Please clarify:
A. Is the Schedule of Supplies/Services the same as the electronic Pricing Schedule spreadsheet or are they 2 different forms?
2 Different Forms
B. How many pricing forms are required to be submitted? Based on the statement above, seems like there are 3 different forms: 1. Schedule of Supplies/Services, 2. electronic Pricing Schedule spreadsheet, 3. Firm Fix Price (FFP) Contract Line Item Number (CLIN). In the solicitation package, there are only the Firm Fix Price (FFP) Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) and the excel electronic Pricing Schedule spreadsheet.
See Amendment
C. Price Proposal hard copy: page 208 of solicitation indicates that there are 6 tabs required for the Price proposal. None of the tabs ask to include the pricing information such as the CLIN and the Attachment 3-Pricing Schedule spreadsheet. Which tab should we include these pricing forms?
See Amendment
D. Price Proposal hard copy: page 207, section 4.1 indicates that “Offeror shall include a signed copy of the solicitation…”; page 208 Tab 1: Solicitation indicates that offeror include “a signed copy of SF1449”. Does the Government want the contractor to submit the entire signed 214-page solicitation in the Volume 1 or we just need to submit the signed SF1449 form (only page 1 and 2)?
Entire 214 page Solicitation
E. Price Proposal CD copy: Please confirm that the CD copy only contain the excel Attachment 3 - Pricing Schedule Supplies or Service excel spreadsheet. And in the CD, do not include The CLIN (pg 3 to 132), signed copy SF1449, signed copy of amendment, representation & certification, SBA office contact, Statement about financial, teaming agreement, and contractor services plan.

33. Technical proposal: Page 210 requires the contractor to provide “samples of all inspection forms, records, reports, and any other internal quality control method”. Just inspection forms, there could be 10+ different type of QC forms, do these samples count against the 30 pages limit?
Yes, See Amendment
34. Reference CAT 3 Academic Periodic CLINS X110 and X111: The data provided indicates we are to Strip and Wax all Hard Floor Surface plus the Restroom/Locker Room Floor Surface. However, it also indicates we are not required to Buff the Restroom/Locker Room Floor Surface. If the Restroom/Locker Room Floors require stripping and waxing then why would they not require Buffing?
See Appendix A p. 25 of 34, & PWS 1.3.1
35. Reference PWS 1.2.2 Restroom Floor Care: This section indicates the floors are ceramic tile based on cleaning grout lines. Do you require stripping and waxing of Ceramic Tile?

36. Reference PWS 1.1.5.3 Building 5570 Outdoor Trash Receptacles: How many trash receptacles are there? Since there is no specific frequency for exterior trash on Appendix A page 25 of 34, are we to assume from Appendix A they are emptied five days per week as specified in Facilities Services?
Appendix A for Level 3 service specifies trash removal is 5 times per week. There are currently 12 exterior trash cans located at building 5570.
37. Reference PWS 2.1 and 4.16. We see no requirement to provide a Quality Control Manager. Does the Government require a Quality Control Manager to be a different person than the Project Manager on this contract?
Since this is a performance based contract, the personnel structure is to be established by the contractor. Contractor should factor in the number of facilities, square footage, cleaning frequencies and PWS requirements when deciding whether or not to include a QCM.
38. Responses to questions dated March 11, 2015, stated no site visit will be held and therefore offerors not familiar with the base or proximity of buildings will not be able to determine man hours required and logistics to accurately budget those resources. Please advise if we can get a count of the number of workers presently cleaning the building?
Requirement is performance based
39. Please provide the number of base employees and visitors on the bases. Also, please provide the monthly supply usage.
Information Not Available
