652.216-71 PRICE ADJUSTMENT (AUG 1999)

\(a\) The contract price may be increased or decreased in actual costs
of direct service labor which result directly from laws enacted and
effective during the term of this contract by the Ukrainian Government.
Direct service labor costs include only the costs of wages and direct
benefits (such as social security, health insurance, unemployment
compensation insurance) paid to or incurred for the direct benefit of
personnel performing services under one of the contract line items
listed in Section 1, The Schedule of this contract. Price adjustments
will include only changes in direct service labor costs incurred in
order to comply with the requirements of the law. No adjustment will be
made under this clause with respect to labor costs of personnel not
performing direct service labor under the categories of Section 1, The
Schedule, nor for overhead, profit, general and administrative (G&A)
costs, taxes or any other costs whatsoever

\(b\) For the contracting officer to consider any request for
adjustment, the contractor shall demonstrate in writing:

\(1\) That the change in the law occurred during the term of this
contract and subsequent to the award date of this contract; and,

\(2\) That the change in the law could not have been reasonably
anticipated prior to contract award; and,

\(3\) How the change in the law directly affects the contractor\'s costs
under this contract.

\(c\) The contractor shall present data that clearly supports any
request for adjustment. This data shall be submitted no later than 30
calendar days after the changes in the law have been made public. This
data shall include, but not be limited to, the following:

\(1\) The calculation of the amount of adjustment requested; and,

\(2\) Documentation which identifies and provides the appropriate
portions of the text of the particular law from which the request is
derived.

\(d\) In order to establish the change between the requested adjusted
rate and the original rate, the contractor shall support the appropriate
data and composition of the original rate and the requested adjusted
rate. This shall include details regarding specific hourly rates paid to
individual employees. For contracts paid in U.S. dollars, the
contractor\'s request for price adjustment shall present data
reflecting:

\(1\) The exchange rate in effect on the date of the contractor\'s
proposal that was accepted for the basic contract; and

\(2\) The current exchange rate and its effect on payment of workers in
local currency.

The allowable adjustment shall be limited to the extent to which
increases in direct service labor costs due to host country law changes
are not offset by exchange rate gains.

\(e\) Only direct cost changes mandated by enacted laws shall be
considered for adjustment under this contract. Changes for purposes of
maintaining parity of pay between employees at the minimum mandated
levels and employees already paid at levels above the newly mandated
minimums shall not be considered. Therefore, if the contractor elects to
increase payments to employees who are already being paid at or above
the mandated amounts, such increased costs shall be borne solely by the
contractor and shall not be justification for an increase in the hourly
and monthly rates under this contract.

\(f\) Any request for adjustment shall be presented by signature of an
officer or general partner of the contractor having overall
responsibility for the conduct of the contractor\'s affairs.

\(g\) No adjustment shall be made to the contract price that relates to
any indirect, overhead, or fixed costs, profit or fee. Only the changes
in direct service labor wages (and any benefits based directly on wages)
shall be considered by the U.S. Government as basis for contract price
changes.

\(h\) No request by the contractor for an adjustment under this clause
shall be allowed if asserted after final payment has been made under
this contract.

\(i\) This clause shall only apply to laws enacted by the Ukrainian
Government meeting the criterion set forth above in paragraph (b). No
adjustments shall be made due to currency fluctuations in exchange
rates.

[4.Orders.]{.underline}

All requests for shipments or performance of individual jobs under this
contract shall be issued by via an order placed by the Contracting
Officer. This task order will contain the following information:

\(a\) Name of contractor

\(b\) Contract number

\(c\) Date of purchase

\(d\) Purchase number

\(e\) Name of person placing order

\(f\) Itemized list of shipment and services furnished

\(g\) Quantity, unit price, and total price of each item or service,
less applicable discounts

Orders may be placed orally, telephonically, by facsimile, or in writing
by the individuals designated as ordering officials.

Gary Anderson, Supervisory General Services Officer

Patrck Ellsworth, Assistant General Services Officer

Belgin Vanderploeg, Assistant General Services Officer

If more than one contractor has received an award for these services,
the following procedures shall govern regarding issuance of individual
orders. No work shall be performed without an order being issued to the
contractor by a designated official identified above.

\(1\) As the need for services arises, the Government will develop a
price estimate. If the estimate does not exceed US\$2500, the Government
will follow the procedures in paragraph (2) below. If the estimate
exceeds US\$2500, the Government will follow the procedures in paragraph
(3) below.

\(2\) Orders not exceeding US\$2500 - The Government will select a
contractor for issuance of the order. This decision will be based on the
Government\'s best interests, which may include factors such as
estimated price and past performance record..

\(3\) Orders exceeding US\$2500 - Unless one of the exceptions in
paragraph (4) below applies, the Government will follow one of the
following two scenarios:

\(a\) The Government will request each contractor to perform, AT NO COST
TO THE GOVERNMENT, a pre-shipment survey after which the contractor will
present an estimate to the Government. Whether or not the contractor is
selected for an individual order, the Government shall not be liable for
any claim from the Contractor for the costs of performing the
pre-shipment survey. Selection will be based on a combination of
estimated price and past performance information; or

\(b\) If the Contracting Officer can establish which Contractor's prices
will result in the lowest price for the individual order without
requesting a pre-shipment survey, the Government will make its award
selection based upon the prices set forth in the contract and past
performance information gained as a result of contractor performance
under this contract.

\(4\) Regardless of whether the procedures in paragraph (2) or (3) above
were followed, selection of contractors shall not be protest able to GAO
under Subpart 33.1 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation, except on the
grounds that the order increases the scope, period, or maximum value of
the contract. However, the Department of State does have an Acquisition
Ombudsman who will review complaints by contractors to ensure that all
contractors are afforded a fair opportunity to be considered for these
task orders, pursuant to the procedures for award of task orders
established herein.

\(5\) Exceptions to the procedures in paragraph (4) above:

\(a\) The agency need for the required services is of such urgency that
providing such competitive opportunity would result in unacceptable
delays;

\(b\) The order should be issued on a sole-source basis in the interest
of economy and efficiency as a logical follow-on to an order already
issued under the contract, provided that all awardees were given a fair
opportunity to be considered for the original order\"

a.  Professional Books, Papers and Equipment. Packing shall be in the
    same manner as other articles, but such items shall be packed,
    weighed, marked, numbered and listed separately on the Inventory
    List. The client will identify such items and set them apart from
    the rest of the Household Effects.

b.  Articles of extraordinary value. Packing shall be performed only in
    the presence of the client or his/her agent. For official packing of
    U.S. Government articles of extraordinary value the COR shall
    provide specific instructions to the Contractor.

    to Household Effects among the client\'s effects, and if the ratio
    appears excessive, the contractor shall notify the COR.

d.  Electronic Items. Electronic equipment with an estimated value over
    \$1,500.00 shall be shipped only as Household Effects, and not as
    UAB, since UAB is more likely to sustain damage en route. Should the
    client insist that such items be included in UAB, the contractor
    shall advise the client of the risks, advise the COR of the
    client\'s insistence, and note on the COR copy of the Inventory List
    that such advice was given.

e.  Furniture. Large items of furniture which do not fit into standard

    cardboard cut and fitted to the item. For fragile or heavy items, a
    wooden crate shall be constructed around the item. Examples of items
    requiring such special treatment include pianos, curio cabinets,
    ornamental screens, and other furnishings subject to damage.

f.  Shipping of Vehicles. For purposes of this contract, motorcycles are
    to be considered HHE.

g.  If specifically requested by the COR, the contractor shall also
    provide boxing services for vehicles. Boxing services shall include:

> \(1\) complete water cleaning of vehicle, especially under carriage,
>
> \(2\) removal of wheels,
>
> \(3\) bolting of vehicle to box container platform, and
>
> \(4\) enclosing vehicle in a wood box that will withstand
> transshipment strains.
>
>  

3.  PROTECTION AGAINST INSECTS

Many different types of insects can damage Household Effects in transit
or storage. The contractor shall take measures to prevent such damage,
with the following constituting the minimum acceptable measures:

    before packaging and packing. If infestation is present, the
    contractor shall advise both the client and the COR, and note this
    on the Inventory List.

> \(b\) Wrap and securely package and seal items made of wool to prevent
> damage by insects.

> weatherproof tarpaulin large enough to fully cover the cargo. .

3.  LABELING OF BOXES AND CARTONS

    a.  Mark every box clearly with indelible marker pen or paint to
        assist in location and identification of the client\'s effects.
        When a shipment is delivered to an incorrect address due to
        incorrect marking by the contractor, the shipment shall be
        forwarded with the least possible delay to the correct location
        by a mode of transportation selected by the COR. The contractor
        shall be held liable for all additional costs incurred by the
        Government due to incorrect marking by the contractor, including
        charges for preparation, drayage, and transportation.

    b.  Sequentially number and identify the contents of all cartons
        such as Kitchenware, Books, Toys, etc.) by means of indelible
        markings on the exterior of each box. Such markings may be
        handwritten, as long as they are legible.

    c.  Clearly mark all cartons on the sides and top to show which end
        should be up.

> \(d\) Clearly mark all boxes containing mirrors or picture frames to
> show which side to open.

    a.  After articles have been wrapped and packed in cartons, the
        Contractor shall load them on to the contractor\'s vehicle for
        transport to the work site specified by the COR. Under the
        supervision of the COR, the Contractor shall pack all the
        articles into wooden lift vans or modular containers.

        split seams are unacceptable. Lift vans with evidence of over
        packing are also unacceptable. In either case, the contractor
        shall repack the articles in a suitable manner without
        additional cost to the Government.

    ```{=html}
    <!-- -->
    ```

        packers finish at a residence, the Contractor shall place the
        cartons in a secure storage area at the work site if the COR so
        directs. Pack the cartons into lift vans on the next workday.

\(e\) Securely wrap the packed lift vans with metal bands.
