Questions & Answers #18-20

QUESTION #18 – We will potentially be on several teams for this solicitation. For the PPQ’s, will we need to ask our clients to complete a PPQ for each team that we are on, or will one PPQ per project suffice?

ANSWER #18 – Your clients do not need to complete a PPQ for each team in which you will participate.

The PPQ identifies the name of the firm and the relevant project being evaluated, not the proposed teams. We will include copies of the PPQ with each qualification package which indicates the firm as a prime contractor, subcontractor, outside associate, or consultant. The PPQ must clearly identify the firm being evaluated.

QUESTION #19 - You indicate in that answer that Part IIs are included in the 50-page count restriction.

We respectfully request that they NOT be included in the page count or that you would consider increasing the page limit…In our [package]…Sections A-G plus the required cover letter consume 39 pages of the 50 total, minimum. Leaving 11 pages for the Section H and Part IIs. Because the SF 330 General Instructions require we "include a separate Part II for EACH BRANCH OFFICE that has a key role on the team", our team has eleven (11) Part IIs, which means we have no pages left for our Section H.

I'm sure other teams may be in similar positions.

ANSWER #19 - We understand that the page limit is a concern for your team. However, the page limit will remain the same at 25 pages (50 double-sided pages). Please provide the relevant information that you feel supports your firm’s qualifications for this requirement and fits within the page limit.

QUESTION #20 - Just wanting to make sure you will accept an electronic package for the Solicitation…On the electronic copy do you want a CD submitted with hard copy or can we email the electronic copy.

ANSWER #20 - We request one hard copy and one electronic copy of the qualifications package IAW the Response Procedures in the Synopsis. An e-mail attachment or CD is acceptable. However, please note that we are not able to receive very large files by e-mail. If you send electronically, please use AMRDEC (https://safe.amrdec.army.mil/safe/) or follow up with Ms. Forgit no later than the due date and time and verify that we received it by e-mail.
