About this file

This is a Questions and Answers document providing government responses to contractor inquiries regarding a Performance Work Statement (PWS) for support services at Andrews Air Force Base, involving both Freedom Hall (Building 1628) and the 89th Airlift Wing (Building 1658).

The responses clarify several key contract requirements. Regarding storeroom functions and food account management for the 89th Airlift Wing, the government directed contractors to reference PWS Sections 2.4 and 2.7 in their entirety, as no separate summaries were available. The government confirmed that ground maintenance requirements under PWS 2.10.2 apply only to Freedom Hall Building 1628 and are not required for the 89th Airlift Wing Building 1658, clarifying the scope of work for the smaller facility. For security clearance requirements, the government specified that key personnel do not need active Secret security clearances on the contract start date; however, the contractor must independently obtain and maintain all required clearances rather than relying on USAF sponsorship. The government acknowledged that security clearance processing timelines are currently unknown, while base access will be coordinated between the contractor, the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR), and designated government points of contact.
