5 X

Regarding Solicitation 69056726Q000039, I reviewed the August 24 Q&A concerning commercially available containers manufactured in China and understand the Government's direction to FAR 52.225-1.

For quote preparation purposes, if an offeror proposes foreign-manufactured containers, should those containers be identified as foreign end products in the quote along with their country of origin for the Government's Buy American evaluation?

Yes. Please refer to FAR 52.225-2 in Section E. 27-Aug-2026

6 X Do you need these containers delivered to ground? Or will you have equipment onsite to offload the containers?

See page D-1 of the RFQ. The Contractor is responsible for offloading and placing the containers. 27-Aug-2026

7 X I’m not seeing what spec they are looking for on the other 3. The request says 3 full open side HCOS (“Type A”), but I’m not seeing what they want on the other 3.

See Page D-2 paragraph B. Type B is Standard 40-foot High Cube (40' HC) Container (3 Units). The doors and opening are located on one of the short ends of the container.

8 X Can you please elaborate whether you need new containers or used one?

See Amendment A001 posted on 08/26/2026. Required container condition: Must be used (Wind and Water Tight (WWT)).

Looking at the pricing sheet for the Notice ID listed above, where it is listing shipping and handling, the qty is 1 but it should be 2 b/c once we drop off, we have to pick up correct?

The vendor is responsible for delivering, offloading, and placing the containers. No pickup is required. 2-Sep-2026
