This document is a Vendor Questions and Answers (Q&A) file for a USDA Forest Service solicitation (12444525Q0002) for janitorial services at the Bedford, Indiana Hoosier National Forest office. The document, published on April 7, 2025 and amended on April 15, 2025, contains four vendor questions addressing payment schedules, previous contract information, site visit coordination, and submission process details. The government responses are primarily referential, directing vendors to review the original Request for Quote (RFQ) document for specific information.

Key details include the previous contract (number 1252B120P0001) held by contractor Rebecka Taft, with the government suggesting vendors consult www.fpds.gov for additional contract history. The solicitation is a small business set-aside with NAICS code 561720 and a size standard of $22.0 million, anticipating one firm fixed-price contract award. The government point of contact is Michael J. Wheelock, and vendors are required to be actively registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) to be considered for award.
