10.2 CLIN 0001-Engineering Services
i (a) Direct labor costs
| Pg 109-110 | Analyst, Management II (eCraft ANM2) is listed twice in the Labor Categories and Hours per Year Teable. Management Analyst 13-1110 does not have a BLS percentile specific to this BLS code. Are we to use the Management Analyst 13-1111 for both listings? | Offerors are welcome to use the BLS information for 13-1111 for 13-1110, if they so chose as both appear to be identical. The BLS percentile for 13-1110 has been reduced to 10% from 25% to provide a better guide for what the Government is looking for. Section L and attachment J-S-1 have been revised accordingly. | |

i (a) Direct labor costs Pg 109-110 Engineer, Systems III (eCraft ESY3) is referenced to BLS Electrical Engineer 17-270. This BLS Labor category does not have a specific wage determination. Are we to use 17-2071 for wage determination and percentile? 17-270 is not a BLS category.
If a labor category is not listed on the wage determination, it means that there is no applicable wage determination that applies. Offerors are welcome to use the wage determination of 17-2071 for 17-2070, if they so chose, but the Government is not mandating its use. The respective BLS percentiles for 17-2070 and 17-2071 should be used.

| 3 | 5/4/20 | Page 113 of 128 | ii. CLIN 0002 – Installations (FFP) | RFP Content: Complete schedule for the total estimated FFP CLIN (reference the attachments in Section J of the solicitation) and complete pricing entered into Section B of the submitted SF 33. Use the Government estimated amount of $2,789,054 and apply applicable burden and profit. |
Question: The Government instructs offers to apply “burden and fee” to the Government estimated amount of $2,789,054 to complete the cost estimate for CLIN 0002. Can the Government clarify its definition of “burden”? Are offerors to assume the entire $2,789,054 should be treated as unburdened prime direct labor dollar for prime offerors to apply fringe, overhead, G&A, and fee? Please confirm no portion of the $2,789,054 should be assumed as vendor costs, with only material handling burdens applied. This is a FFP CLIN for Installations and Offerors are instructed to include applicable burden and fee to ensure they can perform the tasks required of solicitation N6339420R0008. If an Offeror believes vendor costs are necessary in order to perform on this CLIN, then those costs should be included. Burden may be different for each company depending on the company’s accounting standards. Typically, burden would be include fringe, overhead, G&A and Facilities Capital Cost of Money (FCCoM).
