Question Answer

In section L 2.3 Specific Instructions of the solicitation, offerors are to submit a breakdown to the component level of the 48 Divisions including materials, labor, and equipment. Can you please provide more detail on what is to be provided? Can you provide an example or sample? For example: Drywall and Metal Studs: scissor lift, screws, tape, beads, 4 man crew, metal framing, sheetrock. Is this what you are looking for?

We cannot provide a sample at this time. Use your best judgment to meet the intent of the requirement.

In the drawings, see below, it calls for 3‐5/8" metal stud framing. The specs however make no reference to metal studs and in fact reference wood framing.

Assume cold‐formed metal framing. The wood framing referenced is for in‐wall blocking.

Does is mean that acquisition/teaming‐up is a requirement for submitting a proposal?

This is a term used to identify the key individuals proposed on the current acquisition, which could include teaming partners. The PPI tool is a tool that is used for many different types of acquisitions, and it may be that not all portions are applicable to this acquisition. It does not mean that teaming‐up is a requirement for submitting a proposal.
