FIXED FEE: $*. The Government shall make payment to the Contractor when requested as work progresses, but no more frequently than biweekly, on account of the fixed fee, equal to ** percent of the amounts invoiced by the Contractor under the “Allowable Cost and Payment” clause hereof for the related period, subject to the withholding provisions of paragraph (b) of the “Fixed Fee” clause. In the event of discontinuance of the work in accordance with clause of this contract entitled “Limitation of ***,” the fixed fee shall be redetermined by mutual agreement equitably to reflect the diminution of the work performed; the amount by which such fixed fee is less than, or exceeds payments previously made on account of fee, shall be paid, or repaid by, the Contractor, as the case may be.

*To be determined at the task order level.

**Percentage rate of fee established in the task order.

***”Cost” or “Funds” as appropriate; will be determined at the task order level.

(End of clause)

5252.216-9201 PAYMENT OF FIXED FEE BASED ON STAFF-HOURS (TERM TYPE) (NOV 2003)

The fixed fee for work performed under this contract is $ * that not less than * staff-hours of direct labor are so employed on such work by the Contractor. If substantially less than ** staff-hours of direct labor are so employed for such work, the fixed fee shall be equitably reduced to reflect the reduction of work. The Government shall make payments to the Contractor when requested as work progresses, but not more frequently than biweekly, on account of the fixed fee, equal to * percent of the amounts invoiced by the Contractor under the “Allowable Cost and Payment” clause hereof for the related period, subject to the withholding provisions of paragraph (b) of the “Fixed Fee” clause provided that the total of all such payments shall not exceed eighty-five percent (85%) of the fixed fee.

Any balance of fixed fee due the contractor shall be paid to the Contractor, and any overpayment of fixed fee shall be repaid to the Government by the Contractor, or otherwise credited to the Government, at the time of final payment. ***

* To be determined at the task order level.

** Unless otherwise established at the task order level, “substantially less” is less than 95% of staff-hours. If, at the end of the task order term, the total number of hours utilized is substantially less than the estimated staff-hours of direct labor, the total fee due the contractor shall be equitably reduced so as to be in direct proportion to the number of staff-hours utilized in the same ratio of fee to the total staff-hours set forth in the task order.

*** If the Contracting Officer determines, for any reason, to adjust the number of staff-hours set forth herein above, such adjustments shall be made by written modification. In any case in which the number of staff-hours is adjusted, the fee will be increased or reduced utilizing the same percentage of fee established in the task order.

5252.216.9205 FEE DETERMINATION AND PAYMENT (INDEFINITE DELIVERY TYPE

CONTRACTS) (JULY 2009)

(a) Total Estimated Hours.

The total number of hours of direct labor (including overtime and subcontract hours), but excluding holiday, sick leave, vacation and other excused absence hours) estimated to be expended under this contract is * hours. The * direct labor hours include * uncompensated overtime labor hours.

*To be determined at the task order level.

NOTE: Hours proposed as Other Direct Costs have been excluded from total estimated hours. Throughout this clause, the use of “subcontractor” and “other direct costs” are used within the context described in the Section L provision titled “Proposal of Fixed Fee Pool on Indefinite Delivery Type Contracts.”

(b) Types of Delivery or Task Orders.

Both level-of-effort and completion type orders may be issued under this contract. The Request for Quotation issued for each delivery or task order will set forth the type of order deemed appropriate by the Government. If the Contractor disagrees with the Government’s assessment, the Ordering Officer and the contractor shall attempt to resolve the matter through the negotiation process. Failing this, the matter will be referred to the Contracting Officer. If necessary, a final decision shall be made in accordance with the FAR 52.233-1 “Disputes” clause. The Contracting Officer’s determination will govern the type of order, pending an appeal pursuant to the “Disputes” clause. The contractor will use his best efforts to work on the order until the dispute is resolved.

(c) Fee Fixed Pool.

The fixed fee pool consists of the total fixed fee of the contract AND includes the total fee to be paid to the prime contractor and all subcontractors. SUBCONTRACTOR FEE WILL NOT BE BILLED AS A SEPARATE DIRECT

COST ON THE VOUCHER SUBMITTED BY THE CONTRACTOR TO THE GOVERNMENT, BUT WILL BE

PAID TO THE SUBCONTRACTOR BY THE PRIME CONTRACTOR FROM THE FEE PER HOUR BILLED

FROM THE FIXED FEE POOL.

(d) Computation of Fee.

The fee per direct labor hour is computed by dividing the fixed fee pool by the number of estimated hours.

(e) Fee on Modifications to Term Type (Level-of-Effort) Delivery or Task Orders.

If the hours for a particular delivery or task order provide insufficient to complete performance under the order, the government may elect to increase the hours by written modification. These hours will be fee bearing at the same dollar per hour amount as in paragraph (h) below.

If the hours prove to be in excess of that necessary to complete performance under this order, the government shall decrease the hours by written modification. The fee will be reduced by the amount per hour indicated in paragraph

(h) below.

Estimated cost will be increased/decreased as applicable.

(f) Fee on Modifications to Completion Type Delivery or Task Orders.

If the task(s) required under a particular delivery or task order cannot be completed within the negotiated estimated cost (an overrun situation), the government may elect to increase the estimated cost to complete the effort with no additional fee allocation.

If the task(s) required under the order is completed and the cost is less than that negotiated (under-run), the contractor shall be entitled to full payment of the fixed fee specified in the order. Excess costs shall be de-obligated by modification to the delivery order prior to contract closeout.

(g) Modifications to the Basic Contract.

If the contracting officer determines, for any reason, to adjust the contract amount or the estimated total hours set forth above, such adjustments shall be made by contract modification. Any additional hours will be fee bearing, and the additional negotiated fee will be divided by the additional estimated hours to determine a new fee (applicable to the additional hours only). If the fee for these additional hours is different from that of the original estimated hours, these hours shall be kept separate from the original estimated total hours.

The estimated cost of the contract may be increased by written modification, if required, due to cost overruns. This increase in cost is not fee bearing and no additional hours will be added.

(h) Payment of Fee.

The Government shall pay fixed fee to the contractor on each direct labor hour performed by the contractor or subcontractor, at the rate established in the basic contract per labor hour invoiced by the contractor subject to FAR 52.216-8, Fixed Fee, referenced in Section I of this contract, provided that the total of all such payments shall not exceed eighty-five percent (85%) of the fixed fee specified under each applicable delivery or task order unless the withheld amount on a specific delivery or task order equals $100,000. Subject to FAR 52.216-8, Fixed Fee, the reserve shall not exceed 15 percent (15%) or $100,000, whichever is less. Seventy-five percent (75%) of the withheld fee shall be released when the terms of the Fixed Fee clause are satisfied and the contractor has requested such release. Up to ninety percent (90%) may be released when the terms of the Fixed Fee clause are satisfied and the contractor has requested such release. The contractor’s request must include information per delivery or task order to support compliance with the terms of release in the Fixed Fee clause. Nothing herein shall be construed to alter or waive any of the rights or obligations of either party pursuant to the FAR 52.232-20 “Limitation of Cost” or FAR 52.232-22 “Limitation of Funds” clauses, either of which is incorporated herein by reference, shall apply to all individual delivery or task orders issued under this contract.

To be determined at the task order level.

NOTE: The fee shall be paid to the prime contractor at the per hour rate specified in this paragraph regardless of whether the contractor or subcontractor is performing the work.

(i) Administration.

Each hour authorized under the original delivery or task order is fee bearing and will be deducted from the estimated total hours under the contract.

Hours added by modification to level-of-effort orders are fee bearing and will be deducted from the estimated total hours.

Hours deleted by modification from a level-of-effort order are available for award on new or existing orders. These hours shall be ordered at the same amount of fee per hour as originally ordered.

There are no hours applicable to overrun costs added by modification to completion type orders. Therefore, overruns are not fee bearing and no hours will be deducted from the estimated total hours.

Hours applicable to change in scope modifications to completion type orders are fee bearing and are deducted from the estimated total hours.

(j) Closeout.

Delivery or task orders will be closed out on an individual basis, upon agreement of final indirect rates for the period of performance of the applicable delivery or task order. The contractor shall forward the final voucher directly to the cognizant DCAA for final audit. DCAA will forward the voucher and the final audit to the cognizant ACO (see block 6 of the basic contract), who will process it for final payment and submit it to the paying office.
