NOTES:

1. The hourly burdened labor rates proposed in Table 1 are binding upon contract award for the life of the

MATOC.

2. The hourly burdened labor rates should include all cost buildups to the unburdened labor rate, including overhead, G&A, and any other cap rates identified by the offeror in Table 2. Profit shall not be included in the hourly burdened labor rates.

3. The binding hourly rates represent the maximum labor rates that the contractor shall use when responding to a Request for Task Order Proposal (RTOP) issued by the Government. These binding rates shall also apply to all modifications. The contractor may propose a lower hourly rate for these labor disciplines when responding to the RTOP based on the tasks identified in the RTOP or modification requests.

4. Adherence to these rates will be reviewed through submittal of supporting documentation by the contractor with each task order proposal. Failure to propose the binding hourly rate or a lower rate for the listed labor disciplines may result in the Contractor’s task order proposal being rejected for award consideration.

5. If a discipline is not listed in the binding labor rate schedule and is required for the contractor to perform a specific task order, the contractor may propose the required labor category and the associated fully burdened labor rate (exclusive of profit) in the proposal submitted in response to the issued RTOP.

00 10 00 - 4

6. If during the Contract Period of Performance, the Contractor’s original personnel are no longer available, the Contractor shall find personnel that have the same qualifications or higher as stated in this contract. The Contractor shall be responsible for negotiating the labor rates for those personnel that have been provided in Table 1. The rates provided in Table 1 are the maximum that will be paid by the Government for any replacement personnel.

7. The maximum rates shall be governed by the effective date of the Task Order. Task Orders will use the prices for the 12-month period effective on the date the Task Order is issued. Modifications to Task Orders will reflect the rates of the “current 12-month” binding labor rate schedule. For example, if the rate schedule changes over on 1 November of each year, and a Task Order is issue on 1 September 2021 for 12 months work, the maximum rates will be the rates that were effective on 1 November 2020. Under the same assumptions, if a modification to the Task Order is required in December 2021, the labor rates effective on 1 November 2021 will apply.

8. The Government reserves the right to request certified cost or pricing data; or information other than certified cost or pricing data from the contractor at the task order level to assess the reasonableness of the proposed task order pricing.

2. BINDING CAP RATE SCHEDULE

1. The Binding Cap Rates provided in Table 2 represent 1) a breakout of the caps/markups that are incorporated into the Fully Burdened Hourly Rates submitted in Table 1; 2) caps/markups on materials/services; and 3) caps/markups to be applied to future task order modifications. If the offeror has Binding Cap Rates that are the same for Base Period Years 1 – 5 simply put the same number in each box.

If the offeror intends to provide Binding Rate Caps that are different for any or all of the Base Period Years 2-3 or the Option Period Years 4-5 from the Base Period Year 1, the offeror must provide a justification for the changed cap rates. In addition, the offeror must also provide the unburdened rates for Base Period Years 2-3 and for Option Period Years 4-5 so that the Government can review the calculations of the unburdened versus burdened labor rates.

2. The Binding Cap Rates represent the maximum rates that the Contractor shall use when responding to a task order request issued by the Government. These Binding Cap Rates shall also apply to all modifications. The Contractor may propose lower rates for these when responding to the task order request or modification requests.

3. Adherence to these rates will be reviewed through submittal of supporting documentation by the Contractor with each task order proposal. Failure to propose the binding rates may result in the Contractor’s task order proposal being rejected for award consideration.

4. The Binding Cap Rates shall be governed by the effective date of the Task Order. Task Orders will use the prices for the 12-month period effective on the date the Task Order is issued.

Modifications to Task Orders will reflect the rates of the “current 12-month” Binding Cap Rate schedule.

For example, if the rate schedule changes over on 1 November of each year, and a Task Order is issue on 1 September 2021 for 12 months work, the maximum rates will be the rates that were effective on 1 November 2020. Under the same assumptions, if a modification to the Task Order is required in December 2021, the Binding Cap Rates effective on 1 November 2021 will apply.

5. If the offeror intends to use the same Binding Cap Rates throughout the entire life of the contract, the offeror can propose an escalation rate to be applied to the previous year’s fully burdened labor rate.

3. BINDING PROFIT RATE

1. The maximum profit rate shall be binding and shall be the maximum profit rate the Contractor will be allowed to propose for all firm-fixed-price task orders and/or subsequent modifications issued under this contract.

2. The Contractor may propose a lower profit rate when responding to the task order request (or subsequent modifications) based on the tasks identified in the request. Profit will be negotiated on an individual Task Order and modification basis, but shall never exceed the rates identified in Table 3. The maximum profit rate shall be binding even if the Weighted Guidelines Method would result in a higher profit. The maximum profit rate shall not be construed as a “fixed” profit percentage for all Task Order or Modification actions. If Weighted Guidelines Method calculations indicate a lower profit is merited, the lower profit percentage shall be applied.

"Registered in the System for Award Management (SAM)" means that-

(1) The Offeror has entered all mandatory information, including the unique entity identifier and the EFT indicator, if applicable, the Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) code, as well as data required by the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006 (see subpart 4.14) into SAM;

(2) The offeror has completed the Core, Assertions, and Representations and Certifications, and Points of Contact sections of the registration in SAM;

(3) The Government has validated all mandatory data fields, to include validation of the Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The offeror will be required to provide TIN validation to the Government as a part of the SAM registration process;

“Unique entity identifier” means a number or other identifier used to identify a specific commercial, nonprofit, or Government entity. See www.sam.gov for the designated entity for establishing unique entity identifiers.

(b)(1) An Offeror is required to be registered in SAM when submitting an offer or quotation, and shall continue to be registered until time of award, during performance, and through final payment of any contract, basic agreement, basic ordering agreement, or blanket purchasing agreement resulting from this solicitation.

(2) The Offeror shall enter, in the block with its name and address on the cover page of its offer, the annotation “Unique Entity Identifier” followed by the unique entity identifier that identifies the Offeror’s name and address exactly as stated in the offer.

(a) Definition. As used in this provision –

“Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) code” means –

(1) An identifier assigned to entities located in the United States or its outlying areas by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) Branch to identify a commercial or government entity by unique location; or

(2) An identifier assigned by a member of the North Atlantic

Treaty Organization (NATO) or by the NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA) to entities located outside the United States and its outlying areas that the DLA Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) Branch records and maintains in the CAGE master file. This type of code is known as a NATO CAGE (NCAGE) code.

(b) The Offeror shall provide its CAGE code with its offer with its name and location address or otherwise include it prominently in its proposal. The CAGE code must be for that name and location address. Insert the word “CAGE” before the number. The CAGE code is required prior to award.

(c) CAGE codes may be obtained via–

(1) Registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) at www.sam.gov. If the Offeror is located in the United States or its outlying areas and does not already have a CAGE code assigned, the DLA Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) Branch will assign a CAGE code as a part of the SAM registration process. SAM registrants located outside the United States and its outlying areas shall obtain a NCAGE code prior to registration in SAM (see paragraph (c)(3) of this provision).

(2) The DLA Contractor and Government Entity (CAGE) Branch. If registration in SAM is not required for the subject procurement, and the

DOCUMENT 00 21 00 Page 4 offeror does not otherwise register in SAM, an Offeror located in the United States or its outlying areas may request that a CAGE code be assigned by submitting a request at https://cage.dla.mil.

(3) The appropriate country codification bureau. Entities located outside the United States and its outlying areas may obtain an NCAGE code by contacting the Codification Bureau in the foreign entity’s country if that country is a member of NATO or a sponsored nation. NCAGE codes may be obtained from the NSPA at https://eportal.nspa.nato.int/AC135Public/scage/CageList.aspx if the foreign entity’s country is not a member of NATO or a sponsored nation.

Points of contact for codification bureaus, as well as additional information on obtaining NCAGE codes, are available at http://www.nato.int/structur/AC/135/main/links/contacts.htm.

(d) Additional guidance for establishing and maintaining CAGE codes is available at https://cage.dla.mil.

(e) When a CAGE code is required for the immediate owner and/or the highest-level owner by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 52.204-17 or 52.212-3(p), the Offeror shall obtain the respective CAGE code from that entity to supply the CAGE code to the Government.

(f) Do not delay submission of the offer pending receipt of a CAGE code.

(g) If the solicitation includes FAR clause 52.204-2, Security Requirements, a subcontractor requiring access to classified information under a contract shall be identified with a CAGE code on the DD Form 254.

The Contractor shall require a subcontractor requiring access to classified information to provide its CAGE code with its name and location address or otherwise include it prominently in the proposal. Each location of subcontractor performance listed on the DD Form 254 is required to reflect a corresponding unique CAGE code for each listed location unless the work is being performed at a Government facility, in which case the agency location code shall be used. The CAGE code must be for that name and location address. Insert the word “CAGE” before the number. The CAGE code is required prior to award.

(End of provision)

1.3 (FAR 52.204-22) ALTERNATIVE LINE ITEM PROPOSAL (JAN 2017)

(a) The Government recognizes that the line items established in this solicitation may not conform to the Offeror’s practices. Failure to correct these issues can result in difficulties in acceptance of deliverables and processing payments. Therefore, the Offeror is invited to propose alternative line items for which bids, proposals, or quotes are requested in this solicitation to ensure that the resulting contract is economically and administratively advantageous to the Government and the Offeror.

(b) The Offeror may submit one or more additional proposals with alternative line items, provided that alternative line items are consistent with subpart 4.10 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation. However, acceptance of an alternative proposal is a unilateral decision made solely at the discretion of the Government. Offers that do not comply with the line items specified in this solicitation may be determined to be nonresponsive or unacceptable.

(ii)(A) Any proposal, modification, or revision received at the Government office designated in the solicitation after the exact time specified for receipt of offers is "late" and will not be considered unless it is received before award is made, the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late offer would not unduly delay the acquisition; and-

(e) Restriction on disclosure and use of data. Offerors that include in their proposals data that they do not want disclosed to the public for any purpose, or used by the Government except for evaluation purposes, shall-

(1) Mark the title page with the following legend:

This proposal includes data that shall not be disclosed outside the Government and shall not be duplicated, used, or disclosed-in whole or in part-for any purpose other than to evaluate this proposal. If, however, a contract is awarded to this offeror as a result of-or in connection with-the submission of this data, the Government shall have the right to duplicate, use, or disclose the data to the extent provided in the resulting contract. This restriction does not limit the Government's right to use information contained in this data if it is obtained from another source without restriction. The data subject to this restriction are contained in sheets [insert numbers or other identification of sheets]; and

(2) Mark each sheet of data it wishes to restrict with the following legend:

Use or disclosure of data contained on this sheet is subject to the restriction on the title page of this proposal.

(f) Contract award. (1) The Government intends to award a contract or contracts resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror(s) whose proposal(s) represents the best value after evaluation in accordance with the factors and subfactors in the solicitation.

(2) The Government may reject any or all proposals if such action is in the Government's interest.

(3) The Government may waive informalities and minor irregularities in proposals received.

(4) The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with offerors (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)). Therefore, the offeror's initial proposal should contain the offeror's best terms from a cost or price and technical standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary. If the Contracting Officer determines that the number of proposals that would otherwise be in the competitive range exceeds the number at which an efficient competition can be conducted, the Contracting Officer may limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals.

(5) The Government reserves the right to make an award on any item for a quantity less than the quantity offered, at the unit cost or prices offered, unless the offeror specifies otherwise in the proposal.

DOCUMENT 00 21 00 Page 8

(6) The Government reserves the right to make multiple awards if, after considering the additional administrative costs, it is in the Government's best interest to do so.

(7) Exchanges with offerors after receipt of a proposal do not constitute a rejection or counteroffer by the Government.

(8) The Government may determine that a proposal is unacceptable if the prices proposed are materially unbalanced between line items or subline items. Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total evaluated price, the price of one or more line items is significantly overstated or understated as indicated by the application of cost or price analysis techniques. A proposal may be rejected if the Contracting Officer determines that the lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government.

(9) If a cost realism analysis is performed, cost realism may be considered by the source selection authority in evaluating performance or schedule risk.

(10) A written award or acceptance of proposal mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time specified in the proposal shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party.

(11) If a post-award debriefing is given to requesting offerors, the Government shall disclose the following information, if applicable:

(i) The agency's evaluation of the significant weak or deficient factors in the debriefed offeror's offer.

(ii) The overall evaluated cost or price and technical rating of the successful and the debriefed offeror and past performance information on the debriefed offeror.

(iii) The overall ranking of all offerors, when any ranking was developed by the agency during source selection.

(iv) A summary of the rationale for award.

(v) For acquisitions of commercial items, the make and model of the item to be delivered by the successful offeror.

(vi) Reasonable responses to relevant questions posed by the debriefed offeror as to whether source-selection procedures set forth in the solicitation, applicable regulations, and other applicable authorities were followed by the agency.
