Sandra Fusco Questions/Answers to Solicitation 36C26221R0004 Shuttle Service for Offsite Parking Lot(s) for the VA San Diego Healthcare System

1. Question – I'm struggling to reconcile the requirement to provide enough capacity during a three hour rush hour while also being told the maximum vehicle capacity is 44, the schedule is every 15 min, and you must enforce social distancing. Can you please clarify which of the requirements are firm and which are desired? Or confirm that the VA will not hold the contractor responsible for people waiting for long periods to get an available seat if we are providing the required size vehicles, running on the published schedule, and enforcing social distancing?

Answer – RFP 36C26221R0004 shall be amended to add paragraph 6.7 which shall read as follows:

6.7 Contractor shall ensure that every other seat between passengers shall remain empty. If the proposed shuttle bus has similar layout as a school bus (equipped with bench seat aisle), Contractor shall only allow one passenger placed in a staggered position per side. Rule of thumb shall be to leave an empty seat between every passenger.
