  1. Does anyone have a resouce or know where one could verify what type of funding should be used to fund whatever work is being asked? I have some task orders that literally every type of appropriation known on a single task order. But, how can we verify that dumping of monies is not happening and we are performing our due diligence? Any ideas? Thank you
  2. Ours does, in the end it will go 6 years 1 month, we are special I guess....
  3. An interesting point came up the other day. I am a member of a contracting agency, we service other commands. If one of those commands wished to by equipment for one of their customers they would have to have the using command purchase the equipment, correct? We are talking about 40/50 Million in equipment, not some small purchase. I suggested they have the using agency acquire whatever equipment necessary on their own from CHESS and we would develop a contract to do the installation. However, the buying we could not do? Am I right in my assessment, if so can anyone point me to regulatory guidance to support my position? Thank you in advance Steve
  4. Well I may have explained it poorly the contract option has been exercised. Then task orders are ordered against the contract, we are just talking about not ordering a piece of the contract anymore. I think we will be alright because we have met the garunteed min, and the contract is still in place we are just not ordering as much as we did in the past. Similair to a de-scoping of work...by letting the existing task order with that particulare work expire... Thank you...
  5. Well we still need the services, but we are going to do the work in-house by government folks, will that be a problem?
  6. I have a services contract that has three seperate task orders, one for each of the signatory organizations. Two of the option year task orders have been exercised for option year 4, the next task order is due to be exercised in Dec, I have met the garunteed minimum. Is there any risk to the government if we do not exercise the 4th option year in the third task order? I have looked through GAO and other areas but cannot find anything that realy fits my needs, any assistance would be appreciated. Steve
  7. Yes, it was a great help, in Salary.com parlance a supply technician at this level is called a "Stroekeeper"... Thank you again....
  8. I am looking to do a wage determination for a Supply clerk assitant type employee. I cannot find any such job discription on Salary.com of GSA schedules, any ideas or data mining suggestions? Or possibly I am just calling the job discription incorrectly, anyone know what a civilian counterpart is designated? Thank you in advance Steve...
  9. All, as a caveat, I am on the other side, I am a contract specialist for the government. I have the current contractor working on a government task order for engineering services under a ID/IQ. The task order is up for recompete. The twist comes when the contractor has gathered data, (not a specified deliverable), that was requested after the fact by the government, (but never identified in writing). Now the contractor says they have all the rights to the data, which gives them a definite advantage for future efforts. However, since the data was collected through the use of this task order, on government time, money, and resources, does not the government own this data regardless of whether it was a spelled-out deliverable? Thank you for any help?Steve
  10. Does anyone know where I can find a PADDS Regulation Reference [crosswalk] to Clauses. I am new to PADDS and the Clause guide, but when I pull up clauses it sorts them [not by clause order] but by regulation reference I.D.. Is there a document out there? Thank you for any help... Steve Murphy
  11. Agreed, my CO was just looking for some regulatory backup to her decision to allow contractors to re-staff substituting experience for education. As far as I am concerned as long as the decision is reasonable let them do it; we the government should get out of the business of reading and approving resumes. Ultimately, the contractor is responsible for staffing the contract with qualified personnel? Steve
  12. What about the myth that if you enter a five year ID/IQ contract as a small business than you keep that status until after the contract is over. Most people don?t realize the Clause 52.219-28 where you have to update your status if it changes, possibly disrupting the new interpretation of the ?rule of two?, if at least two of your contractors have Small Business status. We are in this situation now? Any new info on policy decisions for the rule of two? Steve
  13. Does anyone know of precedence where contractors can do as the General Schedule and substitute education for experience? If so does anyone have a reference for either OPM regs or the 5CFR? Steve
