(expedited reply is required), a technical proposal and a cost proposal to

(b) UNPRICED JOB ORDERS
(1) In an emergency where it is imperative that the designated task be
commenced prior to the execution of a priced job order, the following procedures
will apply. The procedures in Section C.3 (a) in paragraphs (1) (2) and (3) will
be followed for initiating the job order. Then:
(i) After receipt and review of the Contractor's proposal, the
Contracting officer may issue an unpriced job order stating a monetary ceiling
amount for the Job Order and containing a NOT-TO-EXCEED funding limitation
pending documentation of the Job Order. This Job Order will be on a Form DD1155
"Order for supplies or Services" and will contain a limitation of Government
Liability clause as stated in Section G, Paragraph G.5. The Contractor is
required to sign the Job Order (DD1155) as acceptance of the ceiling priced job
order or provide a letter containing the proposed ceiling price and stating
agreement to accepting a job order on this basis. In exceptional cases, where
award must be made prior to receipt of a qualifying technical proposal, the
Government and the Contractor shall negotiate a maximum ceiling price which must
be confirmed in writing. Use of this procedure will limit the Contractor
expenditures to 50% of the proposed Ceiling price until a qualifying proposal is
received or negotiations have been completed. In no event shall an entire job
order be priced retroactively.
(ii) The initial cost proposal you submit to satisfy the Government's
requirement may be the amount specified for the NOT-TO-EXCEED ceiling amount of
an unpriced job order. This establishment of a not-to-exceed price ceiling is in
accordance with DFARS 217.7404-2. To comply with this, your proposal submitted
in response to the Government's request should have a validity period that
allows time for definitization of the job order. This time period could extend
as long as six months depending on the length and complexity of the audit and
other issues.
(2) When an unpriced job order is issued on a DD1155, the job order will
contain wording referencing the above BOA provision as well as a limitation on
the amount of funds that may be expended prior to definitization. The unpriced
job order may incorporate your cost proposal by reference.
(3) When definitizing the unpriced job order, the ceiling amount will be
subject to a downward negotiation only.
(4) Per the DFAR: Allowable Profit. The head of an agency or a designee
shall ensure that the profit allowed on a UCA, for which the final price is
negotiated after a substantial portion of the performance required is completed,
reflects:
(i) any reduced cost risk of the contractor with respect to costs
incurred during the performance of the contract before the final price is
negotiated; and
(ii) the reduced cost risk of the contractor with respect to costs
incurred during performance of the remaining portion of the contract.
(5) The Contractor shall submit a proposal not later than ons month after
the date of the ceiling priced job order award. Negotiations, per the FAR,
shall be completed not later than six months after the date of award of the
ceiling priced job order. Within these parameters, the Contracting Officer
shall state in the Job Order the actual definitization schedule in accordance
with FAR 52.216-25 Contract Definitization.

acceleration of the average hourly rate of effort that will result in the
utilization of the total man-hours set forth in each individual job order prior

fee and the transaction formalized by Supplemental Agreement to that job order.
