This document is the Price Schedule for non-personal grounds maintenance and snow removal services at the Rome Research Site (RRS) and the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS). The scope of work requires the contractor to provide all necessary supervision, personnel, equipment, transportation, and materials to execute these services. The contract structure is divided into a base year, four distinct option years, and a six-month extension of services, spanning from November 1, 2026, through April 30, 2032. Each full contract year contains identical Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs 0001–4025) covering recurring maintenance tasks, including improved grounds maintenance, debris policing, leaf removal, shrub and tree pruning, lawn aeration, weed control, tree and stump removal, snow and ice removal, and spring cleanup. While the full years account for comprehensive warm- and cold-season landscaping tasks, the final six-month extension period (running from November 1, 2031, to April 30, 2032) focuses exclusively on cold-weather operations. This extension includes CLINs for snow and ice removal, spring cleanup, and potential additional snow removal services. Across all periods, CLINs are structured with specific quantities and units of measure—such as months, hours, square feet, and individual occurrences—to allow bidders to provide unit prices and total calculated amounts.
