The following is a discrepancy pointed out by a vendor in regard to RFP 36C263240135.

VA response is in RED font below the question.

1. Discrepancy: The VISN Total for Microscopic as stated in the Table “Estimated Annual Volumes by Medical Center Facility” in the Statement of Work is stated as 61,150 which appears incorrect. When added together, the correct VISN Total for Microscopic appears to be 80,050.

Answer: Our apologies. We stated 61,150 which is incorrect. The correct VISN Total for

Microscopic is 80,050. Wherever 61,150 is used for the Microscopic VISN Total in the RFP document, please use 80,050 instead.

See page 12, 13, 14, 15, and 16 of the attached revised RFP document for revisions. Thank you for pointing this out. This is the only revision to the RFP since Amendment 0002.
