1.5 CORRESPONDENCE AND ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION

For ease and speed of communications, both the Government and Contractor shall exchange correspondence and all other documents duplicate in both hard paper copy and electronic format. Inclusion of an electronic copy is in addition to any other parts of the contract that may specify a minimum number of hard copies to be submitted, such as for shop drawing transmittals. Electronic submission can be accomplished by one of the following methods: email, file upload to the following DoD Safe website https://safe.apps.mil/, or through the Resident Management System - Contractor Mode (RMS-CM) software interface with the Resident Management System (RMS). Format for electronic submissions will be in portable document format (.pdf). File naming will be determined by the Contracting Officer and presented at the Preconstruction Conference. Documents include all general correspondence, administrative plans, all material submittals including shop drawings, progress schedules, submittal registers, requests for information (RFIs), Quality Control (QC) test results, pay requests, etc. Paper documents will govern, in the event of discrepancy with the electronic version. Generally, paper documents will also govern where effective receipt dates are required, such as contractor claims submitted under the Disputes clause of the contract and progress payment requests. However in the case of administrative plans, shop drawings and other submittals transmitted for government review, both the electronic and hard copies are required to begin the review process, so the effective date of receipt will be the date when both the electronic and hard copies are received by the government.

1.6 (S-102) CONTRACTOR SUPPLY AND USE OF ELECTRONIC SOFTWARE FOR

PROCESSING DAVIS-BACON ACT CERTIFIED LABOR PAYROLLS

The contractor is encouraged to use a commercially-available electronic system to process and submit certified payrolls electronically to the

If the contractor chooses to use an electronic Davis-Bacon payroll system, then the contractor shall obtain and provide electronic system access to the Government, as required to comply with the Davis-Bacon and related Act regulations over the duration of this construction contract. The access shall include electronic review access by the Government contract administration office to the electronic payroll processing system used by the contractor.

The contractor's provision and use of an electronic payroll processing system shall meet the following basic functional criteria: commercially available; compliant with appropriate Davis Bacon Act payroll provisions in the FAR; able to accommodate the required numbers of employees and subcontractors planned to be employed under the contract; capable of producing an Excel spreadsheet-compatible electronic output of weekly payroll records (format at http://rmssupport.helpserve.com/) for export in an Excel spreadsheet to be imported into the Contractor's Resident Management System - Contractor Mode (RMS-CM), that in turn shall export payroll data to the Government's Resident Management System (RMS);

demonstrated security of data and data entry rights; ability to produce contractor-certified electronic versions of weekly payroll data; ability to identify erroneous entries and track the data/time of all versions of the certified Davis Bacon payrolls submitted to the government over the life of the contract; capable of generating a durable record copy, that is, a CD or DVD and PDF file record of data from the system database at end of the contract closeout. This durable record copy of data from the electronic Davis-Bacon payroll processing system shall be provided to the Government during contract closeout.

All contractor-incurred costs related to the contractor's provision and use of an electronic payroll processing service shall be included in the contractor's price for the overall work under the contract. The costs for Davis-Bacon Act compliance using electronic payroll processing services shall not be a separately bid/proposed or reimbursed item under this contract.

(b) The Contracting Officer may require the Contractor to furnish cost data to justify this portion of the bid if the Contracting Officer believes that the percentages in subparagraphs (a)(1) and (2) of this clause do not bear a reasonable relation to the cost of the work in this contract.

(1) Failure to justify such price to the satisfaction of the Contracting Officer will result in payment, as determined by the Contracting Officer, of--

(i) Actual mobilization costs at completion of mobilization;

(ii) Actual demobilization costs at completion of demobilization;

and

(iii) The remainder of this item in the final payment under this contract.

When both ownership and operating costs cannot be determined for any piece of equipment or groups of similar serial or series equipment from the Contractor's accounting records, costs for that equipment shall be based upon the applicable provisions of EP 1110-1-8, Construction Equipment Ownership and Operating Expense Schedule, Region III.

Working conditions shall be considered to be average for determining equipment rates using the schedule unless specified otherwise by the Contracting Officer. For equipment not included in the schedule, rates for comparable pieces of equipment may be used or a rate may be developed using the formula provided in the schedule. For forward pricing, the schedule in effect at the time of negotiations shall apply. For retroactive pricing, the schedule in effect at the time the work was performed shall apply.

(c) Equipment rental costs are allowable, subject to the provisions of FAR 31.105(d)(ii) and FAR 31.205-36, Rental Costs. Rates for equipment rented from an organization under common control, lease-purchase arrangements, and sale-leaseback arrangements, will be determined using the schedule, except that actual rates will be used for equipment leased from an organization under common control that has an established practice of leasing the same or similar equipment to unaffiliated lessees.

(d) When actual equipment costs are proposed and the total amount of the pricing action exceeds the SAT, the contracting officer shall request the Contractor to submit either certified cost or pricing data, or partial/limited data, as appropriate.
