About this file

This document contains questions and answers regarding Solicitation FA441720Q0001 for integrated solid waste management services at Hurlburt Field. The solicitation seeks refuse collection services in accordance with the attached performance work statement for the Department of the Air Force Special Operations Command. Offerors are no longer required to price out tipping fee CLINs in their quotes, as these CLINs have been changed to not-to-exceed amounts of $189,077.00 for the base year, $194,749.00 for the first option year, and $200,591.50 and $206,609.25 for the second and third option years, respectively. The CLIN for refuse service at commissary locations remains as a lot rather than monthly, encompassing work from all other CLINs strictly for those locations.

Solicitation Questions: FA441720Q0001 Integrated Solid Waste Management

Question 27: The answer to Q2 in Amendment 0002 states there are new tipping fee CLINs with NTE language, as follows:

Question 2. PWS 1.1.10 Vehicle Weighing states: “The Contractor shall be reimbursed for tipping fees according to submitted invoices.” Please confirm that the government will reimburse the actual disposal costs incurred regardless of the Unit Price the contractor bids on Line Item x005.

For example, if the contractor collects 250 tons during a given month and the disposal facility charges are $15,000 for that month, the government would reimburse the contractor $15,000.00 regardless of the Unit Price amount the contractor bid for x005. b) If this is correct, then it seems that the Unit Price for this Line Item for all years should be factored out or extended by the government for price evaluation purposes. This would avoid a contractor entering an unrealistically low price for the line item, to keep their price down, when the government would still be required to reimburse the contractor based upon the submitted disposal invoice. In the 2014 solicitation for these services the government provided a Not To Exceed amount for this CLIN for each year so that this Line Item was not manipulated for price evaluation purposes.

Answer: The government will reimburse actual disposal costs. The tipping fee CLIN has been changed to an NTE. Offerors are no longer required to price out this CLIN in their quote.

However, in the conformed copy of the Solicitation included in Amendment 0002 the CLIN has not changed and still reads the same. Please clarify.

*Due to a system issue it appears the NTE function is not showing up for its respective CLINS. Below are CLINs x018 that are NTE and their values:

0018: $189,077.00 1018: $194,749.00 2018: $200,591.50 3018: $206,609.25 4018: $212,807.50

Question 28: CLIN x019 for service of the Commissary locations is requested to be priced as a Lot. Should this not be Per Month like the other refuse service x001?

*x019 will remain Lot as it encompasses the work from all other CLINs, but strictly for the commissary locations.
