70LCHE25QPFB00003 FLETC Cheltenham Role Player Services

1. Does CLIN 0001 valued at 3,000 hours applicable for the complete 5-year period of time [versus merely an annual base year]?

These are estimated annual hours we expect for services

2. Is there a published Wage Determination minimum hourly rate for a Role Player since there is no Occupation Code for the role player labor category?

No

3. Since this effort will be based on the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable basis [on RFQ Page 2 of 50] how will the government evaluate contractor offerors as proposing technically acceptable role players?

Please see clause 52.212-2 for evaluation criteria

4. Could you confirm the WD for this effort? 2015-4227 (Rev-31) is sited in Section 18 but appears to be for Pennsylvania. 2015-4281 (Rev 34) is attached to the solicitation but doesn’t appear to include a rate for a Role Player.

WD 2015-4281 (REV 34) is applicable for this solicitation. Statement There is no published Wage Determination Minimum hourly rate for Role Player Services.

5. The SF 1449 has two items numbers 0001: Role-player Services and 0002 Lead Role-player Supervisors. Is this pricing for the base year only or all 5 years?

5 years. Please see amended SF1449

6. If you need pricing for all 5 years, could you provide an updated the SF 1449 that includes base item numbers (0001, 0002) and option year items numbers (1001, 1002, 2001, 2002 etc.)?

Please see amended SF1449

7. What is an accurate expectation of scheduling for the role players and specifically, the lead/supervising role player? Mainly, are they expected on a variety of days on a consecutive week to week basis or is the expectation of availability more sporadic such as a few days per month?

A role player work schedule will be issued with each BPA call for role player services. The role player work schedule will be issued at least fifteen (15) working days prior to the beginning of each class. The role player work schedule will include the date, time, scenario name, course number, role player report location, and number of role players.

8. Could you confirm the WD for this effort? 2015-4227 (Rev-31) is sited in Section 18 but appears to be for Pennsylvania. 2015-4281 (Rev 34) is attached to the solicitation but doesn’t appear to include a rate for a Role Player.

There is no WD currently associated with this solicitation. A Request for Authorization of Additional Classification and Wage Rate, Standard Form 1444 shall be submitted by the awardee using the Conformance Process listed on the Register of Wage Determinations.

9. Regarding the subject solicitation, since the evaluation is based on 52.212-2, can you provide the fill-ins of 52.212-2 (a), which defines the evaluation factors and relative importance of the offeror’s technical and past performance?

Revised 52.212-2

10. The Wage Determination currently does not have the DOL applicable minimum hourly rate for a Role Player. This typically occurs for some Occupation Codes, [especially for the role player labor category], when a critical and necessary labor category in a SCA solicitation is missing. On these cases agencies in the past, including FLETC, have gone directly to DOL to request and receive the hourly rate currently missing in the WD. Has the government already made such a mandatory request? This hourly rate is needed for valid offeror's price proposals.

A Request for Authorization of Additional Classification and Wage Rate, Standard Form 1444 shall be submitted by the awardee using the Conformance Process listed on the

Register of Wage Determinations. The reference should be WD2015-4281 as the performance will take place in Prince George County, MD.

11. For the offeror’s providing evaluation-relevant written content, addressing issues supporting their LPTA technically acceptability, is there a page limit or any font or format limitation regarding the offeror’s submitted written content? How should this content be submitted?

12. What are the submission requirements for 70LCHE25QPFB00003? There are none listed. Is it simply returning the SF1449 with pricing? Is there a technical section required?

Is past performance required?
