52.215-21 REQUIREMENTS FOR CERTIFIED COST OR PRICING DATA AND DATA OTHER THAN

CERTIFIED COST OR PRICING DATA -- MODIFICATIONS (OCT 2010)

(a) Exceptions from certified cost or pricing data.

(1) In lieu of submitting certified cost or pricing data for modifications under this contract, for price adjustments expected to exceed the threshold set forth at FAR 15.403-4 on the date of the agreement on price or the date of the award, whichever is later, the Contractor may submit a written request for exception by submitting the information described in the following subparagraphs. The Contracting Officer may require additional supporting information, but only to the extent necessary to determine whether an exception should be granted, and whether the price is fair and reasonable--

(i) Identification of the law or regulation establishing the price offered. If the price is controlled under law by periodic rulings, reviews, or similar actions of a governmental body, attach a copy of the controlling document, unless it was previously submitted to the contracting office.

(ii) Information on modifications of contracts or subcontracts for commercial items.

(A) If--

(1) The original contract or subcontract was granted an exception from certified cost or pricing data requirements because the price agreed upon was based on adequate price competition or prices set by law or regulation, or was a contract or subcontract for the acquisition of a commercial item; and

(2) The modification (to the contract or subcontract) is not exempted based on one of these exceptions, then the Contractor may provide information to establish that the modification would not change the contract or subcontract from a contract or subcontract for the acquisition of a commercial item to a contract or subcontract for the acquisition of an item other than a commercial item.

(B) For a commercial item exception, the Contractor shall provide, at a minimum, information on prices at which the same item or similar items have previously been sold that is adequate for evaluating the reasonableness of the price of the modification. Such information may include--

(1) For catalog items, a copy of or identification of the catalog and its date, or the appropriate pages for the offered items, or a statement that the catalog is on file in the buying office to which the proposal is being submitted.

Provide a copy or describe current discount policies and price lists (published or unpublished), e.g., wholesale, original equipment manufacturer, or reseller. Also explain the basis of each offered price and its relationship to the established catalog price, including how the proposed price relates to the price of recent sales in quantities similar to the proposed quantities.

(2) For market-priced items, the source and date or period of the market quotation or other basis for market price, the base amount, and applicable discounts. In addition, describe the nature of the market.

(3) For items included on an active Federal Supply Service Multiple Award Schedule contract, proof that an exception has been granted for the schedule item.

(2) The Contractor grants the Contracting Officer or an authorized representative the right to examine, at any time before award, books, records, documents, or other directly pertinent records to verify any request for an exception under this clause, and the reasonableness of price. For items priced using catalog or market prices, or law or regulation , access does not extend to cost or profit information or other data relevant solely to the Contractor's determination of the prices to be offered in the catalog or marketplace.

(b) Requirements for certified cost or pricing data. If the Contractor is not granted an exception from the requirement to submit certified cost or pricing data, the following applies:

(1) The Contractor shall submit certified cost or pricing data, data other than certified cost or pricing data, and supporting attachments in accordance with the instructions contained in Table 15-2 of FAR 15.408, which is incorporated by reference with the same force and effect as though it were inserted here in full text. The instructions in Table 15-2 are incorporated as a mandatory format to be used in this contract, unless the Contracting Officer and the Contractor agree to a different format and change this clause to use Alternate I.

As soon as practicable after agreement on price, but before award (except for unpriced actions), the Contractor shall submit a Certificate of Current Cost or Pricing Data, as prescribed by FAR 15.406-2.

(End of clause)

(b) Amount of required bonds. Unless the resulting contract price is $150,000 or less, the successful offeror shall furnish performance and payment bonds to the Contracting Officer as follows:

(1) Performance bonds (Standard Form 25). The penal amount of performance bonds at the time of contract award shall be 100 percent of the original contract price.

(b) A corporate officer or a designee of the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer, in writing, before entering into a subcontract with a party that is identified, in SAM Exclusions, as being ineligible for the award of Defense contracts or subcontracts because it is owned or controlled by the government of a country that is a state sponsor of terrorism.

Solicitation Overview

Stand Alone “C” Type, Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Contract, payable in U.S. Dollars ($)

No additional sums will be payable due to any escalation in the cost of labor, materials, or equipment.

The awardees’ failure to properly estimate or accurately predict the cost and / or difficulty in achieving the results required by this contract is not reimbursable.

Design-Bid-Build (DBB) Project

Single-Phase (Best-Value) Selection Process

Proposals will be evaluated by a Technical Evaluation Board (TEB)

► The TEB will include advisory members from the MOD and IAF.

► The MOD and IAF will have access to contractor proposals and information.

Award by the government is anticipated by FY17 First Quarter.

Slide 11

Amendment 0001_Attachment 03

Magnitude of Construction

• Per DFARS 236.204, Estimated Price Range of this contract (base and all options) is between $10,000,000 and $25,000,000. The use of this range does not mean that the government has estimates ranging from $10,000,000 to $25,000,000, or that the cost falls near the middle of the range, but only that the government believes the price to fall at a specific point which is within this range of values specified in the DFARS. A project estimated at $10,000,001 or one estimated at $24,999,999 would fall within the range.

No inference should be drawn as to where this project is believed to fall within the range.

Slide 12

Amendment 0001_Attachment 03

Basis for Award

• The award will be made to the offeror whose total evaluated price and technical proposal provides the best value to the Government.

• Experience is slightly more important than Past Performance; Past Performance is slightly more important than Management Plan.

• ALL NON-PRICED FACTORS COMBINED ARE APPROXIMATELY

EQUAL TO PRICE AS AN INDIVIDUAL FACTOR.

• The government reserves the right to accept other than the lowest price offer and to reject any or all offers. Unreasonably high or low proposal prices may be grounds for eliminating a proposal from the competition based upon the assessment that the Offeror does not understand the requirement or the Offeror has made an unreasonable proposal.

• To receive consideration for award, a rating of no less than “Acceptable” must be achieved for each of the non-price factors.
