The purpose of this modification is to perform the CO annual agreement review and to incorporate any 2025 clause/provision/WD changes into the VIPR IBPA. Vendor's response is due by 03/02/2025 @ 17:00 PST. During this open period, vendors will be allowed to propose the following changes for Government acceptance:

1) update company information

2) replace currently awarded resource(s)

3) add additional resource(s) through onboarding

4) change host dispatch center(s) within advertisement zone; and

5) propose new rates (subject to CO fair and reasonable rate analysis)

A non-response to this modification is vendor acceptance of all VIPR 2025 terms and conditions. Note updated Wage Determination Non-response also nullifies any opportunities to make annual changes to the agreement. Vendor responses not submitted by required date are considered non-responsive.

It is not the Government?s intent to modify the VIPR agreements at any time during the fire season. Requests for vendor changes to agreements following the allowable roll over modification timeframe is an undue and unacceptable administrative burden for the Government. Modifications, technical reviews, and/or inspections outside of the annual review window and/or during the active fire season (March - September annually) are not standard practice and may be substantially delayed, if considered at all, due to the unavailability of the CO or Contract Operations staff. This is not a violation of the agreement. Requests for pricing adjustments for work performed outside of awarded GACC will not be considered.

NOTE: AN INACTIVE SAM ACCOUNT WILL RESULT IN AGREEMENT SUSPENSION. Your account being active in SAM is directly related to your ability to receive payment for any orders received. If you do not update the Entity Management information at least once every 365 days, the registration becomes in-active (B.7: SUMMARY).
