5. Contractor is requesting an extension the clarification date to 1Mar 12PM PST.
Answer: Approved, RFC deadline is March 1, 2024 at 12pm PST
6. Could the Coast Guard entertain a week extension to allow sufficient time to get the engineers certificate?
Answer: We are on a tight schedule due to operational commitments that require a period of performance. To award a contract also requires due diligence to ensure that all offers are evaluated to ensure that the most advantageous offer to the government is selected. Due to the timeline, we are not able to extend the solicitation.
7. The time period allotted to prepare the bid and submit questions is not adequate for a project of this scope and size. With the added cybersecurity requirements associated with the Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), a significant amount of time is needed to work with our subcontractors verifying all the requirements are met to be able to share the CUI information with those subcontractors that require those file for preparing their bids. The request for references took a longer period of time to be sent out. This has caused a delay in starting the process of soliciting RFQ’s from subcontractors and the initial review of the project. We are requesting an extension of the Bid Due Date from 3/6/2024 to 4/5/2024. We are requesting an extension of the Bid Question Due Date from 2/28/2024 to 3/25/2024.
Answer: We are on a tight schedule due to operational commitments that require a period of performance. To award a contract also requires due diligence to ensure that all offers are evaluated to ensure that the most advantageous offer to the government is selected. Due to the timeline, we are not able to extend the solicitation.
We have extended the Bid Question due date from 2/28/2024 to 3/1/2024 at 12pm PST
