Amendment 003 Department of the Treasury, Bureau of the Fiscal Service

Division of Procurement

DATE: October 16, 2024

FROM: Kaitlyn Eaton, Contract Specialist

SUBJECT: RFQ: 20342325Q00002 – AFRH-G Dental Supplies and Equipment

Amendment 003

The purposes of this amendment are:

1. To provide the Government’s answer to vendor questions.

2. To provide an updated Performance Work Statement (PWS) and Attachment A – Dental

Supply List.

3. To extend the solicitation to Tuesday, October 22nd at 10:00am ET.

Please find vendor submitted questions below with the Government’s response to the questions.

1. Answer to question #2 states that currently everything is being purchased from Benco & Henry Schein. Answer to question #11 states that the vendor must be eligible to make purchases on Benco & Henry Schein. Since purchases were being made from both of the above companies, why does the list of items contain Patterson catalog numbers and not Benco /HS#s? Do you have the list with Benco/HS#s?

The Government Response:

It is not a requirement to purchase items from Benco or Henry Schein. Attachment A – Dental Supply List has been updated to remove the brand/manufacturer part numbers. The requirement is to be able to provide all items on the Dental Supply List. Please use it for reference in conducting research.

2. PWS Section 4.1.1 Dental Supply Returns and Credits. This section seems too broad, items purchased would have a shelf life according to industry standards. Can this be reworded to align with common practice?

The Government Response:

PWS Section 4.1.1 has been updated.

3. Windows XP operating system is no longer supported by Microsoft. Is this an actual requirement?

The Government Response:

No, PWS Section 4.2.1 has been updated.

4. There are 1700+ line items in the Solicitation Notice, but the “Updated Attachment A - Dental Supply List" has 700+ Line items. Are we to submit quotes on the “Updated Attachment A - Dental Supply List” or the original 1700+ Line Items?

The Government Response:

Quotes are to be submitted using the updated Attachment A.

5. Is the quote supposed to be for just a base year or base plus option years?

The Government Response:

The quote is expected to be for a base and four option periods.

6. Does our SAM profile need to contain NAICS 339114?

The Government Response:

Market research was performed and NAICS 339114 was determined to be the most appropriate for this total small business set-aside solicitation. We cannot advise what NAICS codes a vendor/contractor lists within their SAM profile.

7. Can the solicitation be extended?

The Government Response:

Extension until 10/22/2024 at 10:00am ET is being provided.
