SUMMARY OF CHANGES
SECTION 00800 - SPECIAL CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS
The following have been added by full text:
52.204-9002
52.204-9002 REPORTING OF CONTRACTOR MANPOWER DATA ELEMENTS
(a) Scope. The following sets forth contractual requirements for reporting of contractor labor work year equivalents (also called Contractor Man-year Equivalents (CMEs)) in support of the Army, pursuant to 10 U.S.C.
129a, 10 U.S.C. 2461(g), Section 343 of P.L. 106-65, and 32 CFR 668. Reporting shall be accomplished electronically by direct contractor submission to the secure Army Web Site: https://ecmra.mil. Information on the background, purposes, and significance of this reporting requirement, and the 32 CFR 668 Final Rule as published in the Federal Register, can be found at this Web Site. In addition, a Help Desk function, detailed instructions on what and how to report, FAQs, and a site demonstration are available. The Army’s objective is to collect as much significant CME data as possible to allow accurate reporting to Congress and for effective Army planning. The reporting data elements should not be viewed as an “all or nothing” requirement. Even partial reporting, e.g., direct labor hours, appropriation data, place of performance, Army customer, etc., will be helpful.
(b) Applicability. This reporting requirement applies to services covered by Federal Supply Class or Service codes for “Research and Development,” and “Other Services and Construction.” Report submissions shall not contain classified information. (Also see “Exemptions” at (d) below.)
(c) Requirements. The contractor is required to report the following contractor manpower information, associated with performance of this contract action in support of Army requirements, for all covered contracts, to the Office, Assistant Secretary of the Army (Manpower and Reserve Affairs) (ASA(M&RA)), using the secure Army data collection web-site at https://ecmra.mil. (Other information requirements associated with the manpower data collection (contract and task or delivery order numbers; appropriation data and amounts; total estimated value of contract; federal supply class or service code; major Army organizational element receiving or reviewing work;
beginning and ending data for reporting period; place of performance; name, address, and point of contact for contractor; etc.) are specified and explained at the web site.)
(1) Labor Hours. Composite direct labor hours, and the value of those indirect labor hours plus compensation related costs for direct labor hours ordinarily included in the indirect pools.
(2) Rates. Alternatively, contractors may report two distinct, relevant (annualized) composite or average indirect labor rates in lieu of raw indirect labor hours and the value of those indirect hours. Such rates shall be annualized average estimates for the reporting contractor and need not be developed for each reporting period.
Either method chosen should be consistently reported.
(d) Exemption(s). If the contractor is unable to comply with these reporting requirements without creating a whole new cost allocation system or system of records (such as a payroll accounting system), or due to similar insurmountable practical or economic reasons, the contractor may claim an exemption to at least a portion of the reporting requirement by certifying in writing to the contracting officer the clear underlying reason(s) for exemption from the specified report data element(s), and further certifying that they do not otherwise have to provide the exempted information, in any form, to the United States Government. The “self-exemption” will apply to all contract actions involving the contractor and will be reviewed and approved by the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army (Procurement), in coordination with the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army (Force Management and Resources), whose decision is final in this matter.
(e) Uses and Safeguarding of Information. The information submitted will be treated as contractor proprietary when associated with a contractor name of contract number.
W912WJ20B0001
(f) Subcontract Data. The contractor shall ensure that all reportable subcontract data is timely reported to the data collection web site (citing this contract/order number). At the discretion of the prime contractor, this reporting may be done directly by subcontractors to the data collection site; or by the prime contractor after consolidating and rationalizing all significant data from their subcontractors.
(g) Report schedule. The contractor is required to report the required information to the ASA(M&RA) data collection web site annually. The reporting period will be from the beginning of the period of performance until 30 September of each government fiscal year, not to exceed 12 months and must be reported by 31 October of each calendar year.
(h) Reporting Flexibility. Contractors are encouraged to communicate with the Help Desk identified at the data collection web site to resolve reporting difficulties. The web site reporting pages include a “Remarks” field to accommodate non-standard data entries if needed to facilitate simplified reporting and to minimize reporting burdens arising out of unique circumstances. Changes to facilitate reporting may be authorized by the contracting officer or the Help Desk (under HQDA policy direction and oversight).
CMRA
The Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Army (Manpower & Reserve Affairs) operates and maintains a secure Army data collection site where the contractor will report ALL contractor manpower (including subcontractor manpower) required for performance of this contract to include all task orders and modifications. The contractor is required to completely fill in all the information in the format described at the following web address:
https://ecmra.army.mil. This website address includes links to a helpdesk and a user’s manual. As part of its submission, the contractor will also provide the estimated total cost (if any) incurred to comply with this reporting requirement. The reporting period will be from the beginning of the period of performance until 30 September of each government fiscal year, not to exceed 12 months and must be reported by 31 October of each calendar year.
The awarded contract shall include A CLIN for the Base period that shall cover cost if any for the initial CMR database setup and the annual requirement for CMR reporting. Further information and frequently asked questions are located at the following website: https://www.ecmra.mil/Login.aspx Contractors may direct technical questions to (703) 377-6199.
