PM, project engineers, OE Safety Specialist, and other members of the OE project team may be
assigned contract surveillance duties and should become familiar with the provisions and terms
of the cost-reimbursable contract.
(b) Other cost-reimbursable contracts (e.g., Cost-Plus-Incentive-Fee and Cost-Plus-Award-
Fee) may also be used for EE/CA and OE removal action contracts.
d. Contracting for EE/CAs.
(1) Requirements for EE/CA contracts can be obtained from the OE MCX but generally
include the following items: engineering and design; geophysical mapping; sampling; risk
assessment; cost analyses; report preparation; public meeting support; UXO personnel
qualifications; and OE removal procedures. The UXO related portions of the RFP for OE
contracts (i.e., SOW, DIDs, and Contract Data Requirements Lists [CDRL]) will be submitted to
the OE MCX for review prior to solicitation.
(2) A-E contracts are generally utilized for EE/CAs.
e. Contracting for OE Removal Actions.
(1) Contracts for OE removal actions will include OE specific requirements such as UXO
personnel qualifications and OE removal procedures. Requirements can be obtained from the
OE MCX.
(2) OE removal actions should be executed through a site-specific stand-alone contract or a
task order to an existing OE Design Center Indefinite Delivery Order (IDO) contract. When an
OE Design Center awards a stand-alone contract, full contracting authority may be transferred to
the district. When awarding a task order to an established OE Design Center IDO contract, the
district must agree to management controls and reporting mechanisms established by the OE
Design Center CO/COR.
(3) When a removal action is transferred to a district, the OE project team will determine
whether the OE Design Center or the district will award the contract. The OE MCX must review
and provide comments for safety and technical adequacy on all contracts for OE actions. If the
OE project team does not reach a consensus regarding project execution strategy, the MSC
Commander will determine the contract to be used. The project file will contain full
documentation regarding the decision reached on project execution strategy including actions
taken to address each issue.
f. Contract Solicitation Process. USACE follows normal contracting procedures, as
established in the FAR, Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement, Army Federal
Acquisition Regulation Supplement, and Engineer Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement in
soliciting OE contracts.
