CLAUSES INCORPORATED BY FULL TEXT

B-215-H002 REFUNDS (SPARES AND SUPPORT EQUIPMENT) (NAVSEA) (OCT 2018)

(a) In the event that the price of a spare part or item of support equipment delivered under this contract significantly exceeds its intrinsic value, the Contractor agrees to refund the difference. Refunds will not be made to recoup the amount of cost decreases that occur over time due to productivity gains (excluding economic purchase quantity considerations) or changes in market conditions.

(b) For purposes of this requirement, the intrinsic value of an item is defined as follows:

(1) If the item is one which is sold or is substantially similar or functionally equivalent to one that is sold in substantial quantities to the general public, intrinsic value is the established catalog or market price, plus the value of any unique requirements, including delivery terms, inspection, packaging, or labeling.

(2) If there is no comparable item sold in substantial quantities to the general public, intrinsic value is defined as the price an individual would expect to pay for the item based upon an economic purchase quantity as defined in FAR 52.207-4, plus the value of any unique requirements, including delivery terms, inspection, packaging or labeling.

(c) At any time up to two years after delivery of a spare part or item of support equipment, the Contracting Officer may notify the Contractor that based on all information available at the time of the notice, the price of the part or item apparently exceeds its intrinsic value.

(d) If notified in accordance with paragraph (c) above, the Contractor agrees to enter into good faith negotiations with the Government to determine if, and in what amount, the Government is entitled to a refund.

(e) If agreement pursuant to paragraph (d) above cannot be reached, and the Navy's return of the new or unused item to the Contractor is practical, the Navy, subject to the Contractor's agreement, may elect to return the item to the Contractor.

Upon return of the item to its original point of Government acceptance, the Contractor shall refund in full the price paid.

If no agreement pursuant to paragraph (d) above is reached, and return of the item by the Navy is impractical, the

Contracting Officer may, with the approval of the Head of the Contracting Activity, issue a Contracting Officer's final decision on the matter, subject to Contractor appeal as provided in the "Disputes" clause (FAR 52.233-1).

(f) The Contractor shall make refunds, as required under this requirement, in accordance with instructions from the Contracting Officer.

(g) The Contractor shall not be liable for a refund if the Contractor advised the Contracting Officer in a timely manner that the price it would propose for a spare part or item of support equipment exceeded its intrinsic value, and with such advice, specified the estimated proposed price, the estimated intrinsic value and known alternative sources or item, if any, that can meet the requirement.

(h) This requirement does not apply to any spare parts or items of support equipment whose price is determined through adequate price competition. This requirement also does not apply to any spare part or item of support equipment if the Contractor submitted, and certified the currency, accuracy and completeness of, cost or pricing data applicable to the item.

*The offeror shall divide the proposed fee for each CLIN by the quantity of labor hours indicated to complete the table. Fee is calculated based on cost less FCCOM; if FCCOM is proposed, necessary columns may be added.

In the event of any inconsistency between the above table and the CLIN pricing, the CLIN pricing shall take precedence.

B-227-H001 PROVISIONING TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION – WITHHOLDING OF PAYMENT

(NAVSEA) (OCT 2018)

(a) For the purpose of paragraph (c) of the "Progress Payments" clause of this contract, if included, the requirement that the Contractor develop and deliver Provisioning Technical Documentation (PTD) is considered to be a "material requirement of this contract," and Contractor failure to make adequate progress in the development of PTD, or to deliver acceptable PTD on a timely basis, may result in reduction or suspension of Progress Payments as provided in said paragraph.

(b) The PTD is considered to be a part of the "Technical Data" specified to be delivered under this contract for the purposes of the "Technical Data--Withholding of Payment" (DFARS 252.227-7030) clause. The terms and conditions of the clause entitled "Limitation On Withholding of Payments (FAR 52.232-9), if included in this contract, shall not apply to withholding of payment for failure to make timely delivery of the PTD or delivery of deficient PTD.

B-231-H001 TRAVEL COSTS (NAVSEA) (OCT 2018)

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, the Contractor shall be reimbursed for its actual travel costs in accordance with FAR 31.205-46. The travel costs to be reimbursed shall be those costs for which the Contractor has maintained appropriate documentation and which have been determined to be allowable, allocable, and reasonable by the Procuring Contracting Officer, Administrative Contracting Officer, or their duly authorized representative.

(b) Reimbursable travel costs include only that travel performed from the Contractor's facility to the worksite, in and around the worksite, and from the worksite to the Contractor's facility.

(c) Relocation costs and travel costs incidental to relocation are allowable to the extent provided in FAR 31.205-35;

however, Procuring Contracting Officer approval shall be required prior to incurring relocation expenses and travel costs incidental to relocation.

(d) The Contractor shall not be reimbursed for the following daily local travel costs:

(i) travel at U.S. Military Installations where Government transportation is available,

(ii) travel performed for personal convenience/errands, including commuting to and from work, and

(iii) travel costs incurred in the replacement of personnel when such replacement is accomplished for the Contractor's or employee's convenience.

B-231-H002 WORKSITE TRAVEL COSTS (NAVSEA) (OCT 2018)

(a) The contractor shall not charge, and the Government shall not pay, as an allowable cost under this contract, any manhour costs (whether straight-time or overtime) for contractor personnel or subcontractor personnel traveling to or from worksites, including travel to worksites other than the contractor's facility for performance of contract work.

(b) Workers being paid under this contract, as prime contractor personnel or subcontractor personnel, will complete a full shift at the worksite, and no compensation will be paid for travel time before or after the shift.

(c) This requirement pertains only to payments for travel time before or after these workers' regular shifts (commuting costs), and does not apply to legitimate travel costs incurred during normal working hours, provided that those costs are otherwise reasonable, allocable and allowable and approved in writing by the Government. This requirement does not apply to manufacturer's representatives or Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) representatives when specifically required by the Government work specifications.

(d) Additionally, the contractor shall not charge, and the Government shall not pay, any transportation costs under this contract associated with transporting contractor or subcontractor personnel between the contractor's facility (or subcontractor's facility), and any other worksite to perform ship repair, maintenance or modernization.

Transportation costs include, but are not limited to, bus fare, car fare, train fare, or boat fare, paid by the work force, or paid by the contractor on behalf of the work force.

B-232-H006 LIMITATION OF COST OR LIMITATION OF FUNDS CLARIFICATION (NAVSEA) (OCT 2018)

The clause entitled "Limitation of Cost" (FAR 52.232-20) or "Limitation of Funds" (FAR 52.232-22), as appropriate, shall apply separately and independently to each separately identified estimated cost.
