EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

ALL ADMINISTRATION AND FUTURE TASK ORDERS UNDER THIS MATOC WILL BE

ISSUED BY THE U.S. ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS, HUNTSVILLE CENTER (CEHNC).

1. The objective of this multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract is to procure the services of Small Business firms to perform Military Munitions Response Program (MMRP) responses involving conventional munitions; Environmental Compliance and Remediation Services (ECRS); and Other Munitions-Related Services (OMRS), as necessary to enable lands and waters to be safely and efficiently used for their intended purpose.

2. A target multiple-award IDIQ contract pool consisting of a total of five (5) contractors is planned to result from this acquisition, however the government reserves the right to award more, less, or none at all. All services procured under this IDIQ will use a performance-based work statement at the task order level. The manner in which the requirements are to be accomplished will not be dictated to the IDIQ awardees.

3. The capacity for the multiple-award IDIQ contract pool is $400 Million. The total capacity amount will be shared among all awardees in the multiple-award pool. The IDIQ awardees will only compete among the other awardees in the pool for task order awards.

4. Task orders will be awarded against the basic IDIQ contracts using the fair opportunity procedures discussed in FAR 16.5 in addition to the competitive source selection procedures identified in Section 803 of Public Law 107-107 implemented in DFARS 216.505-70 and Public Law 110-181, Section 843. Each order exceeding $3,500.00 will be awarded on a competitive basis in accordance with FAR 16.505 and DFARS 216.505-70 (c), unless an exception described in FAR 16.505(b)(2) or DFARS 216.505-70(b)(1) applies. Task orders may be Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) or Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF). Based on recent procurement experience, it is anticipated that approximately 85% of the task order efforts will be CPFF for work of an indefinite nature or to support an urgent need. Individual task orders may also contain a combination of FFP and CPFF; e.g., planning and characterization may be FFP while fieldwork may be CPFF.

5. The ordering period shall commence upon the date of award and may continue for a period of five years. This consists of a three-year base period with one (1), two-year option period; if the option is exercised. Labor rates may be escalated at the beginning of the option period (but See FAR 52.222-43 (b) for limitations) as provided in the schedule; however, the labor rates in effect at the time a task order is awarded will remain in effect through completion of the task order, unless modified due to an increase in the Department of Labor wage rates in accordance with FAR 52.222-43, FAR 52.222-44, and Chapter 7 of Engineer Pamphlet 1180-1-1.

6. The Government reserves the right to make staggered awards. Later awarded contracts will have an initial period of performance that will be less than the full three-year base period in duration and will end on the same date as all other contractors which receive a basic IDIQ award.

The option period will be the same for all awardees, if exercised. If determined to be in the Government’s interest to hold discussions, discussions may be held with Offerors remaining in the competitive range after initial awards have been made to some Offerors.

7. When Request for Proposals (RFPs) for task order requirements are issued, offerors must provide sufficient detail with regard to labor categories and hours, material, and travel to allow an evaluation of the proposed cost. Travel costs shall not exceed the amounts allowed under the Joint Travel Regulation. Profit/fee is not allowable on travel costs.

8. For CPFF orders, all hours for direct labor shall be supported by individual daily job cards or time records signed by the individual thereof.

9. CEHNC is the Procurement Contracting Office and no other agency can make changes to the Base Contract. Other USACE offices, upon authorization from CEHNC, may issue task orders.

CEHNC may also transfer task orders to other USACE offices for administration. Only a warranted Contracting Officer (either PCO or ACO) acting within their delegated limits has the authority to issue modifications or otherwise change the terms and conditions of this contract. If an individual other than the Contracting Officer attempts to make changes to the terms and conditions of this contract you shall not proceed with the change and shall immediately notify the Contracting Officer.

10. The minimum guaranteed order for each awardee shall be $3,000.00 for the base period only.

11. THE FOLLOWING ELEMENTS OF [Name of Offeror] PROPOSAL SUBMITTED IN

RESPONSE TO SOLICITATION W912DY-16-R-0077 ARE HEREBY INCORPORATED

INTO THIS CONTRACT.

A. The rates proposed by the contractor in Attachment H are binding cost elements.

These rates shall be maximum allowable rates for task orders issued during the ordering period of this contract. Thus the rates proposed on a task order may be less than those proposed in the contractor’s Attachment H of the IDIQ contract, but may not exceed the maximum rates included in the basic IDIQ contract award unless the applicable wage determination is higher than the contractor base rate in the contract. The Government may extend the ordering period in accordance with terms in FAR Clause 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services. The evaluated rates in effect during the base period or option period will remain in effect during any extension executed under the stated clause; not to exceed six months.

B. Technical Exhibit 6, “Key Subcontractors and Key Personnel”.

C. [Name of Offeror] subcontracting plan dated xx/xx/xxxx [date], and approved by the Contracting Officer on xx/xx/xxxx [date], is hereby incorporated into this contract.

The Government defines the completion of a Performance Based Milestone/Objective as:

an outcome that has been 100% completed and approved and accepted by the approval authority under the Task Order/Contract. Simply meeting the Milestone/Objective, (i.e., submittal of a document for review) is not the same as completion of the Milestone/Objective. Only upon the completion, approval, and acceptance will the Government pay for that Milestone/Objective.

2.14 A Performance Work Statement (PWS) for a Task Order will to every extent possible:

– Define desired results/outcomes.

– Define what level of performance is expected (and ensure it is meaningful, measurable and fair) and use performance standards and Quality Assurance Surveillance Plans
