**6.1 FIXED PRICE INDEFINITE QUANTITY**

**6.1.1 General Information**

This Annex defines the non-routine, firm-fixed price, Indefinite
Delivery / Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) portion of this Contract. The
services to be provided include the management, planning,
accomplishment, and Quality Control (QC) of a broad variety of Delivery
Orders (DO). (See the "BOSS RFP List 1997" file within the **\*\*Work
Order History** document in the Technical Reference Library (TRL). These
services shall be furnished on an as needed basis, in response to DO\'s,
which are issued and authorized by the CO per Section F.

**6.1.2 Services Acquired Under IQ Provisions**

The Government may acquire services under this Annex when:

a\. Additional quantities of any service described in Annexes 7 and 14
are needed after the Contractor has furnished the maximum amount
required in the referenced annexes;

b\. Purchasing services specifically described in this Annex;

c\. Procuring unspecified services that fall within the broad scope of
the entire Center Operations Support Services (COSS) contract.

If the Government requires services in category \"a.\" above, furnish
them in accordance with (i) the performance requirements called out in
Annexes 7 and 14 that are applicable to the ordered service, and (ii)
any additional or changed requirements negotiated into the DO issued by
the Government to obtain the service. If the Government requires
services in categories \"b.\" or \"c.\" above, the requirements shall be
included in the DO issued by the Government.

**6.1.3 DO Ordering and Proposals**

When DO work is required, the CO will issue an DO for pre-priced work,
or will issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) for non-pre-priced work. An
RFP will contain, at a minimum, a scope of work and schedule for the
required services. For non-pre-priced work, an IQ DO will be issued upon
the acceptance of the Contractor\'s proposal in response to the RFP, or
after the conclusion of negotiations, if negotiations were necessary.

a\. Upon receipt of each RFP from the CO, the Contractor shall prepare
and submit a DO proposal to the Government. The Contractor\'s proposal
shall consist of a detailed cost-estimate, project schedule, and other
information details or plans required by the DO description of the work,
and the necessary documentation to indicate that adequate engineering
and planning to accomplish the work have been done. This documentation
includes a sketch or written document describing the work that the
estimate was based upon. Preparation of proposals by the Contractor
shall not constitute an obligation by the Government to issue a DO for
performance, nor is the RFP to be construed as the Contractor\'s
authority to commence work.

Subcontractor proposals shall be part of the proposal package submitted
to the Government. The Contractor shall provide a minimum of 3
subcontractor bids, or the documents required to demonstrate price
reasonableness in accordance with its approved purchasing system.

If required by the Government, prior to proposal submission, the
Contractor shall respond to the needs of the Government by visiting the
proposed work site in the company of the IDIQ Technical Management
Representative (**\*TMR**) to further define the scope of work. Upon
establishment of the scope of the work, the Contractor shall prepare a
proposal to accomplish the task.

b\. Transmit proposals electronically, by means of computer disk or
local area network, when so directed by the Government. The software
used to prepare such proposal submissions shall be Microsoft Windows
compatible. Submit a minimum of three hard copies of all proposals.

c\. Detailed proposals shall be submitted within the period specified by
the \"classifications\" stated on each RFP. Due dates for proposals are
based on the urgency of the Government\'s need for the required services
and will be stated as one of the following \"classifications:"

Class I: A complete proposal is required within 5 calendar days of
receipt of an RFP.

Class II: A complete proposal is required within 14 calendar days of
receipt of an RFP.

Class III: A complete proposal is required within 20 calendar days of
receipt of an RFP.

d\. If the Contractor cannot meet the requested schedule, notify the
Government within 2 days of RFP receipt and explain the reason(s) why.
Propose an alternate schedule, subject to approval by the Government.

6.1.4.2 Subcontracted Work Coefficient

This coefficient factor shall include all Contractor costs associated
with the administration of the subcontract including, but not limited
to:

1.  Administrative and clerical support to solicit a subcontractor
    proposal and to prepare a proposal for the Government;

2.  Subcontractor procurement; training the subcontractor for work
    on-site, management and supervision of the subcontractor;

3.  Inspection, quality control, and any work associated with acquiring
    and ensuring poorly performed and warranty work is correctly
    completed.

6.1.4.3 Materials and Equipment Rental (MER) Coefficient

This coefficient factor shall include all costs related to securing
materials and equipment leases to complete tasks directed on DO's,
including rollover maintenance DO's. No other coefficient shall be
applied to these items. The MER Coefficient shall include all costs
related to administrative support; procurement support including
proposal preparation, solicitation of proposals, evaluation of
proposals, placement of orders, tracking and expediting of purchase
orders; receiving, handling, and storage of materials; and lease
acquisition. Routine bin materials shall not be included in this
coefficient.

6.1.4.4 Cost-Estimates for Unit Price Book (UPB) Work

a\. The basis for the Contractor\'s cost-estimate shall be the prices
published by the R.S. Means Company, Inc., herein after referred to as
Means. Means Publications are available from the following source: R.S.
Means Company, Inc., 100 Construction Plaza, P.O. Box 800, Kingston, MA
02364-0800, Telephone: 1-800-448-8182. Estimates and proposals shall be
based on the edition of the R.S. Means Cost Data Publications current at
the time of contract award and the respective quarterly updates. The
Means Facilities Construction Cost Data, and the Means Facilities
Maintenance and Repair Cost Data Publications shall be used for
construction and maintenance and repair respectively. The Means Cost
Data shall be used to determine the required trades, labor hours,
materials (type, quantity, and base price), and the equipment type usage
and price necessary to submit a detailed cost proposal to the
Government. The Government will only be obligated to pay the lowest
price derived from the various pricing methodologies described in this
Annex.

b\. The Means \***bare costs** for material, labor, and equipment, shall
be adjusted by each CSI division per the City Cost Index (as published
in the Reference Section of Means) for Houston, Texas, and the
appropriate Contractor coefficient factor (see Section B). The resulting
value shall be the fixed price value of the DO issued to the Contractor.
Pricing methods and procedures in the Reference Section of the Means
book shall be applied to applicable unit prices in the Unit Price
Section.

c\. The \"remove and relocate\" cost of an existing item shall be 115
percent of the Means bare labor cost of installation for a new item of
the same type. The demolition cost of an existing item shall be 40
percent of the Means bare labor cost of installation for a new item of
the same type.

d\. The Contractor shall apply the MER coefficient to materials
regardless of whether it is installed during core or non-core hours.

6.1.4.5 Cost-Estimates for Non-Pre-priced Labor Rate Work

a\. Non-pre-priced work shall be priced per the following procedures:

[Labor]{.underline}: Shall be priced per labor rates.

Prepare the estimate with a detailed line-item-by-line-item breakdown of
each type craft hour required to accomplish the necessary work. The
Contractor\'s fixed **\*bare labor rates** shall be used first to
calculate the Contractor\'s total labor cost. If one does not exist in
Section B, the Contractor shall propose a reasonable **\*bare labor
rate**. The Non Pre-Priced Coefficient factor in Section B shall then be
applied to the total bare labor costs.

b\. Material & Equipment Rental:

In each proposal, submit line-item detail of the types and quantities of
materials or equipment required to complete the proposed task. The
number of units and each unit's cost shall be provided for each piece of
equipment or material. If the proposed cost for any individual item of
material or equipment exceeds \$5,000, provide competitive vendor quotes
to support the proposed cost of that line item, unless otherwise
directed by the Government. For all proposed lease equipment, provide
the name and number of leasing company with the proposals. Furthermore,
use competition to the maximum extent practicable in the acquisition of
material or equipment regardless of its estimated value. The MER
Coefficient factor in Section B shall then be applied to the total cost
of the materials and equipment. For materials and equipment in a
subcontractor's bid, the MER shall be applied to the subcontractor's
quoted price.

6.1.4.6 Subcontracted Services

For proposals based in part or solely upon subcontractor quote(s), show
the costs divided into two categories, Materials and Other. MER
coefficient shall be applied to the materials in the proposal and the
Subcontractor coefficient shall be applied to the non-materials in the
proposal. For subcontractor quote(s) that are not divided into the two
required categories, the COSS Contractor shall apply the MER coefficient
to the entire subcontractor quote(s).

6.1.4.7 Bin Materials

Bin materials and supplies shall not be separately priced in the
submitted proposals. Bin materials and supplies are the minor materials
and supplies that are incidental to the job. Examples of bin materials
and supplies include, but are not limited to; solder, Lead (Pb), flux,
electrical connectors, electrical tape, fuses, nails, screws, bolts,
nuts, washers, spacers, masking tape, sand paper, solvent, cleaners,
lubricants, grease, oil, rags, mops, glue, epoxy, spackling compound,
joint tape, plumbers tape and compound, clips, welding rods, heat sinks,
touch up paint, plumbing and refrigeration fittings.

**6.1.5 Pricing Information**

When preparing a proposal, the following pricing hierarchy shall be
used:

\(1\) Price using [Pre-priced Tasks]{.underline} -- First, the
Contractor shall include the appropriate services or products that were
pre-priced under this contract. When ordering only pre-priced services
or products, the CO will issue a completed DO specifying the number of
units, expected delivery date (as stated in each applicable line item),
and the scope of work. Discussions (negotiations) will not be required.
Pre-priced work is not subject to the application of the Contractor
coefficient factors.

\(2\) Price using [Unit Price Book (UPB)]{.underline} -- Second, the
Contractor shall include the appropriate services or products that can
be priced per the appropriate R.S. Means Cost Data Publication. The cost
estimate for this work shall be as described in CLIN 6.1.4.4. The
proposal prices shall be based on the edition in effect when the
Delivery Order is issued to the Contractor. UPB work is subject to
application of the appropriate Means and MER Coefficient Factors.

\(3\) Price using [Non-Pre-priced Tasks and Labor Rates]{.underline} -
Third, the Contractor shall include the appropriate services or products
that are not pre-priced or covered by any UBP. The cost estimate for
this work shall be as described in CLIN 6.1.4.5.

\(4\) Price using Subcontract Prices -- Items not priced according to
the first three categories shall be priced in accordance with CLIN
6.1.4.6. Notwithstanding the Contractor's right to subcontract delivery
order work, the contractor agrees to use pre-established prices
contained in Section B, B.8 to the extent any delivery order proposal
can be developed, in total or in part, using one or more pre-established
Section B prices. Similarly, all delivery order proposal estimates
developed using labor hours shall be based upon the pre-established bare
labor rates contained in Section B, B.10 regardless of whether the labor
is to be provided by the prime or a subcontractor. The Contractor shall
prepare all proposal estimates using the hierarchy above whether or not
it plans to subcontract the work. In addition, prior to awarding a
delivery order, the Government may occasionally request the Contractor
to develop a proposal based upon competitive subcontractor quotes or
bids that had previously been estimated in accordance with the hierarchy
above."

For any particular DO RFP, application of all pricing methods may be
necessary to complete the required pricing. Clearly identify by
hierarchy within each proposal, and clearly indicate the application of
City of Houston cost index and, if applicable, the various names and
type of coefficient factors applied. Table 6-1, Coefficient Use
clarifies when each coefficient shall be applied.

The Government may negotiate the Contractor's estimates. In the event
the parties are unable to agree on the price of a proposal, or on any
other matter concerning the proposal, the CO will unilaterally determine
the price or the matter at issue. Any such determinations will be
subject to the \"Dispute\" clause of this contract.

The Government may furnish any materials associated with work in an RFP.
When furnished, the Contractor shall not include any cost for such
materials in its proposal. The Contractor shall also not apply a
coefficient factor to any Government-furnished materials.

**6.1.6 Inspection and Acceptance of DO\'s**

Unless otherwise specified, the Government may accept, as promptly as
practicable after completion and inspection, all work required by a DO
or that portion of the work the CO determines can be accepted
separately.

6.1.6.1 Daily Inspections

a\. Notify the IDIQ **\*TMR** at least 2 business days prior to any test
or concrete placement. Inspection shall be made after notification that
all items have been installed for the test or concrete placement. Should
the inspection reveal that corrective measures are required or that the
work is not complete, an additional 1 day shall be allowed for the
Government to complete its inspection after all work has been corrected.

b\. Notify the IDIQ **\*TMR** at least 1 business day in advance of
backfilling or encasing so that final location and elevations can be
recorded by Government survey. Failure to provide such notification may
require reopening of a trench to obtain survey data and further
backfilling, all at the Contractor\'s expense.

6.1.6.2 Inspection Notification

Notify the CO in writing upon completion of each individual DO. Provide
1 day advance notice of the date the work will be fully completed and
ready for final inspection. If the Government requires a means of access
to perform a complete inspection before work is covered up, the
Contractor shall provide such access. (e.g. Scaffold, manlift, ladder,
etc.). The Government has the responsibility to respond within a
reasonable time to inspect and accept the work.

6.1.6.3 Acceptance

The IDIQ **\*TMR** will perform acceptance. The CO may designate a
different Government Agent as the authorized representative. The
Contractor shall be notified by a written notice or by a copy of the
delegation of authority if a different representative is designated. The
acceptance of IDIQ work will be based on whether the completed work
satisfies the design SOW, final design package, and performs to meet the
customer\'s requirements. Maintenance activation, when applicable to a
DO, shall be completed before the Government will make final acceptance.

7.  **Definitions**

**Compliance** -- To act in accordance with applicable laws or industry
or Government guidance.

**Clean up** - Maintaining any work area during and upon completion of
work. It is inclusive of removal of unwanted debris and things such as
the removal of dirt from the roads, sidewalks and parking lots at
**\*JSC**. It also includes the replacement of any damaged property or
plant life disturbed during any type of work.

**Signs** - Written and displayed communications required by law,
regulation, or otherwise mandated by NASA to inform personnel at
**\*JSC** of work related or safety information.

**Fluctuation** **of IDIQ** - The variation in quantity of IDIQ work
permitted under this contract in accordance with the clause in Section
B, B.3.

**6.2 SERVICE ORDERS**

6.  **General Information**

6.2.1.1 Annex Description

This portion of this Annex identifies the use of Service Orders (SO)
within this contract. A SO is a unit of Directed Services work that may
be ordered by the Government to perform a discretionary task. SO's are
essentially "pre-priced Delivery Orders" awaiting a Government scope of
work description and task completion schedule. SO's will be used by the
Government to quickly perform \"small scope\" jobs, while eliminating
the administrative burden and length of time associated with issuing a
Delivery Order per Annex 6 or 13.

6.2.1.2 Service Order Issuance

The Government will exclusively decide what work may be ordered by SO's.
Work ordered may include, but not be limited to, maintenance, rigging,
transportation, engineering services, janitorial, construction, repair,
or any work within the general scope of the contract. The scope of work,
dollar value level, and schedule priority will be set by the Government
and provided to the Contractor when the SO is issued. If a SO is used
for work that has a pre-priced value, that value will be used to
determine the appropriate SO level. If a SO is used for work not covered
by a pre-priced value, the **\*bare cost** of the ordered work will be
used to determine the appropriate SO level.

SO work shall not be charged to workload under other CLIN's or Delivery
Orders by the Contractor. If the Contracting Officer (CO) determines
that work provided by a SO should have been delivered under other terms
of the contract, the SO shall be credited back to the SO workload.

At the Government's sole discretion, SO's can be used to pay for all or
any portion of Government requested work. (Example: A SO might be used
to pay for a minor change order to a Delivery Order.) SO's can be also
used to pay for small scope jobs in a number of annexes to support one
large requirement. (Example: To support an on-site activity, individual
SO's may be issued to run additional power, prepare the grounds
(normally ordered under Annex 7), and pay for the custodial clean-up
(normally ordered under Annex 14)).

6.2.1.3 Service Order Receipt

For the purposes of meeting the task completion schedule, a SO shall be
considered officially in work when the Contractor receives a written or
electronic copy of the SO document from the Government.

6.2.1.4 Rollover Service Orders

Prior to beginning work, should the Contractor receive a SO where the
**\*bare cost**s of the work exceeds the designated level, notify the SO
Requester and furnish a cost estimate. For emergency SO's, the cost
estimate shall be provided verbally within 1 hour of the Contractor's
knowledge, and with enough detail for the Government to understand the
cost. For urgent and routine SO's, the cost estimate shall be furnished
per CLIN 6.1 within 3 **\*workdays**. At this point, the Government may
\"roll over\" the SO to a higher level (e.g., Level II to Level III),
issue a delivery order if the **\*bare costs** exceed the highest SO
level, reduce the work scope, or some other administrative action. If
either of the first two cases are chosen, the SO originally issued will
be credited back to the SO workload.

6.2.1.5 Differing Site Conditions

If work has begun on a SO, the Contractor shall be responsible for its
completion unless differing site conditions are encountered to cause the
work price to exceed the issued SO dollar level. When this occurs, the
Contractor shall notify the SO Requester and furnish a cost estimate.
For emergency SO's, the cost estimate shall be provided verbally within
1 hour of the Contractor's knowledge, and with enough detail for the
Government to understand the cost. For urgent and routine SO's, the cost
estimate shall be furnished per CLIN 6.1 within 1 **\*workday**. At this
point, the Government may \"roll over\" the SO to a higher level (e.g.,
Level II to Level III), issue a Delivery Order if the **\*bare costs**
exceed the highest SO level, reduce the work scope, or some other
contract action. If either of the first two cases are chosen, the SO
originally issued will be credited back to the SO workload. NOTE: The
Government will generally respond within 24 hours of notification of
differing site conditions. Government contact information will be
provided for non-core anomalies.

6.2.1.6 Schedule Delays

If for any reason the task completion schedule cannot be met, the SO
Requester shall be notified by Email within 2 hours of the Contractor's
knowledge. The notification shall include a clear reason for the delay,
impacts of the delay to both customer and Contractor, and a proposed
completion date and time. The SO priority category shall remain in
effect with the revised completion deadline. Work performed by SO's
shall not affect any other contract work schedules.

**6.3 CONSTRUCTION**

**6.3.1 General Information**

1.  Annex Description

This portion of this Annex identifies the Construction Support Services
within this contract. The Contractor shall, upon receipt of a DO,
furnish Construction Support Services (may include special projects
\<\$200,000 such as CoF, MCRRor other projects designated by the
Government). The work required extends beyond a conventional, single
construction effort, in that it involves the planning, scheduling,
coordinating, accomplishing, and procuring of material for a fluctuating
load of unrelated construction tasks.

2.  Reserved

3.  Deliveries or Performance

Delivery Schedule: The time for completion of the work required by each
DO may be stated therein or shall be completed in accordance with the
following schedule:

[Amount of DO]{.underline} [Schedule]{.underline}

Under \$5,000 20 Calendar Days

\$5,001 - \$25,000 30 Calendar Days

Over \$25,001 Negotiated on an individual basis

NOTE: On a case-by-case bases, the Government may negotiate the
schedules above if typical material delivery times do not support DO
completion.

For any DO for construction work exceeding \$25,000, the Contractor
shall obtain performance bonds for the appropriate payments selected by
the CO as prescribed in FAR 28.102-2. For this purpose, and for purpose
of the "Additional Bond Security" clause FAR 52.228-2, the terms
"original contract price" and "contract price" in the referenced FAR
paragraphs shall be deemed to refer to the price of the DO. The
Contractor may include in the pricing proposals in response to DOs for
construction work exceeding \$25,000, the price of performance and
payment bonds as a separate expense. Such expense shall be additive to
the total price of the work and shall not be subject to the application
of any coefficient factor.

4.  Warranties

Warranty enforcement shall remain with the Contractor and shall be
documented within the electronic database. Comply with CLIN 2.5.

5.  Records, Reports and Submittals

The Contractor shall maintain, and update records, databases, schedules,
and documentation as defined in CLIN 1.2 Work Management and Control as
listed in the TRL **\*\*Index of IQ Construction Support Service Data
Requirements.** In addition, the Contractor shall maintain all special
project records throughout the life of this contract and as otherwise
may be required by law or regulatory authority. The records will be
available for the \*TMR or auditors to review and will be handed over to
the Government upon termination of the contract. The Contractor shall
provide all reports and submittals as identified in the project
specifications, listed in the DO, or by negotiated agreement on a
project-by-project basis.

6.  Operator and Linemen Support of Construction Activities

All operator support required to accomplish the construction ordered
through this annex shall be covered in CLIN 4.1.4. CLIN 4.1.4 also
covers lineman support for construction projects up to \$300K. For
construction projects above \$300K, lineman support shall be separately
priced in each proposal.

7.  Contractor Construction Liability

All construction rework caused by construction errors shall be corrected
at no expense to the Government. For projects both designed and
constructed by the COSS Contractor, all construction rework caused by
design errors shall also be corrected at no expense to the Government.

8.  Restrictions, Limitations, and Special Conditions

All personnel performing construction work within any **\*JSC** facility
shall sign in and out on the Facility Managers building work log. Sign
in/out is required for occupancy/evacuation purposes and shall be done
for each separate activity even if performed on the same workday.

9.  Differing Site Conditions

The Contractor shall be responsible for completion of the special
project except if 6.3.17 applies. If differing site conditions are
encountered that impact the price or schedule, the Contractor shall
notify the Government regarding the change. Proper change order
processes shall be used in order to document, approve, and incorporate
the change order and/or baseline change.

10. Site-Specific Safety Plan

The Contractor shall provide the Government a site-specific safety
plan/job hazard analysis for all special projects prior to issuance of
the NTP (includes plans for subcontractors). The COSS Contractor shall
inform the Government whether the subcontractors intend to provide their
own plan or use the plan of the COSS Contractor. If the subcontractor
intends to use the plan of the COSS Contractor, the subcontractor shall
provide a letter signed by the head of that firm stating their
intention. If the subcontractor intends to provide their own, a copy
shall be provided to the Government through the COSS Contractor.

11. Pre-Construction Conference

The Government will conduct a pre-construction conference prior to any
special project. The Contractor shall ensure that the required documents
are delivered either prior to or on the day of the conference. The
Contractor shall ensure that each document references the contract
number and project title. The following is a list of those documents
most commonly required:

The Government will issue a DO to allow the COSS Contractor time to
prepare paperwork, etc. The official NTP is contingent upon the
Government's or project manager's receipt and approval of documents
(examples provided in 6.3.1.11). No construction work called out in the
DO shall begin until the official NTP is issued by the CO. A
modification to the DO will transmit the official NTP and Completion
Date.
