ARTICLE B.3 GENERAL SCOPE

The Contractor shall perform maintenance repair, improvement, and marking for paved asphalt and concrete surfaces at NIH. Reference Article C.4 of the contract for locations.

ARTICLE B.4. CLINS STRUCTURE

There are seven (7) Contract Line Item Numbers (hence forth called CLIN/s) in the Pavement Maintenance Services Contract for the total of all maintenance repair, improvement, and marking of paved surfaces. CLIN one (1) is for maintenance repair and improvement of asphalt paved surfaces. CLIN two (2) is for maintenance repair and improvement of concrete surfaces. CLIN three (3) is for marking of paved surfaces. CLIN four (4) is for miscellaneous pavement maintenance work. CLIN five (5) is for inspections to identify needed pavement repair projects. CLIN six (6) is for emergency service call pavement maintenance work. CLIN seven (7) is for the Task Order pricing of petroleum based asphalt products used for asphalt pavement work. The use of CLIN seven (7) will reduce the level of risk to the Government and to the Contractor when projecting the cost of and when pricing petroleum products in an unpredictable and a volatile petroleum market place.

Because the NIH Task Order work will be performed in Maryland, pricing for asphalt petroleum products to be used in proposals for the performance of each Task Order will be taken from the most recent prior month pricing index from the Maryland State Highway Administration (MDSHA) regulations standard specification book, 504.04.01 ( http:// www.roads.maryland.gov/OHD/part3.pdf) (Part III Technical Requirement).

NOTE: Pricing for petroleum based asphalt products in CLIN 7 shall only be submitted within proposals for specific identified Task Orders and shall not be submitted in the CLIN 7 lines for the Base and four (4) Option Years of this solicitation document.

There are sub-CLINs within CLINs to identify the various type maintenance services within the major CLIN category of services. Sub-CLINs have alphabetic identities within the CLIN.

Each CLIN has a number of 1 to 5 in front of it. The front or first number represents the year of the contract. From the base year through the fourth option year of the contract, only the front number changes for each CLIN to reflect the five years of the contract from the base year through the fourth option year. The base year CLINs of the contract have a front or first number one (1); first option year CLINs have a front number two (2); second option year CLINs have a front number three (3); third option year CLINs have a front number four (4); and the last year or fourth option year has a front number five (5). Examples follow: CLIN 12 is CLIN #2 for the base year or first year (1) of the contract;

CLIN 33 is CLIN #3 for the second option year or third year of the contract (3); and CLIN 45 is CLIN #5 for the fourth option year or the fifth (5) and last year of the contract. The CLINs are structured so that charges on invoices, which shall cite the appropriate CLIN number for with each charge, can be identified to specific work for each year of the contract.

The definition of each CLIN follows below by CLIN #:

CLIN #1 is Firm Fixed Price Sub-CLIN rates for various types of asphalt work to be performed under Task Orders for pavement maintenance repair or Improvement projects.

CLIN #2 has Firm Fixed Price Sub-CLIN rates for various types of concrete work to be performed under Task Orders for pavement maintenance repair or Improvement projects.

CLIN #3 is Firm Fixed Price Sub-CLIN rates for various types of pavement marking work to be performed under Task Orders to mark and to remove marks from pavement.

CLIN #4 is Firm Fixed Price Sub-CLIN rates for miscellaneous types of pavement maintenance work to be performed under Task Orders.

CLIN #5 is Firm Fixed Price for an annual inspection to examine all paved areas to determine and report areas requiring repair with an accompanying cost estimate for each repair.

CLIN #6 is Time and Materials fixed hourly rate for emergency pavement maintenance work.

CLIN #7 is Firm Fixed Price cost for petroleum based products used in Task Orders based upon the established Maryland rate per unit of product.
