QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS:

1.

Reference: Amendment #1 Page 2, #4 The Amendment deletes Part 4, Subcontracting Plan, from the proposal requirements and says, “this section is not required”. Does this mean that the “listing of subcontracts” for small businesses that is referenced in Section 4 is no longer requested?

Response: The listing of anticipated subcontracts is still requested, even though a Subcontracting Plan is not required. The list may be submitted as a separate section or included within the Business Management Proposal. The Business Management Proposal should also include all of the information listed in Section L.7.B.5.a.4.(b) for any subcontracts expected to exceed $25,000.

2.

Reference: RFP Page 112, b. Career Preparation Period, #3 This question asks the offeror to describe the proposed career transition readiness program or curriculum that will be delivered in CPP. Should this have read “the proposed career development readiness program?

Response: The question is correct as written.

3.

Reference RFP Section: L.7.A The RFP requires the type size to be 12 pitch or larger. Word processing products used to prepare documents measure font size in points. Would it be acceptable to use a font that is 12 point, such as Times New Roman 12?

Response: Yes, any 12 point font is acceptable.

4.

Reference RFP Section: General The RFP does not specify a minimum font size for graphics and tables. Would the Government permit a smaller but readable font, such as Arial 8, for graphics and tables?
