Common use of ANCILLARY SUPPORT Clause in Contracts

ANCILLARY SUPPORT. C.3.1 IT services-based solutions may include work that, on its own, might not be considered IT. That work is characterized as “Ancillary Support.” Ancillary Support can be structured in Orders consistent with the overall Order type, or as part of a hybrid Order type approach, consistent with the Pricing section. OCOs clearly express the desired Order type(s) for Ancillary Support in TORs and resulting Orders. C.3.2 Ancillary Support can be categorized as Ancillary Services and Ancillary Equipment, as shown below: C.3.2.1 Ancillary Services (IT project planning/management; clerical support; training; construction, alteration, and repair; telecommunications/wireless transport; additional labor categories; etc.) must be integral and necessary for the IT services-based solution. C.3.2.2 Ancillary Equipment (hardware, software, software licenses, racks, mounts, etc.) may be purchased if it is integral and necessary for the IT services-based solution. C.3.3 IT Services must remain the principal purpose of the Order and the ancillary support must be integral and necessary for the IT services-based solution. The Contractor must not accept or perform work for an Order having the principle purpose of: (1) Ancillary Support (2) Personal services as defined in FAR Subpart 2.101(b) (3) A requirement that primarily uses employees not employed in a bona fide executive, administrative, or professional capacity as defined in 29 CFR Part 541 and/or employees primarily employed as labor or mechanics as defined in FAR subpart 22.401.
