QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS TO SOLICITATION 36C25019Q0016

1. If not, is there a way to coordinate a visit? A site visit will take place on October 19, 2018 at 10:00 am at the VAMC atrium, lobby area: 10701 East Blvd Cleveland, Ohio 44106. The site visit will begin at 10:00 am so please arrive by 10am.

2. Is there any information available on the count of curtains that will be taken each time? Yes, that was provided in the solicitation. We are required to change the curtains quarterly, accept when we have cases of C-Diff or terminally cleaned rooms, the curtains are changed each time. That last part of it is being taken care separately, and it is not part of this solicitation.

3. Are there replacement curtains onsite while the rotation is being serviced? All of the CBOCs and the main campus sites have two sets. Because of space the second set is required to be stored at the vendor’s site.

4. Is there any information on whether the curtains call for Dry Cleaning or Laundering Service? These are privacy curtains, and they are laundered.

5. Are the curtains attached via rings? Hooks.

6. If we are to supply curtains, is there specifications on what is currently in use? All curtains are supplied by the medical center, so they meet all specifications needed

7. Does the Pre-solicitation posted as solicitation number 36C25019Q0016 on FBO contain requirements similar to a existing contract or will this be a new requirement? This is to an existing contract. The current Contract Number is VA250-17-C-0011 (Coit Services of Ohio)

8. Are there any specifications (manufacturer, model no) available for the hooks being used to hang the curtains? Our buildings vary in age, from old to the newest ones. There-fore our current hooks vary as well. Most of it is standard hook for loop curtains
