a. The Contract

b. The Specifications

c. Technical Exhibits

d. DoD and Army Regulations

e. DINS

C.1.1.1.5.2 To the extent that German laws and regulations exceed the requirements of the subparagraphs above, the most stringent shall apply.

C.1.1.1.5.3 The Contractor shall identify conflicts or discrepancies, when noted, and present a recommendation to the Contracting Officer.

C.1.1.1.5.4 The work on Army real property in this contract is generally categorized and accomplished as standing operations orders, service orders and individual job orders as described in general definitions item C.2.3.2 in this contract.

STANDING OPERATIONS ORDER (SOO): A government term for the approval of plant operation, operation maintenance and recurring preventative maintenance services or other services where specific work and manpower requirements are relatively constant and predictable in advance. For work to be considered other than a SOO it must be above and beyond what normal industry practices consider normal plant operation, operation maintenance and recurring preventative maintenance services. The burden of proof lies with the Contractor to prove if work is considered above and beyond SOO work and should be executed as a Service Order or Individual Job Order. However, the Contracting Officer will be the final decision making authority in the event of a dispute. The Contractor will be reimbursed for material costs that occur during the SOO work.

SERVICE ORDER (SO): Minor Maintenance, repair and construction jobs for which work hours and other resources are such that detailed estimating and scheduling are not economically justified. Repairs accomplished by SO that can normally be accomplished within 40 man hours, not to exceed 3,000 EURO in total labor and material cost. SOs that meet the description of the “OMA/AFH Fixed Priced Item list,” shall always use the Fixed Price rate, and shall not use the SO Labor Hour rate. Only SOs which clearly do not meet the description of the Fixed Priced Item list shall be subject to using the Labor Hour rate. There are references throughout this PWS of pre-approved or pre-authorized SOs. Upon Contract award, a list of pre-approved/pre-authorized Service Orders will be provided by the COR. (Examples of pre-authorized SOs could include repair of a door, repair of a light, etc.)

INDIVIDUAL JOB ORDER (IJO): Directive for those maintenance, repair and construction jobs for which detailed estimating of work hours and other resources are necessary. Maintenance, repair, construction or alterations that exceed service order criteria. It may also be referred to as a facilities engineer work order or work request. Repairs requiring greater that 40 man hours but not to exceed 75,000 EURO in total labor and material cost. Preference shall be given to accomplishing IJOs as Firm Fixed Priced requirements, whether worked internally by the IMC Contractor, or subcontracted out. IJOs shall only be executed as Labor Hour requirements when the work needing to be performed meets the criteria of Priority 1, Emergency Work (TE 5.1-002), or the work is truly unable to be defined within a reasonable degree of clarity and certainty.

Fixed Priced Item (FPI): In addition to work ordered as a Service Order or Individual Job Order, work may also be ordered by the COR as a FPI. This work will be ordered in specific unit quantities and includes work such as raingutter cleaning, painting, replacement of carpeting, etc. Materials are to be included by the Contractor, and are not reimbursed by the Government. Materials are to be of like or better quality than currently existing materials, as determined by the COR.

In the cases where U.S. and German holidays coincide, the Contractor shall treat the day as a German holiday. The absence of personnel on U.S. holidays may provide the Contractor with an opportunity for access to facilities and areas for uninterrupted performance of work. The Contractor shall take full advantage of such opportunities by planning maintenance or other actions that are better accomplished when personnel are not using facilities during those times. The Contractor shall not perform work in Government housing quarters on U.S. holidays except to resolve an emergency condition or with the expressed permission of the occupant in advance.

On German holidays, all Contractor offices may be closed, except for minimum essential personnel, or as otherwise specified in this PWS. Refer to TE 1.3-001 for the German holidays.

C.1.3.6.7 Training Holidays. USAREUR has historically granted military personnel Training Holidays as compensation for time that they spent in field training.

If scheduled work or access to facilities is required, coordination with occupants will be necessary or the work in affected facilities shall be rescheduled after the training holiday. However, announced training holidays or exodus of military personnel may provide the Contractor with an opportunity for unrestricted access to facilities and areas. The Contractor shall take full advantage of such opportunities by planning maintenance or actions that are better accomplished when such areas are vacant.

This cooperation shall facilitate the follow-on contractor’s assumption of the impacted members of the affected workforce. It shall also help to ensure successful contract phase-in and the prevention of a downgrade in services during the new contract’s phase-in period.

Regardless of the applicability of BGB 613a, upon the request of the Government, the Contractor shall provide a list of local national direct hire positions and copies of any applicable tariff and/or shop agreements.

Such employment shall not involve holding of a concurrent U.S. civilian position nor result in receipt of U.S. Government compensation for work performed for the Contractor.
