About this file
This document is a Questions and Answers (Q&A) response for a federal contract solicitation regarding deposition and grand jury proceeding transcription services.
The current contract (15JA0521D00000172) covers deposition transcription and grand jury proceeding transcription services, with the contracting agency maintaining the option to split awards between two contractors—one for grand jury proceedings and one for depositions. All depositions and grand jury proceedings are transcribed, though not all are ordered; the government cannot provide historical transcription percentages or estimates. The primary location for depositions is Sioux Falls, with other locations possible, though no historical data exists regarding the frequency or common locations of out-of-area depositions. Remote depositions are anticipated at levels specified in the Contract Line Item (CLIN) estimates. The government corrected a unit of measure error in CLIN 0007 (Cancellation Fee) from "PA" (page) to "EA" (each) and indicated the proposal due date may be extended if necessary to allow offerors adequate time to incorporate Q&A responses into their proposals. Offerors are directed to consult FPDS record 15JA0521D00000172 for current contractor identification, contract number, and contract value information.
