1. Under Section E.2(d)(2)(ii), we are asked to Indicate the ratio of licensed and/or certified prosthetists on staff (all business, all areas of responsibility) to the number of employees. Do not include product employees in the ratio calculation. In making the ratio calculation, use full-time equivalent employees (FTEE). A full-time employee counts as 1.0 FTEE. A half-time employee counts as .5 FTEE. Only use individuals in US operations.

0. Can you please clarify what a “product employee” means here? an employee who is employed by the Seller/Vendor/Business or any of their affiliates that have a connection with a Product Line/Business or an employee whose services are primarily or exclusively related to the Product Line/Business.

1. In reviewing the contract requirements again, we are a little unclear still on the exact quantity requirements. Based on Section E.2.

Please send 1 copy of each volume electronically only. Please email both Michelle Williams @michelle.williams4@va.gov and Brandy Hudson @ brandy.hudson@va.gov. If you feel your Volume II files can not be submitted electronically please email: Michelle.Williams4@va.gov for further instructions.

1. In reviewing Attachment D.1 however, we didn’t see tabs for sockets and components. How should we add in the information for those products?

The Attachment D.1 has been updated to include a tab with no L-Code in order to add products that do not have one but within the requirements of the contract.
