Q&A:

1. The bid said that we cannot use VA network for radio IP connectivity. Does that mean we will need to provide the IP connection and for how long would we be required to supply provide it? Yes, IP connection will be required for the Base plus 4 Option Years. Please provide pricing for the connection service per year of the life of the contract.

1. This question ties into question 1. Should we be quoting for a maintenance contract and if so for how long? This would make it easier for the customer, especially if we are providing the network. Yes, we would need you to provide it for up to 5 years. A Base plus 4 year fixed-firm priced contract will be established at the time of award. Please provide pricing for all option years and total of base plus options at the end.

1. Could we get the flash code off one of the existing radios which is located on the same tag as the model and serial number. Picture located under Q&A.

1. Is this system being replaced? Yes, the current system that is in place now is not meeting the standards and needs of the VA Government. The old system will need to be fully removed and replaced.
