The purpose of this amendment to Request for Quote (RFQ) 36C24819Q0539 is to provide the Governments response to Requests for Information/Questions from industry.

See page two (2) for Questions and Answers.

1. I am wondering if alternate products of equal or higher quality to those listed on the solicitation are allowed? In other words, is it required that the products called out on the solicitation are used for the new systems being installed?

Yes. No. Refer to the solicitation indicating the Governments intent, if necessary, to accept Brand Name or Equal Items. Quoters need to be found responsive to the solicitation (See Section E).

2. We will need the current maintenance schedules for filter changes and the OIM's.

Please refer to the solicitation as the intent is for a contractor to provide services (turn-key) taking full responsibility of equipment inclusive of their own set maintenance schedules for filter changes per the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) for the proper intended performance of the equipment and water purification services for sterile processing rendered. The Government cannot provide proprietary contractor information (OIM’s).
