No, they did not tell me where in the FAR.  They said that the Travel and ODCs couldn't be defined beforehand so they had to be set as a labor-hour clin with a NTE limit.  I've managed several similar contracts and have never seen this.  They said they had to make it a labor-hour and FFP hybrid because there were three CLINs that couldn't be defined with price beforehand and these had to be set this way pursuant to the FAR.  The 3 CLINs are: Travel, ODC and Surge projects.

Like I said, in the past these were all defined within the FFP with a NTE limit.

Yes, this is part of the hybrid contract.  I was just told that you can only use "Labor Hour CLIN" to define cost for travel and ODCs.  My understanding is that this would define those CLINs as a time and materials cost and not on a reimbursable as defined in the FAR.

Greetings,

Can Travel and Other Direct Costs CLINs be awarded on a labor hour basis?

Thanks.

Thank you all for your responses.

Can you have a hybrid contract that is it is titled as a FIRM FIXED PRICE but some of the CLINS are on labor hours?  Kindly advise where I can find information in the FAR regarding this topic.
