a weighted average calculation of rates and are not majority rates. LA indicates the State of Louisiana. 2012 is the year of survey on which these classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the

INSTALLATION OF CONDUIT FOR CABLE 901 TO BUILDING 2083, Solicitation No.: N40085-18-R-6706

(LITTLE CREEK SITE), VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA

wage determination. 5/13/2014 indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier.

Survey wage rates are not updated and remain in effect until a new survey is conducted.

Union Average Rate Identifiers

Classification(s) listed under the UAVG identifier indicate that no single majority rate prevailed for those classifications; however, 100% of the data reported for the classifications was union data. EXAMPLE: UAVG-OH-0010 08/29/2014. UAVG indicates that the rate is a weighted union average rate. OH indicates the state. The next number, 0010 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. 08/29/2014 indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier.

A UAVG rate will be updated once a year, usually in January of each year, to reflect a weighted average of the current negotiated/CBA rate of the union locals from which the rate is based.

WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS

1.) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can be:

* an existing published wage determination

* a survey underlying a wage determination

* a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a position on a wage determination matter

* a conformance (additional classification and rate) ruling

On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests for summaries of surveys, should be with the Wage and Hour Regional Office for the area in which the survey was conducted because those Regional Offices have responsibility for the Davis-Bacon survey program. If the response from this initial contact is not satisfactory, then the process described in 2.)

and 3.) should be followed.

With regard to any other matter not yet ripe for the formal process described here, initial contact should be with the Branch of Construction Wage Determinations. Write to:
