This is a total small business set-aside and holds a maximum shared capacity (between all MATOC awards issued under this acquisition) of $48M. There will be a base ordering period of three (3) years and one option period of two (2) years. The Government will not place a total dollar amount, including all task orders written from all of the multiple award contracts, over the maximum combined capacity of the contract. The maximum amount is based on the life of the contract.

1.3 The minimum guarantee for the contract shall be $10K for the base ordering period. There is no separate minimum guarantee for the option ordering period (if the option is exercised). See Section H, paragraph 1.0 for additional information on the minimum guarantee.

1.5 Performance shall be authorized only by issuance of task orders by the Contracting Officer; specific ordering procedures are discussed in the Ordering Procedures paragraph below.

Task orders may be issued by the Contracting Officer electronically via e-mail or by hard copy. The effective date of the task order will be the date signed by the Contracting Officer.

1.6 There is no limit on the number of task orders that may be issued except that a task order may not be issued over the IDIQ contract capacity. The Government may issue simultaneous task orders requiring performance at multiple locations. See contract clause 52.216-19 for minimum and maximum order amounts.

The Contractor shall complete all work described in the Scope of Work for each task order within the performance period of each task order.

1.8 Task orders will be issued only as firm fixed-price (FFP).

In accordance with FAR 16.505(b) all awardees under a MATOC will be given a fair opportunity to be considered for each task order in excess of the micro purchase threshold, unless an exception in FAR 16.505(b)(2) applies.

2.3 Awardees need not be given an opportunity to be considered for a particular order if the Contracting Officer determines that: a) the agency need is of such urgency that providing such opportunity would result in unacceptable delays; b) Only one contractor is capable of providing the services required at the level of quality required because the services ordered are unique or highly specialized; c) the order should be issued on a sole-source basis in the interest of economy and efficiency as a logical follow-on to an order already issued under the contract, provided that all awardees were given a fair opportunity to be considered for the original task order; d) it is necessary to place an order to satisfy a minimum guarantee; e) for orders exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold, a statute expressly authorizes or requires that the purchase be made from a specified source; and f) […(not applicable to this acquisition that is a total SBSA)].
