Appendix 1 – Attachment 7 Page 115, Period of Performance: Revise “18 months” to “36 months”

Page 83, Section L.6.1.1-a-2, third paragraph. Add the following sentence “In addition, the offeror shall assume a target award date on or around 30 August 2010.”

7. Solicitation erroneously contained two sections numbered as G.12. Those sections remain but have been renumbered correctly. The renumbering of those sections can be seen on the solicitation document.

Pages 24-26 , Section G.12, Travel Costs has been renumbered to G.13.

Section G.13, DESIGNATION OF PROPERTY ADMINISTRATOR has been renumbered to G.14.

Page 26, Section G.14, GOVERNMENT-FURNISHED PROPERTY (GFP) has been renumbered to G.15.

8. Section G.13 Travel Costs, was updated to show that actual travel costs will be reimbursed in accordance with the Joint Travel Regulations, Federal Travel Regulations or Standardized Regulations, as applicable. Previously it read “in accordance with the Federal Travel Regulations” and made no mention of the others.

This change can be found in Section G.13 on page 25 of the solicitation.

9. Various clause related information:

The Government has determined that clause 52.227-18 Rights in Data—Existing Works (DEC 2007) is not needed in the solicitation. The clause has been removed from page 54 of the solicitation.

FAR clause 52.222-39 Notification of Employee Rights Concerning Payment of Union Fees or Dues clause has been removed from page 67 of the solicitation.

The clause 52.217-9 Option to Extend the Term of the Contract (MAR 2000) is now included in full text in Section I and is no longer only incorporated by reference.

The solicitation has been revised to replace clause 52.219-6 Notice of Total Small Business Set-Aside-Alt I (JUN 2003) with 52.219-6 Notice of Total Small Business Set- Aside (JUN 2003). The Fedbizopps announcement and language in the RFP clearly show it is the Government’s intent that the work be set-aside for small business. The small business clause now accurately reflects this intent.

Per FAR 45.107(c)- Given the inclusion of the Government Property clause in the solicitation, FAR 52.245-9 Use and Charges (JUN 2007) should also be included in the solicitation.

These changes can be found on page 61 and 53, 54 of the solicitation, respectively.
