H-216-H002 LEVEL OF EFFORT--ALTERNATE I (NAVSEA) (NOV 2022)

(a) The total level of effort for the performance of this contract is specified in Section B and includes prime and subcontractor direct labor (for those subcontractors specifically identified in the Contractor's proposal as having hours included in the proposed level of effort).

(b) Of the total man-hours of direct labor set forth in Section B, it is estimated that (Offeror to fill-in) man-hours are uncompensated effort. Uncompensated effort is defined as hours provided by personnel in excess of 40 hours per week without additional compensation for such excess work. All other effort is defined as compensated effort. If no effort is indicated in the first sentence of this paragraph, uncompensated effort performed by the Contractor shall not be counted in fulfillment of the level of effort obligations under this contract.

(c) Effort performed in fulfilling the total level of effort obligations specified in Section B shall only include effort performed in direct support of this contract and shall not include time and effort expended on such things as local travel to and from an employee's usual work location, uncompensated effort while on travel status, truncated lunch periods, work (actual or inferred) at an employee's residence or other non-work locations (except as provided in paragraph (i) below), or other time and effort which does not have a specific and direct contribution to the tasks described in Sections B and C.

(d) The level of effort for this contract shall be expended at an average rate of approximately TBD hours per week. It is understood and agreed that the rate of man-hours per week may fluctuate in pursuit of the technical objective, provided such fluctuation does not result in the use of the total man-hours of effort prior to the expiration of the term hereof, except as provided in the following paragraphs.

(e) If, during the term hereof, the Contractor finds it necessary to accelerate the expenditure of direct labor to such an extent that the total man-hours of effort specified in Section B would be used prior to the expiration of the term, the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer in writing setting forth the acceleration required; the probable benefits which would result; an offer to undertake the acceleration at no increase in the estimated cost or fee; and an offer for the additional man-hours to cover the remainder of the term to include a proposed level of effort, cost breakdown, and proposed fee, for continuation of the work until expiration of the term. The offer shall acknowledge that the additional man-hours proposed will be subject to the terms and conditions of this contract and any additions or changes required by N6660425Q0336 then current law, regulations, or directives, and that the offer, with a written notice of acceptance by the Contracting Officer, shall constitute a binding contract. The Contractor shall not accelerate any effort until receipt of a signed contract modification by the Contracting Officer. Any agreement to accelerate will be formalized by contract modification.

(f) The Contracting Officer may, by written order, direct the Contractor to accelerate the expenditure of direct labor such that the total man-hours of effort specified in Section B would be used prior to the expiration of the term. This order shall specify the acceleration required and the resulting revised term.

The Contractor shall acknowledge this order within five days of receipt.

(g) The Contractor shall provide and maintain an accounting system, determined adequate by the Administrative Contracting Officer, which collects costs incurred and effort (compensated and uncompensated, if any) provided in fulfillment of the level of effort obligations of this contract. The Contractor shall indicate on each invoice the total level of effort claimed during the period covered by the invoice, separately identifying compensated effort and uncompensated effort, if any.

(h) Within 45 days after completion of the work under each separately identified period of performance hereunder, the Contractor shall submit the following information in writing to the Contracting Officer with copies to the cognizant Contract Administration Office and to the Defense Contract Audit Agency office to which vouchers are submitted: (1) the total number of man-hours of direct labor expended during the applicable period that separately identifies compensated and uncompensated hours; (2) a breakdown of this compensated total showing the number of man-hours expended in each direct labor classification and associated direct and indirect costs; (3) a breakdown of other costs incurred; and (4) the Contractor's estimate of the total allowable cost incurred under the contract for the period. Additionally, in the case of a cost underrun the Contractor shall submit the amount by which the estimated cost of this contract may be reduced to recover excess funds. All submissions shall include subcontractor information.

(i) Unless the Contracting Officer determines that alternative worksite arrangements are detrimental to contract performance, the Contractor may perform up to 10% of the hours at an alternative worksite, provided the Contractor has a company-approved alternative worksite plan. The primary worksite is the traditional “main office” worksite. An alternative worksite means an employee’s residence or a telecommuting center. A telecommuting center is a geographically convenient office setting as an alternative to an employee’s main office. The Government reserves the right to review the Contractor’s alternative worksite plan. In the event performance becomes unacceptable, the Contractor will be prohibited from counting the hours performed at the alternative worksite in fulfilling the total level of effort obligations of the contract. Regardless of work location, all contract terms and conditions, including security requirements and labor laws, remain in effect. The Government shall not incur any additional cost nor provide additional equipment for contract performance as a result of the Contractor’s election to implement an alternative worksite plan.

(j) Notwithstanding any of the provisions in the above paragraphs and subject to the Limitation of Funds or Limitation of Cost clauses, as applicable, the period of performance may be extended at the discretion of the Contracting Officer, and the estimated cost may be increased in order to permit the Contractor to provide all of the man-hours listed in Section B. The contractor shall continue to be paid fee for each man-hour performed in accordance with the terms of the contract.
