INFORMATION FOR ORDERING ACTIVITIES APPLICABLE TO ALL SPECIAL ITEM NUMBERS
SPECIAL NOTICE TO AGENCIES: Small Business Participation
SBA strongly supports the participation of small business concerns in the Federal Supply Schedules Program. To enhance Small Business Participation SBA policy allows agencies to include in their procurement base and goals, the dollar value of orders expected to be placed against the Federal Supply Schedules, and to report accomplishments against these goals.
For orders exceeding the micropurchase threshold, FAR 8.404 requires agencies to consider the catalogs/pricelists of at least three schedule contractors or consider reasonably available information by using the GSA Advantage!ä on-line shopping service (www.fss.gsa.gov). The catalogs/pricelists, GSA Advantage!ä and the Federal Supply Service Home Page (www.fss.gsa.gov) contain information on a broad array of products and services offered by small business concerns.
This information should be used as a tool to assist ordering activities in meeting or exceeding established small business goals. It should also be used as a tool to assist in including small, small disadvantaged, and women-owned small businesses among those considered when selecting pricelists for a best value determination.
For orders exceeding the micropurchase threshold, customers are to give preference to small business concerns when two or more items at the same delivered price will satisfy their requirement.

22 INSTALLATION, DEINSTALLATION, REINSTALLATION

The requirements of the Davis-Bacon Act do not apply if the construction work is incidental to the furnishing of supplies, equipment, or services. For example, the requirements do not apply to simple installation or alteration of a public building or public work that is incidental to furnishing supplies or equipment under a supply contract. However, if the construction, alteration or repair is segregable and exceeds $2,000, then the requirements of the Davis-Bacon Act applies.
The ordering activity issuing the task order against this contract will be responsible for proper administration and enforcement of the Federal labor standards covered by the Davis-Bacon Act. The proper Davis-Bacon wage determination will be issued by the ordering activity at the time a request for quotations is made for applicable construction classified installation, deinstallation, and reinstallation services under SIN 132-8.

However, the Contractor will not be liable for any other costs incurred including (for example) travel charges or any consequential damages even if the Contractor was advised of them. Changes in course locations, course dates, or postponement of courses will not extend a Training Passport or Premium Pass expiration date.

15. SPECIAL PROGRAMS
A. College Credit
The American Council on Education (ACE) College Credit Recommendation Service recommends Contractor courses for college credit to more than 1,500 universities and colleges. Two semester hours of college credit are recommended by ACE for most Contractor four and five-day courses. Participation in this program is optional and the Contractor pays initial registration fees with ACE.
Step 1. Successfully complete a Contractor course and pass the associated exam. Students will be given an opportunity during the course to participate in the College Credit Program. The exam is given at the end of the course.
Step 2. The Contractor will handle registration with ACE and pay the associated fee. The student’s ACE Registry record will be automatically updated once the student successfully completes additional Contractor courses and passes the associated exams.
Step 3. Whenever the student wishes to send a transcript of the earned Contractor educational achievements to a university or college, the student contacts ACE directly. ACE personnel are available by phone to assist on an ongoing basis or students may complete a Transcript Request Form online at the ACE website.
B. Tuition Discount
Once the student has attended the first course, they will automatically receive an Alumni Gold tuition Discount card which entitles the student to additional savings from commercial list prices on all subsequent courses that are taken during the following 12 month period. To receive the discount, the student must state the personal Alumni gold number when enrolling.
C. Government Training Passports (3 COURSE) Program
Learning Tree’s Government Training Passports allow a course participant to attend as many as three instructor led courses over a 12-month period. The Learning Tree Government Training Passport (3 COURSE) expires 12 months after the start date of the first course attended under that Government Training Passport.
Payment will be due within seven days after the invoice date of each course attendance. In addition, the purchasing agency is required to submit a blanket Government Training Form and/or Purchase Order for the total Passport amount in advance of the start date of the first course attended under the Government Training Passport. Learning Tree will accept Training Forms and/or Purchase Orders by mail, facsimile, or electronic transmission. The Training Form and/or Purchase Order is required to administer payment processing, as it shows clear authorization by the ordering agency for an employee’s attendance pursuant to the Learning Tree Government Training Passport Program.
Learning Tree’s Government Training Passport is non-transferable and is only to be used to attend courses by the named holder. Government Training Passports cannot be used after their expiration dates, and a course cancellation or transfer by the customer will not extend a Government Training Passport expiration date. The purchasing agency will pay for each course under the Government Training Passport after services are rendered. There is no potential for loss of funds as the Government will pay in arrears for each course attended at the GSA discounted individual seat price or GSA discounted Alumni Gold price.
For a Learning Tree Government Training Passport (3 COURSE), the first course will be invoiced at the GSA discounted individual seat price, the second course will be invoiced at the GSA discounted Alumni Gold price, and the third course will be invoiced at the difference between the full GSA Learning Tree Government Training Passport price and the total amount already paid. Thereby, the Government will pay for courses only after attendance.
D. Government Training Voucher Program
Government Training vouchers are available in 5 course packs and above. The standard price is discounted based on number of events purchased by an organization. Learning Tree’s Government Training Vouchers allow organizations maximum flexibility to meet evolving training needs as each Voucher can be used in lieu of tuition to allow anyone in the organization to attend any Learning Tree public course. The Government Training Vouchers do not expire.
Payment will be due within seven days of the invoice date. Learning Tree will prepare a monthly invoice to include the actual number of course attendances in the previous month, with each priced according to the discounts offered through the Government Training Voucher Program. In addition, the purchasing agency is required to submit a blanket Government Training Form and/or Purchase Order for the total Voucher amount in advance of the start date of the first course attended under the Government Training Voucher. Each Training Voucher may be redeemed for one course event, for one person, at any of Learning Tree’s public courses. Training Vouchers cover the Public Course tuition only. They do not cover travel, meals or other related expenses. The Training voucher is transferrable and a qualified substitute will be allowed to attend in the enrollee’s place. This substitution can be made at any time prior to the first day of the course.
E. Government Premium Pass
With a Premium Pass, one person can take as many as four courses in 24 months at discounted rates. Premium Passes (i) are non-transferable and can only be used to pay course tuition fees for the named holder and (ii) cannot be used to attend courses either in excess of the specified number of courses or which start more than 24 months after the start date of the first course attended under that Premium Pass. Learning Tree reserves the right to exclude particular courses from the Premium Pass program. Payment for a Premium Pass can be made by company check, GSA SmartPay or GCPC credit card. The purchasing agency will be invoiced for each course after course attendance. The first course will be invoiced at the GSA discounted individual seat price, the second course will be invoiced at the GSA discounted Alumni Gold price, the third course will be invoiced at the lesser amount between the GSA discounted Alumni Gold price or the difference between the full Government Premium Pass price and the total amount already invoiced, and the fourth course will be invoiced at the difference, if any, between the full Government Premium Pass price and the total amount already invoiced. Thereby, the Government will pay for courses only after attendance. In addition, the purchasing agency is required to submit a blanket Government Training Form and/or Purchase Order for the total Premium Pass price within 7 days after the start date of the first course attended under the Premium Pass. Payment on a Premium Pass invoice is due within 7 days of receipt of the invoice.
F. Learning Tree AnyWare™ Materials Fee:
Our Materials Fee is included in our overall course tuition pricing. A customer is responsible for returning any materials received for an AnyWare™ course that is cancelled and not rescheduled.
