(b) Unit prices under this acquisition shall not contain more than four (4) decimal places.

(c) Evaluation quantities and weights are included in the price matrices and are provided for evaluation only. The evaluation quantities and weights are estimates based on planning quantities at this time and are not obligatory under this contract; they are not binding and shall not be relied upon for execution purposes. Not meeting, or exceeding, the evaluation quantities should be expected and will not constitute revision of the price matrices. If the Government's requirements do not result in orders for the estimated evaluation quantities, it shall not constitute the basis for an equitable price adjustment. All orders placed against this contract are subject to availability funds.

(d) A quantity of 30,000,000 rounds (total of all 5.56mm, 7.62mm, .50 Caliber, .30 Caliber, and .22 Caliber combined) will be awarded in the initial award to achieve the minimum under the IDIQ in accordance with FAR 16.504(a)(2).

(i) Unit prices are effective for each Government FY. DOs and DO modifications placed against the contract will always reflect the current cumulative family total of the delivery order. If a new order changes the quantity range of a family within the same DO, the price of all previously awarded quantity within the DO will be adjusted accordingly (downward only). Families are established as 5.56mm;

7.62mm/.30 Caliber; .50 Caliber; and .22 Caliber.

Example (all quantity ranges/prices are for illustration purposes):

DODIC A059 DODIC AA33

Range Unit Price Range Unit Price _____ __________ _____ __________

1-50 $0.50 each 1-50 $0.39

51-99 $0.48 each 51-99 $0.34

100-200 $0.46 each 100-200 $0.29

On 30 Oct 2019, the Government issues a DO for 45 cartridges of A059 at $0.50 each. On 02 Jan 2020, the Government issues a modification to the same DO for 40 cartridges of AA33. As both DODICs are within the 5.56mm family, both of their quantities count towards the cumulative family total, resulting in a total family quantity for that DO of 85 cartridges. The 40 cartridges of AA33 are awarded at a unit price of $0.34 each and the price for the initial 45 cartridges of A059 is adjusted from $0.50 each to $0.48 each.

(j) All matrix unit prices are subject to an Economic Price Adjustment in accordance with Narrative I0001, Economic Price Adjustment -

Material.

7 215

Name of Offeror or Contractor:

PIIN/SIIN MOD/AMD

(k) In addition to an EPA Adjustment, the following items are also subject to a currency fluctuation adjustment as outlined in Narrative

I0002, Currency Fluctuation Provision: A606, A607, AA06, AA41, AA50 and AA58.

(l) The following family maximum quantities apply in each DO period. Offerors are advised that the Government is not obligated to award any quantities beyond the guaranteed minimum for IDIQ CLINs, and the Government has no minimum obligation for the Requirements CLINs.

5.56mm: 1,320,000,000

7.62mm/Caliber .30: 230,000,000

Caliber .50: 75,000,000

Caliber .22: 6,000,000 _____________

Total: 1,631,000,000

(m) The ranges identified for each DODIC within the price matrices serve as the cumulative family ranges; accordingly, the maximum identified for each DODIC is the maximum for the family, not the individual DODIC. The contractor is only required to deliver up to the family maximums per DO in accordance with the delivery terms outlined in the contract.

(n) Any cost impact due to configuration change(s) during contract execution will be limited exclusively to the costs directly attributable to the change(s), will require substantiation, and will be negotiated in accordance with the Changes Clause (52.243-1, Changes-Fixed Price). Any additional production orders resulting from a configuration change(s) will be considered as part of the applicable cumulative family total.

*** END OF NARRATIVE B0001 ***

INDUSTRIAL CAPACITY___________________
