2.0 CREDIT CARD CONTRACT VALUE

It is estimated that the maximum value of credit card work required will not exceed $8,000,000/year. If the Government’s requirements for services set forth in the solicitation do not result in orders in the amount described as “estimated maximum,” the event shall not constitute the basis for an equitable price adjustment under this contract.

2.1 Individual Task Order Limitations

Credit card task orders will not be more than $100,000.00 and will not be less than $2,000.00.

3.0 ORDERING PROCEDURES

The DPW Project Manager (DPW PM) will receive a job order request and schedule a mandatory site visit with the Contractor and qualified sources for accomplishing the required work. The DPW PM will receive subcontractor quotes and complete a JOC Credit Card Order Form (See Attachment J13). The form will include a project description, general scope of work, suggested source, and source bid. The completed form will be sent to the Contractor along with the subcontractor quotes, scope of work, and a copy of the job order request. The Contractor will review and sign the JOC Credit Card Order Form and return it to the DPW PM. The signature from the Contractor’s Program Manager shall indicate acceptance of the suggested source and source bid, and the signed JOC Credit Card Order Form shall be the Contractor’s proposal for the required work. The DPW PM will complete the task order package and deliver it to the Contracting Officer for review and approval. Upon approval, the Contracting Officer will issue a task order to the Contractor for accomplishment of the required work.

4.0 PAYMENT PROCEDURES

Payments will generally be made after the final inspection has been performed and all punchlist items have been completed. However, partial payments may be made at the discretion of the DPW Project Manager if deemed appropriate. The Contractor shall pay subcontractors within seven days of receipt of the Government’s payment.

5.0 RATE OF WAGES

The Davis Bacon Wage Rates described in contract paragraph H.24 also apply for credit card task orders. It shall be the Contractor’s responsibility to ensure that all subcontractors comply with the required wage rates.
