Daniel Spaulding Contracting Officer

This amendment is to address questions with responses. No changes are being made to the solicitation.

1. The solicitation is written as a set-aside for SDVOSB. We as one of the few actual elevator firms who are VOSB, I’m assuming being on the said tier level (SDVOSB), our bid will not be accepted? Meaning, can we VOSB submit a bid per the subjected solicitation?

a. What we have been seeing and fighting for many years, the VA’s, pass-throughs and the monopoly that others (Elevated/Metro/ESI) have on the SDVOSB sector, in particular VAMC’s. We VOSB who are capable and not a pass-through such as those who will bid alongside the above mentioned firm, have the experience and actual Vertical Transportation background that others don’t possess. We would like to know and hope you can advise before we begin the process of putting the time and effort in submitting our proposals.

Response: The solicitation is 100% set-aside for SDVOSBs (Service Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business). SDVOSB and VOSB are separate socioeconomic categories. Under agency regulation, a VOSB (veteran owned small business) is not the same as a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB). A VOSB would not be eligible for award under this solicitation.

2. Is there any way we are able to see the last company and bidding price on Elevator maintenance and service for VAMC in Fayetteville, NC

Response: GS06Q17BQDS215/36C24619F0159, Panacea Group, LLC, Total Award $636,007.28.

3. I’m writing today to request a change in the NAICS from 238290 to 561210.

Response: It was determined prior to release of the solicitation that NAICS 238290 is the appropriate NAICS code for elevator maintenance services.
