Question: For multiyear task orders, can order prices be escalated even though there is just one column of prices shown on the contractor’s GSA Advantage!®-posted pricelist, as long as the future (but currently not specified) Schedule contract price is never exceeded?

NAICS Codes, Business Size and Schedule Orders
This blog post discusses the NAICS Codes on the Schedule contracts and their impact on your order in addition to the impact of that NAICS Code on contractor size determination both at the Schedules contract level and at the task order level. Each Schedule's standing solicitation posted at FedBizOpps contains the NAICS Codes corresponding to the scope of that Schedule - - and sometimes even to a particular SIN on that Schedule.

FAR Part 15 Doesn’t Apply - - So Don’t Use It
When Ordering Officers are unfamiliar with Schedules ordering, they understandably fall back on what they do know: the (more complex) FAR Part 15 procedures. Remember that Part 15 is not just unnecessary for a Subpart 8.4 procurement, but also: (1) not a word in FAR Part 15 applies to Schedule orders/BPAs [FAR 8.404(a)], and (2) trying to import ideas like "discussions," "competitive range," "debriefing," and "proposals/offers" into Schedules ordering can actually end up doing more harm than good.

What Is a Request for Information (RFI) Posted to GSA eBuy?
Schedule order market research is no different than the market research you do for your open market (non-Schedule) procurements. FAR Part 10 applies to Schedule orders, too. The Request for Information (RFI) you post to eBuy is really the same as the Sources Sought Notice you would post on FedBizOpps for a non-Schedule procurement. As this is part of market research, you are asking for statements of capability rather than quotes. A draft Performance Work Statement is typically included. In those cases, comments are typically solicited on that Draft PWS document. The RFI can then serve

Can I issue Technical Direction Letters (AKA Technical Instructions) under a Schedule Task Order?
Yes. Or to be more accurate, I don’t see any reason why not. There is certainly nothing in regulation or policy I am aware of which would preclude the inclusion of TDLs/TIs in a Schedule task order. So for those of you who are familiar with the concept and have established procedures/formats I would say, “go for it!”

Can Schedule Orders (and Schedule BPAs) Be Set-Aside for Small Business?
YES! Brad and I have said the answer to this question has been no for years. Well, now as a result of the Small Business Act of 2010 and FAR Case 2011-024, the answer is a resounding yes. It is now optional for agencies to set-aside acquisitions for small business. For additional information: Click Here.
