DiPSS II IDIQ

Pricing Scenarios and Instructions
Instructions to Offerors:
Pricing under this solicitation shall follow a two-tier structure: Offerors shall first establish a Standard Baseline Price for each capability area and labor category, representing normalized costs in a permissive, well-resourced diplomatic environment. Offerors shall then apply Location-Specific Price Adjustments for each of the three (3) location scenarios described below, building up from the baseline to reflect the unique operational, security, logistical, and regulatory conditions of each location. All pricing shall be submitted as fully loaded, Not-toExceed (NTE) Firm Fixed Price (FFP) hourly labor rates and unit prices. Rates shall include all direct and indirect costs, overhead, general and administrative expenses, profit/fee, salaries, Post Differential, Danger Pay (where applicable), Defense Base Act (DBA) insurance, travel, accommodation, and equipment procurement. Offerors shall not exceed awarded IDIQ pricing when submitting pricing for competitively competed task orders.
