Questions & Answers (Q&A)

The purpose of this Amendment is to provide responses to questions received by the question submission cutoff date and time. No other Q&A will be provided under this RFQ.

QUESTION 1

Could you please provide us with the incumbent info (the company who printed it last time) eg their name, and contract number for the last award?

RESPONSE 1

There is no incumbent for wayside exhibits and panels for PEFO. The current requirement is to reprint existing designs provided by NPS. Such actions are routinely competed across NPS parks by posting the solicitation on SAM.gov as this is a commercially available service. There are a variety of vendors over the years who have provided these services to NPS.

QUESTION 2

Would it be possible to extend the project completion date to at least February 2025 to allow for the proper graphic proofing process and adequate time for panel production?

RESPONSE 2

The schedule is now revised, as shown on the RFQ SF18, from 10/15/2024 (CLIN 00010) for the proofs and 12/15/2024 (CLIN 00020) for final delivery to the following: NLT 11/30/2024 (CLIN 00010) for proofs and NLT 3/31/2025 (CLIN 00020) for final delivery.

Please also note that the government procurement writing system will require a date range in the overall awarded period of performance such that adequate time is included for completion and invoicing requirements. However, actual delivery for this requirement will be as stated above for CLINs 00010 and

00020. Delivery details will be made through the Park Point of Contact identified in the award document.

QUESTION 3

Is it acceptable to outsource all or part of the fabrication?

RESPONSE 3

Yes.

QUESTION 4

Custom high pressure laminate color samples, 8” x 10” images cropped section from full sized panels with the same finish as the final product: how many samples are required?

RESPONSE 4

One sample for each panel.

QUESTION 5

Is NAICS code 339950 - Sign Manufacturing, required to be considered for award?

RESPONSE 5

No, not specifically. However, any vendor that does not list the solicitation NAICS code 339950 in their

SAM.gov profile must certify in their response that they comply with the size standard of NAICS 339950, which is 500 employees.

Amendment 0001 - 140P1524Q0074 Page 4 of 5

QUESTION 6

(Requirement section)

If the government provides the designed panel files as Adobe Illustrator files, will you be providing packaged files that include any live fonts and linked images? Or will all images be embedded and type outlined within the AI files?

RESPONSE 6

We will work with the printer to package files the way they prefer.

QUESTION 7

(Specifications section – Signs)

Calls for High Pressure Laminate (HPL) panels. Is a panel material of equal quality acceptable like

Fiberglass Embedded or Gel Coat Laminate?

RESPONSE 7

Only HPL is acceptable.

QUESTION 8

(Specifications section – Signs)

For the 24”h x 48”w, 24”h x 24”w, and the 36”h x 36”w panels, they all spec NPS Cantilever frame mounting. Is that saying that there are already frames in place for these panels or are you needing frames for these as well? These sizes are not spec’d in the Pedestals section below.

RESPONSE 8

We will not need these frames to be fabricated.

QUESTION 9

(Specifications section – Pedestals)

Each frame style calls for 2”x4” posts when 2”x3” is standard for NPS frames. Are 2”x3” posts acceptable?

RESPONSE 9

The NPS standard is acceptable.

QUESTION 10

(Specifications section – Pedestals)

Medium brown powder coat is defined in these specifications. Are you looking for NPS Brown or NPS

Dark Brown or another identifiable color to match to?

RESPONSE 10

NPS brown.

QUESTION 11

(Specifications section - Pedestals)

For item iii. - It is calling for a 72”w cantilever. Are we allowed to add a third post for support? Do we need a third post for support?

RESPONSE 11

Yes, if the fabricator deems it necessary.

Amendment 0001 - 140P1524Q0074 Page 5 of 5

QUESTION 12

(Submittals section)

Do you need 8”x10” color samples for each unique panel art? Or do you only need to see a certain amount? If only a small quantity, are you looking for specific files to be used or a general grouping?

RESPONSE 12

A sample panel for each.
