6.1.1. The hourly burdened labor rates proposed in Binding Labor Rate Schedule are binding upon contract award for the life of the MATOC.
6.1.2. The hourly burdened labor rates shall include direct cost, payroll taxes, insurance, benefits, and any other applicable labor costs, but shall exclude profit.
6.1.3. The binding hourly rates represent the maximum labor rates that the contractor shall use when responding to a Request for Task Order Proposal (RTOP) issued by the Government. These binding rates shall also apply to all modifications. The contractor may propose a lower hourly rate for these labor disciplines when responding to the RTOP based on the tasks identified in the RTOP or modification requests.
Amendment 0001 - Page 8 of 9
6.1.4. Adherence to these rates will be reviewed through submittal of supporting documentation by the contractor with each task order proposal. Failure to propose the binding hourly rate or a lower rate for the listed labor disciplines may result in the Contractor’s task order proposal being rejected for award consideration.
6.1.5. 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 the associated fully burdened labor rate (exclusive of profit) in the proposal submitted in response to the issued RTOP.
6.1.6. If during the Contract Period of Performance, the Contractor’s original personnel are no longer available, the Contractor shall find personnel that have the same qualifications as the previous personnel. The Contractor shall be responsible for negotiating the labor rates for those personnel that have been provided in Binding Labor Rate Schedule. The rates provided in Binding Labor Rate Schedule are the maximum that will be paid by the Government for any replacement personnel.
6.1.7. The maximum 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 2018 for 12 months work, the maximum rates will be the rates that were effective on 1 November 2018. Under the same assumptions, if a modification to the Task Order is required in December 2018, the labor rates effective on 1 November 2018 will apply.
6.2 Binding Cap Rates. The Binding cap rates for use on this contract are provided in the following schedule.

6.2.1. The Binding Cap Rates represent 1) a breakout of the caps/markups incorporated into the Binding Labor Rate Schedule; 2) caps/markups on materials/services; and 3) caps/markups to be applied to future task order modifications.
6.2.2. The Binding Cap Rates represent the maximum rates that the Contractor shall use when responding to a task order request issued by the Government. These Binding Cap Rates shall also apply to all modifications. The Contractor may propose lower rates for these when responding to the task order request or modification requests.
6.2.3. Adherence to these rates will be reviewed through submittal of supporting documentation by the Contractor with each task order proposal. Failure to propose the binding rates or a lower rates may result in the Contractor’s task order proposal being rejected for award consideration.
Amendment 0001 - Page 9 of 9
6.2.4. The Binding Cap 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 Cap Rate schedule. For example, if the rate schedule changes over on 1 November of each year, and a Task Order is issued on 1 September 2018 for 12 months work, the maximum rates will be the rates that were effective on 1 November 2017. Under the same assumptions, if a modification to the Task Order is required in December 2018, the Binding Cap Rates effective on 1 November 2018 will apply.
6.3 Binding Profit Rate. The Profit rate shall be determined at the task order level.
6.4 General.
6.4.1 The amount to be paid to the Contractor for each firm-fixed price task order shall be based on the binding labor rates for the disciplines listed in Paragraph 6.1, the binding cap rates listed in Paragraph 6.2, the binding profit rate cap listed in Paragraph 6.3 and any proposed travel (which has been accepted by the Government) per Paragraph 8.
6.4.2 Applicable Department of Labor Wage Rates (FAR 52.222-41) and Statement of Equivalent Rates for Federal Hires (FAR 52.222-42) will be included at the individual task orders level when the site and location for the work is known.
6.4.3 The Government reserves the right to request information other than certified cost or pricing data from the contractor at the task order level to assess the reasonableness of the proposed task order pricing.
6.4.4 The Government will analyze task order proposals to determine whether they are unbalanced with respect to prices or separately priced line items. Task order proposals that are determined to be materially unbalanced may be rejected. An offer is mathematically unbalanced if it is based on prices, which are significantly less than the cost for some contract line items and significantly overstated in relation to cost for others. In addition, a proposal is materially unbalanced if it is mathematically unbalanced and there is a reasonable doubt that the offer would result in the lowest overall cost to the government, even though it is the lowest evaluated offer.
7. DEPARTMENT OF LABOR WAGES
Be advised that each Task Order Department of Labor Wage Determination, California, San Diego County, 2015-5635, Rev 14, date December 21, 2020 are attached in Section J of this solicitation. For individual task orders written against the contract, the appropriate Department of Labor Wage Determination and Statement of Equivalent Rates for Federal Hires will be provided.
8. TRAVEL
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 https://www.gsa.gov/travel/plan-book/per-diem-rates
Privately owned vehicles shall be paid at the current Government mileage rate in accordance with the FTR.
