Section B - Supplies or Services and Prices

Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) are marked as Firm Fixed Price (FFP) but may be utilized for other contract types such as Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF), Cost, etc. for TOs issued under the resulting contract. Each future TO will be reviewed by the PCO to determine the applicable contract type to meet the requirements. The CLINs marked as FFP in Section B of this IDIQ are established for the sole purpose of facilitating administration of the contract in the Government’s Procurement Desktop Defense (PD2) system. Labor, travel, materials, and other direct costs will have separate CLINs, as applicable, at the TO level. The Government anticipates that most Labor under HTASC will be on CPFF CLINs with travel, materials, and ODCs on Cost CLINs.

All CPFF line items under this contract are term form in accordance with (IAW) FAR 16.306(d)(2).

(a) The contractor is obligated to provide the below, specified LOE within the time period defined (IAW FAR 16.306(d)(4)) for each Contract Line Item Number (CLIN). If the specified LOE changes this paragraph will be revised (via modification to the task order) to reflect the change.

(b) IAW FAR 16.306(a), the fixed fee associated with each CLIN will not vary with actual cost, but may be adjusted as a result of changes in the work to be performed (LOE) under this Task Order (TO).
