ITEM 6C. MULTIYEAR CONTRACT (Y, N)

A multi-year contract means a contract for the purchase of supplies or
services for more than 1, but not more than 5, program years. Such
contracts are issued under specific congressional authority for specific
programs. A multi-year contract may provide that performance under the
contract during the second and subsequent years of the contract is
contingent upon the appropriation of funds, and (if it does so provide)
may provide for a cancellation payment to be made to the contractor if
appropriations are not made. The key distinguishing difference between
multi-year contracts and multiple year contracts is that multi-year
contracts buy more than 1 year\'s requirement (of a product or service)
without establishing and having to exercise an option for each program
year after the first.

Enter code Y when the definition for multiyear contract applies. Do not
report contracts containing options as multiyear unless the definition
above applies to the contract.

Y Yes Contract is a multiyear contract as defined by FAR 17.103

N No Contract is not a multiyear contract as defined by FAR 17.103

ITEM 6D. TYPE OF IDC

Identifies whether the IDC or Multi-Agency Contract is Indefinite

Indefinite Delivery/Definite Quantity.

A requirements contract provides for filling all actual purchase
requirements of designated Government activities for supplies or
services during a specified contract period, with deliveries or
performance to be scheduled by placing orders with the contractor.

A Requirements IDC or Multi-Agency Contract is a contract for all of the
agency's requirement for the supplies or services specified, and
effective for the period stated, in the IDC or Multi-Agency Contract.
After award, the contract is a mandatory source for the agency for the
supplies or services specified. The quantities of supplies or services
specified in the IDC or Multi-Agency Contract are estimates only and are
not purchased by this contract. Except as this contract may otherwise
provide, if the Government\'s requirements do not result in orders in
the quantities described as \"estimated\" or \"maximum\" in the
Schedule, that fact shall not constitute the basis for an equitable
price adjustment.

An indefinite-quantity contract provides for an indefinite quantity,
within stated limits, of supplies or services during a fixed period. The
Government places orders for individual requirements. Quantity limits
may be stated as number of units or as dollar values.

An Indefinite-Quantity is a contract for the supplies or services
specified, and effective for the period stated, in the IDC or
Multi-Agency Contract. The quantities of supplies and services specified
in the IDC or Multi-Agency Contract are estimates only and are not
purchased by this contract.

A definite-quantity contract provides for delivery of a definite
quantity of specific supplies or services for a fixed period, with
deliveries or performance to be scheduled at designated locations upon
order.

A Definite Quantity IDC or Multi-Agency Contract is a definite-quantity,
indefinite-delivery contract for the supplies or services specified, and
effective for the period stated, in the IDC or Multi-Agency Contract.

There are seven exceptions:

    purchase card only as a payment method.

(2) Classified contracts (see 2.101) when registration in the CCR
    database, or use of CCR data, could compromise the safeguarding of
    classified information or national security.
