Solicitation FA0021-12-R-0014, JTAC/SUAS Program Management

Questions and Answers:

Question 1. Are there incumbent(s) for this contract? If so, who are they and what is the value of the incumbent contract(s)?

RESPONSE: This acquisition is a result of a combination of two existing contracts. The first was awarded to

Wintec Arrowmaker in the amount of $14,278,297.69; The other contract was awarded outside of this office to Rally Point Management in the amount of $4,299,000 EST.

Question 2. Page 56 of the Solicitation states, "5352.215-9000 FACILITY CLEARANCE (MAY 1996). The offeror must possess, or acquire prior to award of a contract, a facility clearance equal to the highest classification stated on the Contract Security Classification Specification (DD Form 254) attached to this solicitation." My company does not currently have a facility clearance, although I have personally in the past held a secret and top secret clearance, which is currently inactive. Can we get sponsored for a facility clearance so that we can acquire one prior to the award of a contract, so that we can bid on this contract? I understand that if we do not receive our clearance before contract award, I would not be eligible for award per 5352.215-9000.

RESPONSE: This clause will be deleted. All classified material will be handled in a Government facility.
