Question # 8: P. 76 and Attachment D Price Schedule. o Could you please provide a little more guidance for the task order tab – what should be entered into column G for quantity? It isn’t clear what the unit of measure is for that column.

o Also, would you please confirm that nothing needs to be entered into the BOA Unit Pricing tab? If this is an incorrect interpretation, please elaborate on anything that should be entered in this tab.

Answer # 8: Regarding Attachment D Price Schedule - Column G will be different/based off of each vendor's capabilities. Regarding BPA Unit Pricing - this Tab was included for the pricing of forthcoming Task Orders. BPA Unit Pricing Tab Column D "Unit Price Per Truck" is pulled to Task Order Tab Column H "Unit Price Per Truck". So vendor's pricing on BPA Unit Pricing Tab will be set pricing for future Task Orders.

Question # 12: The 96g bin is easier to price at a fixed rate for the government and the contractor. For example we plan on delivering (15) 96g bins to fill with PII.

When we arrive to shred the (15) your staff can be filling the empties again to do another 15 for a total of 30 bins shredded that day.

At this point the truck has potentially 4.5 tons or 9000 pounds of material, however, we still have to weigh the material at the scales to get the weight.

For example ($100 x 30 tips = $3,000)

Weight is not a good weight of measure when pricing the government.

Answer # 12: The tonnage is how the Government will get approximations of vendor's truck capacity. The Government needs to know how much a vendor's trucks weighs for future Task Orders. This will assist in getting the approximate amount of what needs to be included on future Task Orders. The Government needs approximate tonnage of a vendor's truck capacity to be able to use these calculations in future Task Orders.
