For each of the two contracts, cumulative amounts of all delivery orders on each contract, separately, will not exceed $995,000.00 each. 6. Design Within Funding Limitations (a) The A-E shall accomplish design services required under this contract so as to permit the award of contracts using standard Federal Acquisition Regulation procedures for the construction of projects designed at a price that does not exceed the estimated construction contract price established for each Delivery Order issued under this contract. When bids or proposals for the construction contract are received that exceed the estimated price, the A-E shall perform such redesign and other services as are necessary to permit contract award within the funding limitation. These additional services shall be performed at no increase in the Delivery Order price. However, the A-E shall not be required to perform such additional services at no cost to the Government if the unfavorable bids or proposals are the result of conditions beyond its reasonable control. (b) The A-E will promptly advise the Contracting Officer if it finds that the project being designed will exceed or is likely to exceed the funding limitations and it is unable to design a usable project within these limitations. Upon receipt of such information, the Contracting Officer will review the A-E's revised estimate of construction cost. The Government may, if it determines that the estimated construction contract price set forth in this contract is so low that award of a construction contract not in excess of such estimate is improbable, authorize a change in scope or materials as required to reduce the estimated construction cost to an amount within the estimated construction contract price, or the Government may adjust such estimated construction contract price. When bids or proposals are not solicited or are unreasonably delayed, the Government shall prepare an estimate of constructing the design submitted and such estimate shall be used in lieu of bids or proposals to determine compliance with the funding limitation. 7. Responsibility of the Architect-Engineer Contractor (a) The A-E shall be responsible for the professional quality, technical accuracy, and the coordination of all designs, drawings, specifications, and other services furnished by the Contractor under this contract. The A-E shall, without additional compensation, correct or revise any errors or deficiencies in its designs, drawings, specifications, and other services. (b) Neither the Government's review, approval or acceptance of, nor payment for, the services required under this contract shall be construed to operate as a waiver of any rights under this contract or of any cause of action arising out of the performance of this contract, and the A-E shall be and remain liable to the Government in accordance with applicable law for all damages to the Government caused by the A-E's negligent performance of any of the services furnished under this contract. (c) The rights and remedies of the Government provided for under this contract are in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law.
