Consupport Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 We have an IDIQ contract with proposed rates for Base period, Option1 with escalation, and Option2 with escalation. The first Task Order issued uses the Base Period rates and it is for less than a year. The second Task Order will be for more than a year, and it will be issued shortly before Base Period is up. What rates should be used to estimate the price of second task order, Base Period rates or Option1 rates? And should those rates prevail for the entire life of the second Task Order even if it's more than a year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Vern Edwards Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 The answers depend entirely on what the contract says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
here_2_help Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 You know, I had an answer and was well into typing it. Then I thought of another way of looking at it and came up with an equally valid answer. Then I realized I couldn't answer the question because ... as Vern succintly says, it depends. It depends on the contract language. H2H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retreadfed Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 Consupport, you mentioned that a task order would be issued. A quick question, is the contract subject to the Service Contract Act? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Consupport Posted June 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 We are not subject to the Service Contract Act. I think you all already answer my question. I read the contract several times and the sentence below is all what I found regarding pricing: "Buyer can purchase from the Subcontractor, the listed services in the SOW at the prices for the corresponding Option Period. Buyer shall pay the Subcontractor in accordance with the rate schedule." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
