AMENDMENT TWO (2) TO RFQ #16-100-SOL-00004 - Emergency Prescription Assistance Program (EPAP) - Emergency Claims Adjudication

QUESTION (1): Part I – Technical Quotation – indicates that the section should not exceed 20 pages.

However, under the Evaluation Process – each of the “factors’ to be included in the Technical Quotation have maximum page limits, which tally to 30 pages. Information on past performance is also required in the Technical Quotation section and bidders are also instructed to include a section entitled “Mandatory Criteria”. These two additional components will put the page count over 30. Will the Agency please clarify the page limits for the Technical Quotation, what is included in those limits, and what is not?

RESPONSE (1): The 20 page limit applies to the Technical Quotation itself, not the overall submission.

Attachments and/or Appendices are not included in the page count. Please disregard the page limits mentioned any other place within the Solicitiation.

QUESTION (2): Will the Agency please provide Attachment 3 in Excel format?

RESPONSE (2): Attachment Three has already been provided in MS Excel format when Amendment One was posted.

QUESTION (3): On Attachment 2: Past Performance Questionnaire, please clarify the 1 – 10 ranking.

RESPONSE (3): Regarding the Past Performance Questionnaire, 10 is the best/most positive within the ranking scale of 1 – 10.
