Attch 2 RFI Q and A.docx

This is a Questions and Answers (Q&A) document attachment to a Request for Information (RFI) issued by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), a component of the Department of Homeland Security, for Fitness for Duty and Independent Medical Examinations (RFI #70T01026I7663N001). The document serves as a template for interested vendors to respond to eight specific questions designed to gather market research information regarding vendor capabilities, qualifications, and pricing recommendations.

The RFI requires vendors to submit company information (name, address, Unique Entity ID, point of contact, and business size classification), a capabilities statement addressing nationwide coverage and experience delivering fitness for duty independent medical examinations (limited to two pages), recommended labor categories with minimum qualifications, rough order of magnitude (ROM) cost estimates provided on a per-examination, per-hour, or total cost basis, and pricing recommendations with preference for firm-fixed pricing on a unit price per examination basis. Vendors must also identify any questions, suggestions, or concerns regarding the draft SOW, recommend meaningful technical evaluation factors for potential solicitation, and specify expected scheduling timeframes for examinations. All responses must not exceed seven pages total, including the two-page capabilities statement limit. The examinations must be consistent with TSA medical guidelines and include assessment of employee history, past medical treatment records, and current mental and physical status. This is a pre-solicitation market research effort and does not constitute a commitment to award; responses are voluntary and unpaid.
