Questions & Answers

1. Question: At paragraph L-8B.8.a. it states, “Request completed questionnaires be submitted by POCs directly to the CO not later than the due date for the TA2S proposal.” However, Attachment 5, L-10, Questionnaire Cover Letter, states, “We need your written response by 15 April.” Is the due date for the questionnaires to be returned to you 15 April or 2 May?

Answer: Questionnaires are due by 2 May 2011 (will be formally revised in an amendment).

2. Question: Section H-11 requires the ITAR registration be submitted with the TO proposal. Is the ITAR information exempt from page limits?

Answer: RFP H-11 states “when ITARs registration is applicable for TO work.” ITARS is not applicable to either the ITW/AA TO or the Exercise Planning and Support TO. Therefore, no ITARS information should be submitted for this RFP.

3. Question: Section L-6D.2.a. implies that the Contractor should provide OCI information relevant to each task order with each task order. Is OCI information exempt from the Volume II and Volume III page limits?

Answer: Yes, please see Table L-3, Proposal Organization, in Section L-3 of the RFP.

4. Question: Attachment 5, L-9, Past Performance Questionnaire, Question E4, reads: “Please circle one. Was the training: Web-based Formal?” The RFP, M-4 relevancy criteria for this item requires both formal and web-based training to be “Relevant”.

Answer: Will be formally revised in an amendment to read: “Please circle one or both”.

5. Question: RFP, L-6C.2, Volume I, appears to call for only the Prime’s DD-254 with contractor information in Block 7. Please confirm that separate subcontractor DD-254s are not required to be submitted in Volume I.

Answer: Please remove N/A from Block 7 (will be formally revised in an amendment). Offerors must complete Blocks 6, 7 and 8. Block 7 should be completed with subcontractor/team mate information. Also see RFP Section L-6C.2 which requests offerors indicate if continuation sheets are required.

6. Question: Re: RFP, M-4 B, Table M-4 and Attachment 5, L-5, Relevancy Matrix. The RFP Relevancy Criteria in the final version was sequenced based on order of importance; however, the sequence in the Relevancy Matrix was not changed so the two are in different sequences. For ease of evaluation, which sequence would the Government prefer we use to sequence our 45 page citation information?

Answer: Either order is acceptable.
