Attachment 9. National Aircraft Services RFP Questions and Answers Rev 20260203.xlsx

This is a Questions and Answers document for RFP Solicitation No. 15M50026QA4400001 (National Aircraft Services) issued by the U.S. Marshals Service. The document clarifies five key points from the original solicitation. Small businesses may subcontract to qualified aviation firms but must retain at least 50% of contract costs for personnel under FAR 52.219.14. The stated 300% contract maximum represents a single cumulative ceiling applicable across the entire Base Period and all Option Periods combined, with all CLIN orders applied against this ceiling. Both the Contracting Officer (CO) and Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) may approve travel requests. An administrative correction clarifies that Attachment #3 contains 7 pages rather than 8, as previously stated.

For relocation services pricing, contractors must propose fully-burdened fixed daily rates for each Relocation CLIN, with the exception of CLINs -002 (Travel), -008 (Aircraft Fuel for Relocation), and -009 (Relocation Misc.). The RFP was amended to add CLIN -008 Aircraft Fuel for Relocation to reduce pricing variability within the Firm Fixed Price relocation CLINs. CLIN -008 will be utilized for reimbursement of actual aircraft fuel expenses incurred during relocation operations, allowing contractors to recover actual fuel costs separately from the fixed daily rates rather than bundling them into the overall rate structure.
