- Description
- QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (13 APRIL 2010) QUESTION 1: Can you confirm the invoicing requirements for the FFP CLINs will be the total price for each year divided by the number of months in each period - - total price/12months = monthly invoice amount? ANSWER 1: That's correct. The FFP monthly invoice amount will be the total amount of the period divided by the amount of months in that period. ____________________________________________________________ QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (9 APRIL 2010) QUESTION 1: Due to the solicitation stating that this is going to be a FFP contract award, is the requirement stated in paragraph #5 - "The cost/price volume shall also include proposed price per CLIN; proposed level of effort per labor category; identification of cost; oversight of proposed labor costs (billing rates); mapping of price to WBS and other direct costs (material, travel, etc.); indirect costs (overhead, fringe, G&A, etc.); profit/fee; and total cost." - of the Combined Synopsis/Solicitation under HM017709R0053a applicable? ANSWER 1: Yes, we would like to see as much build up as you can provide since this contract is for services. QUESTION 2: We normally don't submit all that info for a FFP. Is it acceptable to just submit T&M rates with hours but not all the build up? ANSWER 2: We can not accept loaded rates. We want to see G&A, Fringe, Overhead, profit, etc. for FFP. __________________________________________________________________________ This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for non-commercial items.
