Section B - Supplies or Services and Prices

B-1 ESTIMATED RATES

I. Hourly Burdened Composite Labor Rates (excluding fee) and Streamlined Ordering Procedures for CPFF Labor Term and Completion CLINs and/or Orders

(a) Hourly Burdened Composite Labor Rates (provided within the tables in paragraphs (c) through (d) below) are applicable to CLINs 0001-0012:

(1) The rates below are the Hourly Burdened Composite Labor Rates for each labor category.

i. Hourly Burdened Composite Labor Rates shall include direct labor rates plus all applicable burdens, to include indirect rates, applicable escalation, subcontractor fee on subcontractor labor, and subcontractor pass-through costs.

ii. Hourly Burdened Composite Labor Rates shall not include prime fee on prime labor, prime fee on subcontractor labor, Other Direct Costs (ODCs) such as Travel and Material, and Cost of Money costs (if proposed).

iii. The Hourly Burdened Composite Labor Rate would be the sum of both the prime and all subcontractor labor costs, as described above, for that labor category, divided by the total number of labor hours for that labor category.

(2) The Hourly Burdened Composite Labor Rates in paragraphs (c) through (d) are estimates, and invoicing will be based on actual costs incurred.

(b) Task Orders (TOs) that include CPFF Labor Term and Completion CLINs will be issued under this Contract using the following streamlined ordering procedures:

(1) For each proposed order that includes CPFF Labor Term or Completion CLINs, the Contracting Officer will provide the Contractor a TO and an Independent Government Cost Estimate (IGCE). The IGCE is an estimate of labor hours by labor category utilizing the Hourly Burdened Composite Labor Rates provided in paragraphs (c) through (d) below, to calculate the total estimated cost for the proposed CLINs and/or TO.

i. The TO fixed fee is calculated using Section G Clause 5252.232-9510 PAYMENT OF FIXED FEE

(NAVAIR).

ii. Ceiling for ODCs will be priced in accordance with the Government estimate.

iii. TOs crossing multiple years will be estimated by the Government using the Hourly Burdened Composite Labor Rates for each year in proportion to the Period of Performance (PoP) of the TO.

(2) Within three (3) working days of receipt of the TO and IGCE, the contractor shall respond:

i. If the contractor agrees that it can perform the TO within the parameters of the IGCE, they will sign and return the DD 1155 to the Contracting Officer. If the requirement remains valid, a priced order will be issued to the Contractor; or

ii. If the Contractor does not agree with the TO and/or IGCE, the Contractor shall acknowledge its disagreement within three (3) working days. Additionally, a proposal shall be submitted to the Contracting Officer within five (5) working days of receipt of the TO and IGCE, addressing only the specific areas of difference in labor categories and/or hours in the IGCE. Once the differences are resolved between the Contracting Officer and the Contractor, and the requirement remains valid, a priced order will be issued to the Contractor.

B-2 FEE

Non-Performance Based (Level of Effort (LOE)) - For non-performance based LOE tasks, the composite rates from B-1 will be used to develop the total estimated cost for the order. The fixed fee will be calculated based on fee per hour. The fee per hour is the total fee proposed for CLIN 0001 for all periods divided by the total number of CLIN 0001 LOE hours for all periods. The non-performance based fee per hour is $_[to be completed at contract award]______.

Performance Based (Completion) - For performance-based (completion) tasks, the composite rates from B-1 will be used to develop the total estimated cost. The fixed fee will be calculated based on the percentage of total fee proposed for CLIN 0007 for all periods divided by the total proposed cost of CLIN 0007 for all periods. The performance based (completion) fee percentage is _[to be completed at contract award]____%.

B-3 LABOR HOURS

CPFF Non-Performance Based/Term (CLINs 0001-0006) The Government estimate is 621,266 labor hours for the entire work effort for CPFF Non-Performance Based/Term tasking. A work year is defined as 1,920 hours exclusive of holidays and leave.

CPFF Performance Based/Completion (CLINs 0007-0012) The Government estimate is 81,077 labor hours for the entire work effort for CPFF Performance Based/Completion tasking. A work year is defined as 1,920 hours exclusive of holidays and leave.

The Government estimate (inclusive of CPFF Non-performance Based/Term and CPFF Performance Based/Completion) for the entire effort is 702,343 labor hours.

STATEMENT OF WORK

STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW)/PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS) FOR

SHIP & AIR INTEGRATED WARFARE DIVISION

MISSION SYSTEMS ENGINEERING

1.0 Scope.

As the organic Lead Systems Integrator (oLSI) for the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD), Webster Outlying Field (WOLF) operates under a product-based business model whereby WOLF civilians lead and manage the efforts of combined Government-industry teams. Using this oLSI approach, the Government maintains ownership of intellectual property and data rights, enabling WOLF to rapidly adapt solutions to the dynamic needs of the warfighter.

The NAWCAD WOLF Ship & Air Integrated Warfare (SAIW) Division, operating under the oLSI model, provides mission systems engineering support to provide requirements definition, emerging technologies identification, rapid design engineering, drawing package support, development, customization, manufacturing, fabrication, integration, Test and Evaluation (T&E), installation, certification, maintenance, upgrade, logistics, software development and In- Service Engineering Agent (ISEA) activities of new and/or existing shipboard, surface, ground-based, and airborne mission systems. The Mission Systems Engineering (MSE) support is provided in response to tasking from the Department of Defense (DoD) and other U.S Government organizations.

This Statement of Work/Performance Work Statement (SOW/PWS) will provide Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, Combat Systems, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C6ISR) systems engineering support, C6ISR integration support, and ISEA and logistics support to Mission Systems programs, systems, and technological areas within the SAIW project portfolio.

2.0 Applicable documents.

The following documents and document sources are provided for reference. The SAIW Division requirements to provide C6ISR interoperability among U.S military and U.S civilian efforts may dictate an adherence to a wide variety of specifications and standards. DoD systems shall adhere to the Joint Technical Architecture (JTA) 2.0 Standards. Non-DoD systems may be governed by numerous commercial, national, or international standards. The documents listed below are presented only as representative sources of the technological interface details that may be required during Contract performance. Likewise, the documentation listed is not all-inclusive but is representative of the type of information that may be necessary to perform the work. The document version applicable to tasking will be the most current published document at the time of Contract award.
