Questions and Answers

I see the areas specified and printed for a location however is there any reason why neighboring towns are not acceptable? An example is if you look at the map Camden one of your locations is next to Cherry Hill but Cherry Hill as more suitable locations.

A: Cherry Hill is within the area of performance as it is within 30 road miles of I-95 as well is in Camden County NJ

I also see the current contractor has 2 locations but they are 95 miles apart. This contract calls for them to be “If separate / multiple facilities are to be used for indoor and outdoor storage, the indoor and outdoor storage facilities shall be located within 10 miles of one another.” Does this requirement only pertain to new contractors or is it also binding on the current contractor?

A: This is a new requirement combining these districts into one contract. There are currently two contracts in place, one for E & M PA, and one for D/MD and

D/DE.

I see there is approximately 162 vehicles in custody. Your guarantee says 10%. Am I correct that means you guarantee 16 vehicles?

A: The minimum guarantee is based on a dollar amount, not number of vehicles being stored. Example: If the contract was awarded for $100,000 for the base year, you would receive payment in the amount of $10,000 regardless if you performed any services.

I do not see anything stating the amount of vehicles in the two separate current contractors locations. To bid properly since the two current contractor locations are 95 miles apart it would be helpful to have the approximate amount in each location to calculate moving cost to the my location.

A: Total = 150 Standard & 12 Large PA = 63 Standard & 6 Large MD = 87 Standard & 6 Large

*Please note that these numbers are subject to change as vehicles are seized and disposed prior to award.
