Q&A for Solicitation AG-8447-S-14-0002, Nebraska NF and NGLs & Badlands NP, SD & NE May 2, 2014

An amendment to the solicitation may be issued reflecting corrections below no later than May 9, 2014.

1. Question: Page 10 of the RFP requests a single 4-band 16-bit uncorrected georeferenced image sample, but the table on page 23 requests a “set representing the landscape(s) of the project.”

Answer: Page 10, Section C-6.1(d) is correct. For 16-bit uncorrected imagery only a single image sample is required under Section C-6.1(d). Table 2.1 on page 23 under Quantity & Frequency of pre-production samples should read “one sample image.” Additionally, the first header in this table should read “base Item(s) – 16-Bit Uncorrected Stereo Imagery Deliverables.”

2. Question: Page 13 requests two sets of four images in the sample stereo block file for a total of eight images, but the table on page 23 requests just four (4) overlapping images.

Answer: Table 2.1 on page 23 is correct regarding the sample stereo block file. For this RFP only four (4) overlapping images are required to be included with the sample stereo block file.

Section C-6.3(b) should read “The Contractor shall provide a sample stereo block file pointing to and containing four (4) stereo images. The block file shall point to only the four (4) images provided with the sample.”

3. Question: Would you prefer the stereo blocks to be combined for the East Half Buffalo Gap NG and Badlands National Park due to their overlapping nature, or would you like them separated with a hole in the middle of E. Buffalo Gap?

Answer: The preference would be to have the stereo blocks combined for the East Half Buffalo Gap NG and Badlands NP.

4. Question: Would the correct shipment date for stereo imagery on page 26 of the RFP be December 30, 2014, based on 90 calendar days from the end of the acquisition season? Does the TBD for the DOQQQs just reflect that the ortho option might not be awarded?

Answer: The shipment date for Item 1 in the Delivery Schedule table in Section F-3.1 on page 26 of the RFP should be December 29, 2014. The TBD in the shipment date for the DOQQQs reflects the uncertainty of the potential award date for the DOQQQs. Under Section B-4.1, the option to award the DOQQQs can be exercised within 180 days after the end of the approximate acquisition period in B-2.
