Can you clarify the period of performance dates and the start date for this contract?

Answer: Please refer to “Attachment 1 – Schedule of Services – 70Z03825QK0000007” for period of performance dates.

2.

PWS 10.5

What are the required PPEs? How do we provide them within our price given that there is no ODC CLIN?

Answer: Generally, the required PPE includes Safety Glasses, Steel Toe Shoes, Chemical resistant gloves, and possibly respirators. The company shall provide further PPE deemed necessary after a worksite assessment post-award.

3.

PWS 10.8

Confined space entry – what depth are we responsible for? Are we responsible solely for certifying the space Gas free and safe to enter or do we need all the equipment to ventilate the space such as Rhine Air machines and respiratory equipment, and fuel cell non-sparking tools and lighting?

Answer: This section is included in all ALC’s service contracts, but to date CAD/CAM/CNC has not had to go into a confined space. This does not mean that the situation will never arise.

4.

PWS 14.2

What equipment are you specifically talking about? Will it be provided or will it have to be provided, and does it include safety equipment? What safety equipment will need to be repurchased? Will this be purchased from the incumbent contractor?

Answer: All equipment (excluding safety equipment) the CAD/CAM/CNC staff uses for day-to-day operations is provided by the Coast Guard. (e.g., Computers, Software, Industrial Machines and tools)

5. PWS – 5.6

Please clarify the “removal of personnel from the CAD contract or any Government contract” as highlighted in the PWS statement below.

This clearly states that we must request approval before proposing an employee that was removed from any Government Contract at the direction or request of the Contracting agency – not removed by the contractor

Answer: Correct. If an individual is removed at the request of the Government, they must request approval by the Government to rehire the individual.

6. PWS 10.4.2

Please clarify the license requirements as highlighted in the PWS statement below. Are we talking about drivers' license only or other specific licenses (OSHA, etc.)?

Answer: A state issued driver’s license.

7.

Past

Performance Template

Government has provided a past performance (PP) template as a PDF file for PP write up. However, it is not a fillable PDF document. Does government intent to provide a fillable PDF file OR is it okay for us to create one on our own as long as it covers all the requested information in the government provided template?

Answer: It is acceptable to create one if all requested information is provided.
