The purpose of this Amendment is to Answer Questions that were Submitted by Contractors who have Interest In this Solicitation for Home Oxygen Services.

Malcolm Davis Contracting Officer

VA-VHA-2019-8891VDD96

CONTINUATION PAGE

Question#1 Given the tight turn around for the proposal response as well as the 20 June Federal Holiday- Are recent previously filled out Past Performance Questionnaires acceptable to support evidence of Past Performance?

Question#1 Answer- Yes

Question#2 I noticed the quantities throughout the contract appear to be the same. Does the Government anticipate an increase or decrease in patient population due to current demographic trends?

Question#2 Answer- Fiscal Year 2021 to 2022 the patient population went from 610 to 521, so we expect the numbers to fluctuate up and down for the term of the contract.

Question#3 For CLINs 0010, 1010, 2010, 3010, 4010:

a. It currently says the unit of measure is “Each.” Does the Government mean pounds (LBS)?

Question#3 Answer- Yes, the Government means pounds (LBS).

Question#4 b. Which is correct? The narrative states that there is an estimated 12,000 pounds per month usage for 144,00 pounds but the narrative calculation there is a different amount, 9,500-pound value given for 114,000 pounds.

Question#4 Answer- 9,500 pounds value for 114,000 pounds is the correct amount.

Question#5 For Option Year (CLINS 1001-1034, 2001-2034, 3001-3034, 4001-4034), it appears you all have copied the same dates. Should it read as follows?

a. Base Year July 4, 2022, to July 3, 2023

b. Option Year 1 July 4, 2023, to July 3, 2024

c. Option Year 2 July 4, 2024, to July 3, 2025

d. Option Year 3 July 4, 2025, to July 3, 2026

e. Option Year 4 July 4, 2026, to July 3, 2027

Question#5 Answer- Yes

Question#6 CLINS 0031, 1031, 2031, 3031, and 4031 units of measure should probably be “ Each” and not “Hour”.

Question#6 Answer: Yes, they are each not Hour.
