OPTION TO EXTEND TERM OF CONTRACT

The Government has the option to extend the term of this contract for a period of 12 months by written notice to 

the contractor not later than 30 days before the contract expires. If the Government exercises this option, the 

extended contract shall be considered to include this clause, except, the total duration of the contract may not 

exceed 5 years (September 30, 2025) as a result of, and including, any extension(s) added under this clause. 

Further extension may be negotiated under the “Extension of Term of Contract” clause. See also “Economic 

Price Adjustment” for authorized pricing adjustment(s).
UCOR Business Cards Page 3 of 13

2587-S (09/21)

ECONOMIC PRICE ADJUSTMENT

The pricing under this contract shall be adjusted in accordance with this clause, provided that in no event will any 

pricing adjustment be made that would exceed the maximum permissible under any law in effect at the time of the 

adjustment.

There will be no adjustment for orders placed during the first period specified below. Pricing will thereafter be 

eligible for adjustment during the second and any succeeding performance period(s). For each performance 

period after the first, a percentage figure will be calculated as described below and that figure will be the 

economic price adjustment for that entire next period.

Pricing adjustments under this clause are not applicable to reimbursable postage or transportation costs, or to 

paper, if paper prices are subject to adjustment by separate clause elsewhere in this contract.

For the purpose of this clause, performance under this contract will be divided into successive periods. The first 

period will extend from October 1, 2020 through September 30, 2021, and the second and any succeeding 

period(s) will extend for 12 months from the end of the last preceding period, except that the length of the final 

period may vary. The first day of the second and any succeeding period(s) will be the effective date of the 

economic price adjustment for that period.

Pricing adjustments in accordance with this clause will be based on changes in the seasonally adjusted “Consumer 

Price Index For All Urban Consumers – Commodities Less Food” (Index) published monthly in the CPI Detailed 

Report by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The economic price adjustment will be the percentage difference between Index averages as specified in this 

paragraph. An index called the variable index will be calculated by averaging the monthly Indexes from the 12-

month interval ending three (3) months prior to the beginning of the period being considered for adjustment. This 

average is then compared to the average of the monthly Indexes for the 12-month interval ending June 30, 2020, 

called the base index. The percentage change (plus or minus) of the variable index from the base index will be the 

economic price adjustment for the period being considered for adjustment.

The Government will notify the contractor by contract modification specifying the percentage increase or 

decrease to be applied to invoices for orders placed during the period indicated. The contractor shall apply the 

percentage increase or decrease against the total price of the invoice less reimbursable postage or transportation 

costs and separately adjusted paper prices. Payment discounts shall be applied after the invoice price is adjusted.

If the Government exercises an option, the extended contract shall be considered to include this economic price 

adjustment clause.

NOTE: This contract does not have a Paper Price Adjustment clause.

ASSIGNMENT OF JACKETS, PURCHASE AND PRINT ORDERS

A GPO jacket number will be assigned and a purchase order issued to the contractor to cover work performed. 

The purchase order will be supplemented by an individual “Print Order” for each job placed with the contractor. 

The print order, when issued, will indicate the quantity to be produced and any other information pertinent to the 

particular order.

PREAWARD SURVEY

In order to determine the responsibility of the prime contractor or any subcontractor, the Government reserves the 

right to conduct an on-site preaward survey at the contractor’s/subcontractor’s facility or to require other evidence 

of technical, production, managerial, financial, and similar abilities to perform, prior to the award of a contract. 

As part of the financial determination, the contractor in line for award may be required to provide one or more of
