Questions and Answers

1. Can you provide a breakdown of the Alarm Monitors and Guard Staffing? Would need the Breakdown of how many Alarm Monitors and hours / days for correct pricing?

a. This requirement is for security guard services, and the specific needs are outlined in the PWS. A breakdown of hours for specific tasks is not available. Alarm monitoring involves observing the cameras and doors from the facility they are patrolling and responding as necessary (e.g., contacting 911, Facilities, EHSS, etc.).

2. Is there a vehicle required?

a. No

3. Also, the SOW states 24/7, however the staffing just sets 1600 to 0800 Monday - Thursday and 24 hours for Friday to Monday morning.

a. The goal was to reduce the current schedule of 24/7/365 to only 24 hours a day on weekends, holidays, and snow days. Normal weekdays will be 16 hour days (excluding the day shift).

4. I would assume we will just bill the Supervisor into the rate for Service.

a. Pricing is per month inclusive of all charges for this requirement.

5. Is there a current incumbent or new contract?

a. There is an incumbent, but that contract requirement is changing, and the new contract has new hours and a new PWS. Current Contract# 89503624PSW000213. Cherokee Nation Integrated Health, L.L.C. holds the current contract.

6. Specifically, could you please confirm the total number of security guards required to fulfill the requirements outlined in the Performance Work Statement (PWS), including coverage for the one-person post and any anticipated or unanticipated office closures?

a. We do not have a set number of guards in mind. We just expect the contractor to provide one guard per shift.

7. Our Technical Bid Proposal is more than 2 pages. I hope you meant 20 pages.

a. The Narrative page count has been changed to 4 pages. Provide a narrative (no more than 4 (4) pages) summarizing the approach to fulfilling the PWS requirement.

8. Subfactor A of Evaluation Factor 1 - Technical requires that offerors provide proof of "A Certificate of Authority from the Oklahoma Council on Law Enforcement Education & Training (CLEET)." The Oklahoma CLEET website (https://oklahoma.gov/cleet.html) does not return clear results for "certificate of authority." Does this requirement relate to "agency licensing" (https://oklahoma.gov/cleet/licensing/agency-licensing.html)? We ask for clarification on this requirement, particularly since "agency licensing" requires that the applicant have a company POC residing in Oklahoma.

a. The Agency and Guards and the employee must both be CLEET licensed.
