Ordering Procedures for Services
The following ordering procedures were developed to assist our customer agencies in the purchase of services that are priced at hourly rates.
Procedures for Services Priced on GSA Schedules at Hourly Rates
The GSA has determined that the rates for services contained in our price list on the Federal Supply Schedule are fair and reasonable. However, the ordering office using this contract is responsible for considering the level of effort and mixes of labor proposed to perform specific tasks being ordered and making a determination that the total firm-fixed price (FFP) or ceiling price is fair and reasonable. Delivery orders may be placed by either the Federal agency or the GSA Federal Supply Service. These ordering procedures take precedence over FAR 8.404.
When ordering services, ordering offices shall -----
1. Prepare a Request for Quote (RFQ):
- Prepare
a statement of work (SOW) outlining the work to be performed, location of
work, period performance, deliverables schedule, applicable standards,
acceptable criteria and any special requirements (i.e., security
clearances, travel, special knowledge).
- Include
the SOW, a request for contractors to submit either a FFP or a ceiling
price to perform the services described in the SOW. The FFP shall be based
on the hourly rates in the Federal Supply Schedule contract and shall
consider the mix of labor categories and level of effort required to
perform the services described in the statement of work.
- The
FFP of the order may include any other incidental costs related to
performance of the services ordered.
- A
firm-fixed price order shall be requested unless the ordering office makes
a determination that it is not possible to estimate accurately the extent
or duration of work or to anticipate cost with any reasonable degree of
confidence. When such a determination is made, a labor hour quote may be
requested. A ceiling price must be established for labor hour and
time-and-material orders.
- Reimbursements
of travel costs at the rates provided in the Federal Travel or Joint
Travel Regulation rates, or as a fixed-price incidental line item.
- If
necessary, contractors may be requested to submit a project plan and/or
information on the contractor s experience and past performance on similar
tasks.
- Include information on the selection criteria and intended use of past performance factors.
Ordering offices should
strive to minimize the contractor’s cost associated with responding to RFQs.
Tailor the RFQ to the minimum level necessary to make a best value selection.
Oral presentations should be considered whenever possible.
2. Transmit the Request for Quote to Contractors
- Evaluate
catalogs and price lists to identify the contractors that appear to offer
the best value.
- Provide
the RFQ to at least three (3) contractors if the order exceeds the
micro-purchase level. If the order exceeds the maximum purchase threshold,
send the RFQ to more than three contractors.
3. Evaluate quotes and select the contractor to receive
an order
- Evaluate
contactors based on the factors identified in the RFQ.
- Select
the contractor that represents the best value to meet the Government s
needs.
A. FAR 8.402 contemplates that GSA may occasionally find it necessary to establish special ordering procedures for individual Federal Supply Schedules or for some Special Item Numbers (SINs) within a Schedule. GSA has established special ordering procedures for services that are priced Federal Schedule contract at hourly rates. These special ordering procedures take precedence over the procedures in FAR 8.404.
B. When the ordering office’s requirement involves both products as well as professional services, the ordering office should total the prices for the products and the firm-fixed price for the services and select the contractor that represents the greatest value in terms of meeting the ordering offices total needs.
C. The ordering office, should document orders purchased from the contractor and the amount paid. If other than a FFP order is placed, such documentation should include the basis for the determination to use a labor hour order. For agency requirements in excess of the micro-purchase threshold, the order file should document the evaluation of contractors quotes that formed the basis for the selection of the contractor that received the order and the rationale for any trade-offs made in making the selection.
I-FSS-125 Requirements Exceeding the Maximum Order (August 1997).
A delivery order that exceeds the maximum order may be placed with the contractor selected in accordance with FAR 8.804. The order will be placed under the contract as follows.
- Before
placing an order, Ordering Offices
shall:
- Review additional Federal Supply Schedule, contractor’s catalogs and/or price lists or use the GSA Advantage! on-line shopping service.
- Based on the initial evaluation, generally seek price reductions from the schedule contractor(s) appearing to provide the best value; and
i. After price reductions have been sought, place the order with the schedule contractor that provides the best value and results in the lowest overall cost alternative. See FAR 8.804
ii. If further price reductions are not offered, an order may still be placed if the ordering office determines it is appropriate.
- Vendors may:
i. Offer a new lower price for the requirement (the price reduction clause is not applicable to orders placed over the maximum order(FAR 52.216-19);
ii. Offer the lowest price available under the contract; or
iii.
Decline
the order (The order must be returned in accordance with FAR 52.216-19).
