DISPUTES (Jan 2010)

 

(a)

Definitions. For purposes of this clause:

 

“Board” means the Civilian Board of Contract Appeals or such successor Board as may be established by law.

 

“Arbitration decision” means a decision of the Board in an arbitration pursuant to this clause.

 

 

“Claim” means a written demand or written assertion by either contracting party seeking as a matter of right, the payment of money in a sum certain, the adjustment or interpretation of a subcontract term, or other relief arising under, or relating to, this subcontract. A voucher, invoice, or other request for payment or equitable adjustment under the terms of the subcontract that is not in dispute when submitted is not a claim. The SUBCONTRACTOR may convert such submission into a claim if it is disputed either as to liability or amount, or is not acted upon in a reasonable time, by demanding a decision by the Subcontract Administrator.

 

“Counterclaim” means a claim asserted in a pleading filed with the Board in an arbitration proceeding pursuant to this clause which arises from the same occurrence or transaction that is the subject matter of the opposing party’s claim. Counterclaims do not need to be submitted to the Subcontract Administrator for decision.

 

	(b)	Nature of the Subcontract. This subcontract is not a Government contract and, therefore, is not subject to the Contract Disputes Act of 1978 (41 U.S.C. §§601-613). SUBCONTRACTOR acknowledges that GOVERNMENT is not a party to the subcontract, and, for purposes of the subcontract CONTRACTOR is not an agent of GOVERNMENT. Consequently, the provision for arbitration by the Board, as provided for in this clause, does not create or imply the existence of privity of contract between SUBCONTRACTOR and GOVERNMENT.
	(c)	Scope of Clause. The rights and procedures set forth in this clause are the exclusive rights and procedures for resolution of all claims and disputes arising under, or relating to, this subcontract, and no action based upon any claim or dispute arising under, or relating to, this subcontract shall be brought in any court except as provided in this clause. The parties shall be bound by any arbitration decision rendered pursuant to this clause, which shall be vacated, modified, or corrected only as provided in the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§1-16). An arbitration decision may only be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction in the State of New Mexico.

 

(d)

Filing a Claim/Subcontract Administrator’s Decision.

 

	(1)	Unless otherwise provided in this subcontract, SUBCONTRACTOR must file any claim against CONTRACTOR within sixty (60) Days after SUBCONTRACTOR knew or should have known the facts giving rise to the claim. Failure to file a claim within the period prescribed by this paragraph shall constitute a waiver of SUBCONTRACTOR’S right, if any, to an equitable adjustment under the subcontract.
	(2)	SUBCONTRACTOR shall submit any claim in writing to the Subcontract Administrator who shall issue a decision on the matter within sixty (60) Days of receipt of the claim. If the Subcontract Administrator fails to issue a decision within sixty (60) Days, SUBCONTRACTOR may request mediation or demand for arbitration as provided in paragraphs (e) and (f) of this clause.
	(3)	CONTRACTOR may, at any time prior to final payment under the subcontract or expiration of any warranty period, whichever is later, file a claim against SUBCONTRACTOR by issuing a written decision by the Subcontract Administrator asserting such a claim.
	(4)	The decision of the Subcontract Administrator shall be final and conclusive unless SUBCONTRACTOR requests mediation or demands arbitration in accordance with the terms of this clause.

 

 

(e)

Request for Mediation.

 

(1)

If the decision of the Subcontract Administrator is not satisfactory to SUBCONTRACTOR, or the Subcontract Administrator has failed to timely issue a decision in accordance with

 

subparagraph (d) 2) of this provision, and SUBCONTRACTOR desires to pursue further action, SUBCONTRACTOR may request that the matter be scheduled for mediation. The request for mediation must be made within forty-five (45) Days after receipt of the Subcontract Administrator’s decision.

 

	(2)	If the Subcontract Administrator believes that mediation of the dispute is likely to lead to a satisfactory resolution, he or she will so inform SUBCONTRACTOR and the matter will be scheduled for mediation. The parties will agree on the format of the mediation and will jointly select the mediator. The cost of the mediator and related expenses shall be divided evenly between the parties.
	(3)	If the Subcontract Administrator decides that mediation is not likely to lead to a satisfactory resolution of the claim, or that a mediation undertaken pursuant to this clause has been unsuccessful, he or she will so inform SUBCONTRACTOR in writing.

 

(f)

Demand for Arbitration. If the decision of the Subcontract Administrator is not satisfactory to SUBCONTRACTOR, or if SUBCONTRACTOR’S request for mediation has been denied, or a mediation undertaken pursuant to paragraph (e) of this clause has been unsuccessful, or the Subcontract Administrator has failed to timely issue a decision in accordance with subparagraph(d) (2) of this clause, and SUBCONTRACTOR desires to pursue further action, SUBCONTRACTOR must submit to the Board a written demand for arbitration of the claim within forty-five (45) Days after receipt of the Subcontract Administrator’s decision, or within forty-five (45) Days after the Subcontract Administrator notifies SUBCONTRACTOR that its request for mediation has been denied or that the mediation undertaken pursuant to paragraph (e) has been unsuccessful, whichever is later.

 

	(g)	Arbitration Procedures/Costs. The Board shall arbitrate the claim and any counterclaims in accordance with the Rules of the Board. All claims for $100,000 or less shall be arbitrated under the Board’s Small Claims (Expedited) Procedure. All other claims, regardless of dollar amount, shall be arbitrated under the Board’s Accelerated Procedure. Both parties shall be afforded an opportunity to be heard and to present evidence in accordance with the Rules of the Board. Unless the Board orders otherwise, each party shall pay its own costs of prosecuting or defending an arbitration before the Board.
	(h)	Review of Arbitration Decision. An arbitration decision shall be final and conclusive unless a party files a timely action to vacate, modify, or correct the decision pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act.
	(i)	Subcontractor Performance Pending Claim Resolution. SUBCONTRACTOR shall proceed diligently with performance of the subcontract and shall comply with any decision of the Subcontract Administrator pending final resolution of any claim or dispute arising under, or relating to, the subcontract.
	(j)	Choice of Law. The subcontract shall be governed by federal law as provided in this paragraph. Irrespective of the place of award, execution, or performance, the subcontract shall be construed and interpreted, and its validity determined, according to the federal common law of government contracts as enunciated and applied to prime government contracts by the federal boards of contract appeals and federal courts having appellate jurisdiction over their decisions rendered pursuant to the Contract Disputes Act of 1978. The Federal Arbitration Act, other federal statutes, and federal rules shall govern as applicable. To the extent that federal common law of government contracts is not dispositive, the laws of the State of New Mexico shall apply.
	(k)	Interest. Interest on amounts adjudicated due and unpaid by a party shall be paid from the date the complaining party files a demand for arbitration with the Board. Interest on claims shall be paid at the rate established by the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States pursuant to Public Law 92-41 (85 Stat. 97).

INVOICING AND PAYMENT (Nov 2018)

 

(a)

SUBCONTRACTOR shall prepare and submit invoices pursuant to the Special Condition titled “MEASUREMENT FOR PAYMENT.” CONTRACTOR may reject all or part of an invoice because the measurement for payment provisions have not been met, noting the deficiencies for SUBCONTRACTOR correction and compliance with the subcontract requirements.

 

CONTRACTOR may require SUBCONTRACTOR to withhold amounts from its ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ until a reserve is set aside in an amount that the Subcontract Administrator considers necessary to protect CONTRACTOR’S interests. The Subcontract Administrator may require a withhold of up to 5 percent (5%) of the amounts due to SUBCONTRACTOR, but the total amount shall not exceed $50,000.

The amounts withheld shall be retained until the Subcontract Administrator no longer deems such action necessary to protect CONTRACTOR’S interests.

 

Within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of an invoice, CONTRACTOR will pay SUBCONTRACTOR the approved invoice amount, less any withholds.

 

CONTRACTOR may, as a condition precedent to any payment, require SUBCONTRACTOR to submit for itself, its subcontractors, immediate and remote, and all material suppliers, vendors, laborers and other parties acting through or under it, complete waivers and releases of all claims against CONTRACTOR or GOVERNMENT arising under or by virtue of this subcontract. Upon request, SUBCONTRACTOR shall in addition furnish acceptable evidence that all such claims have been satisfied.

 

Failure to specify the subcontract number or to submit supporting documentation may be cause for invoice rejection or delay in payment.

 

(b)

Any amounts otherwise payable under this subcontract may be withheld, in whole or in part, if:

 

	(1)	Any claims are filed against SUBCONTRACTOR by CONTRACTOR, GOVERNMENT or third parties (for which CONTRACTOR or GOVERNMENT is or may become liable);
	(2)	SUBCONTRACTOR is in default of any subcontract condition;
	(3)	Adjustments are due from previous overpayment or audit result; or
	(4)	Offsets in favor of CONTRACTOR in other transactions are asserted.

 

CONTRACTOR will pay SUBCONTRACTOR such withheld payments when all issues are resolved to CONTRACTOR’S satisfaction.

 

 

If claims filed against SUBCONTRACTOR connected with performance under this subcontract, for which CONTRACTOR may be held liable if unpaid (e.g., unpaid withholding and back taxes), are not promptly discharged by SUBCONTRACTOR after receipt of written notice from CONTRACTOR to do so, CONTRACTOR may discharge such claims and deduct all costs in

 

connection with such removal from withheld payments or other monies due, or which may become due, to SUBCONTRACTOR. If the amount of such withheld payment or other monies due SUBCONTRACTOR under this subcontract is insufficient to meet such costs, or if any claim against SUBCONTRACTOR is discharged by CONTRACTOR after final payment is made, SUBCONTRACTOR and its surety or sureties, if any, shall promptly pay CONTRACTOR all costs incurred thereby regardless of when such claim arose.

COMMENCEMENT, PROGRESS AND COMPLETION OF THE WORK [Task Order Agreement] (Jun 2009)

(a)

Notwithstanding anything contained in the subcontract documents to the contrary, this “subcontract” does not procure or specify a firm quantity of services from SUBCONTRACTOR. It is a blanket agreement for the work or services specified in Exhibit D, Scope of Work, and provides the terms and conditions that will be applicable to any bilateral written task orders (i.e., orders for the performance of tasks during the period of performance) issued hereunder.

 

Period of Performance: June 04, 2019 through June 03, 2020.

 

	(b)	SUBCONTRACTOR’S authority to perform work under this “subcontract” is contingent upon the issuance of one or more task orders. When a task order is issued, SUBCONTRACTOR shall furnish sufficient personnel, equipment, and facilities and shall work such hours to assure prosecution of the work to completion in accordance with the schedule contained in any task order.
	(c)	The initial term of this “subcontract” during which task orders may be issued hereunder is twelve (12) months beginning on the effective date of this “subcontract”. The term of this “subcontract” may be extended for up to twelve (12) months beyond the initial term by giving written notice to the SUBCONTRACTOR by the date specified as the expiration date of the subcontract. CONTRACTOR will attempt to give the SUBCONTRACTOR a preliminary written notice of its intent to extend the term of the subcontract at least sixty (60) days before the then current expiration date; however, the preliminary notice shall not be a commitment by CONTRACTOR to extend the term of the subcontract. Failure to provide the preliminary notice at least sixty (60) days before the current expiration date does not prevent CONTRACTOR from the exercise of an option. The exercise of an option to extend the term of this subcontract shall be accomplished by a bilateral written subcontract modification issued by CONTRACTOR. Such extensions may be made from time to time or in one modification. The period of performance of tasks ordered and delivery dates for any deliverable items shall be specified in each task order.
	(d)	The maximum cumulative dollar value of all task orders that may be issued pursuant to this “subcontract” is the ceiling price set forth below. A price ceiling will also be established for each task order and cannot be exceeded, except by mutual written agreement of the parties. The ceiling price for all work called for under this “subcontract” is Ten Million U.S. Dollars ($10,000,000.00). SUBCONTRACTOR waives its right to monies to which it might otherwise have been entitled for any amount expended in excess of the ceiling price for this “subcontract”.

 

  

Dated February 23, 2020

 

	(e)	CONTRACTOR may issue one or more task orders to SUBCONTRACTOR for work or services required by CONTRACTOR. When and if ordered by CONTRACTOR and accepted by SUBCONTRACTOR, SUBCONTRACTOR shall perform the work or furnish the services specified in a task order. Each task order issued shall: (1) be deemed to be an individual subcontract priced upon the basis specified in the task order; (2) contain a price ceiling that cannot be exceeded without mutual written agreement of the parties; and (3) be subject to the terms and conditions of this “subcontract”. In the event of conflict between a task order and this “subcontract”, this “subcontract” shall control. SUBCONTRACTOR shall complete any task order issued during the effective period of this “subcontract” and not completed within that period within the time specified in the task order. This “subcontract” shall govern the rights and obligations of the parties with respect to that task order to the same extent as if the task order was completed during the effective period of this “subcontract”.
	(f)	When applicable, SUBCONTRACTOR shall be required to submit certified cost or pricing data to CONTRACTOR prior to the issuance of a task order.

Remediation of GE System

 

1.

Remedial action where determined by category and subsystem:

 

a)

Category A: Less than MDC

▪

Will perform an internal contamination survey on GE-3 and GE-4 with a specific focus on fan blades. If the category of these fans change to C or D based on the internal surveys, this will be reported to the G5 and a proposed remediation path developed consistent with these guiding principles;

▪

If there is removable contamination, SUB will make a good faith effort to remediate; otherwise, no further action is required on other subsystems.

 

b)

Category B: Greater than MDC, but less than 10% of DCGL (below action level)

▪

Will perform an internal contamination survey on GE-1 and GE-2 with a specific focus on fan blades. If the category of these fans change to C or D based on the internal surveys, this will be reported to the G5 and a proposed remediation path developed consistent with these guiding principles;

 

 

▪

If there is removable contamination, SUB will make a good faith effort to remediate; otherwise, no further action is required on other subsystems.

 

c)

Category C: Greater than 10% of DCGL (above action level), but less than DCGL (less than release limits)

▪

This includes only 2 areas: GE-2 fan discharge duct and the crosstie plenum;

▪

SUB has good access to the two above areas and will plan to clean/decontamination;

▪

If there is removable contamination, SUB will make a good faith effort to remediate.

 

d)

Category D: Greater than DCGL (above regulatory release limit)

▪

This includes the ducts on the second floor, the Southeast Riser, and the East Plenum;

▪

Sub will remove and replace the ducts on the second floor;

▪

We have good access to the Southeast Riser and the East Plenum and we will clean/decontaminate;

▪

If there is removable contamination, Sub will make a good faith effort to remediate.

 

e)

As a general principle representing good housekeeping and As Low as Reasonably Achievable (ALARA) principles, we agreed that if there is removable contamination, SUB will make a good faith effort to remediate.

 

f)

As we go through the system and remediate, we will pay close attention to the areas and places where people will likely touch—for example, air registers, fire dampers, and instrumentation as well as bends in ducting where contamination may get concentrated. SUB will also ensure that there is a good statistical sampling of these areas during Final Status Surveys (FSS).

Note: Executive Order (EO) 13706 Establishing Paid Sick Leave for Federal Contractors applies to all contracts subject to the Service Contract Act for which the contract is awarded (and any solicitation was issued) on or after January 1 2017. If this contract is covered by the EO the contractor must provide employees with 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours they work up to 56 hours of paid sick leave each year. Employees must be permitted to use paid sick leave for their own illness injury or other health-related needs including preventive care; to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is ill injured or has other health-related needs including preventive care; or for reasons resulting from or to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is the victim of domestic violence sexual assault or stalking. Additional information on contractor requirements and worker protections under the EO is available at ▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇/▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.

 

 

ALL OCCUPATIONS LISTED ABOVE RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING BENEFITS:

 

HEALTH & WELFARE: $4.54 per hour up to 40 hours per week or $181.60 per week or $786.93 per month

 

HEALTH & WELFARE EO 13706: $4.22 per hour up to 40 hours per week or $168.80 per week or $731.47 per month*

 

*This rate is to be used only when compensating employees for performance on an SCA- covered contract also covered by EO 13706 Establishing Paid Sick Leave for Federal Contractors. A contractor may not receive credit toward its SCA obligations for any paid sick leave provided pursuant to EO 13706.

 

VACATION: 2 weeks paid vacation after 1 year of service with a contractor or successor 3 weeks after 5 years and 4 weeks after 15 years. Length of service includes the whole span of continuous service with the present contractor or successor wherever employed and with the predecessor contractors in the performance of similar work at the same Federal facility. (Reg. 29 CFR 4.173)

 

HOLIDAYS: A minimum of ten paid holidays per year: New Year’s Day ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇.’s Birthday Washington’s Birthday Memorial Day Independence Day Labor Day Columbus Day Veterans’ Day Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. (A contractor may substitute for any of the named holidays another day off with pay in accordance with a plan communicated to the employees involved.) (See 29 CFR 4.174)

 

THE OCCUPATIONS WHICH HAVE NUMBERED FOOTNOTES IN PARENTHESES RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING:

 

1) COMPUTER EMPLOYEES: Under the SCA at section 8(b) this wage determination does not apply to any employee who individually qualifies as a bona fide executive administrative or professional employee as defined in 29 C.F.R. Part 541. Because most Computer System Analysts and Computer Programmers who are compensated at a rate not less than $27.63 (or on a salary or fee basis at a rate not less than $455 per week) an hour would likely qualify as exempt computer professionals (29 C.F.R. 541. 400) wage rates may not be listed on this wage determination for all occupations within those job families. In addition because this wage determination may not list a wage rate for some or all occupations within those job families if the survey data indicates that the prevailing wage rate for the occupation equals or exceeds $27.63 per hour conformances may be necessary for certain nonexempt employees. For example if an individual employee is nonexempt but nevertheless performs duties within the scope of one of the Computer Systems Analyst or Computer Programmer occupations for which this wage determination does not specify an SCA wage rate then the wage rate for that employee must be conformed in accordance with the conformance procedures described in the conformance note included on this wage determination.

 

 

Additionally because job titles vary widely and change quickly in the computer industry job titles are not determinative of the application of the computer professional exemption. Therefore the exemption applies only to computer employees who satisfy the compensation requirements and whose primary duty consists of:

 

(1) The application of systems analysis techniques and procedures including consulting with users to determine hardware software or system functional specifications;

 

(2) The design development documentation analysis creation testing or modification of computer systems or programs including prototypes based on and related to user or system design specifications;

 

(3) The design documentation testing creation or modification of computer programs related to machine operating systems; or

 

(4) A combination of the aforementioned duties the performance of which requires the same level of skills. (29 C.F.R. 541.400).

** HAZARDOUS PAY DIFFERENTIAL **

 

An 8 percent differential is applicable to employees employed in a position that represents a high degree of hazard when working with or in close proximity to ordnance explosives and incendiary materials. This includes work such as screening blending dying mixing and pressing of sensitive ordnance explosives and pyrotechnic compositions such as lead azide black powder and photoflash powder. All dry-house activities involving propellants or explosives. Demilitarization modification renovation demolition and maintenance operations on sensitive ordnance explosives and incendiary materials. All operations involving re-grading and cleaning of artillery ranges.

All operations involving unloading storage and hauling of ordnance explosive and incendiary ordnance material other than small arms ammunition. These differentials are only applicable to work that has been specifically designated by the agency for ordnance explosives and incendiary material differential pay.

 

 

** UNIFORM ALLOWANCE **

 

If employees are required to wear uniforms in the performance of this contract (either by the terms of the Government contract by the employer by the state or local law etc.) the cost of furnishing such uniforms and maintaining (by laundering or dry cleaning) such uniforms is an expense that may not be borne by an employee where such cost reduces the hourly rate below that required by the wage determination. The Department of Labor will accept payment in accordance with the following standards as compliance:

 

The contractor or subcontractor is required to furnish all employees with an adequate number of uniforms without cost or to reimburse employees for the actual cost of the uniforms. In addition where uniform cleaning and maintenance is made the responsibility of the employee all contractors and subcontractors subject to this wage determination shall (in the absence of a bona fide collective bargaining agreement providing for a different amount or the furnishing of contrary affirmative proof as to the actual cost) reimburse all employees for such cleaning and maintenance at a rate of $3.35 per week (or $.67 cents per day). However in those instances where the uniforms furnished are made of “wash and wear” materials may be routinely washed and dried with other personal garments and do not require any special treatment such as dry cleaning daily washing or commercial laundering in order to meet the cleanliness or appearance standards set by the terms of the Government contract by the contractor by law or by the nature of the work there is no requirement that employees be reimbursed for uniform maintenance costs.

 

** SERVICE CONTRACT ACT DIRECTORY OF OCCUPATIONS **

 

The duties of employees under job titles listed are those described in the “Service Contract Act Directory of Occupations” Fifth Edition (Revision 1) dated September 2015 unless otherwise indicated.

 

** REQUEST FOR AUTHORIZATION OF ADDITIONAL CLASSIFICATION AND WAGE RATE Standard Form 1444 (SF-1444) **

 

Conformance Process:

 

The contracting officer shall require that any class of service employee which is not listed herein and which is to be employed under the contract (i.e. the work to be performed is not performed by any classification listed in the wage determination) be classified by the contractor so as to provide a reasonable relationship (i.e. appropriate level of skill comparison) between such unlisted classifications and the classifications listed in the wage determination (See 29 CFR 4.6(b)(2)(i)). Such conforming procedures shall be initiated by the contractor prior to the performance of contract work by such unlisted class(es) of employees (See 29 CFR 4.6(b)(2)(ii)). The Wage and Hour Division shall make a final determination of conformed classification wage rate and/or fringe benefits which shall be paid to all employees performing in the classification from the first day of work on which contract work is performed by them in the classification. Failure to pay such unlisted employees the compensation agreed upon by the interested parties and/or fully determined by the Wage and Hour Division retroactive to the date such class of employees commenced contract work shall be a violation of the Act and this contract. (See 29 CFR 4.6(b)(2)(v)). When multiple wage determinations are included in a contract a separate SF-1444 should be prepared for each wage determination to which a class(es) is to be conformed.

 

 

The process for preparing a conformance request is as follows:

 

1) When preparing the bid the contractor identifies the need for a conformed occupation(s) and computes a proposed rate(s).

 

2) After contract award the contractor prepares a written report listing in order the proposed classification title(s) a Federal grade equivalency (FGE) for each proposed classification(s) job description(s) and rationale for proposed wage rate(s) including information regarding the agreement or disagreement of the authorized representative of the employees involved or where there is no authorized representative the employees themselves. This report should be submitted to the contracting officer no later than 30 days after such unlisted class(es) of employees performs any contract work.

 

3) The contracting officer reviews the proposed action and promptly submits a report of the action together with the agency’s recommendations and pertinent information including the position of the contractor and the employees to the U.S. Department of Labor Wage and Hour Division for review (See 29 CFR 4.6(b)(2)(ii)).

 

4) Within 30 days of receipt the Wage and Hour Division approves modifies or disapproves the action via transmittal to the agency contracting officer or notifies the contracting officer that additional time will be required to process the request.

 

5) The contracting officer transmits the Wage and Hour Division’s decision to the contractor.

 

6) Each affected employee shall be furnished by the contractor with a written copy of such determination or it shall be posted as a part of the wage determination (See 29 CFR 4.6(b)(2)(iii)).

 

Information required by the Regulations must be submitted on SF-1444 or bond paper.

 

When preparing a conformance request the “Service Contract Act Directory of Occupations” should be used to compare job definitions to ensure that duties requested are not performed by a classification already listed in the wage determination. Remember it is not the job title but the required tasks that determine whether a class is included in an established wage determination. Conformances may not be used to artificially split combine or subdivide classifications listed in the wage determination (See 29 CFR 4.152(c)(1)).”

		CEILING PRICE:

Payments will be made to SUBCONTRACTOR in accordance with the prices set forth in Exhibit “C” and with the payment provisions of this subcontract. The SUBCONTRACTOR waives its right to monies to which it might otherwise have been entitled for any amount expended in excess of the ceiling price.
	2.	Exhibit “B” Special Conditions (dated July 22, 2019), SC-105 Limitation of Funds is replaced in its entirety with the below:
		SC-105 LIMITATION OF FUNDS (Aug 2014)
		(a)	The amount of funds presently available for payment by CONTRACTOR and allotted to this subcontract is Thirty-Eight Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($38,500,000.00). SUBCONTRACTOR shall perform or have performed Work up to the point at which the total amount paid and payable approximates, but does not exceed the total amount actually allotted.
		(b)	CONTRACTOR will allot additional funds incrementally to the subcontract up to the full subcontract ceiling, provided funds are made available by GOVERNMENT. Directed Change Orders issued under the Changes clause shall not be considered an authorization to exceed the allotted amount.
		(c)	SUBCONTRACTOR shall notify CONTRACTOR in writing whenever it has reason to believe that the amount to be invoiced under this subcontract in the next thirty (30) days, when added to all previously invoiced amounts, will exceed 80% of the total funds allotted. Upon notification, CONTRACTOR will allot additional funds or may suspend or terminate the subcontract in accordance with its terms.

 

 

		(c)	SUBCONTRACTOR is not authorized to continue performance or otherwise incur costs in excess of the allotted funds, unless one of the following exceptions applies: (1) if required to protect and maintain the Work in accordance with General Condition GC-44 SUSPENSION; or (2) protect and preserve the property related to this subcontract in accordance with GC- 47(x) TERMINATION FOR CONVENIENCE.
	3.	Exhibit “B” Special Conditions (dated July 22, 2019), SC-3A Commencement, Progress, and Completion of Work is replaced in its entirety with SC-3C Commencement, Progress, and Completion of the Work as shown below:

 

	SC-3C		COMMENCEMENT, PROGRESS AND COMPLETION OF THE WORK [Task Order Agreement] (Jun 2009)
			(a)	Notwithstanding anything contained in the subcontract documents to the contrary, this “subcontract” does not procure or specify a firm quantity of services from SUBCONTRACTOR. It is a blanket agreement for the work or services specified in Exhibit D, Scope of Work, and provides the terms and conditions that will be applicable to any bilateral written task orders (i.e., orders for the performance of tasks during the period of performance) issued hereunder.
				Base Year Period of Performance: June 04, 2019 through March 31, 2021.
			(b)	SUBCONTRACTOR’S authority to perform work under this “subcontract” is contingent upon the issuance of one or more task orders. When a task order is issued, SUBCONTRACTOR shall furnish sufficient personnel, equipment, and facilities and shall work such hours to assure prosecution of the work to completion in accordance with the schedule contained in any task order.
			(c)	The initial term of this “subcontract” during which task orders may be issued hereunder is twelve (12) months beginning on the effective date of this “subcontract”. The term of this “subcontract” may be extended for up to twenty four (24) months beyond the initial term by giving written notice to the SUBCONTRACTOR by the date specified as the expiration date of the subcontract. CONTRACTOR will attempt to give the SUBCONTRACTOR a preliminary written notice of its intent to extend the term of the subcontract at least sixty (60) days before the then current expiration date; however, the preliminary notice shall not be a commitment by CONTRACTOR to extend the term of the subcontract. Failure to provide the preliminary notice at least sixty (60) days before the current expiration date does not prevent CONTRACTOR from the exercise of an option. The exercise of an option to extend the term of this subcontract shall be accomplished by a bilateral written subcontract modification issued by CONTRACTOR. Such extensions may be made from time to time or in one modification. The period of performance of tasks ordered and delivery dates for any deliverable items shall be specified in each task order.
			(d)	The maximum cumulative dollar value of all task orders that may be issued pursuant to this “subcontract” is the ceiling price set forth below. A price ceiling will also be established for each task order and cannot be exceeded, except by mutual written agreement of the parties. The ceiling price for all work called for under this “subcontract” is Thirty-Eight Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($38,500,000.00). SUBCONTRACTOR waives its right to monies to which it might otherwise have been entitled for any amount expended in excess of the ceiling price for this “subcontract”.

 

 

			(e)	CONTRACTOR may issue one or more task orders to SUBCONTRACTOR for work or services required by CONTRACTOR. When and if ordered by CONTRACTOR and accepted by SUBCONTRACTOR, SUBCONTRACTOR shall perform the work or furnish the services specified in a task order. Each task order issued shall: (1) be deemed to be an individual subcontract priced upon the basis specified in the task order; (2) contain a price ceiling that cannot be exceeded without mutual written agreement of the parties; and (3) be subject to the terms and conditions of this “subcontract”. In the event of conflict between a task order and this “subcontract”, this “subcontract” shall control. SUBCONTRACTOR shall complete any task order issued during the effective period of this “subcontract” and not completed within that period within the time specified in the task order. This “subcontract” shall govern the rights and obligations of the parties with respect to that task order to the same extent as if the task order was completed during the effective period of this “subcontract”.
			(f)	When applicable, SUBCONTRACTOR shall be required to submit certified cost or pricing data to CONTRACTOR prior to the issuance of a task order.

 

Subcontract ceiling before modification:		$	25,000,000.00
Dollar amount of this modification:		$	13,500,000.00
Subcontract ceiling as modified:		$	38,500,000.00

 

The undersigned personally assert authorization to execute this modification on behalf of the parties.
