CONTINUATION PAGE

The following questions were received during the “Question and Answer Period” of the solicitation. All answers have been provided by MCC:

1. Whether companies from Outside USA can apply for this? (like, from India or Canada)

No. In accordance with Paragraph 16 – Contract Award, “This contract shall be awarded solely to an individual, not to a firm.” Therefore, quotes submitted by companies and not an independent consultant will not receive consideration for the contract award.

2. Whether we need to come over there for meetings?

As stated in Section 18 – Place of Performance, “the contractor’s primary duty station will be at MCC Headquarters in Washington, DC.

3. Can we perform the tasks (related to RFP) outside USA? (like, from India or Canada)

No. See Question 2 above.

4. Can we submit the proposals via email?

Yes. In accordance with Section 14 – Response Deadline of the solicitation “Electronic submission is required.

Mailed copies of any submission shall not be accepted….”

5. The website www.sam.gov does not appear to be working, yet registration at that site is listed as a prerequisite for applying. Is there an alternate site at which to register?

No, there is not an alternative website to register for SAM. The www.sam.gov website should be working by now. If you continue to have issue with the website go to the bottom of the page for the ‘federal helpdesk” phone number.
