36C26320Q0510-Vendor Questions and Answers

1. Can you provide oil diagnostics data of the exiting transformer, including PCB test results? VA does not have this information to provide.

2. Can you provide the nameplate weight and dimensions of the existing transformer? At this time the facility POC cannot obtain this information.

3. Is an extension of bid deadline a possibility for this bid package? An extension will be added, as there was a government delay on the part of the Contracting Officer due to an issue with a COVID-19 PPE procurement.

4. Is SDVOSB or VOB status required? The solicitation seems to indicate this is a total small business set-aside, which we should qualify for in our SAM registration, but under Section E.1, veteran-owned status seems perhaps required also? Please clarify. This procurement includes VAAR Clause and Provisions 852.215-70 & 71 which gives SDVOSB and VOSB preference, and will be conducted in accordance with these regulations, however being a SDVOSB or VOSB is not mandatory, as this is a 100% Small Business Set-Aside.

5. Are any photos or drawings available of the existing transformer and location of transformer? See attached Pics. The transformer is located east of the MRI building at the Des Moines VA Facility.

6. If we would like to schedule a site visit, what is the protocol for this during the pandemic? Additional screenings are required to enter VA grounds, and a mask is required to enter the VA facilities. If a site visit is requested, I will put you in contact with a local point of contact to advise of any additional requirements at the local site.
