Why does LH: Labor-Hour matter?

A variation of a time-and-materials contract differing only in that materials are not supplied by the contractor. Payment is based on fixed hourly rates for direct labor hours at specified categories.

FAR Reference

FAR 16.602

Contractor Risk

Moderate

When to Use LH

Appropriate when the work is primarily labor with no significant materials component. Like T&M, requires a D&F that no other contract type is suitable.

Advantages and Disadvantages

Advantages: Simple pricing for labor-only efforts, flexible scope. Disadvantages: Same cost control concerns as T&M, requires close government monitoring of labor hours.
