Questions and Responses

1. Is shipping supposed to be included in the price? Since there are several locations, shipping costs will vary, and we weren’t sure if there was some ability to provide pricing based upon location. If there is not, we would need to provide the cost of the product plus the cost to ship to the furthest location and that may not be cost effective for your offices. Yes, shipping is to be included.

2. In the solicitation, it states several times that delivery is required within 30 days.

Is there a minimum/maximum order quantity? It would be difficult to assure compliance with the 30-day delivery period, if we have no idea of what the quantity might be and some of these line items might require a longer lead time if large quantities were needed. The delivery period can be negotiated.

3. Parts of the solicitation specify that these products would be shipped CONUS whereas other documents mention OCONUS? Please clarify which it is. It is both

CONUS and OCONUS

4. Attachment A - Line 66 - Clin 57 - Dell 7080 computer mentioned in the description has been discontinued and replaced with a Dell 7010. During the last Contract period we needed to change the Dell model # on 3 occasions due to spec changes by OI&T or Dell EOL. Recommending changing description to "Dell or HP VA approved MFF computers". Attachment A has been updated

5. Attachment G – What is the actual deadline for the Past Performance Questionnaires? It currently has a response date of May 22, 2024. The response date has been updated to reflect August 12, 2024 11:59am

6. Attachment G - Does the government send the Past Performance Questionnaires directly to the VA POCs listed, or should they be returned to the offeror, who then submits to the VA. The government sends the Past Performance Questionnaires directly to the VA POCs listed.

7. Attachment G - Must the questionnaires only go to a Contract Officer or Program Manager that we list in Attachment F: Past Performance Reference? Or can they go to any government personnel with direct knowledge of the offeror’s performance such as the end-user? It can go to a Contracting Officer, Contract Specialist, Contracting Officer Representative (COR), or Program Manager. They can coordinate with the end-user to complete the PPQ.
