B.1 PRICING
B.1.1 Contract Type
This is a firm‐fixed price contract. As a firm‐fixed price contract, the contract price includes all labor, materials, overheads, equipment and services necessary to accomplish the construction required by the contract, including applicable customs duties, transportation to the site, storage, premiums for insurance required by the contract (including all attachments), permits, license and inspection fees, taxes other than VAT, and all other items called for by the contract or otherwise necessary for performance of the contract.
No additional sums will be payable on account of any escalation in the cost of materials, equipment, services or labor, or because of the contractor’s failure to properly estimate or accurately predict the cost or difficulty of achieving the results required by this contract. Nor will the contract price be adjusted on account of fluctuations in currency exchange rates.
Changes in the contract price or time to complete will be made only due to changes made by the Government in the work to be performed, or by delays caused by the Government. Said changes may only be made via a written contract modification signed by the Contracting Officer.
B.1.2
The contractor shall complete all work, including furnishing all labor, material, equipment and services as called for and required by the terms and conditions of this contract document and all attachments hereto. The maximum time allowable for performance has been identified in Section/Paragraph F.1, clause 52.211-10 COMMENCEMENT, PROSECUTION, AND COMPLETION OF WORK (APR 1984) (Reference FAR 11.404(b)). The price is firm fixed-price and shall include all labor, materials, equipment, services, overhead and cost for insurance required by Section/Paragraph I.7 52.228-3, Workers’ Compensation Insurance (Defense Base Act) (for DBA Insurance also see Sections/Paragraphs H.1).
B.1.3 Tax and/or Duties
The Contractor shall take all reasonable action to obtain exemption from or refund of any taxes or duties, including interest or penalty, from which the United States Government, the Contractor, any subcontractor, or the transactions or property covered by this contract are exempt under the laws of the country concerning its political subdivisions or which the
SAQMMA-17-R-0029 Page 11 of 99 governments of the United States and the country concerned have agreed shall not be applicable to expenditures in such country by or on behalf of the United States.
Note that the Contractor will not be reimbursed VAT or IVA under this contract by the USG.
All other taxes should be included in the firm fixed price and not separately reimbursable.
B.1.4 Employee Salary Benefits
The Government shall have no responsibility or liability for payment of any wages or benefits to Contractor's employees. The Government, its agencies, agents, and employees shall not be part of any legal action or obligation regarding these benefits, which may subsequently arise. Where local law requires bonuses, premium overtime rates, specific minimum wage levels, and premium pay for holidays, payments for social security, pensions, severance, sick or health benefits, childcare or any other benefit, the Contractor is responsible for these payments. The Contractor shall submit evidence of compliance with this requirement upon request by the Government. The firm fixed price rates shall include all such costs.

F.5 SCHEDULES
SAQMMA-17-R-0029 Page 20 of 99
CONTRACTOR’S SUBMISSION OF PROJECT EXECUTION SCHEDULES
The time for submission of the schedules shall be as required in J-3-1 Specifications_Pier_Candelilla.pdf.
These schedules shall include the construction, shop drawings, product data, samples and other submittals required by the contract to be submitted for acceptance.
All deliverables shall be in the English language, unless otherwise provided hereunder, and any system of dimensions (i.e., English or metric) shown shall be consistent with that used in the contract. No extension of time shall be allowed because of a delay by the Government in approving such deliverables if the Contractor has failed to act promptly and responsively in submitting its deliverables. Each deliverable shall be identified as required by the contract.
The Contractor shall revise such schedules (1) to account for the actual progress of the work,
(2) to reflect approved adjustments in the performance schedule, and (3) as required by the COR to achieve coordination with work by the Government and any separate contractors employed by the Government. The Contractor shall submit schedules on the last day of the preceding month for the next month’s work. The schedule shall sequence work to minimize disruption at the jobsite.
F.6 WORK HOURS
For this project the hours of work should be according to regular work hours in Colombia, this is 40 hours a week and from 8:00H to 17:00H (1 hour of lunch). If other schedule is proposed by the contractor it requires the approval from the COR.
F.7 EXCUSABLE DELAYS
The Contractor will be allowed time, not money, for excusable delays as defined in FAR 52.249-10, Default. Examples of such cases include (l) acts of God or of the public enemy;
(2) acts of the United States Government in either its sovereign or contractual capacity; (3) acts of the government of the host country in its sovereign capacity; (4) acts of another contractor in the performance of a contract with the Government; (5)fires; (6) floods; (7) epidemics; (8) quarantine restrictions; (9) strikes; (l0) freight embargoes; and (11) unusually severe weather.
In each instance, the failure to perform must be beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor, and the failure to perform furthermore (1) must be one that the Contractor could not have reasonably anticipated and taken adequate measures to protect against, (2) cannot be overcome by reasonable efforts to reschedule the work, and (3) directly and materially affects the date of final completion of the project.
In determining whether the Contractor’s failure to perform is beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor, if the Contractor contends that its inability to perform is due to poor security conditions, the Government will consider, at a minimum, the following: (i) whether the Contractor implemented adequate security resources, in light of the information reasonably available to the Contractor; (ii) whether the Contractor deployed
SAQMMA-17-R-0029 Page 21 of 99 adequate additional security resources in a timely manner and on an expedited basis, once the need for additional security resources became reasonably clear; and (iii) whether the security conditions were directly impacting the Contractor in its performance of its contract (as opposed to generalized assessments of security conditions in an entire country or city).
Furthermore, the mere fact that the diplomatic post in the city or country where the contract was being performed changed its operating status (e.g., from Authorized Departure to Ordered Departure) or that a new travel warning, warden message, or similar document or communication was issued by the Department of State, will not establish that the security conditions prevented the Contractor from performing the Contract.
F.8 DELIVERABLES/SUBMITTALS
The contractor shall furnish the following deliverables/submittals listed in the Statement of Work as well as all other identified under this contract.
F.9 RESERVED
F.10 PROJECT EXECUTION SCHEDULE
Project Execution Schedules shall be submitted to the COR for acceptance. The schedule shall show the order in which the Contractor proposes to perform the work and the dates on and time periods within which the Contractor contemplates starting and completing the various portions of the work, in the form and containing such detail as is required by the Contract Documents. The Contractor shall revise such schedules (1) to account for the actual progress of the work, (2) to reflect approved adjustments in the Contract Time, and (3) as required by the COR to achieve coordination with work by the Government and separate contractors. If the Contractor fails to submit any schedule or schedule revision within the time prescribed, the COR may withhold approval of progress payments until the Contractor submits the required schedule or schedule revision.
Acceptance of schedule - When the Government has accepted any time schedule, it shall be binding upon the Contractor. The Contract Time is fixed by the contract, and may be extended only by a written Contract modification, Change Order or Supplemental Agreement signed by the Contracting Officer. Acceptance or approval of any schedule or revision thereof by the Government shall not (1) be effective to extend the Contract Time or obligate the Government to do so, (2) constitute acceptance of any delay, nor (3) excuse the Contractor from or relieve the Contractor of its obligation to maintain the progress of the work and achieve final completion within the Contract Time.
