At the time of delivery of any shop fabricated material, signed time sheets for each day of Shop Labor listing the Labor Classification, the same of the tradesman and the hours worked along with a receiver document detailing the type, quantity and cost of all material and parts used must be provided to the TM and T&M Office. Invoices for the shop fabricated parts shall show the dates and the number of hours for Shop Labor expended, the type and quantity of material used, and the cost of each of those items. It is understood that the Subcontractor will purchase pre-fabricated parts whenever possible.

5.7 MATERIAL, THIRD PARTY RENTED EQUIPMENT, SUBCONTRACTED LABOR, OR OTHER SPECIALIZED SERVICE: The Subcontractor shall be reimbursed for all Subcontractor furnished material, equipment, labor, or other specialized service which was authorized to be supplied directly by the Subcontractor or obtained from third parties in a Release or Releases. A billing rate must be established in writing with the T&M Office and the Task Manager before any Subcontractor rental equipment or third party is used on any job. Hourly usage of equipment must be listed on each job’s daily time sheet. All third party items will be billed as a material invoice. Third party invoicing will be reimbursed based on the submission of the current Insurers general liability insurance percentage rate.

Upon receipt of acceptable invoices, showing a breakdown of the labor, material, and rental equipment used as provided elsewhere in the Subcontract, and upon presentation by the Subcontractor of his vendors’ billings for such purchases or rentals, FRA agrees to reimburse the Subcontractor the net amount of such vendor billings provided that the vendors’ billings reflect prices which are equal to or lower than the prices which would have been paid by FRA if it had acquired the equipment or service under like or similar market conditions. Discounts, rebates, or other adjustments available to the Subcontractor shall be credited to FRA. Material handling charges are not allowable on third party billing invoices.

When the Subcontractor’s rate is higher than the FRA similar market rate, a fair and reasonable reimbursement rate must be negotiated with the T&M Office. Charges shall be split between Releases when equipment/service on a single third-party Subcontract is used to perform work on multiple Releases. Rental equipment must be properly maintained, tested, and currently certified when required.

6.0 MATERIAL RECEIPT & ACCEPTANCE by FERMILAB:

The Subcontractor will be required to furnish and will be reimbursed for materials which will become part of or consumed on various T&M Releases. No provision exists in this Subcontract for mark-up of T&M materials and supplies. Proper job planning is necessary to order materials, supplies, repair parts, or other commodities for delivery.

Subcontractor journeyman labor may be used for off-site purchasing/pick-up in unusual circumstances, but shall not be acceptable for routine business transactions. Reimbursement will not be made at higher than journeyman rates, regardless of who actually performed the task.

Any and all materials and/or supplies authorized in a T&M Release shall upon delivery to the Fermilab site be received, inspected, and accepted by a representative of the Subcontractor and the T&M Manager or Task Manager. At time of delivery of any and all material from the Subcontractor’s stock or from a supplier, a legible dated and signed receipt will be provided to FRA listing each item of material supplied, the quantity, and the price. The Subcontractor’s invoices should identify the delivery receipts and the related Release for all Subcontractor-furnished materials and/or supplies.

7.0 PASSAGE OF TITLE

Title to materials and/or supplies which the Subcontractor was authorized to purchase in the Release shall vest in FRA immediately upon their acceptance.

8.0 PAYMENT

Promptly after receipt of each validated invoice with accompanying certified payroll, FRA shall, subject to the provisions of the Subcontract, make payment as approved. All T&M invoices for labor shall show each individual tradesman’s name, the craft and classifications furnished, and the number of hours worked and rate of pay on each Release by each worker in each category each day. Labor invoices submitted for payment shall be substantiated by detailed daily records of workers, crafts, classification, and number of hours worked, approved by a representative of the organization for whom the work was accomplished.

Invoices for Subcontractor-owned equipment will identify the number of hours each piece of equipment was used by T&M Release. Invoices for material and third-party service or rental equipment will identify each charge by Release and be supported by a copy of the original invoice submitted by the Subcontractor's supplier. Material provided by FRA shall also be included in the form of a supplemental note associated with each Release, with sufficient detail to be able to combine with the invoiced material above to establish a complete Bill of Materials used on each task.

At any time prior to final settlement under this Subcontract, representatives of FRA or its designees will have access to and the right to audit the Subcontractor’s invoices, vouchers, statements of cost, books and records to determine the correctness and propriety of payments made under this Subcontract. Each payment theretofore made shall be subject to adjustment for amounts included in the related invoice or voucher on the basis of such audit. Any payments may be reduced for over payment, or increased for under payments on preceding invoices or vouchers.

The Subcontractor agrees that any refunds, rebates, or other amounts (including any interest thereon) accruing to or received by the Subcontractor or any assignee under this Subcontract shall be paid by the Subcontractor to FRA to the extent that they are properly allocated to costs for which the Subcontractor has been reimbursed by FRA under this Subcontract. Reasonable expenses incurred by the Subcontractor for the purpose of securing such refunds, rebates, credits, or other amounts shall be allowable costs hereunder when approved by FRA.
