3. 5152.237-9000 ADJUSTMENT TO CONTRACTOR’S COEFFICIENT

FOR OPTION YEARS (JOB ORDER CONTRACTS) (AFARS)

“Pricing” of option periods, include consideration of any adjustments must be performed by an economic price adjustment for those periods, as follows:

An economic adjustment will be applied to the contract coefficient(s) addressing changes in the cost of labor, equipment and material in the Unit Price Book (UPB) (this includes consideration of Davis Bacon issues). This allows for economic increase or decrease of the prices in the UPB and serves to adjust line item prices by the percentage increase or decrease of the economic trend in the construction market. The economic price adjustment will be based on the Building Cost Index (BCI) found in the Market Trend pages of the Engineering News Record (ENR). The economic adjustment is not applied to the cost items comprising the coefficient. No upward adjustment can apply to task orders awarded prior to the effective date of the adjustment, regardless of the date of commencement of work thereunder.

The adjustment will be made in accordance with the following equation. The resulting revised coefficient(s) must be applied throughout the option year.

N = C + i

Where: N = New Coefficient C = Base Year Coefficient i = Change Factor (% increase or decrease from base to option year)

The Index Factor, i, shall be computed according to the following equation:

i = BCIN – 1

BCIC

Where:

BCIN is the Building Cost Index, published in the ENR, for the month prior to the effective date of the option period.

BCIC is the Building Cost Index, as published in the ENR, on the date of the award of the contract. The BCIC is _________, based on the award date of ____________.

If the BCI or the ENR ceases to be published, the parties shall agree on substitute indices.

EXAMPLE: For the base year of a contract the coefficient is 1.10. The cost to the government for a line item whose cost is $100.00 is 1.10 x $100.00 = $110.00.

Option Year 1. For the first option year the coefficient will be adjusted as follows:

i = BCIN -1 = 3111.86 -1 = 1.0133 -1 = .0133

BCIC 3071.10

The new coefficient would be calculated as follows:

N = C + i = 1.10 + 0.0133 = 1.1133

The above line item under the option period would be 1.1133 x $100.00 = $111.33.

Option Year 2. For the second option year, if the BCI for the month prior to the effective date of the option period was 3002.99, the coefficient will be adjusted as follows:

i = BCIN – 1 = 3062.99 – 1 = .9974 – 1 = -0.0026

BCIC 3071.10

The new coefficient would be calculated as follows:

N = C + i = 1.10 - -0.0026 – 1.0974

The above line item under the option period would be 1.0974 x $100.00 = $109.74.

Note 1. Round calculations for the Change Factor (i) to the nearest ten thousandth.

Note 2. ENR indices for calculation of coefficients for the option years are taken from the McGraw Hill publication, ENR, published during the month prior to the effective date of the option. The ENR Index for the base year (contract award) is the most recent ENR Index published for the month prior to initial contract award.

4. TASK ORDER LIMITATIONS (Regulatory Changes)

If regulations change during the course of the contract, the task order limitations may be adjusted accordingly by exercise of a unilateral modification. JOC procedures allow a task order to exceed the $500k maximum if the Contracting Officer determines that it is in the government's best interest. If a task order exceeds $500k, it will require a bilateral agreement between the Contracting Officer and the contractor.

5. PERFORMANCE AND PAYMENT BONDS

Per Army Federal Regulation Supplement (AFARS) 17.9004-2(h), “All cost associated with bonding shall be included in the coefficient.”
