95332418Q0034 PEA Institutional Assessment and Political Economy Analysis (Tunisia)

1. Could you please tell me if this is a new requirement, or if there is a current or previous contractor who has performed similar services? If available, can you please send along the incumbent contract or task order number?

a. This is a new requirement and there is no incumbent contractor for this requirement.

2. Can you please clarify whether the subject RFQ is a small business set-aside? FBO indicates it is, but Block 10 of the solicitation is a little difficult to read.

a. The solicitation has been amended, the solicitation is not a set aside but a full and open competition requirement.

3. On the 9th page of the pdf (SOW.pdf) in the Statement of Work. It states:

“The total value of the optional services and should be US$100,000 covering both labor and ODCs. Bidders shall provide unit labor rates for the staff indicated below.”

Should that sentence read as: “The total value of the optional services and base services should be US$100,000 covering both labor and ODCs. Bidders shall provide unit labor rates for the staff indicated below.”

a. No, the statement is correct, the total ceiling amount for Option Period One is $100,000.

The Base Period is a completely separate amount.

4. Our firm intend to submit a bid with respect to the subject solicitation. The deadline is very short and we wonder if it could be possible to have an extension?

a. Yes, we have taken your request into consideration. The solicitation has been extended to
