About this file

This document is an amendment to a solicitation for a 5-year Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) single award contract to supply duty, training, and frangible 9mm and .223 caliber ammunition to the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 20.

The amendment provides answers to questions received during the solicitation period and includes a projected estimate of annual ammunition usage, which is not a commitment from the government. The contract will have annual pricing adjustments, with pricing submitted as the offeror's best and final offer. Duty ammunition must be brand name or VA approved. The contract will include delivery to multiple VA health care centers and medical centers within the WSNC catchment area. Packaging requirements specify a case as 1,000 rounds, and FOB shipping is acceptable with no preferred freight carrier.

1. The purpose of this amendment is to answer questions received during the question period and to provide a projected estimate of ammunition numbers needed on an annual basis. This number is not a promise or commitment from the government and is intended for planning purposes only.

2. Section B.2 PRICE/COST SCHEDULE is changed from Quantity: 0.0 and Unit: CS to rea d:

Quantity: 1.0 Unit: EA

Questions:

Q1: - Under section 3.1.2.1, it states that that the contract shall ensure that the commodity delivered is the same or equal to that which is specified in the SOW. However, on section 3.1.2.2 it states that the contractor will provide substitution. Are you referring to the brands named in the RFP or are you referring to a change in the proposed equal too brand if one is proposed by the contractor?

Answer: If the duty ammunition request, i.e. is Speer at the time of the delivery order, the contractor cannot substitute what is requested. The duty ammunition as stated in 3.1.2.1, can only be brand name approved ammunition, which as current, is listed in Section D.

Q2. Is the VA looking for fixed pricing per item for the entire 5 year life of the contract or on a year-to-year basis? I ask because ammunition manufacturing costs can fluctuate over time and was wondering if a price escalation/de-escalation clause could be defined and applied?

Answer: One Firm Fixed Price, Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) Single Award Delivery Order Contract, to supply ammunition for VA Law Enforcement Officers (LEOs) to continue their proficiency and practice of skillsets.

Pricing is based on each year, CLINS 0001 through 0009 are for Ordering Period/Year 1, and so on. Pricing submitted shall be offerors best and final offer.

Q3. It appears the same ammunition is listed under multiple part numbers. Could you please explain that purpose?

Answer: CLINS 0001 to 0009 are for Ordering Period/Year 1, CLINS 2001 to 2009 are for Ordering Period/Year 3. CLINs are structured by each Ordering period to allow offeror to submit best and final offer.

Q4. What sort of packaging is required? For instance, corrugated bulk cartons of 500 or 1000 rnds based on caliber or overpacks of 500 or 1000 rnds with inner boxes of either 20 or 50 rnds depending on caliber?

Answer: This will be determined by the Awarding Delivery Order Contracting Officer. B.1/2.4 Contractor shall ensure that all applicable laws have been complied with in relation to construction, packaging, labeling, registration and transporting.

For purposes of this RFQ a case is 1000 rounds.

Section B.2, Price/Cost Schedule, Unit has been changed to Quantity: 1 and Unit: EA, pricing shall be cost per round.

Q5. How many “Ship To” locations will be included in this contract? Will we ship small quantities to individual VA locations or larger quantities to VA distribution points? Could you please provide the number and addresses of the locations to be fulfilled.

Answer: 8.5 Part III Offeror must be capable of delivery to all facilities within the WSNC catchment area: See Veterans Integrated Service Networks (va.gov) for a list of facilities in VISNs 17, 19, 20, 21, and 22.

Locations will be both VA Health Care Centers and VA Medical Centers.

Q6. I attached a spreadsheet that outlines the multiple items and the required quantity of ammunition per item number. Could you please see attached and complete the quantity amounts by item? For instance: min order quantity, max order quantity, standard order quantity, estimated total contract quantity, and estimated annual usage, per item number. This quantity information will be important in determining both pricing, as well as shipping method(s): small package, palletized LTL, etc.

Answer: See attached projections Q7. What is the expected issue date of the initial purchase order(s)? We will need this for material requirements planning purposes.

Answer: This will be based on date of award and individual facility need. Vendor shall work with Contracting Officer at time of delivery award for dates of delivery.

Q8. Is FOB acceptable shipping terms and does the VA have preferred freight carriers?

Answer: FOB Shipping is acceptable and no preferred freight carrier is specified.
