About this file
This is a Vendor Questions and Responses document for Solicitation 1305M226Q0229 issued by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) under the Department of Commerce. The document addresses two vendor inquiries related to the procurement of a Hawaii Class II Research Vessel for the Office of National Marine Sanctuaries.
Amendment 0001 extended the solicitation closing date to September 25, 2026, at 12:00 PM Eastern Time and the deadline for submitting questions to September 15, 2026, at 12:00 PM Eastern Time. The primary clarification pertains to equipment requirements, specifically addressing the Autopilot specification. The base offer includes one Autopilot for installation in the base vessel. Optional Item Number 0004, which specifies a second Autopilot station, is conditional and would only be required if the Government selects Optional Item Number 0003 for a Flybridge Operating Station. This clarification establishes that the additional Autopilot is not a standalone requirement but rather a dependent option contingent upon acceptance of the Flybridge upgrade.

Vendor Questions and Responses
Question 1: Can the offer due date be extended?
Response 1: Amendment 0001 extends the closing date of the solicitation to September 25th at 12:00 PM ET and extends the deadline to submit questions to September 15th at 12:00 PM ET.
Question 2: Item Number 0004 states that “the Contractor shall provide an Autopilot.” The base offer includes an Autopilot within the required equipment listing and is intended to install in the base vessel. Can it be assumed that the additional Autopilot callout under this item an option to install in the Fly Bridge if the Govt chooses to include/select that option?
Response 2: Yes, the callout in Optional Item Number 0004 for a second Autopilot station would only be required if the Government also accepts Optional Item Number 0003 for a “Flybridge Operating Station.”
