Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC)

Environmental Consulting Services for Projects within the Geographic Boundaries of the Southwestern Division (SWD) and Projects assigned to the Southwestern Division in accordance with UAI 5107.102-100 and ER 5-1-10

17 April 2020

1. This contract is a Hubzone Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) for Environmental Consulting Services for Projects within the Geographic Boundaries of the Southwestern Division (SWD) and Projects Assigned to the Southwestern Division (within the Continental United States) in accordance with UAI 5107.102-100 (Policy for USACE Acceptance of Work) and ER 5-1-10 to be executed through Solicitation No.

W912BV-20-R-0028. The collective ceiling for this contract is $20,000,000. The minimum guaranteed amount for this IDIQ contract is $2,500. There is no minimum guaranteed amount for any subsequent option period.

2. The Contract Line Item structure shall be established at the Task Order level. Pricing of Task Orders shall be pursuant to the instructions and limitations in accordance with FAR Clause 52.216-19, Order Limitation. The Contractor shall complete the Discipline Rate Schedules in Tables 1 and 2 below for the 3-year Base Period, the 2-year Option Period and the Additional 6-month Period (do not apply escalation to the 6-month period, as these rates must be the same as the Option Period Year 2 rates). An hourly rate must be provided for each discipline for every year within the Base and Option Period; failure to provide an hourly rate for all disciplines will result in the Offeror’s proposal being deemed ineligible for further consideration for contract award. These rates will apply to the prime contractor and all teaming subcontractors. A list of all teaming subcontractors must be submitted with the proposal.

3. All costs associated with travel shall be in accordance with the Joint Travel Regulations

(JTR).

4. The Period of Performance for the base period for all contracts will be from the date of award + 36 months. In addition, there will be one two-year option period (exercisable at the government’s discretion) not to exceed 5 years. However, if Contract Clause 52.217-8 is exercised it will extend the contract for an additional 6 months at the existing Year 5 rates.

5. To clarify, FAR Clause 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, the following will apply: An Option period of two years is included as part of this contract. The Government may exercise the option at any time; however, it will be accomplished no later than the last day of the basic contract period of performance. The option period will add an extension to the period of performance.

6. This is a firm fixed price type contract for the services specified in Section C, Statement of Work that may or may not be required during the contract period. The Government is setting forth its anticipated requirements and its obligation under this contract. If the Government has any requirements for this type of work described Section C, Statement of Work, during the contract period, the Government will procure said services on Task Orders under this contract on a per Job basis.

7. To clarify FAR Clause 52.216-18, ORDERING the following will apply:

(a) Services for each task order may be requested either verbally or in writing. A letter request for proposal will be issued by the Contracting Officer. Oral or telecommunications requests will be issued only by the Contracting Officer.

(b) The Government request for proposal will delineate (1) General Scope of Work, (2) Location of Work, (3) Character and Extent of Services, (4) Technical Requirements with supplemental or complement those contained in Section C of this basic contract, and (5) time period(s) within which the work must be performed.

(c) The Contractor will prepare an estimate of his time and cost(s) to perform the work, and submit his proposal in writing to the Contracting Officer within the time specified. Verbal proposals, when so requested and authorized, will be directed only to the Contracting Officer.

Itemized cost proposals will strictly correspond to the units contained in Section B of this contract.

(d) Each task order will be discussed by the Contractor and the Contracting Officer’s Representative, as necessary, to develop a mutual understanding of:

(1) Type and scope of work to be accomplished, including accuracy criteria.

(2) End product required by the Contracting Officer.

(3) Commencement and completion dates required by the Contracting Officer.

(4) Existing site conditions, survey control, and other available data.

(5) A fair and reasonable cost to perform the work.

(e) Time periods within which required work must be accomplished will be defined in each task order placed against the basic contract. Each task order will contain the agreed to scope of work, type(s) of service(s) to be performed, specific deliverable items, and the negotiated fixed-price cost for performing the work.

8. The Contractor will not accept instructions issued by any person employed by the U.S.

Government or otherwise, other than the Contracting Officer, or the Authorized Representative of the Contracting Officer acting within the limits of his authority.

9. The Contractor will assign a member or employee who will act as Project Manager during the course of this contract (or during the course of a task order if this is an indefinite task order contract). This official will be responsible for affording liaison between the contract forces and the Contracting Officer. This designation will be in writing and a copy furnished to the Contracting Officer.

10. Accounting and appropriation data will be established at the time of award for each task order.

11. Payments will be made on the Contractor’s estimate of work accomplished upon submission of Engineer Form 93, “Payment Estimate-Contract Performance.” No partial payment will be made for task orders of less than 30 calendar day’s duration. Each task order will include payment information.

** Denotes Key Personnel (both tables): Resumes required

NOTES (applicable to both tables):

1. Offerors are to submit their labor rates for each of the ordering periods at the time of proposal submission. Offerors shall assume that Section B rates should be established based on 120 to 180 days from the proposal due date.

2. The offeror shall complete only one Table 1 and Table 2. For each labor discipline, the offeror shall annotate whether the discipline provided is Prime or Subcontractor.

Each table shall show one rate per labor discipline, including those provided by subcontractors. The offeror may not have all personnel on staff. Therefore, if those personnel are subcontracted, their rates shall be provided in the tables as well. All contracted personnel shall be identified on the tables following “(SUB)” after the title of this discipline title. For example, “Cultural Resources Compliance Specialist (SUB)”. The rates shown per labor discipline shall be fully burdened rates, exclusive of profit.

NOTE: If during the Contract Period of Performance, the Contractor’s original subcontracted personnel are no longer available to the Prime, the Prime shall find a subcontractor that has at a minimum, the same qualifications as the previous subcontracted personnel. The Prime shall be responsible for negotiating the labor rates for those personnel that have been provided in this RFP. Those rates provided are the maximum that will be paid by the Government for any replacement personnel.

3. See Sections L and M for complete discussion of the content of the Cost/Price

Proposal and its evaluation. The Pricing Schedule is only one part of the contents of the required Cost/Price Proposal.

4. Subcontractors: The subcontractors who will be included by the prime in the Pricing

Schedule and in the full cost/price proposal are those identified by the prime contractor as “team subcontractors”. Team subcontractors are subcontractors that the prime used in their proposal to the Government to qualify for this contact and/or are subcontractors that the prime wishes to use during the life of the contract without having to obtain competition.

5. The job titles and classifications noted in the Pricing Schedule at the solicitation phase are the Government’s anticipated job titles and classifications to be used over the life of the contract. All offerors must include and price all of these job titles and classifications, whether through the use of personnel from the prime’s firm or through subcontractors. In other words, the prime contractor must submit completely filled out Tables 1 and 2 (no blanks) and identify any job title and price by a team subcontractor. Offerors shall not modify by adding to or deleting from the Government’s list of anticipated job titles and classifications for both prime and subcontractor(s). If the offeror has a job title and/or classification that is equivalent to one on the Government’s list, they can price that job title using the Government job title and/or classification as a substitute.

6. The Government has shown the job classifications within job titles as Senior, Staff, and Junior levels. The following definitions apply to the use of these classifications:

o Senior Level of the Profession: Job technical and oversight management with some review function.

o Staff Level of the Profession: Hands-on work effort; responsible for most of the work on a task order.

o Junior Level of the Profession: Relatively new to the profession; still in an apprenticeship, not fully credentialed; works under the supervision of a staff or senior level person.

7. The Offeror and its subcontractors cannot separate the job titles into different classifications other than the Senior, Staff, and Junior scheme. Offeror can define their scheme and give definitions of the levels in their proposal. As stated above, Offerors will not use job titles that will not charge directly to task order work and use of a job title and/or classification not included in the Government’s list will be negotiated on a task order basis.

8. The requirement for any other direct labor cost not included in the Government’s list will be negotiated on a task order basis. As stated above the unit prices entered into the Pricing Schedule will be “fully burdened” as defined above. Please note that equipment, material, supply, travel and laboratory costs will be handled as noted below.

9. All Other Direct Costs (ODCs) including but not limited to reproduction, mailing/shipping, equipment, material and supply direct costs will be negotiated as required on each Task Order and not pre-priced or listed on the Pricing Schedule.

The Contractor shall present the Government, as part of each task order’s cost proposal, the equipment, material and supply costs for the task order with support for the proposed costs which indicate that they are fair and reasonable. The Contractor shall present the Government, with the task order’s cost proposal, with at least two quotes on required equipment, materials, and supplies obtained from subcontractors by the Prime Contractor to support the Contractor’s proposed costs. The Contractor will be allowed to apply the pre-negotiated G&A on ODCs Markup and profit as negotiated on each task order to equipment, material and supply costs.

10. Per Diem (lodging and MI & E expenses) shall be paid at the current Government rates in accordance with the Joint Travel Regulations (JTR) 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 JTR. Per diem rate information may be obtained at https://secureapp2.hqda.pentagon.mil/perdiem/. Actual cost of transportation by public conveyance (plane, limited to coach class) shall be paid. Privately owned vehicles shall be paid at the current Government mileage rate in accordance with the JTR. If required by a task order under this contract, cost for travel, lodging, meals, vehicle rental, and mileage are allowable subject to the limitations of FAR 31.205-46. These costs will be negotiated on each task order. The contractor is not allowed to apply indirect costs (G&A) to travel costs.

11. Any labor classification rates or other direct costs for the prime or subcontractors that are needed during the life of the contract but were not included in the Pricing Schedule will be negotiated on the task order and added by modification to the contract as necessary. However, the fully burdened hourly labor rates entered on the Pricing Schedule and thereby, proposed by the Contractor will be the contract’s rates and prices for the period for which they are proposed (base contract period) and will not be renegotiated during that period.

12. Task Orders: Services will be ordered by the Government in accordance with Section I, Contract Clause entitled “Ordering”.
