Category H (Professional Services)/Subcategory H01 (Business Administrative Services)

Order Level Materials (OLM)
OLMs are supplies and/or services acquired in direct support of an individual task or delivery order placed against a Schedule contract or BPA. OLM pricing is not established at the Schedule contract or BPA level, but at the order level. Since OLMs are identified and acquired at the order level, the ordering contracting officer is responsible for making a fair and reasonable price determination for all OLMs. OLMs are procured under a special ordering procedure that simplifies the process for acquiring supplies and services necessary to support individual task or delivery orders placed against a Schedule contract or BPA. Using this new procedure, ancillary supplies and services not known at the time of the Schedule award may be included and priced at the order level.
HOW TO PLACE AN ORDER
You can contract directly with IEM using IEM’s GSA contracts. IEM’s experts will assist you in choosing the appropriate contract vehicle and SIN, and guide you in following the procurement path that best meets your current needs in a timely manner. Contact us for advice on how to use IEM contract vehicles to fulfill immediate needs or recurring requirements. IEM’s contract vehicles offer the flexibility to meet any requirement, evolve with the changing marketplace, and deliver the best value and innovation to support clients’ missions.
Online access to contract ordering information, terms and conditions, up-to-date pricing, and the option to create an electronic delivery order are available through GSA Advantage!®, located at http:///www.gsaadvantage.gov.

Other Transactions are legally binding instruments that may be used to engage industry and academia for a broad range of research and prototyping activities. Other Transactions are not standard procurement contracts, grants, or cooperative agreements. As such, they are generally not subject to the federal laws and regulations that apply to government procurement contracts. IEM is a member of multiple Other Transaction Consortia, consortia of companies interested in working within a given subject area.
A White Paper is the initial step in the process to obtain a project award. When the Government identifies a need/requirement and only when funding is available for that need, the Government issues a Request for White Papers (RWP) to the consortium. The consortium then releases the RWP to its membership. RWPs contain the Government requirement, outlined in a Statement of Need, along with instructions and template to be used for White Paper submittals. White Papers detail a member’s proposed solution to the Government’s requirement(s). Members may prepare and submit White Papers individually or as part of a collaborative team. The consortium works with members to ensure completeness and compliance with the terms of the RWP and then forwards the finalized White Papers directly to the Government for evaluation. Based on its evaluation of the White Paper(s), the Government selects the best-value white paper(s), develops a Statement of Work and issues a Request for Project Proposal to the selected member(s). The selected member(s) then prepares a proposal and submits it to the Government through the consortium management firm for subsequent negotiation, if necessary, and award.
