Q1. Will EXIM extend the due / closing date to this solicitation?

A1. No. Offers Due Date remains: Aug 31, 2026, 5:00 PM EDT

Q2. Can we use subcontractors, and utilize their qualifications to satisfy your requirements?

A2.1. While subcontracting is permissible under federal contracts, the prime contractor must comply with applicable subcontracting requirements, including FAR Part 44 or FAR Part 12, as appropriate, and approved subcontracting plan. The prime contractor is responsible for ensuring that all subcontractors possess the requisite qualifications, clearances, and capabilities to perform the work. Any use of subcontractors does not relieve the prime contractor of its contractual obligations, as the prime contractor remains solely responsible to the Government for performance, compliance, and deliverable quality.

A.2.2. IAW 52.219-14 Limitations on Subcontracting; in addition to, 19.505 Limitations on subcontracting and nonmanufacturer rule. (b)(1) Limitations on subcontracting. A small business concern subject to the limitations on subcontracting is required to comply with the following:

(i)For a contract or order assigned a North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for services (except construction), the concern will not pay more than 50 percent of the amount paid by the Government for contract performance to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities. Any work that a similarly situated entity further subcontracts will count towards the concern's 50 percent subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded. [...]

Q3. What level of detailed work plan you need for each event?

A3. This should be within the solicitations page limitation response as part of your offer under your Management Approach (technical response on how offeror will meet all solicitation requirements).

QandA amendment A00001 is complete in its entirety.
