The purpose of this amendment is to provide responses to industry questions and extend the quotation due date.

A. The following questions and answers are provided:

QUESTION 1. The solicitation seems to indicate that there is an existing contract – we request information regarding the contract number, awardee, and amount of award. Also, whether this solicitation is for the same scope of effort.

ANSWER 1. The previous contract has expired. However, the following information is provided.

Contract number: VA101V-17-P-0517 Awardee: FLEET ANALYTICS, LLC Total contract amount (original plus all modifications): $12,117.00

QUESTION 2: Where is the source of the data requested for maintenance, fuel consumption, and emissions data? Is the source a known location of the diagnostic data bus resident on each vehicle or is this data derived from the external hardware the contractor is required to install?

ANSWER 2: This is in reference to the standard information pulled from the vehicles on board computer. This should be the normal industry standard vehicle maintenance only, which would show on the vehicle dash notification.

QUESTION 3: What exactly is meant by emissions data? Is this derived from a specific common OBD diagnostic data bus location common to all of the vehicles in the fleet? If so will the specific addresses on the diagnostic bus be provided?

ANSWER 3: Standard data from the vehicle, nothing more than what it would normally provide.

QUESTION 4: What specific characteristics of maintenance are to be recorded? Oil changes, tire changes, brake changes, etc? Is this data to be entered by a service repair professional into the on-board contractor provided hardware at the point of maintenance or can the successful solution allow this data to be entered via a web based interface?

ANSWER 4: The most prevalent industry standard for tracking the maintenance records may be used.

QUESTION 5: Is fuel consumption derived from a diagnostic data bus location (aka CAN PID location or equivalent) or is it derived based off GPS speed and/or some combination or extrapolation outside a diagnostic data bus element based on sensors or algorithms in the contractor supplied hardware?

ANSWER 5: The most prevalent industry standard for tracking fuel consumption may be used.

QUESTION 6: Also, the solicitation states that the “contractor is required to establish installation locations and available dates/times no less than two weeks prior to the anticipated installation date”. Our solution would have us travel to each of the regional office locations specified in the solicitation to do the installation and training – request that this requirement to establish installation locations be removed.

ANSWER 6: Annual vehicle changes shall occur at the location of each vehicle. Employees at this Regional office are not permitted to travel for module change out. As a reminder for this CLIN “Quantity is estimate only. This CLIN represents the quantity estimated to be ordered during the period of performance. Actual quantities may vary, but may not exceed the stated quantity without a modification.”

QUESTION 7. We would also like to know the make, model, year of the Atlanta based fleet.

ANSWER 7.

B. The quotation due date is hereby changed to “no later than March 19, 2019 by 12:00 PM EST.”

C. No other changes
