A.1 INTRODUCTION

A.1.1 The Route Clearance Interrogation System (RCIS) capability provides a solution to mitigate gaps identified in Explosive Hazards

Defeat Initial Capabilities Document (ICD); Joint Requirements Oversight Council Memorandum (JROCM) 095-06; and Mobility Through Urban and Complex Terrain (MTUCT) ICD, Catalog of Approved Requirements Documents (CARDS) #06058. This Army requirement comes from the

A.1.2.2 The Government will utilize a cost incentive during EMD as set forth in FAR clause 52.216-10 (Incentive Fee). The contractor will propose target cost, cost of money, and target fee. The Government established a 50/50 share ratio for overruns and a 70/30 share line for underruns, with a 2% minimum and 12% maximum fee. The EMD effort also includes a separately priced Contract Line Item Number

(CLIN) for Field Service Representative (FSR) support on a Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) basis.

A.1.2.3 The Government will utilize a technical incentive during EMD to incentivize technical performance based on the parameter of wireless Line of Sight (LOS) range. The contractors fee will be increased by up to 2.5% of EMD CLIN 1000AA proposed price (target cost

+ target fee) in accordance with the Measurement scale listed in H.6.1.3 if its RCIS Type I achieves the performance IAW the criteria in

Section H.6.1.3.1.1.
