The purpose of this amendment is to provide questions and answers asked during the solicitation.

1. Clause C.9, VAAR 852.219-75, requires the offeror to certify that it will not pay more than 50 percent of the amount paid by the Government to firms that are not VIP-listed Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses or Veteran-Owned Small Businesses. The posted answers confirm that a prime that is not verified may receive award, and that the limitation may be satisfied through a verified subcontractor.

Please confirm this reading: a prime contractor that is not itself a verified Service- Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business or Veteran-Owned Small Business may subcontract up to 100 percent of the work to a single subcontractor that is verified in the Small Business Administration Veteran Small Business Certification program, and still comply with the clause.

A large business is not subject to the limitations on subcontracting clauses. Additionally, if the offeror is not a SDVOSB/VOSB firm they do not have to complete and submit VAAR 852.219-75. That clause is only required for firms that are claiming SDVOSB/VOSB certification.

2. Line item 1005, Merced Community Based Outpatient Clinic, appears in the Option 1 group but is labeled "Contract Period: Option 2" with a period of performance of December 1, 2028 through November 30, 2029. The other five Option 1 line items show a period of performance of December 1, 2027 through November 30, 2028.

Please confirm whether line item 1005 should read Option 1 with a period of performance of December 1, 2027 through November 30, 2028.

POP for all locations to be serviced should be 12/1/26-11/30/27 for base year. OY1 12/1/27-11/30/28..and so on.

3. Please confirm that the posted questions and answers, and the revised Statement of Work that removes the National Association for Information Destruction certification requirement, will be incorporated into the solicitation by formal amendment.

Amendment has already posted on SAM yesterday to remove NAID requirement.

4. Under the Addendum to FAR 52.212-2, Factor 3 - Price states that the Government will evaluate prices, fees, and net discounted rates provided in "the attached Xcel sheet."

We do not see a pricing spreadsheet among the posted attachments.

Please either post the pricing spreadsheet, or confirm that quoters should enter pricing directly on the Price/Cost Schedule in Section B of the solicitation.

Disregard xcel sheet, enter pricing directly on the Price/Cost Schedule in Section B.
