1.0 SCOPE: a. Services provided under Special Item Numbers 899-1, 899-2, 899-3, 899-4, and 899-5 Environmental Advisory Services (EAS) apply to all Federal agencies, both civilian and Defense. b. The prices, terms and conditions stated under Special Item Numbers 899-1, 899-2, 899-3, 899-4, and 899-5 EAS apply exclusively to EAS within the scope of this Schedule. c. EG&G shall provide services at EG&G's facility and/or at the Government location, as agreed to by EG&G and the ordering office. "On-site" pricing schedules reflect work to be performed at EG&G's facilities; "off-site" pricing reflects work performed at customer locations. An adjusted rate is required for services to be performed in the geographic areas of Hawaii, Alaska and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. 2.0 ORDERING PROCEDURES: (1) GSA has determined that the rates for EAS contained in this price
list are fair and reasonable. However, the ordering office using this
contract is responsible for considering the level of effort and mix of
labor proposed to perform a specific task being ordered and for making
a determination that the total firm fixed price or ceiling price is fair
and reasonable. |
ordering office makes a determination that it is not possible
at the time of placing the order to estimate accurately the extent or duration
of the work or to anticipate costs with any reasonable degree of confidence.
When such a determination is made, a labor-hour or time?and?materials proposal
may be requested. The firm fixed price shall be based on the hourly rates
in the Schedule contract and shall consider the mix of labor categories
and level of effort required to perform the services described in the SOW.
The firm fixed price of the order should also include any travel costs or
other incidental costs related to performance of the services ordered, unless
the order provides for reimbursement of travel costs at the rates provided
in the Federal Travel Regulations or JTR. A ceiling price must be established
for labor-hour and time-and-materials orders. (iii) The RFP may request that EG&G submit, if necessary or appropriate, a project plan for performing the task and information on EG&G's experience and/or past performance performing similar tasks. (iv) The RFP shall notify EG&G of the basis to be used for selecting the Schedule Contractor to receive the order. The notice shall include the basis for determining whether EG&G is technically qualified and provide an explanation regarding the intended use of any experience and/or past performance information in determining technical acceptability of responses. If consideration will be limited to Schedule contractors who are small business concerns, the RFP shall notify EG&G that this will be the case. (B)
Transmit the RFP to Contractors |

|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
orders. Requests should be tailored to the minimum
level necessary for adequate evaluation and selection for order placement. (C) After responses have been evaluated against the factors identified in the RFP, the order should be placed with the Schedule Contractor who represents the best value and results in the lowest overall cost alternative (considering price, special qualifications, administrative costs, etc.) to meet the Government's needs. (D) Agencies may use written orders, Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) orders, Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPAs), individual purchase orders, or task orders for ordering services under this contract. (E) All task orders are subject to the terms and conditions of the contract. In the event of conflict between a task order and the contract, the contract will take precedence. (3) Establishment of Federal Supply Schedule BPAs for recurring services is permitted (FAR 8.404) when the procedures outlined herein are followed. All BPAs for services must define the services that may be ordered under the BPA, along with delivery or performance time frames, billing procedures, etc. The potential volume of orders under BPAs, regardless of the size of individual orders, may offer the ordering office the opportunity to secure volume discounts. When establishing BPAs, ordering offices shall - (A) Inform contractors in the RFP (based on the agency's requirement) whether a single BPA or multiple BPAs will be established, and indicate the basis that will be used for selecting the Schedule Contractor to be awarded the BPAs. (i) Single BPA: Generally, a single BPA should be established when the ordering office can define the tasks to be ordered under the BPA and establish a firm fixed price or ceiling price for individual tasks or services to be ordered. When this occurs, authorized users may place the order directly under the established BPA when the need for service arises. The Schedule Contractor who represents the best value and results in the lowest overall cost alternative to meet the agency's needs should be awarded the BPA. (ii) Multiple BPAs: When the ordering office determines multiple BPAs are needed to meet its requirements, the ordering office should determine which contractors can meet any technical qualifications before establishing the BPAs. When multiple BPAs are established, the authorized users |
must follow the procedure in (2)(B)(ii) above,
and then place the order with the Schedule Contractor who represents the
best value and results in the lowest overall cost alternative to meet the
agency's needs. (B) Review BPAs periodically. Such reviews shall be conducted at least annually. The purpose of the review is to determine whether the BPA still represents the best value (considering price, special qualifications, etc.) and results in the lowest overall cost alternative to meet the agency's needs. (C) BPAs shall not extend beyond the end of the contract period; all services and deliveries shall be made and the contract terms and conditions shall continue in effect until the completion of the order. Orders for tasks that extend beyond the fiscal year for which funds are available shall include Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 52.232-19 Availability of Funds for the Next Fiscal Year. The purchase order shall specify the availability of funds and the period for which funds are available. (4) The ordering office should give preference to small business concerns when two or more contractors can provide the services at the same firm fixed price or ceiling price. (5) When the ordering office's requirement involves both products as well as MOBIS, the ordering office should total the prices for the products and the firm fixed price for the services, and select the Schedule Contractor that represents the greatest value in terms of meeting the agency's total needs. (6) The ordering office should, at a minimum, document orders by identifying EG&G as the source from which the services were purchased, and listing the services purchased and the amount paid. If other than a firm fixed-price order is placed, such documentation should include the basis for the determination to use a labor-hour or time-and-materials order. For agency requirements in excess of the micro-purchase threshold, the order file should document the evaluation of Schedule Contractors' proposals that formed the basis for selecting the Schedule Contractor that received the order and the rationale for any trade-offs made in making the selection. b. Ordering Procedures for Other Services Available on Schedule at Fixed Prices for Specifically Defined Services or Tasks. Orders placed pursuant to a Multiple Award Schedule (MAS), using the procedures in FAR 8.404, are considered to be issued pursuant to full and open competition. Therefore, when placing orders |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
under Federal Supply Schedules, ordering offices need not
seek further competition, synopsize the requirement, make a separate determination
of fair and reasonable pricing, or consider small business set-asides in
accordance with Subpart 19.5. GSA has already determined the prices of items
under Schedule contracts to be fair and reasonable. By placing an order
against a Schedule using the procedures outlined below, the ordering office
has concluded that the order represents the best value and results in the
lowest overall cost alternative (considering price, special features, administrative
costs, etc.) to meet the Government's needs. (1) Orders placed at or below the micro-purchase threshold. Ordering offices can place orders at or below the micro-purchase threshold with any Federal Supply Schedule Contractor. (2) Orders exceeding the micro-purchase threshold but not exceeding the maximum order threshold. Orders should be placed with the Schedule Contractor that can provide the supply or service that represents the best value. Before placing an order, ordering offices should consider reasonably available information about the service offered under MAS contracts by using the "GSA Advantage!" online shopping service, or by reviewing the catalogs/price lists of at least three Schedule Contractors and selecting the delivery and other options available under the Schedule that meet the agency's needs. In selecting the service representing the best value, the ordering office may consider (i) special features of the service that are required in effective program performance and that are not provided by a comparable service, and (ii) past performance. (3) Orders exceeding the maximum order threshold. Each Schedule contract has an established maximum order threshold. This threshold represents the point where it is advantageous for the ordering office to seek a price reduction. In addition to following the procedures in paragraph b, above, and before placing an order that exceeds the maximum order threshold, ordering offices shall-- (A) Review additional Schedule Contractors' catalogs/price lists or use the "GSA Advantage!" online shopping service. (B) Based upon the initial evaluation, generally seek price reductions from the Schedule Contractor(s) appearing to provide the best value (considering price and other factors). (C) 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. If further price reductions are
not offered, an order may still be placed, if the ordering office determines
that it is appropriate. NOTE: For orders exceeding the maximum order threshold, EG&G may (i) offer a new lower price for this requirement (the Price Reductions clause is not applicable to orders placed over the maximum order in FAR 52.216-19 Order Limitations); (ii) offer the lowest price available under the contract; or (iii) decline the order (orders must be returned in accordance with FAR 52.216-19). (4) Price reductions. In addition to the circumstances outlined in paragraph (3) above, there may be instances when ordering offices will find it advantageous to request a price reduction. For example, when the ordering office finds a Schedule service elsewhere at a lower price or when a BPA is being established to fill recurring requirements, requesting a price reduction could be advantageous. The potential volume of orders under these agreements, regardless of the size of the individual order, may offer the ordering office the opportunity to secure greater discounts. Schedule Contractors are not required to pass on to all Schedule users a price reduction extended only to an individual agency for a specific order. (5) Small business. For orders exceeding the micro-purchase threshold, ordering offices should give preference to the items of small business concerns when two or more items at the same delivered price will satisfy the requirement. (6) Documentation. Orders should be documented, at a minimum, by identifying EG&G as the source from which the item was purchased, and listing the item purchased and the amount paid. If an agency requirement in excess of the micro-purchase threshold is defined so as to require a particular brand name, product, or feature of a product peculiar to one manufacturer, thereby precluding consideration of a product manufactured by another company, the ordering office shall include an explanation in the file as to why the particular brand name, product, or feature is essential to satisfy the agency's needs. (c) Purchase of Incidental, Non-Schedule Items. For administrative convenience, open market (non-contract) items may be added to a Federal Supply Schedule BPA or an individual order, |

|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
provided the items are clearly labeled as such on the order,
all applicable regulations have been followed, and price reasonableness
has been determined by the ordering activity for the open market (non?contract)
items.

Physical Property Management Procurement Services Production Readiness Assessments Program Impact Assessments Program Management Programmatic Studies Real Property Management Records Management Risk Management Site Services Support Technology Assessment Test and Evaluation Warehouse Management ENVIRONMENTAL ADVISORY SERVICES EG&G provides the corporate experience, expertise, and credentials to support Federal agency needs for a full range of EAS. We have worked in partnership with Federal agencies for more than 50 years and have been involved with professionals who understand the regulatory issues and laws and have proven experience and know-how in developing effective solutions and approaches to the challenges you face. Federal agencies are subject to a myriad of environmental laws and regulations that affect the current operations as well as proposed new actions needed to carry out mission activities. In addition to current and proposed operations, Government agencies are also responsible for past activities that have resulted in environmental contamination or risk of adverse impact to the natural environment, socioeconomic and cultural resources, and public health and safety. Over the past decade, the number and complexity of environmental laws at the Federal, State, and local levels has grown considerably, and compliance has become ever more demanding The following are among the many environmental laws affecting Federal agencies:
Clean Air Act (CAA) |
River and Harbor Act Community Right to Know Act Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Community Environmental Response Facilitation Act (CERFA) National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Archaeological/Historic Preservation Act Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) Endangered Species Act (ESA) Pollution Prevention Act (PPA) Wild and Scenic Rivers Act Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) Coastal Zone Management Act In addition to the above, there are several Executive Orders (EOs), promulgated regulations, policies, and implementing guidance documents pertaining to environmental justice, wetlands, historic preservation, farmland protection, cultural resources, floodplains, and environmental impact analysis procedures. Not only is compliance with environmental laws a complex task, it is serious business. The Federal Facilities Compliance Act of 1992 established the right of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the States to enforce certain Federal, State, and local environmental laws, regulations, ordinances, and directives on Federal agencies. That act, along with various EOs and judicial decisions, allows civil and criminal action to be taken against Federal managers should noncompliance be proven. Adding to the challenges that Federal agencies face are increased pressures from all fronts to ensure that decisions are cost effective and timely, make use of best available technology, and address a wide range of public and stakeholder interests and concerns, while meeting mission requirements. To properly address the multitude of issues and regulations that affect Government decisions in the environmental arena, Federal agencies need expertise across a broad spectrum of scientific, technical, legal, and management disciplines. EG&G provides that expertise and a proven track record of outstanding performance. We offer reliable, competent, and experienced support that can |
