Abstract
The Defense Supply Service - Washington, awarded contract MDA9O3-88-D-0018 to BDM International, Inc. (BDM) on July 1,1988, to provide advisory and assistance services to the Army Operational Test and Evaluation Command (OPTEC). Services included technical support for operational testing and continuous comprehensive evaluation of major Defense acquisition programs and nonmajor weapon systems being procured by the Army. BDM also supported OPTEC in its mission to understand, resource, monitor, test, evaluate, and report on various systems in designated functional areas. The contract was a fixed-rate/indefinite quantity-type contract that was activated by the issuance of delivery orders to acquire effort, by labor hour, for performance of OPTEC requirements. The total period of performance was 5 years with a minimum contract amount of $250,000 and a maximum contract amount of $25 million, or about $5 million per year. For each year of the contract, three distinct sets of fully burdened labor rates were negotiated for specific labor categories (labor categories also include senior, mid, and junior level rates). The three sets of labor rates were: * on-site subcontractor (Government site), * off-site subcontractor (contractor facility), and * off-site prime (contractor facility).
