Questions and Answers
Q1: Is the solicitation looking for the steel structure as verbally described only or the thick overhang roof structure on top of the steel structure as well as depicted in the rendering on the top of page 5?
A1: Only the steel container, no overhang roof on top of the container is required.
Q2: Placing is mentioned but no digging requirement is found in the SOW. Does this mean, places where these containers will be placed are already prepared/dugout?
A2: No placement or digging is required. The contractor shall only be required to deliver the shelters to the Ukrainian border (specific location shall be shared after award). The Ukrainian SBGS will install the shelters.
Q3: The technical specs require the overall dimensions to be 6000x2400x2440 mm. A normal 20 x 8 ft shipping container is 6.058 x 2.438 x 2.591. If the original requirements cannot be changed it would require custom built dugouts which increase the cost to the government and make transportation difficult on trucks which are designed to carry 20ft or 40ft containers. If our proposal has the dugouts at the normal 20 ft shipping container specifications will that disqualify us in the bidding process?
A3: Minor deviations in the size, as described in the question, to fit the size of a standard container are permissible.
Q4: Reference the delivery of the shelters, can more than 20 be delivered at once?
A4: Yes. Price quotes shall clearly indicate the proposed accelerated delivery schedule.
