OTHER INFORMATION

The PACS contracts are Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity, Time and Material contracts. The PACS Contractors provide professional support services on a task order basis.

Task orders are issued on a Time and Material (T&M) and Firm Fixed Price (FFP) basis. T&M task orders are priced at Not-to-Exceed amounts based on the Contractor's fixed labor rates and the Government's estimate of hours, whereas FFP task orders require the Contractor to provide specific deliverables for an overall fixed price.

All task orders issued are subject to the terms and conditions of the contract.

All Contractors are provided a fair opportunity to be considered for each task order award.

The simplified and streamlined procedures may allow us to issue a task order in approximately three weeks.

Task orders issued under these contracts are awarded in accordance with FAR 16.505. Primarily, PACS task orders are awarded through competition.

Customers may elect to have oral presentations prior to receiving written proposals when making a task order award. Task orders are awarded, when possible, based on initial technical and cost proposal submissions.

All costs associated with the preparation, presentation and/or discussions of the Contractors' task order proposals are the responsibility of the PACS Contractors, at no additional cost to the customer agency.
