SF 30 Continuation Page

A. This modification incorporates the following changes:

1. Provide answers to the following questions:

VENDOR QUESTION GOVERNMENT RESPONSE

1. Could you confirm the preferred brand or manufacturer of the Optical Encoders?

These are custom manufactured to the specifications and are not brand name specific.

2. Could you confirm the quantity if a company has already been approved for first article testing (FAT) per Note 1 of the pricing schedule: “Offerors that have previously received first article acceptance from the ROC for these optical encoders shall propose only the unit price for a quantity of 40 production units in Ordering Period 1”

Yes, the quantity is 40 production units if a company has been approved for first article testing (FAT) for Ordering Period 1.

3. Historically NOAA has purchased Farrand Opto Encoders PN 20890-1. We would like to propose replacing the legacy components supporting the output interface and incorporate a microprocessor and/or programmable logic that would make this PN more manufacturable and increase reliability. Are we at liberty to incorporate these changes?

Your company can incorporate those proposed changes into your Technical Approach (for the 1st article test proposal), but the Government is unable to guarantee those changes will actually work in the system and may not be viable until we test them.

4. Can you provide clarification regarding the disparity between the timing diagram on page 3 of the Statement of Work (SOW) and timing diagram on page 7 of PN Drawing 14636-5017?

The correct specifications for the timing diagram are on page 3 of the SOW. Drawing 14636-5017 will be updated in the near future.

2. Except for the changes made herein all other terms, conditions and provisions of the solicitation remain unchanged.
