This is a Firm-Fixed-Price and Cost Reimbursement (as defined in FAR 16.306 Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee) type task order. This acquisition will be 100% set aside for small business concerns.

B-002 Cost Estimates

When payment is made based on actual hours or costs incurred, the Government will not reim-burse costs for cost elements for which there were no estimated costs. Any exceptions must be issued by the Contracting Officer

B-004 POST HARDSHIP DIFFERENTIAL PAY AND DANGER PAY

Post Hardship Differential Pay and Danger Pay, which are forms of incentive compensation, will be generally allowable and allocated separately as an ODC or Material. However, Govern-ment payment of such costs is contingent on the Contractor meeting all of the following re-quirements:

a) Paying Post Hardship Differential Pay and Danger Pay is part of the Contractor’s estab-lished incentive compensation plan or policy, or employer/employee agreement entered into in good faith before the services are rendered, pursuant to FAR 31.205-6(f)(1)(i) (Bonuses and In-centive Compensation).

b) When paying Post Hardship Differential Pay and Danger Pay is part of the Contractor’s established incentive compensation plan or policy, such plan or policy is followed consistently as to imply, in effect, an agreement to make such payment pursuant to FAR 31.205-6(f)(1)(i) (Bonuses and Incentive Compensation).

c) The Contractor's basis for paying Post Hardship Differential Pay and Danger Pay is sup-ported, pursuant to FAR 31.205-6(f)(1)(ii) (Bonuses and Incentive Compensation).

d) Payment of such costs is otherwise consistent with FAR subpart 31.2.

e) Payment will be made only for areas identified as Post Hardship Differential Pay areas and/or Danger Pay areas in Section 920 of the Department of State Standardized Regulations

(DSSR).

f) Payment will be made only for eligible employees. Eligible employees are employees: 1) whose country of citizenship is not in the task order place of performance; and, 2) whose primary residence is in an area not identified in Section 920 of the DSSR, or an area identified in Section 920 of the DSSR with an applicable DSSR percentage that is less than the respective applicable DSSR percentage for the task order place of performance.

a) DBA Insurance costs shall be allocated separately in CLIN 002 and 1002.

b) DBA Insurance costs are unallowable for performance in the United States.

c) DBA Insurance costs are generally allowable for performance outside the United States, but only for covered Contractor and subcontractor employees. The following are covered Con-tractor and subcontractor employees: United States citizens or residents; individuals hired in the United States or its possessions, regardless of citizenship; and, Local nationals and third coun-try nationals where task order performance takes place in a country where there are no local worker’s compensation laws.

d) In addition, DBA Insurance costs are generally allowable for performance outside the United States, but only when such costs accord with the terms of the Contractor’s DBA Insur-ance policy, law, and regulation.

e) The Contractor’s DBA Insurance policy shall be with a carrier approved by the United States Department of Labor to provide DBA Insurance, or the Contractor shall be a self-insured employer authorized by the United States Department of Labor to provide DBA Insurance.

B-007 TRAVEL COSTS

a) Travel under this contract is defined as Contractor air and ground transportation, lodging, meals and incidental expenses, and passport/visa costs.

b) Except as otherwise provided herein, the Contractor shall be paid its allowable travel costs in accordance with FAR 31.205-46 (Travel Costs).

c) Travel costs are authorized for travel beyond a 50-miles’ radius of the Contractor employ-ee’s local place of performance (official duty station) whenever work is required to be accom-plished at a remote work site.

d) Local travel shall be processed as follows: If the Government requires a Contractor em-ployee to work an entire normal work day at a site other than the employee’s local place of per-formance (official duty station) and the radius between the two locations is within 50 miles, travel costs are generally allowable, but only for any difference in costs between the employee’s normal daily commuting expense and commuting expense resulting from the most economical means of transportation available to the employee after considering: any physical or medical needs of the employee; and mission requirements.

Payment for time associated with such travel is unallowable if the Government requires a Con-tractor employee to work part of a normal work day at a site other than the Contractor employ-ee’s local place of performance (official duty station) and the radius between the two locations is within 50 miles, all travel costs are generally allowable, but only for those costs resulting from the most economical means of transportation available to the employee after considering:

any physical or medical needs of the employee; and mission requirements.

For this section, “part of a normal work day” is one in which the employee arrives at the start of his normal work day to his local place of performance (official duty station) and departs at the end of his normal work day from his local place of performance (official duty station). An ex-ample is an employee having to attend a meeting at a Department of State site in the middle of the work day.

Payment for time associated with such travel is generally allowable as long as such time is counted as part of the employee’s normal work day. If the Government requires a Contractor employee to work part of a normal work day at a site other than the employee’s local place of performance (official duty station) and the radius between the two locations is within 50 miles, travel costs are generally allowable, but only for any difference in costs between the employee’s normal daily commuting expense and commuting expense resulting from the most economical means of transportation available to the employee, after considering: any physical or medical needs of the employee; and mission requirements.

For this section, “part of a normal work day” is only one of the following: One in which the em-ployee arrives at the start of his normal work day to his local place of performance (official duty station); or, One in which the employee departs at the end of his normal work day from his local place of performance (official duty station).

An example is an employee having to attend an all-morning local meeting and returning after-wards to his local place of performance (official duty station).

Payment for time associated with going from the employee’s local place of performance (official duty station) to a site other than the employee’s local place of performance (official duty station) is generally allowable as long as such time is counted as part of the employee’s normal work day.

Payment for time associated with returning from a site other than the employee’s local place of performance (official duty station) to the employee’s local place of performance (official duty station) is generally allowable as long as such time is counted as part of the employee’s normal work day.

e) No travel costs (or associated labor time during travel) shall be allowable for regular com-muting or telecommuting beyond (or within) a 50-miles’ radius of the Contractor’s local place of performance (official duty station).

f) Costs when using a privately owned vehicle (POV) for official travel are allowable provided that such costs do not exceed costs that would have resulted from use of other reason-able transportation methods (e.g., taxi, airplane, train). Reasonable associated costs, such as tolls and parking fees, are also generally allowable.

g) When traveling in a POV for official travel, the Contractor shall be paid mileage costs at a rate that does not exceed the POV mileage rate established by the Internal Revenue Service.

h) Costs for car rentals for official travel are allowable pursuant to the following: Such rent-als are consistent with good business practice; Such costs do not exceed costs that would have resulted from use of other reasonable transportation methods (e.g., taxi, airplane, train); and Such costs do not exceed the actual cost of renting a compact automobile (maximum of one automobile for four Contractor personnel), unless extenuating circumstances (e.g., excess bag-gage) require other arrangements and Contracting Officer approval is obtained.

Reasonable associated costs, such as tolls and parking fees, are also generally allowable.

i) The following items concern passports and visas: The Contractor shall be responsible for ensuring that all personnel who will be required to travel outside the United States have a cur-rent and valid U.S. passport. The Contractor shall be responsible for obtaining any visas re-quired for travel to foreign countries under this contract. The Contractor’s costs for obtaining and maintaining passports and/or visas will be generally allowable, but the Contractor shall pro-rate equitably such costs if they will benefit cost objectives (e.g., contracts) other than this cost objective. The Government will not reimburse the Contractor for travel expenses when travel is cancelled or modified as a result of the Contractor’s failure to obtain a visa, and where the Gov-ernment has determined that such failure is due to the action or inaction of the Contractor. The Government will not reimburse the Contractor for the use of private visa procurement services provided by a third party.

j) Costs for travel that has been modified or cancelled are not allowable unless such modific-ation or cancellation was caused by the Government or otherwise beyond the control of the Contractor.

k) Pursuant to FAR 47.402, 47.403, and the Fly America Act, the Contractor shall use a U.S.-flag air carrier service unless an exception exists. If such conditions exist under a fixed-price arrangement (i.e., task order or line item in a task order), the Contractor shall submit with its task order proposal a memorandum explaining why it does not intend to use a U.S.-flag air carrier service. Inclusion of such costs in the awarded fixed-price is contingent upon Govern-ment acceptance of such explanation.

If such conditions exist under arrangements when payment is made based on actual costs in-curred (e.g., cost-reimbursement arrangements, materials portion of time-and-materials arrange-ments, and progress payments based on costs under fixed-price arrangements), the Contractor shall submit with its voucher a memorandum explaining why it did not use a U.S.-flag air carri-er service. Reimbursement is contingent upon Government acceptance of such explanation.

B-015 TRAVEL COSTS (Cost-Reimbursement)

The Contractor shall be paid its allowable travel costs in accordance with FAR 31.205-46 (Travel Costs).

Government Payment of Contractor Employee Travel Time: The Government will pay the Con-tractor, under the applicable labor category CLIN(s), for each Contractor employee’s travel time to or from authorized work locations as long as the following are met:

The Contractor shall not enter into any subcontract nor engage any consultant unless the Contracting Officer shall have first notified the Contractor that there is little or no likeli-hood that an organizational conflict of interest exists or that despite the existence of a conflict of interest the award is in the best interest of the Government.

(e) Remedies. For breach of any of the above restrictions or for nondisclosure or misrepresentation of any rel-evant facts required to be disclosed concerning this contract, the Government may terminate the contract for de-fault, disqualify the Contractor for subsequent related contractual efforts and pursue such other remedies as may be permitted by law or this contract.

(f) Waiver. Requests for waiver under this clause shall be directed in writing to the Contracting Officer and shall include a full description of the requested waiver and the reasons in support thereof.
