The Government may also require an EVMS for other acquisitions, in accordance with agency policy contained in VA Directive 6061. Contractors that are required to have their own EVMS shall follow procedures contained in the VA EVMS Application Guide. 2.The following paragraphs reflect EVMS requirements and may be modified as necessary for selected use. [Choose one of the subparagraph a's below.] a.Integrated Contractor Services. This contract requires that contractors providing direct support services to VA staff will be required to participate in the VA EVMS and submit timesheets. Contractor personnel integrated into VA Staff and providing direct support in the completion of VA project tasks as part of the Government Earned Value Management System must provide assigned task planning, executing, controlling, and closing information to government project management staff. Gathering this information would include having individual contractor resources enter their planned and actual work time against their assigned activities into the government project tracking/timesheet application. The contractor shall be responsible for ensuring all work information is correct. Or b.Contractor Independent Deliverables. This contract requires the contractor to operate as a distinct entity to produce a deliverable(s). The contractor is required to have its own compliant EVMS, per VA Directive 6061, Table B-1, and provide EVM reports to the VA. (1). Non-Compliant EVMS. If the offeror proposes to use a system that has not been determined to be in compliance with the American National Standards Institute /Electronics Industries Alliance (ANSI/EIA) Standard-748, Earned Value Management Systems, the offeror shall submit a comprehensive plan for compliance with these EVMS standards. Offerors shall not be eliminated from consideration for contract award because they do not have an EVMS that complies with these standards. (2). EVMS Reports. As a minimum, contracting officers shall require contractors to submit EVMS monthly reports for those contracts for which an EVMS applies. (3). Subcontractors. EVMS requirements will be applied to subcontractors using the same rules as applied to the prime contractor. VA will decide the flow down of the EVM requirement to subcontractors. In all cases, the prime contractor is responsible for reporting EVM data. (4). EVMS Plan. When an offeror is required to provide an EVMS plan as part of its proposal, the contracting officer will determine the adequacy of the proposed EVMS plan prior to contract award. (5). Performance Measurement Baseline. Contractors are required to resource load schedules in order to set a performance measurement baseline. Resources do not have to be specifically named. (6). Program Management Reviews. The Contractor shall conduct Program Management Review (PMR) meetings at mutually agreed upon dates and locations. During these reviews, the contractor shall present integrated cost, schedule, and technical performance status. Government Integrated Product Team (IPT) leads or functional managers shall include cost information in discussions of schedule status, technical performance, and risk using earned value as an integrating tool. The following shall be addressed: Cost/schedule trends, significant cost/schedule/technical variances, projected impacts, quantified risk assessments, and corrective action plans. (7). Contractor Earned Value Management. The Cost Performance Report Description (VA-DI-MGMT-81466A), and Integrated Master Schedule Description (VA-DI-MGMT-81650) shall be developed, maintained, updated/statused and reported on a monthly basis per deliverable requirements, respectively. The contractor shall establish, maintain, and use in the performance of this contract, an integrated management system compliant with the Industry Guidelines for Earned Value Management Systems (EVMS) ANSI/EIA-748 as determined by the Government. An EVMS that has been formally validated and accepted by the cognizant contracting officer is required for all (fixed price, cost, or incentive) contracts, subcontracts, and other agreements valued at or greater than $50 million in then-year dollars. The application of these concepts shall provide for early indicators of contract cost and schedule problems. For contracts valued at or greater than $20 million but less than $50 million then-year dollars, the following statement applies: The contractor is required to have an Earned Value Management System that complies with ANSI/EIA-748; however, the government will not formally validate/accept the contractor's management system (no formal review). The contractor will submit an EVMS description and proof of prior certification with its bid. (8). Integrated Baseline Review (IBR). The contractor shall review its performance measurement baseline plan with the Government within six months of contract award or initiation of an Undefinitized Contract Action, and subsequently, when required, following major changes to the baseline. The Government will verify during the IBR, and follow-on IBRs when required that the contractor has established and maintains a reliable performance measurement baseline. The contractor will ensure that the baseline includes the entire contract technical scope of work consistent with contract schedule requirements, and has adequate resources assigned. The contractor will assure the Government that effective earned value methodologies are used to accurately measure work accomplished and determine contract cost, schedule, and technical performance. The IBR will be used to achieve a mutual understanding of the baseline plan, cost and schedule risk, and the underlying management processes used for planning and controlling the project. (9). Subcontract Cost/Schedule Management and Reporting. Subcontracts exceeding $20M in then-year dollars will apply the requirements of the Integrated Master Schedule Description (VA-DIMGMT-81650) and the Cost Performance Report Description (VA-DIMGMT-81466). For contracts valued at or greater than $20 million but less than $50 million, the following statement applies: The contractor is required to have an Earned Value Management System that complies with ANSI/EIA-748; however, the Government will not formally validate/accept the contractor's management system (no formal review). EVMS flow down to contracts of less than $20M in then-year dollars or Firm Fixed Price contracts that exceed 12 months duration is a risk-based decision and will be as mutually agreed between the contractor and the Government. (10). Contract Work Breakdown Structure (CWBS). The contractor shall develop and maintain the CWBS and CWBS dictionary. (11). over Target Baseline (OTB)/Restructure. The contractor may conclude the baseline no longer represents a realistic plan in terms of budget/schedule execution. In the event the contractor determines an OTB/Restructuring action is necessary, the contractor must obtain Government approval prior to implementing an OTB/Restructuring action. The request should alsoinclude detailed implementation procedures as well as an implementation timeframe. The contractor will not implement the OTB/Restructuring prior to receiving written approval from the Contracting Officer. (12). Award Fee Criteria. For contracts that include an award fee, the contractor will demonstrate the use of Earned Value Management (EVM) as a tool for cost and schedule control and as a basis for communicating with the Government. The Government will determine the eligibility for of and amount of any award fee granted. In addition to demonstrating the use of EVM award fee criteria for the contractor will include the following: (a). Maintain timely detail planning as far in advance as practical; (b). Ensure the system provides accurate cost/schedule performance status, reliable and timely cost/schedule projections, and quantified risk assessments; (c). Provide clear and comprehensive explanations of performance problems and associated impacts, and establish and carry out effective recovery plans; (d). Control and minimize changes to the baseline particularly in the near term; (e). Ensure all subcontractor-authorized effort is detail planned into measurable objective work packages to the extent possible; (f). Provide program-level Estimate at Completion (EAC) assessments that include consideration of potential risks and cost containment plans; and (g). Demonstrate responsiveness regarding management system and cost/schedule performance questions and issues/concerns raised by the Government. 1.
