SECTION C - STATEMENT OF WORK INTRODUCTION This Statement of Work sets forth the contract performance requirements for the operation and management of a Job Corps center. C.1 GENERAL •A. Background Job Corps is a national residential training and employment program administered by the U.S. Department of Labor to address the multiple barriers to employment faced by disadvantaged youth throughout the United States. Job Corps was originally established by the Economic Opportunity Act of 1964; current authorization for the program is Title I, Subtitle C, of the Workforce Investment Act of 1998. Job Corps provides comprehensive career development services to students including academic, career technical, career success and independent living skills, career readiness training, and support services. The unique combination of services provided in Job Corps is intended to prepare youth to obtain and hold gainful employment, pursue further education or training, or satisfy entrance requirements for careers in the Armed Forces. •B. Objective The contractor shall provide material, services, and all necessary personnel to operate a Job Corps center (Center). The contractor shall provide enrolled youth, meeting Job Corps' eligibility or admission requirements, with a comprehensive range of career development services leading to employment and long-term attachment to the workforce. The contractor shall: •1. Provide academic, career technical, career success, employability, and independent living skills training. •2. Provide basic health care, counseling, and other support services as required by the PRH. •3. Conduct program operations in a setting that is clean, well maintained, and safe. •4. Assist youth in obtaining employment, additional education or training, or entry into the Armed Forces. •5. Provide support that prepares graduates to maintain long-term attachment to the labor market or further educational opportunities. •6. Integrate center operations with the local workforce development systems, employers, the business community, and community-based organizations. The general scope of work includes the participation of the contractor in demonstration projects initiated by the U.S. Department of Labor. An equitable adjustment shall be made for those projects determined to be an increase in work within the general scope of the contract via a supplemental agreement to the contract negotiated with the contractor. All disputes arising under these actions are subject to the disputes clause. •C. Center Design The center shall operate at a planned, average on-board strength as noted below: Category Number Residential Male Students 148 Residential Female Students 89 Subtotal Residential Students 237 Nonresidential Male Students 4 Nonresidential Female Students 23 Subtotal Nonresidential Students 27 Total Planned Average On-Board Strength 264 The contractor shall be continually prepared to receive a sufficient number of students to maintain the average on-board strength capacity noted above and a surge capacity of 103 percent. Performance up to 103 percent of capacity shall be performed within the estimated cost of this contract. Performance below 100% for a prolonged period may result in a reduction in the estimated total average on-board strength. Accordingly, the Government reserves the right to reduce the resulting estimated cost of this contract. The contractor shall not, at any point during each Program Year, which is defined as beginning in July of each year and ending in June of the following year, exceed an average of 103% of the OBS specified above. The contractor cannot request students or otherwise indicate availability to accept students to the extent fulfilling that request would put the center over the Program Year average OBS of 103%. All costs incurred resulting from any enrollments which cause the contractor's OBS to exceed the Program Year average of 103%, shall be deemed unallowable. In addition, the Department reserves the right to pursue legal action or otherwise seek relief against any contractors exceeding 103% Program Year average. Enrollment below 95% of the OBS capacity identified above for a continuous six month period may result in a reduction in the contract's OBS capacity. In the event that the Government reduces the OBS capacity due to a prolonged period of performance below 95% of the OBS capacity identified above, the contractor will not be able to seek recovery for costs associated with the decrease in the OBS. In the event that nonresidential students are enrolled, they shall be provided the following services, in addition to the core services available to all students: •1. Transportation to and from the Center for training days and for limited recreational activities. •2. A locker, lock, and nonresidential student lounge. •3. Lunch on all training days. •4. Breakfast on all training days. •5. Supper and weekend meals if the student wishes to remain on center. Center transportation is not mandatory when students stay for supper and weekend meals. •6.

The technical performance incentive fee shall range from 0% to 2.4% of total direct and indirect costs, excluding fee, CRA (CLIN 5001), equipment (CLIN 5002), CTST (CLIN 5003), and demonstration projects (5004). Annually, the Employment & Training Administration, Office of Job Corps, will establish and publish the performance range for the upcoming Program Year. Performance ranges may fluctuate from year to year based on performance history for the preceding year. To ensure that eventual costs to the Government do not exceed budget availability, the performance range will be set so that there is a balanced distribution between higher and lower performers. The performance range will identify maximum and minimum incentive fee payment levels as follows: Maximum: level at which the contractor receives the maximum available incentive fee payment (2.4%) Minimum: level below which the contractor receives no incentive fee payment (0%) Incremental incentive fee payment levels will be established for each level of OMS performance (to one decimal point) within each Program Year's established performance range; i.e., amounts will be established incrementally for 90.0%, 90.1%, 90.2%, etc. The contractor's performance and the amount of technical performance incentive fee earned shall be determined annually after the close of the contract year, based on achievement of Program Year goals within the Office of Job Corps' Outcome Measurement System. Each contractor's performance will be evaluated based on the portion of the contract year that occurred during the Program Year for which the performance range was in effect. In order to motivate and reward excellence in performance, those contractors whose performance exceeds the top of the National Performance Range will be eligible to earn a technical performance excellence bonus. The bonus will be awarded for performance above the top of the National Performance Range The amount of the performance excellence bonus pool for the contract will be equal to 10% of the maximum total of the minimum cost incentive fee (2.0%) + technical performance incentive fee (2.4%). The bonus pool will be distributed in equal incremental amounts throughout the bonus range. Under the resultant terms of this contract, the minimum cost incentive fee (described below), the technical performance incentive fee, and the maximum technical performance excellence bonus for Center Operations shall be as follows: Center Operations: Contract Year Minimum Cost Incentive Fee (2.0%) Minimum Technical Performance Incentive Fee (0%) Average Technical Performance Incentive Fee (1.2%) Maximum Performance Incentive Fee (2.4%) Maximum Technical Performance Excellence Bonus (.44%) 1 2 3 4 5 If applicable under this RFP and the resultant contract, the technical performance incentive fees for OA and CTS shall be as follows: Outreach/Admissions (OA): Contract Year Minimum Cost Incentive Fee (2.0%) Minimum Technical Performance Incentive Fee (0%) Average Technical Performance Incentive Fee (1.2%) Maximum Technical Performance Incentive Fee (2.4%) Maximum Technical Performance Excellence Bonus (.44%) 1 2 3 4 5 Career Transition Services (CTS): Contract Year Minimum Cost Incentive Fee (2.0%) Minimum Technical Performance Incentive Fee (0%) Average Technical Performance Incentive Fee (1.2%) Maximum Technical Performance Incentive Fee (2.4%) Maximum Technical Performance Excellence Bonus (.44%) 1 2 3 4 5 G.3.2: Cost Incentive Fee: The contractor shall also perform under the parameters of a cost incentive fee structure. Under the incentive fee structure, the contractor shall have the opportunity to earn a cost incentive fee, based upon the relationship between the contractor's actual costs versus its target cost for each contract year. The cost incentive fee shall range from 2.0% to 3.6% of total direct and indirect costs, excluding CRA (CLIN 5001), equipment (CLIN 5002), CTST (CLIN 5003), and demonstration projects (5004). However, the contractor's minimum cost incentive fee of 2% may be unilaterally reduced to 0% by the Contracting Officer if the contractor's actual costs exceed the target cost by greater than 10%. The following shall form the basis of the contractor's cost incentive structure: Term Definition of Term Center Operations OA CTS Target Cost Contractor's current contract year's estimated operations cost (i.e., that contract year's approved operations budget as shown on form 2181 within FMS), excluding fees, CRA (CLIN 5001), equipment (CLIN 5002), CTST (CLIN 5003), and demonstration projects (5004).

Please note that the minimum cost incentive fee operates in the same way as a fixed fee and therefore, the dollar amount of the minimum fee does not increase as the contractor's costs increase, unless approved by the Contracting Officer. Contractor's minimum cost incentive fee of 2% may be unilaterally reduced to 0% by the Contracting Officer if the contractor's actual costs exceed the target cost by greater than 10%.

Fee Adjustment Formula - used to calculate Cost Incentive Fee Earned Cost Sharing Ratio for cost overruns = 20% Government / 80% Contractor Benefit Ratio for cost underruns = 80% Government / 20% Contractor Calculation of the Final Cost Incentive Fee earned (see Note 2) Final Cost Incentive Fee = Target Cost Incentive Fee + /- (Cost Underrun or Cost Overrun variance * Contractor Share) (see Note 2) Base Year One: Base Year Two: Option Year One: Option Year Two: Option Year Three: Base Year One: Base Year Two: Option Year One: Option Year Two: Option Year Three: Base Year One: Base Year Two: Option Year One: Option Year Two: Option Year Three: Note 1 : In accordance with cost reporting requirements as found in Appendices 502 and 503 of the PRH. Note 2: The Final Cost Incentive Fee earned will not be less than 2.0% of total direct and indirect costs (minimum cost incentive fee) and not more than 3.6% of total direct and indirect costs (maximum cost incentive fee). Contractor's minimum cost incentive fee of 2% may be unilaterally reduced to 0% by the Contracting Officer if the contractor's Actual costs exceed the Target cost by greater than 10%. Examples of Cost Incentive Scenarios: FACTS: A contractor is awarded a contract with an estimated cost of $10,000,000 for operations for Base Year One, excluding fees. The minimum cost incentive fee that the contractor will earn for operations under this contract for operations is $200,000. The maximum cost incentive fee that the contractor could earn for operations is $360,000. The target cost incentive fee that the contractor could earn for operations is $280,000. Scenario #1 : If the actual costs for center operations during the base period were $10,100,000, then the contractor would be responsible for absorbing 80% of that $100,000 overrun or $80,000. The Government would share in 20% or $20,000 of the overrun. Therefore, the contractor would earn a total cost incentive fee of $200,000, which is calculated as follows: $280,000 target cost less $80,000 cost overrun shared by operator equals net cost incentive fee of $200,000. Scenario #2 : If the actual costs for center operations during the base period were $9,900,000, then the contractor would benefit in 20% of the $100,000 underrun or $20,000. The Government would benefit 80% or $80,000 as a result of the underrun or cost savings. Therefore, the contractor would earn a total cost incentive fee of $300,000, which is calculated as follows: $280,000 target cost plus $20,000 cost savings shared by operator equals net cost incentive fee of $300,000. Scenario #3 : If the actual costs for center operations during the base period were $9,000,000, then the total underrun would be $1,000,000. Even though 20% of $1,000,000 is $200,000, the contractor would only benefit in $80,000 of the $200,000, because the maximum cost incentive fee the contractor can earn is $360,000, which is calculated as follows: $280,000 target cost plus maximum possible $80,000 cost savings shared by operator equals net cost incentive fee of $360,000. Scenario #4 : If the actual costs for center operations during the base period were $11,000,000, then the total overrun would be $1,000,000. Even though 80% of $1,000,000 is $800,000, the contractor would only share (or be responsible for absorbing) $80,000 of the $1,000,000 cost overrun, because the minimum cost incentive fee the contractor can earn is $200,000, so long as the contractor's actual costs do not exceed the target cost by greater than 10%. The cost incentive fee is calculated as follows: $280,000 target fee less $80,000 maximum possible cost overrun shared by operator equals net cost incentive fee of $200,000. Scenario #5 : If the actual costs for center operations during the base period were exactly $10,000,000, then the total cost incentive that the contractor would earn for the base period under operation is $280,000. G.3.3 Billing and Payment of Fees: Cost Incentive Fee: The contractor will be permitted to invoice the 2.0% minimum cost incentive fee (fixed fee) on a twice a monthly basis, to be included in the invoice described in Section G.5, Invoice Requirements. On its invoice, the contractor would invoice the total minimum cost incentive fee in equal increments. For example, if the estimated cost for operations during base year 1 (a 12-month period of performance) is $12,000,000, then 2% of $12,000,000 is $240,000, and the contractor could include on each invoice 1/24th of $240,000 or $10,000. Upon completion of the contract year, the Contracting Officer will determine the amount of cost incentive fee earned by the contractor, using the cost incentive fee calculation identified in the table above. If additional cost incentive fee is earned, above the minimum 2.0% which the contractor has already billed, the Contracting Officer will issue a unilateral contract modification to increase the estimated cost and funding on the contract's cost incentive fee line. Upon receipt of the modification, the contractor would include the additional cost incentive fee earned on the next monthly invoice. If there is no additional fee earned, the Contracting Office will advise the contractor accordingly. As stated above, the contractor's minimum cost incentive fee of 2% may be unilaterally reduced to 0% by the Contracting Officer if the contractor's actual costs exceed the target cost by greater than 10%. If the contractor's cost incentive fee is reduced to 0%, the contractor shall be required to reimburse the Government for all cost incentive fee that was invoiced during the course of contract performance. This determination will be made by the Contracting Officer, upon completion of each contract year. Technical Performance Incentive Fee: Upon completion of the contract year, the Contracting Officer will utilize the Office of Job Corps' Outcome Measurement System (OMS) data to evaluate the contractor's overall technical performance, based on achievement of Program Years' goals, and will determine the level of technical performance incentive fee earned by the contractor. The Contracting Officer will then issue a bi-lateral contract modification to increase the estimated cost and funding on the contract's technical performance incentive fee line if incentive fee is earned. Upon receipt of the modification, the contractor would include the technical performance incentive fee earned on the next monthly invoice. Performance Excellence Bonuses will be awarded at the end of the contract year as well. Please note that the contractor shall not invoice for any technical performance incentive fee or Performance Excellence Bonuses until the bi-lateral modification has been awarded. If there is no additional fee earned, the Contracting Office will advise the contractor accordingly. G.4 INDIRECT COSTS Indirect cost rates under this contract at the time of award are as follows: Indirect Cost Base of Allocation Rate for each Contract Year 1 2 3 4 5 G&A In accordance with contractor's negotiated and approved Indirect Cost Rate Agreement, also excluding CRA, equipment, and CTST. Overhead Applicable Not Applicable Total Direct Salaries and Wages (including/excluding fringe benefits) Indirect Ceiling Rates or Ceiling Amounts - The Contracting Officer will impose the contractor's general & administrative cost limitation (G&A ceiling) regarding the contract based on the documentation received. Please note that these "ceilings" do not exclude your organization from the responsibility of annually submitting an indirect cost rate proposal to the contractor's Cognizant Agency of the Federal Government to establish the final, approved indirect cost rate(s). These terms and conditions in the cost principles below are applicable to all awardees receiving funds from multiple sources. Organizations receiving funds from only one source do not need an indirect cost rate (ICR) approved. The contractor's G&A ceiling rate is ___%. You are governed by one of the categories of cost principles listed below. Please comply with your cost principles as appropriate to your organization: •(1) Private-for-Profit organizations - Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subparts 31 and 42. •(2) State and local governments and Indian Tribal governments - OMB Circular A-87. •(3) Educational Institutions - OMB Circulars A-21 and FAR 42.705-3. •(4) Nonprofit organizations - OMB Circular A-122. In order to avoid major audit problems, disallowed costs, and to receive timely reimbursement of indirect costs, contractors should take those necessary steps to comply with the clause 52.242-4, Certification of Final Indirect Costs, as well as the critical timeframes for submission of indirect cost proposals. Note that the contractor must obtain approval from the Contracting Officer to reallocate planned expenses from direct cost budget line items to the indirect cost budget line item to accommodate higher approved indirect cost rates Support for Indirect Cost Claims A copy of the indirect cost rate negotiation agreement will be requested to verify the rate information (rate approved, type of indirect cost rate(s) approved, and allocation base) received from the Federal cognizant agency (Federal agency providing the preponderance of direct federal funds to the organization). For billing purposes, indirect costs shall be calculated using the approved provisional rate, until a final rate is established and retroactively applied. In the absence of an approved provisional rate, a negotiated/proposed rate shall be used. Temporary Billing Rate (TBR) - For those contractors that do not have a federally approved indirect cost rate, the Contracting Officer may negotiates a (TBR) to allow initial indirect cost claims for the first 90 days of award. During these 90 days, the offeror m ust submit an acceptable indirect cost proposal to your Federal cognizant agency to obtain a provisional indirect rate. Failure on your part to submit an indirect cost proposal within this 90 day period means that you shall not receive further reimbursement for your billing rate. Also, action may be taken to recoup all indirect costs already paid to you. It is important to point out that all organizations are to submit a final indirect cost proposal to its Federal Cognizant agency annually and within 180 days after the end of the organization's fiscal year. If DOL is your Federal cognizant agency, proposals shall be sent to: Chief, Division of Cost Determination (DCD) U.S. Department of Labor, OASAM 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W., Room S-1510 Washington, D.C. 20210 Tel.

As used in this clause: "Executive" means officers, managing partners, or any other employees in management positions. "First-tier subcontract" means a subcontract awarded directly by the Contractor for the purpose of acquiring supplies or services (including construction) for performance of a prime contract. It does not include the Contractor's supplier agreements with vendors, such as long-term arrangements for materials or supplies that benefit multiple contracts and/or the costs of which are normally applied to a Contractor's general and administrative expenses or indirect costs. "Months of award" means the month in which a contract is signed by the Contracting Officer or the month in which a first-tier subcontract is signed by the Contractor. "Total compensation" means the cash and noncash dollar value earned by the executive during the Contractor's preceding fiscal year and includes the following (for more information see 17 CFR 229.402(c) (2)): (1) Salary and bonus. (2) Awards of stock, stock options, and stock appreciation rights. Use the dollar amount recognized for financial statement reporting purposes with respect to the fiscal year in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board's Accounting Standards Codification (FASB ASC) 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation. (3) Earnings for services under non-equity incentive plans. This does not include group life, health, hospitalization or medical reimbursement plans that do not discriminate in favor of executives, and are available generally to all salaried employees. (4) Change in pension value. This is the change in present value of defined benefit and actuarial pension plans. (5) Above-market earnings on deferred compensation which is not tax-qualified. (6) Other compensation, if the aggregate value of all such other compensation ( e.g., severance, termination payments, value of life insurance paid on behalf of the employee, perquisites or property) for the executive exceeds $10,000. (b) Section 2(d) (2) of the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006 (Pub. L. 109-282), as amended by section 6202 of the Government Funding Transparency Act of 2008 (Pub. L. 110-252), requires the Contractor to report information on subcontract awards. The law requires all reported information be made public; therefore, the Contractor is responsible for notifying its subcontractors that the required information will be made public. (c) Nothing in this clause requires the disclosure of classified information (d)(1) Executive compensation of the prime contractor. As a part of its annual registration requirement in the System for Award Management (SAM) database (FAR provision 52.204-7 ), the Contractor shall report the names and total compensation of each of the five most highly compensated executives for its preceding completed fiscal year, if- (i) In the Contractor's preceding fiscal year, the Contractor received- (A) 80 percent or more of its annual gross revenues from Federal contracts (and subcontracts), loans, grants (and subgrants), cooperative agreements, and other forms of Federal financial assistance; and (B) $25,000,000 or more in annual gross revenues from Federal contracts (and subcontracts), loans, grants (and subgrants), cooperative agreements, and other forms of Federal financial assistance; and (ii) The public does not have access to information about the compensation of the executives through periodic reports filed under section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ( 15 U.S.C. 78m(a), 78o(d) ) or section 6104 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. (To determine if the public has access to the compensation information, see the U.S. Security and Exchange Commission total compensation filings at http://www.sec.gov/answers/execomp.htm.) (2) First-tier subcontract information. Unless otherwise directed by the contracting officer, or as provided in paragraph (h) of this clause, by the end of the month following the month of award of a first-tier subcontract with a value of $25,000 or more, the Contractor shall report the following information at http://www.fsrs.gov for that first-tier subcontract. (The Contractor shall follow the instructions at http://www.fsrs.gov to report the data.) (i) Unique identifier (DUNS Number) for the subcontractor receiving the award and for the subcontractor's parent company, if the subcontractor has a parent company. (ii) Name of the subcontractor. (iii) Amount of the subcontract award. (iv) Date of the subcontract award. (v) A description of the products or services (including construction) being provided under the subcontract, including the overall purpose and expected outcomes or results of the subcontract.

(3) Executive compensation of the first-tier subcontractor. Unless otherwise directed by the Contracting Officer, by the end of the month following the month of award of a first-tier subcontract with a value of $25,000 or more, and annually thereafter (calculated from the prime contract award date), the Contractor shall report the names and total compensation of each of the five most highly compensated executives for that first-tier subcontractor for the first-tier subcontractor's preceding completed fiscal year at http://www.fsrs.gov, if- (i) In the subcontractor's preceding fiscal year, the subcontractor received- (A) 80 percent or more of its annual gross revenues from Federal contracts (and subcontracts), loans, grants (and subgrants), cooperative agreements, and other forms of Federal financial assistance; and (B) $25,000,000 or more in annual gross revenues from Federal contracts (and subcontracts), loans, grants (and subgrants), cooperative agreements, and other forms of Federal financial assistance; and (ii) The public does not have access to information about the compensation of the executives through periodic reports filed under section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78m(a), 78o(d)) or section 6104 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. (To determine if the public has access to the compensation information, see the U.S. Security and Exchange Commission total compensation filings at http://www.sec.gov/answers/execomp.htm.) (e) The Contractor shall not split or break down first-tier subcontract awards to a value less than $25,000 to avoid the reporting requirements in paragraph (d). (f) The Contractor is required to report information on a first-tier subcontract covered by paragraph (d) when the subcontract is awarded. Continued reporting on the same subcontract is not required unless one of the reported data elements changes during the performance of the subcontract. The Contractor is not required to make further reports after the first-tier subcontract expires. (g)(1) If the Contractor in the previous tax year had gross income, from all sources, under $300,000, the Contractor is exempt from the requirement to report subcontractor awards. (2) If a subcontractor in the previous tax year had gross income from all sources under $300,000, the Contractor does not need to report awards for that subcontractor. (h) The FSRS database at http://www.fsrs.gov will be prepopulated with some information from SAM and FPDS databases. If FPDS information is incorrect, the contractor should notify the contracting officer. If the SAM database information is incorrect, the contractor is responsible for correcting this information.

The contractor shall include the substance of this clause in all subcontracts under this contract that meet the applicability requirement of FAR 15.408(k). 52.222-99 ESTABLISHING A MINIMUM WAGE FOR CONTRACTORS (DEVIATION) (JULY 2014) This clause implements Executive Order 13658, Establishing a Minimum Wage for Contractors, dated February 12, 2014, and OMB Policy Memorandum M-14-09, Implementation of the President's Executive Order Establishing a Minimum Wage for Contractors, dated June 12, 2014. (a) Each service employee, laborer, or mechanic employed in the United States (the 50 states and the District of Columbia) in the performance of this contract by the prime Contractor or any subcontractor, regardless of any contractual relationship which may be alleged to exist between the Contractor and service employee, laborer, or mechanic, shall be paid not less than the applicable minimum wage under Executive Order 13658. The minimum wage required to be paid to each service employee, laborer, or mechanic performing work on this contract between January 1, 2015, and December 31, 2015, shall be $10.10 per hour. •(a) The Contractor shall adjust the minimum wage paid under this contract each time the Secretary of Labor's annual determination of the applicable minimum wage under section 2(a)(ii) of Executive Order 13658 results in a higher minimum wage. Adjustments to the Executive Order minimum wage under section 2(a)(ii) of Executive Order 13658 will be effective for all service employees, laborers, or mechanics subject to the Executive Order beginning January 1 of the following year. The Secretary of Labor will publish annual determinations in the Federal Register no later than 90 days before such new wage is to take effect.

When required, the Disclosure Statement must be submitted as a part of the offeror's proposal under this solicitation unless the offeror has already submitted a Disclosure Statement disclosing the practices used in connection with the pricing of this proposal. If an applicable Disclosure Statement has already been submitted, the offeror may satisfy the requirement for submission by providing the information requested in paragraph (c) of Part I of this provision.

The offeror further certifies that if such status changes before an award resulting from this proposal, the offeror will advise the Contracting Officer immediately. Caution: An offeror may not claim the above eligibility for modified contract coverage if this proposal is expected to result in the award of a CAS-covered contract of $50 million or more or if, during its current cost accounting period, the offeror has been awarded a single CAS-covered prime contract or subcontract of $50 million or more. III. Additional Cost Accounting Standards Applicable to Existing Contracts The offeror shall indicate below whether award of the contemplated contract would, in accordance with paragraph (a)(3) of the Cost Accounting Standards clause, require a change in established cost accounting practices affecting existing contracts and subcontracts. □ Yes □ No K.3 52.230-7 PROPOSAL DISCLOSURE - COST ACCOUNTING PRACTICE CHANGES (Apr-05) The offeror shall check "yes" below if the contract award will result in a required or unilateral change in cost accounting practice, including unilateral changes requested to be desirable changes. □ Yes □ No If the offeror checked "Yes" above, the offeror shall- (1) Prepare the price proposal in response to the solicitation using the changed practice for the period of performance for which the practice will be used; and (2) Submit a description of the changed cost accounting practice to the Contracting Officer and the Cognizant Federal Agency Official as pricing support for the proposal. K.4 52.209-5 CERTIFICATION REGARDING RESPONSIBILITY MATTERS (Apr 2010)) (a)(1) The Offeror certifies, to the best of its knowledge and belief, that- (i) The Offeror and/or any of its Principals- (A) Are  are not  presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, or declared ineligible for the award of contracts by any Federal agency; (B) Have  have not , within a three-year period preceding this offer, been convicted of or had a civil judgment rendered against them for: commission of fraud or a criminal offense in connection with obtaining, attempting to obtain, or performing a public (Federal, State, or local) contract or subcontract; violation of Federal or State antitrust statutes relating to the submission of offers; or commission of embezzlement, theft, forgery, bribery, falsification or destruction of records, making false statements, tax evasion, violating Federal criminal tax laws, or receiving stolen property (if offeror checks "have", the offeror shall also see 52.209-7, if included in this solicitation); (C) Are  are not  presently indicted for, or otherwise criminally or civilly charged by a governmental entity with, commission of any of the offenses enumerated in paragraph (a)(1)(i)(B) of this provision; (D) Have , have not , within a three-year period preceding this offer, been notified of any delinquent Federal taxes in an amount that exceeds $3,000 for which the liability remains unsatisfied. (1) Federal taxes are considered delinquent if both of the following criteria apply: (i) The tax liability is finally determined. The liability is finally determined if it has been assessed. A liability is not finally determined if there is a pending administrative or judicial challenge. In the case of a judicial challenge to the liability, the liability is not finally determined until all judicial appeal rights have been exhausted. (ii) The taxpayer is delinquent in making payment. A taxpayer is delinquent if the taxpayer has failed to pay the tax liability when full payment was due and required. A taxpayer is not delinquent in cases where enforced collection action is precluded. (2) Examples. (i) The taxpayer has received a statutory notice of deficiency, under I.R.C. § 6212, which entitles the taxpayer to seek Tax Court review of a proposed tax deficiency. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek Tax Court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights. (ii) The IRS has filed a notice of Federal tax lien with respect to an assessed tax liability, and the taxpayer has been issued a notice under I.R.C. § 6320 entitling the taxpayer to request a hearing with the IRS Office of Appeals contesting the lien filing, and to further appeal to the Tax Court if the IRS determines to sustain the lien filing. In the course of the hearing, the taxpayer is entitled to contest the underlying tax liability because the taxpayer has had no prior opportunity to contest the liability. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek tax court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights. (iii) The taxpayer has entered into an installment agreement pursuant to I.R.C. § 6159. The taxpayer is making timely payments and is in full compliance with the agreement terms. The taxpayer is not delinquent because the taxpayer is not currently required to make full payment. (iv) The taxpayer has filed for bankruptcy protection. The taxpayer is not delinquent because enforced collection action is stayed under 11 U.S.C. 362 (the Bankruptcy Code). (ii) The Offeror has  has not , within a three-year period preceding this offer, had one or more contracts terminated for default by any Federal agency. (2) "Principal," for the purposes of this certification, means an officer, director, owner, partner, or a person having primary management or supervisory responsibilities within a business entity ( e.g., general manager; plant manager; head of a division or business segment; and similar positions). This Certification Concerns a Matter Within the Jurisdiction of an Agency of the United States and the Making of a False, Fictitious, or Fraudulent Certification May Render the Maker Subject to Prosecution Under Section 1001, Title 18, United States Code. (b) The Offeror shall provide immediate written notice to the Contracting Officer if, at any time prior to contract award, the Offeror learns that its certification was erroneous when submitted or has become erroneous by reason of changed circumstances. (c) A certification that any of the items in paragraph (a) of this provision exists will not necessarily result in withholding of an award under this solicitation. However, the certification will be considered in connection with a determination of the Offeror's responsibility. Failure of the Offeror to furnish a certification or provide such additional information as requested by the Contracting Officer may render the Offeror non-responsible. (d) Nothing contained in the foregoing shall be construed to require establishment of a system of records in order to render, in good faith, the certification required by paragraph (a) of this provision. The knowledge and information of an Offeror is not required to exceed that which is normally possessed by a prudent person in the ordinary course of business dealings. (e) The certification in paragraph (a) of this provision is a material representation of fact upon which reliance was placed when making award. If it is later determined that the Offeror knowingly rendered an erroneous certification, in addition to other remedies available to the Government, the Contracting Officer may terminate the contract resulting from this solicitation for default.

The Government will then consider this proposed inflationary rate during its cost realism analysis and negotiated during discussions if necessary. The resulting inflationary rate will then become a part of the contract. Cost justifications based solely on historical data may be considered insufficient to support cost proposals. Historical data may be used to the extent that it can be shown to be relevant to this specific procurement, reflective of any changed conditions and circumstances. Provide narrative justification for each line item showing how the labor, material, travel, subcontractors, facility maintenance, and other costs outlined on the ETA 2110 were determined. Include the backup data to support the type of labor and estimated numbers of staff within each labor category. The facility shall be provided as Government-furnished property at no cost to the contractor. Under those ETA 2110 line items relating to staff costs, show the following: (1) position title; (2) number of positions in terms of full-time equivalents (FTEs); (3) range of annual salaries/wages for the position title; (4) average direct annual salary/wages on a per FTE basis (5) average benefits and other indirect employee compensation costs on a per FTE basis; (6) total employee compensation cost to the contract for each position title. Individual, separate staff position costs will be included in the narrative justification for each line item of the ETA 2110. Do not consolidate costs for similar positions. Show each position cost separately. Include a breakdown of the amount estimated for travel, including destination, duration, purpose and cost (per diem and transportation). Include backup data to support the estimated amount of material and subcontracting (if applicable), including description of materials to be procured, basis for proposed subcontract, and amounts proposed. Subcontract information shall contain the list of names and addresses of any proposed subcontractors or consultants the offeror intends to use in the performance of the contract. Include the following information about subcontractors in excess of $25,000: • i. Will the subcontractor be able to start performance at the beginning of the contract period? • ii. What is the total cost of each subcontract? • iii. What experience does the subcontractor have in this technical area? • iv. What services (skills) will the subcontractor provide? • v. What steps did the offeror take to ensure that this subcontract is the best value. • vi. Confirmation that there is no conflict of interest between the prime contractor and the subcontractor. •e. Transition Costs Please note that the Government will analyze proposed transition in and transition out costs for reasonableness. However, Transition in costs and transition out costs will not be considered as part of the offeror's evaluated cost nor will it be factored into the Government's Best Value, Trade Off analysis. The transitions in costs and the transition out costs will be identified in the awardee's pricing schedule at the time of award and will be considered as part of the total awarded estimated cost. The Transition Costs section of the Business Management Proposal encompasses three things: •1) For offerors who are not the incumbent contractor at the subject Job Corps center, the offeror shall include a description of estimated costs for transitioning into the center. This shall include all personnel costs, travel and any other supplies or expenses the offeror anticipates incurring during the transition-in. These expenses will appear in CLIN 0001 on the pricing schedule. •2) Both incumbent and non-incumbent offerors shall include in the Transition Costs subsection of their Business Management, a description of all costs that the offeror reasonably anticipates it will occur as part of transition-out activities at the end of the contract that will result from this solicitation. The Employment and Training Administration understands that this estimate is dependent upon some factors that are unknown at the time of the proposal preparation, such as the amount of unpaid leave. However, offerors are asked to use their best business judgment in preparing this estimate. These expenses will appear in CLIN 4001 on the pricing schedule. It is the intent of the Government to have an orderly operation during the last 30 days of any incumbent's contract (see FAR Clause 52.237-3, Continuity of Service). Therefore, the incumbent contractor will be allowed the normal costs of operating the center for the final month of the contract. The incumbent's administrative activities required to orient the incoming contractor will be an allowable direct cost. It is the Government's expectation that the outgoing contractor will use persons already included in its organizational indirect cost package for such activities joint physical inventory counts and reconciliation, student pay reconciliation with the new contractor and final billings after contract expiration. The allowable cost for Transition-Out will be limited to earned but unpaid leave, and any other costs determined to be reasonable, allowable and allocable by the Contracting Officer. Please note that offerors who are the incumbent contractor at the subject Job Corps center shall not include any transition-out costs under this solicitation that would be associated with transitioning-out of center operations under the current incumbent contract. Such expenses would be allocable to the incumbent contract and thus will be handled in a separate process to equitably adjust the incumbent contractor for transition-out expenses that will occur if the incumbent contractor is not the successful offeror and is required to transition-out. f. Small Business Subcontracting Plan (Does not apply to Small Businesses) Offerors shall submit a subcontracting plan prepared in accordance with FAR Clause 52.219.9. The plan shall cover the base two (2) year contract period, and each of the option years. The plan must separately address subcontracting with 1) small business, 2) small disadvantaged business (includes 8(a) businesses), 3) women-owned small business, 4) veteran owned small businesses (includes service disabled veteran owned small businesses), 5) service disabled veteran owned small businesses, and 6) HUBZone concerns. The offeror shall complete and submit Attachment J-6, Subcontracting Plan Summary Sheet both in hard copy and on CD using EXCEL 2003 or earlier version. The contractor shall determine the dollar value of services to be subcontracted. Of that amount, the contractor must, at a minimum, award subcontracts so as to achieve the following goals: Small Businesses 61% Small Disadvantaged Businesses 11% Women-owned Small Businesses 7% HUBZone Small Businesses 3% Veteran Owned Small Businesses 3% Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Businesses 3% The Department of Labor encourages subcontracting key program components to small business concerns. Key components include personnel to deliver social development, academic education, career technical training and administration. For proposed subcontracting of key components, the appropriate section of the technical proposal must describe in detail the organizational relationships and procedures established to ensure proper management, oversight, training, coordination, etc. A complete breakdown of costs associated with the subcontracting of a key component of center operations must be displayed in the Cost Proposal. This should also include any costs associated with oversight of the sub-contractual relationship. Small Businesses should note that while a subcontracting plan is not required, it is requested that they provide a listing of subcontracts that are anticipated. The subcontract list should include at a minimum a list of the functions, tasks, and positions that are proposed and the anticipated dollar value. Please be advised, offers shall include in their subcontracting plan, 100% subcontracting to a small business entity for the areas of Outreach and Admissions and Career Transitions Services (OACTS).

SECTION M. - EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD M.1 EVALUATION OF PROPOSALS Proposals will be reviewed by a panel of evaluators. Each panelist will evaluate the proposals in accordance with the specific evaluation factors enumerated in this Section M. All evaluation factors, except for cost, will be adjectivally rated. The Contracting Officer may award a contract on the basis of initial proposals received, without discussions or any opportunity to make a further submission. Therefore, each initial offer should contain the Offeror's best terms from a cost and technical standpoint. Note that all ratings are considered advisory only, and are not binding on the source selection official. M.2 ORDER OF IMPORTANCE OF EVALUATION FACTORS The evaluation factors listed in descending order of importance are as follows: Past Performance, Technical Approach, Staff Resources and Cost Please note that Past Performance is more important than Technical Approach, which is more important than Staff Resources. And, Past Performance, Technical Approach and Staff Resources combined are significantly more important than cost. The Technical Approach evaluation factor has elements, which are listed in descending order of importance: •a. Career Development Period •b. Career Transition Period •c. Career Preparation Period •d. Admissions •e. Outreach •f. Administrative & Management Support Services The Staff Resources evaluation factor has elements, which are listed in descending order of importance: •a. Adequacy of staffing •b. Corporate Oversight and Support •c. Staff Position Descriptions •d. Staff Development and Incentives •e. Center Director •f. Transition-in and Transition-out M.3 EVALUATION FACTORS •1. Past Performance Past performance will be evaluated based on information furnished by the references identified in Section L and any other available sources, such as Job Corps' Contractor's Automated Past Effectiveness Rating System and Outcomes Measurement System, the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), and esrs.gov. The Government will evaluate the quality of performance relative to the scope, size, and complexity to the work described in the solicitation. The Government will consider Past Performance information for the offeror or entity and/or its principals proposed as the prime contractor, as well as subcontractors that will perform major or critical aspects of the requirement, when such information is relevant to this procurement. In addition, the Government will consider past performance information regarding predecessor companies, and key personnel who have relevant experience. When the offeror is a joint venture or contractor team at the prime level, the past performance of the team, if any, will be considered. If the Offeror is a newly formed entity, the Government will evaluate the experience of the individual entity or entities that comprise the newly formed entity. If the Offeror is a joint venture, LLC, team, or other similar entity, DOL will evaluate the experience of the entities comprised of the joint venture, LLC, team or other similar entity. If the team has no relevant past performance, but one or more team members do, the Contracting Officer will make a determination, at his/her discretion, based on the availability of past performance information for a team member, and the nature and extent of that team member's proposed contribution to the work of the contract, as to whether or how to evaluate past performance for the team. In addition to the information provided by the offeror in response to Section L, the Government may consider information obtained from other governmental and non-governmental sources. The evaluation will include the past performance of offerors in complying with subcontracting plan goals for small disadvantaged business (SDB) concerns, monetary targets for SDB participation and notifications submitted under FAR part 19.1202-4(b). Names of individuals providing reference information about an Offeror's past performance shall not be disclosed. In evaluating past performance, the Government will focus on information that demonstrates quality of the Offeror's experience relevant to the size and complexity of the procurement under consideration. In addition, only past performance information for work performed during the past three years and at least six months in duration will be considered. In accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation, an offeror without a record of relevant past performance shall not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably for this category. The offeror will receive a neutral rating. 2. Technical Approach The Technical Approach section of the offeror's proposal is comprised of answers to the questions that the Government posed in Section L.6, I, Instructions for Proposal Submission, Proposal Content. Offeror's answers to the questions will be evaluated in accordance with the following: •(i) The extent to which the offeror's proposal demonstrates a strong understanding of the work to be accomplished and the extent to which the offeror's strategies and methods are in compliance with the PRH. •(ii) The degree to which the offeror's strategies and methods are tailored to operate in the context of the State's eligible population, the local and regional labor market, and any other data provided by the Contracting Officer. •(iii) The degree to which the offeror's proposal offers feasible strategies and methods to ensure the achievement of Job Corps' specified outcomes and quality indicators? 3. Staff Resources The information provided in the offeror's Staff Resources section of its proposal shall be evaluated in accordance with the following: •a. Adequacy of Staffing Adequacy of Staffing will be evaluated to determine the appropriateness of the number and adequacy of staffing in accordance with the PRH. •b. Corporate Oversight and Support Corporate Oversight and Support will be evaluated to determine the adequacy of management/corporate services as well as other corporate support (G&A) that will be provided to this contract. •c. Staff Position Descriptions The position descriptions for the staff identified below will be evaluated to determine the quality and adequacy duties described in the position descriptions. • i. Deputy Center Director • ii. Administration Director/Manager • iii. Programs Director • iv. Training Managers (Academic and Career Technical Training) • v. Career Success Manager (Social Development Manager) •d. Staff Development and Incentives Staff Development and Incentives will be evaluated to determine the appropriateness and adequacy of the staff development, retention, and incentives. •e. Key Personnel - Center Director The Center Director will be evaluated to determine quality and adequacy of the Center Director's credentials, experience, and accomplishments as well as the adequacy of the duties identified in the position description. •f. Transition Offeror's approach to transition-in or transition-out will be evaluated in accordance with the following: (i) The degree to which the transition plan demonstrates the offeror's knowledge the scope of the tasks to be accomplished. (ii) The adequacy of the corporate resources proposed to complete the tasks to be accomplished. 4. Cost In accordance with FAR 15.404-1, the Government will conduct a price analysis to assess whether the contract price proposed is fair and reasonable. The Government will also conduct a cost analysis focused on the reasonableness of the estimate costs of performance, as distinct from the reasonableness of the contract price. As a part of its cost analysis, the Government will perform a cost realism analysis of each offeror's proposed costs to determine a probable cost of performing the contract using the offeror's proposed approach. This cost realism analysis will result in a determination of a Probable Cost ("PC") for the offeror's proposed approach. To explain, offerors' cost proposals reflect advance estimates of cost that may not be valid indicators of final actual costs. As a result, the Government's cost realism analysis is intended to guard against unsupported claims of cost savings ( e.g., unrealistically low cost estimates) by determining whether the costs as proposed represent what the agency realistically expects to pay for the proposed effort. As a product of the agency's cost realism analysis, the PC is a single number that represents the Government's forward-looking estimate of the probable cost of performance for each offeror. The PC may differ from the proposed cost and shall be used for purposes of the evaluation to determine the best value proposal. To foster competition and create more of a level field, please note that the Government will not evaluate transition in or transition out in evaluated cost/price. M.4 SUBCONTRACTING PLAN Please note that part of the analysis of the offeror's business management proposal will include an analysis of the offeror's subcontracting plan. The subcontracting plan will be reviewed in accordance with the following: (i) To what extent does the plan fully address all aspects of FAR 52.219-9? (ii) How effective is the proposal in offering concrete, feasible, proven strategies and methods to ensure the achievement of small business goals in each category? (iii) To what extent does the offeror plan to subcontract major program components? Proposals that include plans that do not meet mandated goals will not be eligible for award. M.5 BASIS FOR AWARD (BEST VALUE) - TRADEOFF The Government anticipates the award of a single contract as a result of this solicitation to the responsible Offeror whose proposal is responsive to the solicitation and is determined to be the best value to the Government. Selection of the best value is determined through the process of evaluating strengths and weaknesses of each Offeror's proposal in accordance with the evaluation criteria stated herein. In determining the best value, past performance is more important than technical approach, which is more important than staff resources. And, past performance, technical approach and staff resource combined are significantly more important than cost. The Government is more concerned with obtaining a proposal demonstrating superior past performance, technical approach and staff resources, than making an award at the lowest evaluated cost. Thus, the closer or more similar in merit that the Offeror's past performance, technical approach and staff resources are evaluated to be; the more likely the evaluated cost may be the determining factor in selection for award. However, the Government will not make an award at a premium in cost that it considers disproportionate to the benefits associated with the evaluated technical superiority of the technical proposal (past performance, technical approach and staff resources). The Government will assess whether the strengths and weaknesses between or among competing proposals indicate superiority from the standpoint of what the difference might mean in terms of expected performance and what the evaluated cost to the Government would be to take advantage of the difference.
