12. **USE OF FEDERAL SUPPLY SERVICE SCHEDULE CONTRACTS.**

In accordance with FAR 8.404:

> **\[NOTE: Special ordering procedures have been established for
> Special Item Numbers (SINs) 132-51 IT Professional Services and 132‑52
> EC Services; refer to the terms and conditions for those SINs.\]**
>
> Orders placed pursuant to a Multiple Award Schedule (MAS), using the
> procedures in FAR 8.404, are considered to be issued pursuant to full
> and open competition. Therefore, when placing orders under Federal
> Supply Schedules, ordering offices need not seek further competition,
> synopsize the requirement, make a separate determination of fair and
> reasonable pricing, or consider small business set-asides in
> accordance with subpart 19.5. GSA has already determined the prices of
> items under schedule contracts to be fair and reasonable. By placing
> an order against a schedule using the procedures outlined below, the
> ordering office has concluded that the order represents the best value
> and results in the lowest overall cost alternative (considering price,
> special features, administrative costs, etc.) to meet the Government's
> needs.

a.  Orders placed at or below the micro-purchase threshold. Ordering
    > offices can place orders at or below the micro-purchase threshold
    > with any Federal Supply Schedule Contractor.

b.  Orders exceeding the micro-purchase threshold but not exceeding the
    > maximum order threshold. Orders should be placed with the Schedule
    > Contractor that can provide the supply or service that represents
    > the best value. Before placing an order, ordering offices should
    > consider reasonably available information about the supply or
    > service offered under MAS contracts by using the "GSA Advantage!"
    > on-line shopping service, or by reviewing the catalogs/pricelists
    > of at least three Schedule Contractors and selecting the delivery
    > and other options available under the schedule that meets the
    > agency's needs. In selecting the supply or service representing
    > the best value, the ordering office may consider\--

> \(1\) Special features of the supply or service that are required in
> effective program performance and that are not provided by a
> comparable supply or service;
>
> \(2\) Trade-in considerations;
>
> \(3\) Probable life of the item selected as compared with that of a
> comparable item;
>
> \(4\) Warranty considerations;
>
> \(5\) Maintenance availability;
>
> \(6\) Past performance; and
>
> \(7\) Environmental and energy efficiency considerations.

c.  Orders exceeding the maximum order threshold. Each schedule contract
    > has an established maximum order threshold. This threshold
    > represents the point where it is advantageous for the ordering
    > office to seek a price reduction. In addition to following the
    > procedures in paragraph b, above, and before placing an order that
    > exceeds the maximum order threshold, ordering offices shall\--

> Review additional Schedule Contractors'
>
> \(1\) catalogs/pricelists or use the "GSA Advantage!" on-line shopping
> service;
>
> \(2\) Based upon the initial evaluation, generally seek price
> reductions from the Schedule Contractor(s) appearing to provide the
> best value (considering price and other factors); and
>
> \(3\) After price reductions have been sought, place the order with
> the Schedule Contractor that provides the best value and results in
> the lowest overall cost alternative. If further price reductions are
> not offered, an order may still be placed, if the ordering office
> determines that it is appropriate.
>
> NOTE: For orders exceeding the maximum order threshold, the Contractor
> may:
>
> \(1\) Offer a new lower price for this requirement (the Price
> Reductions clause is not applicable to orders placed over the maximum
> order in FAR 52.216-19 Order Limitations);
>
> \(2\) Offer the lowest price available under the contract; or
>
> \(3\) Decline the order (orders must be returned in accordance with
> FAR 52.216-19).

d.  Blanket purchase agreements (BPAs). The establishment of Federal
    > Supply Schedule BPAs is permitted when following the ordering
    > procedures in FAR 8.404. All schedule contracts contain BPA
    > provisions. Ordering offices may use BPAs to establish accounts
    > with Contractors to fill recurring requirements. BPAs should
    > address the frequency of ordering and invoicing, discounts, and
    > delivery locations and times.

e.  Price reductions. In addition to the circumstances outlined in
    > paragraph c, above, there may be instances when ordering offices
    > will find it advantageous to request a price reduction. For
    > example, when the ordering office finds a schedule supply or
    > service elsewhere at a lower price or when a BPA is being
    > established to fill recurring requirements, requesting a price
    > reduction could be advantageous. The potential volume of orders
    > under these agreements, regardless of the size of the individual
    > order, may offer the ordering office the opportunity to secure
    > greater discounts. Schedule Contractors are not required to pass
    > on to all schedule users a price reduction extended only to an
    > individual agency for a specific order.

f.  Small business. For orders exceeding the micro-purchase threshold,
    > ordering offices should give preference to the items of small
    > business concerns when two or more items at the same delivered
    > price will satisfy the requirement.

g.  Documentation. Orders should be documented, at a minimum, by
    > identifying the Contractor the item was purchased from, the item
    > purchased, and the amount paid. If an agency requirement in excess
    > of the micro-purchase threshold is defined so as to require a
    > particular brand name, product, or feature of a product peculiar
    > to one manufacturer, thereby precluding consideration of a product
    > manufactured by another company, the ordering office shall include
    > an explanation in the file as to why the particular brand name,
    > product, or feature is essential to satisfy the agency's needs.

```
14. **SECURITY REQUIREMENTS.** In the event security requirements are
    necessary, the ordering activities may incorporate, in their
    delivery orders, a security clause in accordance with current laws,
    regulations, and individual agency policy; however, the burden of
    administering the security requirements shall be with the ordering
    agency. If any costs are incurred as a result of the inclusion of
    security requirements, such costs will not exceed ten percent (10%)
    or \$100,000, of the total dollar value of the order, whichever is
    less.

15. **CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION FOR ORDERING OFFICES:** Any ordering
    office, with respect to any one or more delivery orders placed by it
    under this contract, may exercise the same rights of termination as
    might the GSA Contracting Officer under provisions of FAR 52.212-4,
    paragraphs (l) Termination for the Government's convenience, and (m)

17. **PURCHASE OF OPEN MARKET**

> NOTE: Open Market Items are also known as incidental items,
> noncontract items, non-Schedule items, and items not on a Federal
> Supply Schedule contract.
>
> For administrative convenience, an ordering office contracting officer
> may add items not on the Federal Supply Multiple Award Schedule (MAS)
> \-- referred to as open market items \-- to a Federal Supply Schedule
> blanket purchase agreement (BPA) or an individual task or delivery
> order, **only if**-
>
> \(1\) All applicable acquisition regulations pertaining to the
> purchase of the items not on the Federal Supply Schedule have been
> followed (e.g., publicizing (Part 5), competition requirements (Part

    representations include, in addition to those agreed to for the
    entire schedule contract:

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
1.  Time of delivery/installation quotations for individual orders;

2.  Technical representation and/or warranties of products concerning
    performance, total system performance and/or configuration,
    physical, design and/or functional characteristics and capabilities
    of a product/equipment/service/software package submitted in
    response to requirements which result in orders under this schedule
    contract.

3.  Any representations and/or warranties concerning the products made
    in any literature, description, drawings and/or specifications
    furnished by the contractor.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
b)  The above is not intended to encompass items not currently covered
    by the GSA Schedule contract.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
19. **OVERSEAS ACTIVITIES.**

The terms and conditions of this contract shall apply to all orders for
installations, maintenance and repair of equipment in areas listed in
the price list outside the 48 contiguous states and the District of
Columbia, except as indicated below:

Upon request of the contractor, the Government may provide the
contractor with logistics support, as available, in accordance with all
applicable Government regulations. Such Government support will be
provided on a reimbursable basis, and will only be provided to the
contractor's technical personnel whose services are exclusively required
for the fulfillment of the terms and conditions of this contract

20. **BLANKET PURCHASE AGREEMENTS (BPAs)**

Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 13.303-1(a) defines Blanket
Purchase Agreements (BPAs) as "...a simplified method of filling
anticipated repetitive needs for supplies or services by establishing
'charge accounts' with qualified sources of supply." The use of Blanket
Purchase Agreements under the Federal Supply Schedule Program is
authorized in accordance with FAR 13.303-2(c)(3), which reads, in part,
as follows:

> "BPAs may be established with Federal Supply Schedule Contractors, if
> not inconsistent with the terms of the applicable schedule contract."
>
> Federal Supply Schedule contracts contain BPA provisions to enable
> schedule users to maximize their administrative and purchasing
> savings. This feature permits schedule users to set up "accounts" with
> Schedule Contractors to fill recurring requirements. These accounts
> establish a period for the BPA and generally address issues such as
> the frequency of ordering and invoicing, authorized callers,
> discounts, delivery locations and times. Agencies may qualify for the
> best quantity/volume discounts available under the contract, based on
> the potential volume of business that may be generated through such an
> agreement, regardless of the size of the individual orders. In
> addition, agencies may be able to secure a discount higher than that
> available in the contract based on the aggregate volume of business
> possible under a BPA. Finally, Contractors may be open to a
> progressive type of discounting where the discount would increase once
> the sales accumulated under the BPA reach certain prescribed levels.
> Use of a BPA may be particularly useful with the new Maximum Order
> feature. See the Suggested Format, contained in this Schedule
> Pricelist, for customers to consider when using this purchasing tool.
>
> **21. CONTRACTOR TEAM ARRANGEMENTS**

Contractors participating in contractor team arrangements must abide by
all terms and conditions of their respective contracts. This includes
compliance with Clauses 552.238-74, Contractor's Reports of Sales and
552.238-76, Industrial Funding Fee, i.e., each contractor (team member)
must report sales and remit the IFF for all products and services
provided under its individual contract.

22. **INSTALLATION, DEINSTALLATION, REINSTALLATION**

The Davis-Bacon Act (40 U.S.C. 276a-276a-7) provides that contracts in
excess of \$2,000 to which the United States or the District of Columbia
is a party for construction, alteration, or repair (including painting
and decorating) of public buildings or public works with the United
States, shall contain a clause that no laborer or mechanic employed
directly upon the site of the work shall receive less than the
prevailing wage rates as determined by the Secretary of Labor. The
requirements of the Davis-Bacon Act do not apply if the construction
work is incidental to the furnishing of supplies, equipment, or
services. For example, the requirements do not apply to simple
installation or alteration of a public building or public work that is
incidental to furnishing supplies or equipment under a supply contract.
However, if the construction, alteration or repair is segregable and
exceeds \$2,000, then the requirements of the Davis-Bacon Act applies.

The requisitioning activity issuing the task order against this contract
will be responsible for proper administration and enforcement of the
Federal labor standards covered by the Davis-Bacon Act. The proper
Davis-Bacon wage determination will be issued by the ordering activity
at the time a request for quotations is made for applicable construction
classified installation, deinstallation, and reinstallation services
under SIN 132-8.

#### SERVICE CONTRACT ACT---PLACE OF PERFORMANCE UNKNOWN (52.222-49) (MAY 1989) applicable ONLY to services covered by the act

\(a\) This contract is subject to the Service Contract Act, and the
place of performance was unknown when the solicitation was issued. In
addition to places or areas identified in wage determinations, if any,
attached to the solicitation, wage determinations have also been
requested for the following: See Exhibit 4. The Contracting Officer will

> **3. ORDERING PROCEDURES FOR SERVICES (REQUIRING A STATEMENT OF
> WORK)**
>
> FAR 8.402 contemplates that GSA may occasionally find it necessary to
> establish special ordering procedures for individual Federal Supply
> Schedules or for some Special Item Numbers (SINs) within a Schedule.
> GSA has established special ordering procedures for services that
> require a Statement of Work. These special ordering procedures take
> precedence over the procedures in FAR 8.404 (b)(2) through (b)(3).
>
> GSA has determined that the prices for services contained in the
> contractor's price list applicable to this Schedule are fair and
> reasonable. However, the ordering office using this contract is
> responsible for considering the level of effort and mix of labor
> proposed to perform a specific task being ordered and for making a
> determination that the total firm-fixed price or ceiling price is fair
> and reasonable.
>
> \(a\) When ordering services, ordering offices shall---
>
> \(1\) Prepare a Request (Request for Quote or other communication
> tool):
>
> \(i\) A statement of work (a performance-based statement of work is
> preferred) that outlines, at a minimum, the work to be performed,
> location of work, period of performance, deliverable schedule,
> applicable standards, acceptance criteria, and any special
> requirements (i.e., security clearances, travel, special knowledge,
> etc.) should be prepared.
>
> \(ii\) The request should include the statement of work and request
> the contractors to submit either a firm-fixed price or a ceiling price
> to provide the services outlined in the statement of work. A
> firm-fixed price order shall be requested, unless the ordering office
> makes a determination that it is not possible at the time of placing
> the order to estimate accurately the extent or duration of the work or
> to anticipate cost with any reasonable degree of confidence. When such
> a determination is made, a labor hour or time-and-materials proposal
> may be requested. The firm-fixed price shall be based on the rates in
> the schedule contract and shall consider the mix of labor categories
> and level of effort required to perform the services described in the
> statement of work. The firm-fixed price of the order should also
> include any travel costs or other incidental costs related to
> performance of the services ordered, unless the order provides for
> reimbursement of travel costs at the rates provided in the Federal
> Travel or Joint Travel Regulations. A ceiling price must be
> established for labor-hour and time-and-materials orders.
>
> \(iii\) The request may ask the contractors, if necessary or
> appropriate, to submit a project plan for performing the task, and
> information on the contractor's experience and/or past performance
> performing similar tasks.
>
> \(iv\) The request shall notify the contractors what basis will be
> used for selecting the contractor to receive the order. The notice
> shall include the basis for determining whether the contractors are
> technically qualified and provide an explanation regarding the
> intended use of any experience and/or past performance information in
> determining technical qualification of responses. If consideration
> will be limited to schedule contractors who are small business
> concerns as permitted by paragraph (2)(i) below, the request shall
> notify the contractors that will be the case.
>
> \(2\) Transmit the Request to Contractors:
>
> \(i\) Based upon an initial evaluation of catalogs and price lists,
> the ordering office should identify the contractors that appear to
> offer the best value (considering the scope of services offered,
> pricing and other factors such as contractors' locations, as
> appropriate). When buying IT professional services under
> SIN 132---51 ONLY, the ordering office, at its discretion, may limit
> consideration to those schedule contractors that are small business
> concerns. This limitation is not applicable when buying supplies
> and/or services under other SINs as well as SIN 132-51. The limitation
> may only be used when at least three (3) small businesses that appear
> to offer services that will meet the agency's needs are available, if
> the order is estimated to exceed the micro-purchase threshold.
>
> \(ii\) The request should be provided to three (3) contractors if the
> proposed order is estimated to exceed the micro-purchase threshold,
> but not exceed the maximum order threshold. For proposed orders
> exceeding the maximum order threshold, the request should be provided
> to additional contractors that offer services that will meet the
> agency's needs. Ordering offices should strive to minimize the
> contractors' costs associated with responding to requests for quotes
> for specific orders. Requests should be tailored to the minimum level
> necessary for adequate evaluation and selection for order placement.
> Oral presentations should be considered, when possible.
>
> \(3\) Evaluate Responses and Select the Contractor to Receive the
> Order:
>
> After responses have been evaluated against the factors identified in
> the request, the order should be placed with the schedule contractor
> that represents the best value. (See FAR 8.404)
>
> \(b\) The establishment of Federal Supply Schedule Blanket Purchase
> Agreements (BPAs) for recurring services is permitted when the
> procedures outlined herein are followed. All BPAs for services must
> define the services that may be ordered under the BPA, along with
> delivery or performance time frames, billing procedures, etc. The
> potential volume of orders under BPAs, regardless of the size of
> individual orders, may offer the ordering office the opportunity to
> secure volume discounts. When establishing BPAs, ordering offices
> shall---
>
> \(1\) Inform contractors in the request (based on the agency's
> requirement) if a single BPA or multiple BPAs will be established, and
> indicate the basis that will be used for selecting the contractors to
> be awarded the BPAs.
>
> \(i\) SINGLE BPA: Generally, a single BPA should be established when
> the ordering office can define the tasks to be ordered under the BPA
> and establish a firm-fixed price or ceiling price for individual tasks
> or services to be ordered. When this occurs, authorized users may
> place the order directly under the established BPA when the need for
> service arises. The schedule contractor that represents the best value
> should be awarded the BPA. (See FAR 8.404)
>
> \(ii\) MULTIPLE BPAs: When the ordering office determines multiple
> BPAs are needed to meet its requirements, the ordering office should
> determine which contractors can meet any technical qualifications
> before establishing the BPAs. When multiple BPAs are established, the
> authorized users must follow the procedures in (a)(2)(ii) above and
> then place the order with the Schedule contractor that represents the
> best value.
>
> \(2\) Review BPAs Periodically: Such reviews shall be conducted at
> least annually. The purpose of the review is to determine whether the
> BPA still represents the best value. (See FAR 8.404)
>
> \(c\) The ordering office should give preference to small business
> concerns when two or more contractors can provide the services at the
> same firm-fixed price or ceiling price.
>
> \(d\) When the ordering office's requirement involves both products as
> well as executive, administrative and/or professional, services, the
> ordering office should total the prices for the products and the
> firm-fixed price for the services and select the contractor that
> represents the best value. (See FAR 8.404)
>
> The ordering office, at a minimum, should document orders by
> identifying the contractor from which the services were purchased, the
> services purchased, and the amount paid. If other than a firm-fixed
> price order is placed, such documentation should include the basis for
> the determination to use a labor-hour or time-and-materials order. For
> agency requirements in excess of the micro-purchase threshold, the
> order file should document the evaluation of Schedule contractors'
> quotes that formed the basis for the selection of the contractor that
> received the order and the rationale for any trade-offs made in making
> the selection.
>
> Ordering procedures for other services available on schedule at fixed
> prices for specifically defined services or tasks should use the
> procedures in FAR 8.404. These procedures are listed in the pricelist,
> under "Information for Ordering Offices," paragraph #12.
