Method), requires that a contractor must
submit at the exercise of each option to
extend the term of the contract, a
statement of the amount claimed for
incorporation of the most current wage
determination by the Department of
Labor, and any relevant supporting data,
including payroll records, that the
contracting officer may reasonably
require.
The contracting officer may include
this clause in fixed-price solicitations
and contracts, subject to the DavisBacon Act, that will contain option
provisions to extend the term of the
contract and the Contracting Officer
determines the most appropriate
method to establish contract price is the
method at 22.404–12(c)(4). Generally,
this method is only appropriate if
contract requirements are
predominantly services subject to the
Service Contract Act and the
construction requirements are
substantial and segregable.
