COMMERCIAL ITEM DETERMINATION & PRICING OVERVIEW Presented By: Director, Commercial Pricing Team Tom Walker OCT 6, 2015

GOAL Develop enhanced capability within DCMA to meet buying office and internal DCMA requests for commercial item determination and pricing support; A (CID&P) “Cadre” Stand-up of Organization as of 11 January 2015. Manpower being established to fulfill this goal and meet customer expectations. Imperative: 2013 NDAA, Section 831(b) 2

Observations to Date Commercial Item Determinations (CID) Pricing More commercial “of a type” items are pushing boundaries of the definition Prime contractors are prone to simply accept subcontractor commerciality assertions at face value Assertions lack detail requiring numerous RFIs Continuous contractor push-back to recommendations in government pricing reports on CID and Price Reasonableness is significantly delaying acquisitions Pricing Subcontractors – particularly true commercial vendors – are not providing the information necessary to determine fair and reasonable prices Low quantities of commercial sales raise concerns on price validation Prices for high quantities of government purchases not reflective of expected volume discounts Current historical data is often an issue Heavy DoDIG interest 3

AQKAP & What We Provide Core Cadre is standing up now in St. Petersburg, FL Provide training, analysis and other assistance to the buying commands and agencies, as well as internal DCMA ACO’s Direct PCO support for Commercial Item Determinations – Recommendations only! Market Analysis and Pricing Support Internal Cost & Pricing Center Technical Resources, with ability to leverage Navy Price Fighters as required Other Cost & Pricing Hubsites lend surge capacity as needed 4

Commercial Team Where We Are Initial plans call for 50 personnel Spread geographically to 5 locations besides St. Pete Will be a mix of Contracts and Pricing and Analysts Hiring will focus on both internal and external (Commercial) candidates Will still heavily rely on Operations ACOs and Pricing as the front line for both CID and Price reasonableness DCMA Inst. – 120 – April 1, 2014 Major Proposal – over $250 million – referred to Director of Proposal Pricing --- to Commercial Cost & Pricing Team DCMA AQKAP – Group email 5

Organized Geographically Expertise in Local Market Sectors Locations Tampa Bay Denver/ Colorado Springs Phoenix Cincinnati/ Dayton Boston Philadelphia Organized Geographically Expertise in Local Market Sectors (e.g., C4I in Colorado) Proximity to: Offeror Production/ Warehouse Facilities Customers Travel Hubs DCMA/DoD Facilities 6

DCMA Technical Analysis Support for Commercial Acquisitions DCMA Provides Technical Analysis and Contractor Oversight for Commercial Items Acquisitions Includes Should-Cost analysis, Technical Support to Negotiations and data from previous analyses via CBAR Analyze configuration changes against the commercial product Substantiate contractor’s Commercial Item assertion with technical recommendations, cost rationale, and supporting data Reduce risk to Commercial Item acquisition Successful history of performing engineering analyses of contractor cost proposals per the FAR Overview DCMA Provides Technical Analysis and Contractor Oversight for Commercial Items Acquisitions What We Provide Should-Cost analysis, Technical Support to Negotiations, CBAR historical data How we do it Analyze configuration changes against the commercial product Substantiate contractor’s Commercial Item assertion with technical recommendations, cost rationale, and supporting data Why Reduce Risk to Commercial Item Acquisition Successful history of performing engineering analyses of contractor cost proposals per FAR 42 15.403-4 Excerpt (3) Commercial items. (i) Any acquisition of an item that the contracting officer determines meets the commercial item definition in 2.101, or any modification, as defined in paragraph (3)(i) of that definition, that does not change the item from a commercial item to a noncommercial item, is exempt from the requirement for certified cost or pricing data. If the contracting officer determines that an item claimed to be commercial is, in fact, not commercial and that no other exception or waiver applies, (e.g. the acquisition is not based on adequate price competition; the acquisition is not based on prices set by law or regulation; and the acquisition exceeds the threshold for the submission of certified cost or pricing data at 15.403-4(a)(1)) the contracting officer shall require submission of certified cost or pricing data. Seeking synergy through collaboration with other Agencies and Services to capture best practices and develop consistent processes.

DCMA Technical Analysis Technical Review Incorporates: Mission Capability: Reference performance specifications that were used to document the "item(s)" mission capability/engineering requirement Comparison: Identify the Performance Characteristics of the item being purchased by US Government (Function) Identify the Physical Characteristics of the item being purchased (Form, Fit - Function) Manufacturing process and any testing Identify Manufacturing process Identify Testing procedures Identify any unique features that may relate to item being purchased by US Government NOTE: Item could be a part or a subsystem Overview DCMA Provides Technical Analysis and Contractor Oversight for Commercial Items Acquisitions What We Provide Should-Cost analysis, Technical Support to Negotiations, CBAR historical data How we do it Analyze configuration changes against the commercial product Substantiate contractor’s Commercial Item assertion with technical recommendations, cost rationale, and supporting data Why Reduce Risk to Commercial Item Acquisition Successful history of performing engineering analyses of contractor cost proposals per FAR 42 15.403-4 Excerpt (3) Commercial items.

DCMA Technical Analysis Notice that Detailed Notes is something that should be done throughout the review. The reason is because DCMA Engineering support does not stop at the submission of the technical report Two outcomes of the CID Review The first to recommend to PCO commercial or non-commercial based on this flow Chart The second is to support Price Reasonableness / assist DCMA Cost Analyst

DCMA Technical Approach Review CID Package Determine/recommend the applicable FAR 2.101 definition Research Company Types of Products Produced Similar Products used in other systems/equipment Research Product Mission Capability Purpose/Function Perform Market Research Manufacturing Process Compare Product to Baseline Product (focus on Minor and Major Modifications) Document Results Technical Report D E T A I L N O S Notice that Detailed Notes is something that should be done throughout the review. The reason is because DCMA Engineering support does not stop at the submission of the technical report Two outcomes of the CID Review The first to recommend to PCO commercial or non-commercial based on this flow Chart The second is to support Price Reasonableness / assist DCMA Cost Analyst Technical Analysis of a CID package needs to focus on capability and function of product

Regulatory Update New Proposed Rule 2013-D034 published 8-3-15 Key Points: Adds definition of “market based Pricing and “uncertified cost data” Market based Pricing means nongovernment buyers are “preponderance” (> 50%) of sales Nongovernment sales = nongovernment sale and for nongovernment purpose Market based pricing is preferred method of establishing fair and reasonable If relevant sales data reflecting market based is provided, the PCO shall not obtain cost data Must consider market based pricing, age of data, volume, nature of acquisition, catalog (reflective in sales data) and T&Cs PGI added to Identify “Cadre of Experts” “Of a type” comparison can be quite the challenge because the contractor does not adequately demonstrate the differences between the baseline product and proposed product. Example…the contractor modified the commercial item and stated the price was 3 times more because it was 3X more complex than commercial item. In this case they did provide the baseline. Do you believe this is reasonable? 18
