B09_Amendment_0001_Answers_to_RFIs_0001.docx

This file is an Amendment containing Requests for Information (RFI) and responses issued by the National Park Service Intermountain Region for solicitation 140P1326Q0026 on May 13, 2026. The amendment addresses a single RFI question regarding the nature of the requirement and historical context for hazardous tree mitigation services at Rock Creek Park.

The contracting officer clarified that the FY26 Cyclic Hazardous Tree Maintenance Services requirement is new for fiscal year 2026. However, the park has previously procured similar services through a GSA vehicle under task order number 140P2125F0218, indicating that comparable work has been performed historically. This is neither an incumbent recompete nor a brand-new service area, but rather a new annual requirement for ongoing hazardous tree mitigation activities. The response provides potential contractors with context that prior service delivery models exist, allowing them to reference past performance and understand the nature of work expected under this solicitation.
