PREVIOUS EDITION UNUSABLE Prescribed by GSA, FAR (48 CFR) 53.243

Solicitation 47QMCA22R0014 Amendment 004 – Continuation of Standard Form 30

1) PROVIDE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS AS SUBMITTED IN RESPONSE TO THE RFP

Question 1: In Auto Vendor, are all the items listed under the column titled “GSA Components” a minimum requirement? Or only those where the “GSA Minimum Requirements” column states “req” or has a value?

Answer 1: Everything listed in the “GSA Components” Column is a requirement. If there is nothing listed in the “GSA Minimum Requirement” column, then the item needs no clarification or further description.

Question 2: How does the Government handle CNS as it pertains to open safety recalls?

Answer 2: Recall notices should be sent to the mailing address found on the MVDO (order document) for each order and should not be sent to the delivery address. The customer agency purchasing the vehicle is responsible for completion of recalls.

Question 3: If the consignee performs recalls, what is the timeline for completing recalls and will the consignee enter this information into the OEM warranty system?

Answer 3: Assuming "consignee" in this case refers to the customer agency purchasing the vehicle, then that agency is responsible for the completion of recalls. Recalls would have to be performed by an OEM warranty service location (dealer, authorized service center, etc.), and as such the warranty service location would be responsible for entering this information into the OEM warranty system.

Question 4: Regarding Section (C.5) B(6) of the solicitation, could this apply to a situation where there are no dealers, within the specified area, that participate in the OEM Courtesy Delivery Program?

Answer 4: If there are no dealers within the specified population to milage area detailed in section C.5. It is the responsibility of the contractor to notify the government within 30 calendar days after receipt of the delivery order. Notification would allow the government time to amend the delivery order to require consignee delivery.

Therefore, avoiding a customer retrieval delay. The 5 (five) day customer pick up requirement does not start until the order has been contractually delivered.

Question 5: Regarding Section (C.5) B(6) of the solicitation, if a contractor has made a cancel request, what is the timeline for GSA to make a determination and get back to the contractor?

Answer 5: The solicitation does not identify a specific time. However, if the vehicle is not picked up within 5 (five) business days after GSA has instructed the customer agency HQ fleet manager and a cancel request is made. The government will cancel without further delay or requests to the customer.

Question 6: Can you provide clarification on Section D.9?

Answer 6: This section details how and where decals should be applied when the customer does not specify a preferred application. Caution plates/decals should be noticeable for all equipment that require it. The requirement for an additional decal listing the Contract number, PO Number, date of delivery, month and year, and the warranty time in months and miles would be affixed by the vehicle upfitter. This information is listed on the GSA Form 1398, which is listed as a requirement in the Federal Standard paragraph 3.8.5 of the Fed-Std-

307BB.

Question 7: For civilian deliveries, when and where are decals to be placed on the vehicle? At the OEM level, delivering dealer, what if its CNS?

Answer 7: The caution plates/decals to be installed for all equipment requiring them could be installed by the OEM if they installed the equipment, or the upfitter if they installed the equipment. Vehicles for civil agencies requires the OEMs current warranty legend be imprinted on a decal and affixed to the engine compartment in a

Solicitation 47QMCA22R0014 Amendment 004 – Continuation of Standard Form 30 visible area. It is possible that the OEM would affix the decal, however if the OEM does not provide the decal the contractor could have the decal created and the upfitter affix the label. Either would be acceptable if the decal contains the required information and is affixed to the vehicle at the time the vehicle is presented for inspection.

Question 8: When a upfitted truck option requires a vehicle to become drive away only and/or requires larger cab-axle. Do you want drive away pricing and/or larger cab-axle price included in that option or would GSA handle freight and/or select a truck with larger CA?

Answer 8: GSA will not handle freight. Contractors should price their options based on what it costs to get the product to the customer.

Question 9: We have a list of custom colors available, but our OEM requires a certain number of orders to fill a custom color order. Which colors may be considered optional equipment? If none, how many units do you predict will need a custom paint color? Are you able to provide more technical information?

Answer 9: You can offer any custom paint color as s separate option. You can also add a clarification that allows the customer agency to select a specific custom color from a provided color chart. We do not have an estimated unit count we can provide. We also do not have further technical information regarding paint color.

Question 10: How does GSA want contractors to handle AutoVendor information regarding changes to 2023 model specifications? What if the OEM order guides and price lists are not yet available?

Answer 10: If you do not have specification information for minimums, you can submit as TBD. When you do receive the information, you can submit that time. However, if you have the information but there are updates, please document the changes on the Technical Exceptions Worksheet. If you are unaware of the appropriate collision as a result of not having specifications, those can be entered or updated at any time. Regarding pricing, you must have pricing information by the deadline.

Question 11: Regarding option MSTL FY23 can you provide any additional information, specifications, and diagrams where available, as it pertains to the following: #5. Wheels to be painted non gloss black, do not paint front hubs #7. Install color matched canvas seat covers on the seats # 11. Furnish NATO 12 pin electrical connector 12V DC located at rear hitch.

Answer 11: We do not have additional information, specifications, or diagrams we can provide at this time.
