Questions & Answers

1. The solicitation summary information on the Fed Biz Ops site indicates the Past Performance Worksheets and Questionnaires are due to the contracting office by 3:00 pm CST on Monday, 19 April 2010, yet the second to last paragraph (page 4) of Attachment 7 indicates they are due this Friday, 16 April 2010 by 3:00 pm CST. Which is correct?

All Past Performance Information (Summary List, Past Performance Worksheets and Past Performance Questionnaires) are due Monday, 19 Apr 2010 by 3:00 pm CST via email or fax.

2. The same paragraph indicates the Past Performance forms should be e-mailed or faxed, yet paragraph 3 on page 3 indicates they must be submitted as hardcopy plus (3) copies AND two (2) electronic copies on CD-ROMs and those had to be on a separate CD-ROM from the Technical Proposal and Price Proposal. Given the purpose of the Paperwork Reduction Act (U.S. Code, Title 44, Chapter 35), is it safe to assume that the Past Performance Documents may be submitted by e-mail or fax?

3. According to the information, it appears that funds have been set aside for veterans, disable veterans, and small businesses. I am inquiring if in order to be able to compete in this bidding process, is it required that the veteran's status be a "disable veteran."

This acquisition is being set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) only.
