Solicitation 36C26122Q0866 Questions and Answers

1. Pg 6, Section C, Paragraph 8, it states “Denture teeth will be provided”, the Price List (excel file) it is asking for a price (for example see line 0023), can you clarify if you would like a price provided for these product? If the teeth will be provided then I would think no price would be needed. This type of product appears 269 times on the Price List.

0. The VA will not be providing the denture teeth that will be provide by the dental lab

i. However does have to be premium IPN or equivalent

ii. They can add the price of the denture teeth

0. For example – the cost of a complete denture (per arch) – (include the cost of the premium IPN denture teeth)

0. Cost of denture teeth (per tooth for the 1st tooth; then the cost for each addl tooth – for repairs or adding teeth to existing partial

1. For Product 0003, “Upper Case (Vitallium) Framework”, is this for the frame price only or would it also include saddles, teeth, baseplate and custom tray?

0. I believe this is for the framework itself

0. There is a cost for wax rims with framework or framework with teeth (would be the cost of framework + denture teeth)

1. Item 0017, “Custom Abutments for Implants”, is there a preferred manufacture that would be requested? Genuine OEM or 3rd party?

0. At this time our VA places primarily BioHorizons implants, we also have Nobel Bio Care and may also begin placing Straumann implant system

i. So, it would be for implant systems: BioHorizons, Nobel Biocare, Straumann

1. Item 0018, “Regular Abutment for Implants”, can you provide more detail on this product? Would this be a prepable abutment?

0. Non-custom abutment

0. Prepable abutment, yes

0. If it is not specified – UCLA abutment would be included under this option

1. For Items 0014, 0015, 0019, these items require gold alloy. Do you want the alloy to be billed separately (lower priced product) or included in the product price (higher priced product)?

0. Included in the product price – to simplify the billing.

1. If the clinic requests a product that is not on the product list of contract pricing. Is it okay for us to manufacture and to bill at our stand fee?

1. A modification will have to be completed for the base IDIQ and the delivery order to add items to the price lists if needed.

1. Does the clause 852.215–70, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned and Veteran-Owned Small Business Evaluation Factors on page 191 of the RFP exclude non- SDVOSB and VOSB businesses from participation in 36C26122Q0866 Las Vegas VAMC Dental Prostheses 5 YR IDIQ?

2. This is a SMALL BUSINESS SET ASIDE. This clause does not exclude non-SDVOSB and VOSB businesses from participation.

1. Do offerors need to submit pricing on Section B, pages 23-181 from the RFP in addition to the Excel price list, or just submit the Excel price list?

3. Pricing must be submitted on the Excel price list. It’s not required to fill out the price/cost schedule on page 23-181.
