MAINTENANCE SERVICES FOR GATES, CONTROLLERS, MOTORIZED TRAFFIC BARRIERS AT DLA DISTRIBUTION NORFOLK VA - Amendment 0001

This contract was awarded competitively. It is a hybrid Firm-Fixed-Price and Time & Materials contract for Preventative Maintenance and Corrective Maintenance Services on gates, gate controllers, motorized traffic barriers, hydraulic arms, and fences at DLA Distribution Norfolk VA. CLINS associated with Corrective Maintenance Services are Time & Material CLINS because there is no accurate way to predict failure of the gates, gate controllers, motorized traffic barriers, hydraulic arms, and fences included in this acquisition or the labor hours and parts necessary to correct a failure. Corrective maintenance services vary significantly based upon the age, wear, quality, condition, and use of the equipment. The types, frequency, and severity of repairs are unpredictable and therefore cannot be identified accurately enough for the Government to establish Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) for these services.
