SRR NETS 95 PERCENT OF FY 2013 AWARD FEE

Savannah River liquid waste contractor Savannah River Remediation earned 95 percent of its total available award fee in Fiscal Year 2013, or about $29.7 million out of $31.4 million available. “SRR has provided safe, timely, and cost-effective management and execution of the Liquid Waste program at the U.S. Department of Energy Savannah River site in an excellent manner,” a Dec. 19 letter from DOE to the contractor released yesterday said. “The contractor has exceeded almost all of the significant performance-based incentive criteria and has met overall cost, schedule and technical performance requirements of the contract in the aggregate as defined and measured against the Performance Evaluation Management Plan for the evaluation period.”

DOE did note some opportunities for improvement, including issues with conduct of engineering and an increasing maintenance backlog. “Measured in terms of significance, the contractor’s positive performance far outweighed the opportunities for improvement. The contractor’s management clearly and continuously demonstrates quality-driven program management with a focus toward safe and optimized performance,” the letter states.
