Prospective Offeror's Question and Answer

Question 1: Regarding the above noted solicitation, in Section D, F.A.1), it states that 1200 HP is the minimum HP requirement for the vessel to qualify. If a ship meets and/or exceeds every other requirement of the solicitation but only has 1000 HP, would that vessel be disqualified for consideration for the RFP?

Response: The Government has never attempted to fish our cantrawl net with less than 1100 HP, and we are not sure if it could be done. At 1100 HP it was very taxing for the vessel. It would take an experienced captain who is very familiar with the capabilities of his/her ship and midwater trawling to even attempt it. The Government would not disqualify based on this requirement, but Offerors should be made aware of the above.

All other terms and conditions of Solicitation Number AB-133F-17-RP-0046 remain unchanged.

As specified on Page 1 of this Amendment Number A0002, Offerors must acknowledge receipt of this amendment by completing Block Numbers 8 and 15 and returning a signed copy of this amendment with the Offeror’s proposal.
