MSRA contractors must be capable of performing 55% of the work package on Navy ship Selected Restricted Availabilities (SRAs) of Frigate Guided Missile (FFG-7) Class size within their own facilities. ABR contractors must primarily be engaged in ship and/or boat/craft repair and meet certain criteria outlined in the document.
The document outlines guidelines for the compensable extension of delivery dates for contractor services related to dry-docking and pierside performance within a federal contract (N50054-24-R-0003). It specifies that in instances necessitating an extension, the contractor's fully burdened daily rates will be applied to negotiate terms for additional workdays. These daily rates encompass all associated costs, ranging from temporary services to project management, and are fixed for extensions up to 24 months post-award. The contractor must demonstrate the compensability of delays through thorough schedule analyses, and the pricing for extensions is governed by predetermined calculations linked to the delivery order’s pricing. The document further distinguishes between compensable, concurrent, and excusable delays, detailing how each affects the contracting outcome. It emphasizes the need for bilateral modifications in acceptable delays, while also noting the government’s rights in case of disputes. This guidance is pivotal for robust contract management and ensures accountability between the government and contractors throughout the project lifecycle.
