a) Does the government have a specific list of materials, parts and supplies the contractor will be required to have available “on hand” to make repairs?

Answer: No. The intent is not to provide additional tools, materials, parts and supplies above and beyond what is required in the performance of the PMI. The intent is to correct minor deficiencies and perform necessary adjustments during the PMI as a preventative measure to ensure reliable and continuous safe operation of the door. Examples may include: replacing missing fasteners, snugging loose fasteners, adjusting spring or cable tension, etc.

b) Will said materials, parts and supplies be billable items or should the contractor factor the cost of materials, parts and supplies into PMI and Service call rates?

Answer: Minor corrective maintenance performed as a preventative measure as called out in paragraph

2.1.1.3 should be considered in the PMI. Minor corrective maintenance performed during a service call is billable under the service call provided prior authorization is obtained from the COR per paragraph 2.2.1.
