QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

1. We are a SDVOSB and would like to sub out a portion of this contract to Shred-it, a large business. At least 50% of the total contract dollars will remain with us, the concern. Would the Limitations on Subcontracting allow us to sub out the remaining contract dollars to a large business such as Shred-it?

Answer: Please see Limitation on Subcontracting Rules | SDVOSBLAW www.sdvosblaw.com/sba-limitation-on-subcontracting-rules

2. The Statement of Work describes, “… approximately 200-250 top-loaded locked security waste containers… container size will be from 27 to 95-gallon capacity…" Can we receive a breakdown of approximately how many containers are needed for each location, the sizes that are needed for each location, and the frequency of service? This will allow for a more accurate quote to the Government.

Answer: 250 count. With all the construction and expansions, the locations and volume is ever changing.

3. The SOW describes that the COD should list the amount of shredded waste in number of containers and pounds shredded. The trucks do not have scales on board. Would it be acceptable to list the number of containers serviced and estimate the weight?

Answer: We have to have the exact weight and container count for the Certificate of Destructions. This cannot be an estimate.

4. In the solicitation under General Information the response date is August 27th and in paragraph (xx) Submission of Offers it is listed as 31 August 2018 by 1600 EST. I just want to confirm that the 31st is indeed the correct response date/time.

Answer: Response date is August 31st

5. Is there a breakdown of the number/types of bins in each building and the frequency they are serviced?
