Questions and Answers for 70RFPW21RWA000006 – PSO Services West Central WA

Question Answer Reference

1 The Pricing Schedule requests a maximum of 45,500 PSO hours per year and the post schedule shows an approximate total of 42,224 hpy – a difference of 3,276 hpy (7.2%). If an offeror allocates its supervision and fixed overhead costs over the entire SF1449 requested hours and the Government requests only those listed on the post schedule, the offeror will not be paid for more than 7.2% of its overhead costs. How will the contractor be reimbursed for those costs?

There is an annual maximum 45,500-hour order quantity for basic services inclusive of the current post schedule hours, temporary additional service (TAS) hours, and potential growth. There is an additional annual maximum 500-hour order quantity for emergency security services (ESS). The government may order any quantity from the minimum up to the maximum.

The prices proposed by the vendor on the SF1449 are fixed and not subject to an adjustment resulting from variations in Government ordering up to the maximum quantity. Any pricing risk associated with variations in order quantity should be fully considered by the vendor and reflected in the proposed prices. It is at the contractor’s discretion to determine their pricing strategy taking into consideration all cost elements required to support the Government up to the maximum quantities. The Contractor’s price shall be inclusive of all the Contractor’s direct costs, indirect costs and profit.

2 In Exhibit 8 Contractor-Provided Training, a.

Firearm Qualification Course (Handgun), it is stated that the minimum qualification score is two hundred out of two hundred-fifty. But, under Marksmanship Rating, 220 is the lowest score displayed. Would the Government please clarify what is the minimum qualification score?

The minimum required score is 200. The separate set of score ranges under ‘Marksmanship Ratings’ are for higher‐level marksmanship ratings and are not the minimum scores for basic qualification.

Exhibit 8 Contractor-Provided Training. P.159 paragraph a.

3 The required font size is 11pt. Would the Government allow the use of 10pt font size for tables, graphics and images?

No, 11pt. font is the minimum size requirement. Proposal Submission Requirements. P. 266

7 Considering the CBA is expiring before the contract start date, is it the Governments intent to utilize the February 1, 2021 wage rate of $29.05 per hour, the 401k rate of $.95 per hour, and the Health and Welfare Rate of $4.54 per hour, as the intended labor and benefits cost factors?

Yes, the February 1, 2021 wages, 401k rate, and H&W rate, as well as other bona fide fringe benefits identified in WD-CBA-2018-10962 and recognized as allowable under the terms of the Service Contract Labor Standards statute, are the minimum wages and fringes the awardee will be required to pay all employees subject to the statute and working under the contract.

P.224 of the RFP

8 Can the government please confirm the number of Post Tracking System tablets to be utilized on this contract, in accordance with 14.8.4 in the Statement of Work?

17 plus 10% reserve requirement = 19 tablets Post Exhibit P. 207 and clarifications on pages 184 and 184a of Amendment 0001

9 Has this contract had a complete roll out of the Post Tracking System on each post, or is it anticipated to occur before the contract start date?

No, Post Tracking (PTS) will deploy in this contract area with the start of contract performance. PTS is a new requirement for this contract.
