About this file

This is an Amendment to Solicitation/Modification of Contract (SF 30 form) for solicitation 36C24426Q0687, issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office 4 (Coatesville VAMC) for V129--Autopsy Transportation services for VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System. The amendment's primary purpose is to address Question Set 1 from offerors and post an updated Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) document that must be used in RFQ responses.

The Questions and Answers Set 1 clarifies key submission requirements and evaluation criteria. Notably, this is identified as a new contract with no incumbent or previous contract history. Offerors must complete only items 12, 17, and 30 on the SF1449 form, as specified in section E.1 Instructions to Offerors. Past performance submissions may be submitted as a three to four-page questionnaire and can reference work performed under informal arrangements such as Memos of Understanding with price sheets, in addition to formal contracts. Past performance evaluator information should be included in signature blocks, and quality and satisfaction ratings may be attached either to the questionnaire or to the quotation package with appropriate cross-references. The updated BAA document (D4 Local BAA Sept 2024) supersedes previous versions, including any Philadelphia-based references, and must be utilized for all RFQ submissions. Offerors are required to acknowledge receipt of this amendment prior to the deadline specified in the solicitation.

QA Set 1

Q1. Is there any incumbent/recompete or this is a brand-new project? If yes, could you please provide us with their award number or even if the customer bought similar services in the past.

A1. This is a new contract. There is no previous contract for this requirement.

Q2. Instructions at the top of the fill in portion on page 1 of the application suggest to fill out items, 12,17,23,24,30. On the specific instructions (section E) and also aligning with the highlighted portions - only 12, 17, and 30 are required. Assumption because item B is a culmination of what would be in those missing fields.

A2. Please reference E.1 Instructions to Offerors B. Specific Instructions regarding the SF1449.

Q3. Past performance questionnaire:

What is “Company/Division name”? Is that the name of my company (the offeror) A3.1 Yes, this is the Offeror. The Evaluator is to complete their information in the signature block at the bottom.

If my clients/customers are supposed to email you them directly, is there anything that is on this document that will link their performance review to mine?

A3.2 Yes, A. Reference History…references the Offeror’s History & Contact Information.

How do I indicate that “the work was performed as prime” - we don’t have a written contract but we do give them a price sheet and limits of liability if they choose to use our services.

A3.3 If you do not have a contract but more of a Memo of Understanding with a price sheet, your Past Performance can still be used. Please explain in the question boxes below or where applicable.

The past performance questionnaire is 3 pages already, are we supposed to use that as our template or just ensure all of the key points are covered.

A3.4 E.1 Instructions to Offerors B, 2. Part II Past Performance Information states 4 pages.

Is the quality and satisfaction rating supposed to be attached to the questionnaire?

A3.5 Yes, this information can be attached to the questionnaire or attached to your quotation package and reference the expected Past Performance submitting.

Is the BAA form online the correct document (it states Philadelphia which was my concern) A3.6 Attached is an updated BAA. Please use this document for your RFQ submission.

See attached document: D4 Local BAA Sept 2024.
