1. Are there other certifications that may be accepted in substitution of the CSP? Such as a General Contractor, etc.?

Answer: No.

2. Can you confirm if these leased buildings are on Federal Property, or only managed by GSA for code applicability?

Answer: These leased locations are managed by GSA, but they are governed by the local municipality and their Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ).

3. Is a Common Access Card (CAC) sufficient identification for entering federally-controlled facilities, or will these CAC holders still be required to undergo an interim clearance?

Answer: No. A full Tier 1 / GSA Access PIV Card investigation will be required as part of the security clearance process.

4. Qualifications of Firm/Personnel on p. 20 indicates that personnel conducting fire protection facility assessments (RMS surveys) must meet one of the following requirements in A, B, or C. A, B, and C indicate licensed or degreed engineers. In our practice, we use specialized, highly experienced fire protection technicians to perform the field surveys. They provide the information to a Fire Protection Engineer, who is ultimately responsible for the reports.

We have successfully used this method for Life Safety inspections at many Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Centers over the past 10+ years. Is this consistent with the GSAâs intent- or does the GSA require that the surveys themselves be performed only by licensed or degreed engineers?

Answer: The certification requirements for on site personnel are accurately listed in the solicitation.

The solicitation closing date remains August 6, 2024.
