Q: Per the solicitation, this contract is identified as NAICS code 238290 – Other Building

Equipment Contractors. FAR 19.102 Lists this NAICS as a Specialty Trade. VAAR

852.219-75 VA Notice of Limitations on Subcontracting states SDVOSB contractors shall not subcontract more than 75% for specialty trades. If the FAR, SBA and US Bureau of

Labor Statistics (https://www.bls.gov/oes/2023/may/naics3_238000.htm) classify this

NAICS Code as a specialty trade, the Limitations on Subcontracting should only require a

25% minimum self-performance on behalf of the SDVOSB prime, rather than 50% for

Services. Please advise if the VA will make this adjustment to the limitations clause in the contract.

A: The Government has agreed to make this adjustment to reflect clause VAAR 852.219-75 VA

Notice of Limitation on Subcontracting – Certificate of Compliance for Services and

Construction. Special trade construction contractors should be marked rather than Services.

Q: Pricing CLIN’s 0002, 1002, 2002, 3002 and 4002 are asking for over and above maintenance and repair costs. The actual costs are impossible to determine now as we don’t know how many repairs will be required annually or the magnitude of the repairs and associated costs.

A: Pricing for over and above maintenance can be submitted with zero-dollar amount. CLIN’s

0002, 1002, 2002, 3002 and 4002 for Over and above maintenance are typically only used for

Emergency Services that are not covered under CLIN’s 0001, 1001, 2001, 3001 and 4001 for maintenance and repair services.

NOTE: Any questions not answered is due to it not having any relevancy to the current solicitation and or is public information in which a contractor may request a FOIA.
