1. Firm Fixed Pricing Task Orders

1.1 Binding Capped Hourly Labor Rates

The binding capped labor rates for this contract shall be provided by the Offeror in Table 1. The amount to be paid to the contractor for each firm-fixed price task order shall not exceed the “maximum” hourly rates proposed by the contractor for the labor disciplines listed in Table 1, “Binding Labor Rates.”

1.1.1 The capped hourly rates provided on Table 1 shall be “Fully Burdened,” i.e., shall include Overhead (OH), General/Administrative (G&A), Labor Burden Fringes, and any other indirect costs exclusive of profit.

1.1.2 Labor rates used in formulating task order proposals shall not exceed the capped labor rates as of the date of task order requirement.

1.1.3 The Offeror shall indicate for each discipline whether it is employed by the prime or a subcontractor by annotating PRIME or SUB next to the discipline in the first column. For example, “CADD Operator (SUB)”. The rates shown per labor discipline shall be fully burdened rates, exclusive of profit.

1.1.4 The hourly burdened labor rates proposed in the Binding Capped Labor Rate Schedule are binding upon contract award for the life of the MATOC, to include all option periods and extensions. These rates are applicable to both task orders and modifications.

1.1.5 The capped hourly, fully burdened labor rates shall include all applied direct and indirect costs, e.g., direct labor costs, payroll taxes, insurance, benefits, applied OH, applied G&A, and any other applied indirect costs, but shall not include profit.

1.1.6 If a discipline is not listed in the contract rate pricing schedule and is required for the contractor to perform a specific task order, the contractor may propose the required labor category and provide the unburdened labor rate along with all applied direct and indirect costs which formulate the fully burdened labor rate (exclusive of profit) in the proposal submitted in response to the issued Request for Task Order Proposal

(RTOP).

1.1.7 If during the Contract Period of Performance, the Offeror’s original key personnel (prime or subcontracted) are no longer available, the Offeror shall replace these individuals with personnel whom, at a minimum, have the same qualifications as the personnel being replaced. The Offeror shall be responsible for negotiating labor rates for those personnel that do not exceed the rates provided in Table 1, which are the maximum rates the Government will pay for any personnel. The Contractor shall submit the replacement personnel’s qualifications to the Contracting Officer for approval.

1.1.8 The applicable capped labor rates shall be governed by the effective date of the Task Order. Task Orders will use the prices for the 12-month period effective on the date the Task Order is issued. Modifications to Task Orders will reflect the rates of the “current 12-month” binding labor rate schedule. For example, if the rate schedule changes over on 1 November of each year, and a Task Order is issue on 1 September 2020 for 12 months work, the maximum rates will be the rates that were effective on 1 November 2019. Under the same assumptions, if a modification to the Task Order is required in December 2020, the labor rates effective on 1 November 2020 will apply.

1.1.9 The Offeror has the responsibility to provide labor rates that comply with all potential Service Contract Act wage determinations and/or Davis Bacon wage decisions for each labor discipline subject to those wage determinations/wage decisions. The Government will provide the applicable wage determination(s) for the specific geographic location of the task orders in the RTOP.

1.1.10 Provide one (1) rate per labor discipline, regardless of whether the individuals employed for that discipline are directly employed or subcontracted.

1.2 Firm-Fixed Price Escalation and Maximum Profit

1.2.1 The escalation rate applied to years 2 through 5 shall be provided by the Offeror in Table 2:

Table 2: Escalation Rate

Profit will be negotiated at the task order level for each Firm-Fixed Price task order but shall not exceed the maximum profit rate provided by the Offeror in Table 3, “Maximum Profit.” The maximum profit shall be binding for the life of the contract, to include all option periods and extensions, and shall be the maximum profit the Contractor will be allowed to propose for all firm-fixed-price task orders and modifications issued under this contract.

1.2.2 The Contractor may propose a lower profit when responding to a RTOP (or subsequent modifications) based on the tasks identified in the request and the risk associated with the project.

1.2.3 The maximum profit on this contract shall be provided by the Offeror in Table 3:

Table 3: Maximum Profit

2. Cost Reimbursable Task Orders

The contractor shall have the ability to support cost reimbursement task orders (i.e., an adequate cost accounting system for determining costs applicable to the contract order and acceptable purchasing system). The Government reserves the right to request a Defense Contract Audit Agency DCAA Audit prior to or after contract award. Additionally, each cost reimbursable task order issued will be subject to DCAA Audit.

2.1 Accounting System

The contractor will use DCAA approved forward pricing rates or Certified Public Accountant (CPA) established cost pools in accordance with FAR Part 31 for applied Overhead, G&A, and other indirect applied rates, and shall have an accounting system that is in compliance with Cost Accounting Standards (CAS) [large business firms only] and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).

2.2 Fixed Fee

Fixed Fee will be negotiated on each cost reimbursement task order. In no case can the fixed fee exceed the statutory limit of 10% for cost reimbursement task orders, in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulations 15.404-4.

2.2.1 The maximum Fixed Fee shall be provided by the Offeror in Table 4, Maximum Fixed Fee, and is binding upon contract award for the life of the MATOC, to include all option periods and extensions. These rates are applicable to both task orders and modifications.

Table 4: Maximum Fixed Fee

3. Binding Capped Rates for Firm Fixed and Cost Reimbursable Task Orders

The Binding Capped Rates represent the maximum Overhead, G&A, or other Indirect rates that the Contractor shall use when responding to a RTOP issued by the Government. These rates are applicable to both Firm Fixed Price and Cost Reimbursable contracts and shall also apply to all modifications. The Offeror may use lower rates in proposals, but not higher.

3.1 The Binding Capped Rates shall be the maximum applied OH, G&A and other indirect rates used for the duration of the contract. The Binding Capped Rates will not be adjusted upward as a result of an audit of the contract or the follow-on task orders. The Contractor should use the actual labor rate(s) paid to the employee(s) for each discipline with the applied Binding Capped Rates for OH, G&A and other indirect rates. A Contractor can propose lower OH, G&A and other indirect rates for a specific task order; however, those proposed lower rates become the binding capped rates for that specific task order. The proposed task order indirect rates will not be adjusted upward as a result of an audit of the contract or the specific task order.

3.2 The Binding Capped Rates for this contract shall be provided by the Offeror in Table 5. The capped rates provided by the Offeror are binding upon contract award for the life of the MATOC, to include all option periods and extensions. These rates are applicable to both task orders and modifications, unless adjusted in accordance with paragraph 3.1.

4. Department of Labor Wage Rates

The appropriate Department of Labor Wage Determination/Decision will be provided for individual Task Orders issued against the contract.

5. Travel The Contractor shall perform all travel and attend all meetings necessary for completion of the work required by the Task Orders. Per Diem (lodging and MI & E expenses) shall be paid at the current Government rates in accordance with the Federal Travel Regulation (FTR) per person per calendar day spent in travel status. No per diem will be paid for travel less than the number of hours per day stated in the current FTR. Per Diem rate information may be obtained at http://www.defensetravel.dod.mil/. Actual cost of transportation by public conveyance (plane, limited to coach class) shall be paid. Air travel shall (if possible) be planned in advance in order to acquire the best prices available. Privately owned vehicles shall be paid at the current Government mileage rate in accordance with the FTR. The maximum amount paid for an airline ticket shall be the cost of travel via coach class. No fee or profit will be paid on travel.

Task Orders within the MATOC may be Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee (CPFF) or Firm Fixed Price (FFP) task orders, depending upon project risk.

The base ordering period for this MATOC is five (5) years. There will be one (1) option ordering period of three (3) years, with a total ordering period up to eight (8) years from the date of contract award. The Government’s decision to exercise an option will be contingent upon satisfactory contractor past performance and an informal survey of current market conditions. The decision to exercise the option is at the discretion of the Government. The minimum guarantee amount for this MATOC (to include all option periods) is $2,500.00.

TYPES OF PROJECTS

Projects will vary in size, complexity, and location, and will require a high degree of flexibility and adaptability on the part of the contractor to respond quickly and effectively. All work will be time-sensitive in nature, necessitating an expedited response to mitigate threat to life and property and/or operational impacts to the Government.

Work contemplated under this MATOC may include such missions as:

Security and Defense Mission Support.

Support to USACE Protective Design Center of Expertise (USACE-PDC) and other federal agencies for time sensitive construction response actions in support of Security and Defense initiatives.

Support to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

The DHS mission is to secure our homeland by leading a unified national effort to protect America. The DHS prevents and deters terrorist attacks and protects against and responds to threats and hazards to the nation.

Homeland security includes, but is not limited to, protection of transportation systems, disruption of threats to installations, protection of critical infrastructure and key assets, positioning of resources to be ready for defense, and activities to ensure health and safety of the United States of America and its citizens.

Disaster Support Response.

Disaster Support Responses provide time-sensitive construction/rehabilitation/flood risk reduction support. Projects may include, but are not limited to, roads (primary, secondary and short-term temporary fixes), bridges, irrigation systems, coastal and marine resource management and development, dams and other water related structures, electric distribution systems, water and sanitation systems schools, clinics or hospitals, emergency power and other civil engineering works.

In addition, under USACE responsibilities to FEMA, the RDI MATOC may be used to provide USACE Mission Support through the local MSCs or District Commander to address debris removal and/or unwatering activities, provided the requested services are within the scope of the contract.

Infrastructure Construction Support.

The RDI MATOCs may support various time critical infrastructure construction repair/rehabilitation projects with the most prevalent being rehabilitation of levee systems. However, infrastructure construction support may include work on other essential infrastructure facilities, such as: roads, bridges, dams, utility systems (power, water, sewer, telephone, telecommunications) railways, subways, airports, and harbors, which are publicly owned, regulated or maintained by the government. This includes work on buildings, structures or other real property, when necessary to support a larger infrastructure mission assignment.

NOTE: Each Task Order Request for Proposal will identify when the contractor must mobilize. Emergency recovery actions may require mobilization within 24 hours of task order award. Projects may require incidental design and/or ecological/environmental, hazardous waste recovery, and munitions work.

PROJECT LOCATIONS

Projects may occur anywhere in the United States (U.S.) under the resulting MATOC. “United States” is defined as all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and outlying areas as defined by Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR)

2.101. The Offeror shall be prepared to respond to any location within the U.S., as defined above.

ON-RAMP PROCEDURES

The Government reserves the right to utilize an On Ramp concept, consistent with FAR 16.504(c)(1)(ii)(A), to maintain sufficient competition among the Indefinite Delivery Contact (IDC) awardees throughout the period of performance by adding additional IDC holders. This will be done by requesting and evaluating proposals in a manner consistent with the original IDC solicitation.

The following course of action is the anticipated procedure should the Contracting Officer determine to announce a new On Ramp competition to add additional IDC holders.

(a) First, an On Ramp solicitation will be synopsized on the Federal Business Opportunities website (www.fbo.gov).

The solicitation shall state that it is issued for the sole purpose of refreshing the pool of contractors for this IDC.

The solicitation shall identify, by name and contract number, the contractors who have already been awarded an IDC. The solicitation shall contain the description of the IDC.

(b) Although the solicitation must carry a new Procurement Identification Number (i.e, W9128F-XX-R-XXXX – actual number will issued when on-ramp RFP is issued), Volume 1 of the solicitation shall be a mirror image of the original Volume 1 of the solicitation with the only exception(s) being incorporation of any amendments issued to the original solicitation and any changes to clauses from the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clauses or any supplements to the FAR. The potential offerors shall be required to meet the same minimum evaluation criteria established in the original IDC solicitation for each evaluation factor where minimum criteria was established. The evaluation and selection of awardees will be on the same basis as the evaluation and award criteria used for the original IDC award. However, On Ramping offerors will not be evaluated against existing IDC holders.

(c) The On Ramp solicitation will identify the total anticipated number of new contracts intended to be awarded in response to the On Ramp solicitation notice. However, at no time will the total number of contractors in the MATOC pool exceed the maximum number specified in the original IDC solicitation. If no maximum is specified, the total number of contractors in the MATOC pool will not exceed 2 more than the number originally awarded in the IDC.

(d) The determination to announce a new On Ramp competition may be made on an annual or biannual basis, as determined by the Contracting Officer. The contract period of performance for any IDC holder selected in accordance with the solicitation’s On Ramp procedures will run concurrent with the existing IDC period of performance. The terms and conditions of any resulting awards will be materially identical to the terms and conditions of the existing IDC holders.

http://www.fbo.gov/

(e) The Contracting Officer reserves the right to not exercise remaining IDC option periods for IDC awardees if it is determined the contractor has not consistently participated in Task Order Requests for Proposals (TO RFPs). If a contractor does not consistently participate in TO RFPs for reasons other than bonding and/or maximum ordering limitations (MOL), then (a) the contractor acknowledges that abstaining from participation may be reflected on any contract performance evaluation, and (b) the base IDC Contracting Officer may determine that it is in the best interest of the Government to terminate the contract or not exercise any remaining IDC option periods.

(f) Immediately upon on-ramping award, each selected contractor is eligible to submit a proposal in response to any task order solicitation and will be eligible to receive task order awards with the same rights and obligations as any other contractor in the MATOC pool.
