2It is our understanding that we need to provide only one contract/project reference under past performance questionnaire. Please confirm.See Section 9.9.1.3 Volume III – Past Performance, under Recent/relevant, it indicates 3.
3Pricing template (B08 SOL Att A-Pricing.xlsx, "BPA Pricing" worksheet) has a 2% increase from year-to-year. Can it be changed to 4% in light of recent inflation increases?Yes, please feel free to alter as you feel necessary pursuant to your company's pricing situation.
4It is our understanding that the worksheet "Task Order 1 Pricing" (B08 SOL Att A-Pricing.xlsx) is government's commitment towards the first task order. Please confirm our understanding.Yes, it is the Government's intent to award the first Task Order. Due to system limitations, it will not be simultaneous. However, it is anticipated to be awarded as soon after the IDIQ award as possible.
5Is there an incumbent?No.
6For the Senior Actuary, can we substitute some number of additional years of relevant actuarial experience for the FSA?No, the FSA credential is preferred.
7Does the Senior Actuary need to be the same person for each task order or may we submit more than one Senior Actuary meeting the qualifications?No, there can be multiple senior actuaries for each task order. But the expected hours will be split among the actuaries. However, only one of the actuaries can be designated as the Key Personnel.
8Does the Actuarial Analyst need to be the same person for each task order, or will we be permitted to use different individuals on different task orders provided the personnel meet the qualifications?Actuarial analyst can be different for each task order as long as the qualifications are met.
9We see in 9.9.2.2 Volume VI – Price – Task Order 1, it is noted that “Contractor shall use established hours”. We then see in Attachment A (B08 SOL Att A – Pricing.xls) that 100 hours are entered for the Senior Actuary and 50 hours are entered for the Actuary Analyst. Should we understand this to mean that the “established hours” are fixed at 100 and 50 for the Senior Actuary and the Actuary Analyst, respectively?Yes.

ASA, EA, with 30+ years of experience FSA, EA with 10 years of experience

Are we able to include these individuals with a third labor category of "Actuary" but not "Senior Actuary"? We do not anticipate the need for other labor categories at this point.
