Question: The RFP says: “…offerors shall complete Section 1 of the Past Performance Questionnaire” I can’t find any Section 1. There is a section B. Is that the section we are supposed to fill out?

Answer: Pg 62 para (c) shall be changed to read to as such;

“As soon as practicable, offerors shall email the Past Performance Questionnaire (Attachment 4) to all points of contact (POCs) the offeror will be using to gather past performace information. Past Performance Questionnaires must be received by 9 CONS/LGCA not later than 29 JULY 2011. The POCs will complete the questionnaires and forward them by FAX to 530-634-3311 or e-mail to Andrew.gibson@beale.af.mil and/or john.pank@beale.af.mil RESPONDENTS TO THE QUESTIONNAIRES SHALL NOT SEND THE COMPLETED INFORMATION SHEETS BACK TO THE OFFEROR. Offerors shall follow-up with respondents to ensure they have completed the questionnaires.”
