Responses to Questions 9-1-2026.pdf

This document is a Questions and Answers response from the United States Coast Guard regarding solicitation 70Z03826QS0000014, with answers provided on September 1, 2026.

The document addresses a single question concerning the mandatory site visit requirement for quotation submission. The USCG clarifies that because the site visit is mandatory for a quotation to be considered technically acceptable, verification must be provided that the site visit was attended by an employee of the prime contractor or an authorized agent of the prime contractor. The response does not explicitly state whether a prior documented site visit attended by a proposed subcontractor satisfies the requirement or whether the prime contractor must conduct a new site visit registered under the prime's name. However, the emphasis on verification of prime contractor or authorized agent attendance implies that a prior subcontractor site visit would not satisfy the requirement; the prime contractor or its authorized representative must complete the site visit and visitor request process.
