RFP 47PL0122R0035 EMATOC & 47PL0122R0041 Sump Pump Seed Project Pre-Proposal Requests For Information (RFI) and Responses

1.) Question: Please verify the Government’s point of contact for the PPQs is Kimberly Johnson. Also the subject line has the wrong project number and title.

Answer: Correct POC is MacKenzie Dunn at mackenzie.dunn@gsa.gov. Exhibit 6 Past Performance Questionnaire revised and attached as revision 1.

2.) Question: Are these bidding as two separate projects or are they combined as one?

Answer: The Seed Project is an evaluation factor for the EMATOC RFP (47PL0122R0041) which is an Indefinite delivery/quantity (IDIQ) type of contract vehicle. This type of contract allows GSA to compete and issue Task Order Requests when needs arise to the pool of awarded Contractors. The Seed Project is in support of the EMATOC and will be the first issued task order against the vehicle in accordance with the evaluation criteria. Reference RFP EMATOC 47PL0122R0035 Section L for details.

3.) Question: Is the seed project, a real project? If the seed project is awarded, will the winner also be awarded the IDIQ?

Answer: Yes, the Seed Project is a real project. The awardee of the Seed Project will be awarded as a task order under the IDV. It is noted that per the solicitation, GSA intends to award up to six (6) IDIQ contracts as part of a Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) pool. Winning the Seed Project award does not preclude an offeror from being awarded a MATOC contract. Reference RFP EMATOC 47PL0122R0035 Section L for details.

4.) Question: Will there be another site visit?

Answer: No, at this time there is no plan to have a second site visit. As there is no access into the elevator pit during the site walk, it is determined that the technical documents provided with the SOW for the Sump Pump RFP are sufficient.

5.) Question: Will you post the sign in sheet from the site visit yesterday?

Answer: Yes. Please see attached Site Visit Sign in Sheet.

6.) Question: Are there base drawings for this project?

Answer: Yes, there are drawings. However, they contain Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).

Answer: Please provide a completed Exhibit 6 PPQ document for each project being provided for evaluation for this subfactor. If unable to obtain a completed PPQ from a client before the closing date, the offeror should complete and submit with the proposal the first page of the PPQ, which will provide contact and client information for the respective project.

13.) Question: FP Page 45 – M-13: States that you will be obtaining independent information beyond our proposal. Can you expand on how you go about evaluating items (a) thru (f)?

Answer: RFP 47PL00122R0035 Section M-13 states The Contracting Officer's determination of an Offeror's responsibility or non-responsibility may be based upon any information obtained by the Contracting Officer, and is independent of the evaluation of offers set forth herein.
