Rico Johnson Contracting Officer Questions and Answers 36C26123Q0535

Questions:

RFI 1. Page 8 of 74, 9.1, states that, “Immediately after contract award and no later than 30-days thereafter, the Contractor and the Government shall conduct a thorough inspection of the inventory (as detailed in Attachment A) and develop a list of existing deficiencies and required corrective actions”. This contract encompasses three separate VA locations and a total of 39 separate chillers. Please clarify if the VA means inspection and development of a list of existing deficiencies must begin within 30-days or that it must be completed within 30-days.

RFI 2. If the VA means inspection and development of a list of existing deficiencies shall be completed within 30-days, could the VA extend this period to 90 days after award?

RFI 3. If the VA did means inspection and development of a list of existing deficiencies shall begin within 30-days of award, how long will contractor have to complete this process?

RFI 4. Page 10 of 74, states, “The Contractor shall price labor hours within the price quoted in CLIN 1 in Section B, SUPPLIES OR SERVICES AND PRICES”. We do not see where contractor is to price labor hours, could the VA clarify where contractor is to provide this pricing?
