| Question Number | PWS Sect | Page | Paragraph | Question | Discussion | Answer | Date Submitted | Date Posted |
| R-1 | 3 | 3-FA-1 | Buildings misidentified | Bldg 47 is the "Test Cell" not Engine Shop. Bldg 141 is the T-38/Supply SF. Bldg 154 is Transient Alert. Bldg 170 is Wash Rack. Bldg 195 is T-6/Supply. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-2 | 6 | 6B-3 | 6B.8 | Are the aircraft numbers in the table correct? | The T-6 and T-38 numbers do not match the numbers in Section 3. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-3 | 3 | 3-1-2 | 3.1.1.3.1 | Are there portions of Chapter 8 that are applicable or is the entire chapter applicable as written? | Paragraph 3.1.28 of this PWS requires the service provider to develop a Quality Control Plan detailing how they will implement and manage the quality assurance plan and goes on to include requirements that must be addressed in this plan. There are differences in what paragraph 3.1.28 of the PWS and what chapter 8 of AFI 21-101 require. Currently the first paragraph in chapter 8 of AFI 21-101 says "contracted organizations shall use the accepted quality program outlines in their respective contract." | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-4 | 3 | 3-1-4 | 3.1.2.3 | This paragraph lists the airfield operational hours on Sunday as "from 1200 to 1700." Will these hours be constant or will they change as they currently do? | The airfield hours currently change from week to week and especially on the weekend before night flying. If the field hours are established and do not change we need to know this in order to plan accordingly. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-5 | 3 | 3-1-5 | 3.1.3.4.1 | Is weekend flying to be included in target cost? Also, reference to Section B is invalid. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-6 | 3 | 3-1-6 | 3.1.4.4.1 | No reference to "T" shirts. Are they allowed with Company/Union logo? | Currently T-shirts with Company/Union logo are authorized. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-7 | 3 | 3-1-6 | 3.1.7.2 | Is the service provider to use AFOSH 91-100 exclusively or are we allowed to use OSHA or other applicable safety regs? | Several work centers have specific safety regulations they are to follow. For instance the fuel shop must adhere to 29 CFR 1910.146. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-8 | 3 | 3-1-9 | 3.1.17.2 | What is the work load estimate for "minor maintenance" of the flight line? | Since the shelters have been recently installed there is no work load estimate for maintaining them. We want to be sure we understand customer expectations. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-9 | 3 | 3-1-9 | 3.1.17.2 | What parts of the shelters will require minor paint? | Since the shelters have been recently installed there is no work load estimate for maintaining them. We want to be sure we understand customer expectations. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-10 | 3 | 3-1-9 | 3.1.17.2 | What degree of cleanliness/contamination will require action? | Since the shelters have been recently installed there is no work load estimate for maintaining them. We want to be sure we understand customer expectations. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-11 | 3 | 3-1-9 | 3.1.17.2 | Will bird netting be required to be removed to perform any of the actions? | Since the shelters have been recently installed there is no work load estimate for maintaining them. We want to be sure we understand customer expectations. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-12 | 3 | 3-1-9 | 3.1.17.4 | Table. "Entrances, stairs, landings, corridors free of dust" Please explain. | In an industrial environment in Oklahoma, this is an unrealistic expectation. If the government wants this enforced, it will be very costly. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-13 | 3 | 3-1-8 | 3.1.17.1 | Table. Do these standards in the table replace the requirements in paragraphs 3.1.17.4 and 3.1.17.4.1? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-14 | 3 | 3-1-10 | 3.1.17.5 | Last sentence: Contractor is responsible for clean up after a wing or government sponsored event? Please clarify. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-15 | 3 | 3-1-12 | 3.1.19.2.2 | Is this statement necessary? | This appears to be a "service provider" requirement or responsibility. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-16 | 3 | 3-1-13 | 3.1.21 | Why are there so many stipulations for training? Mandating a training structure adds cost and doesn't necessarily improve production or the quality of work. | In a military organization training plays an important role in force management, career field management, readiness, deployability, promotion, and retention, discipline, and organizational metrics. Contractors have none of these concerns. For a contract operation there are only four important training requirements: 1. Is each employee adequately trained to perform the tasks they are assigned to perform? 2. Is training documentation accurate? 3. Is each employee fully productive? 4. Are employees sufficiently trained to meet production goals? The last 2 are adequately driven by production goals. A mechanic helper with a fraction of his training completed can be fully productive, all day, everyday. Thus, if his training is never completed, it's of little consequence. Some employees cannot perform certain tasks because of physical or mental limitations; yet the employee can be fully productive. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-17 | 3 | 3-1-13 | 3.1.21.1 | AETC 21-112 is the instruction specifically written for Contractors so why include AFI 21-101 as well? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-18 | 3 | 3-1-13 | 3.1.21.2 | Should the reference "3.1.4.1" be "3.1.4.2"? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-19 | 3 | 3-1-13 | 3.1.21.1 | Should the reference "3.1.4.1" be "3.1.4.2"? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-20 | 3 | 3-1-14 | 3.1.21.7 | Line 3 talks about initials in the training records. Para 3.1.21.7 says the service provider may use automated training records. Will the initials requirement be waived if the automated system is used or will the service provider have to develop a way for the trainer and individual to validate the training? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-21 | 3 | 3-1-15 | 3.1.21.8.2 | Will the "incumbent" and "successor" be better defined in this paragraph? | The concern is that the incumbent becomes the successor and thus recertification becomes a huge issue. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-22 | 3 | 3-1-15 | 3.1.21.9.1 | Can the minimum requirement for one year maintenance experience on a specific MDS be waived? | Without the ability to wave this requirement on a case by case basis when a technician transfers from one MDS to another they would not be able to perform their duties as a Lean man or Sr Mechanic for one year. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-23 | 3 | 3-1-16 | 3.1.21.9.2 | Does the minimum experience required (10 years) to sign an exceptional release apply to all exceptional releases or just those in which a red X was downgraded? | Need clarification on exactly what is required. Do you need 10 years experience to downgrade a red X and/or sign an exceptional release? | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-24 | 3 | 3-1-17 | 3.1.22.5 | Service provider appointed QAR for CFT could be a contractual problem with one contractor overseeing another contractor's work performed. Currently the government performs this function. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-25 | 3 | 3-1-20 | 3.1.22.15.3 | Does this mean that each recovery must be approved before the crew departs? | This could delay the return of aircraft to mission ready if the CO is not available for approval. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-26 | 3 | 3-1-20 | 3.1.22.15.4 | Where is the map that is mentioned in 3.1.22.15.4 as being in appendix 3BB? | The "Western Area" seems to be somewhat smaller than the area now covered by Vance AFB. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-27 | 3 | 3-1-25 | 3.1.23.4.1 | Why does the DOM not have the authority to waive this requirement based on daily activity of the mechanics on the flightline? | If the aircraft only flew one go and the mechanics have not been launching and recovering all day then they should be able to exceed the 3 BPO requirement. The service provider DOM should have the authority to waive this requirement. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-28 | 3 | 3-1-25 | 3.1.23.4.3 | Is this function going to be taken away from the FSR? | Currently, we do the downloads and some analyzing, but we have no procedure for storing data. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-29 | 3 | 3-1-25 | 3.1.23.4.6 | First sentence. Should it be 7 days versus 5 days? | Using 5 days will, in many cases, make the requirement due on a weekend. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-30 | 3 | 3-1-26 | 3.1.23.6 | Is this giving us authority to keep equipment to work on the ARC 164 UHF radio or to work on the COMBS furnished items? | The UHF radios that are currently in the base GOV's are the radios used in the T-37 and the T-38A/ The T-38A is now gone and the T-37 soon will be. When that happens, all of the back shop support equipment will be turned in and parts will also be hard, if not impossible, to obtain. The base radio control authority has been made aware of the dilemma and is attempting to accrue different radios. These units will probably not be the same as are in the aircraft and will need to be maintained by an outside contractor. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-31 | 3 | 3-1-34 | 3.1.26.3 | Should the reference to "PWS Paragraph 3.1.26.1" be "PWS Paragraph 3.1.26.2"? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-32 | 3 | 3-1-35 | 3.1.26.7 | Are these requirements for a new hangar or will there be an adjustment to bring hangar 192 into compliance? | Currently, paint hangar 192 has no air lock doors. It has only a single bay; the ceiling has never been cleaned (the ceiling has insulation on it); and the floor has a large amount of paint build-up. It is a 35 year old facility with 35 years of build-up on everything in it. To comply with these requirements, we will need to thoroughly clean and paint the interior. Also, the ceiling would need to have some type of waterproof covering to allow a water wash. A rough estimate would be 750 man hours to bring it into compliance, and then add an extra day (5 men x 8 hours = 40 man hours) on to each paint job for the water wash of the facility. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-33 | 3 | 3-1-55 | 3.1.31.5 | Why is this statement in here twice? | See Para 3.1.22.15.5. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-34 | 3 | 3-2-2 | 3.2.1 | 5th line - Should fleet time for T-6 be 125? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-35 | 3 | 3BB-1 | 3BB.2.f | Why are the estimates for Survival shop so far off? | All the numbers are way short of actuals. For example, the charts shows 29 T-6 parachutes and the actual number is, or will be, 228. The rest of the numbers are also way off. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-36 | 3 | 3-BB-3 | 3BB.3 | Is 21 spare J-85 engines the correct number? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-37 | 6 | 6-2-1 | 6.1.1.2 | If the government is paying for satisfactory performance, then why is a 4.5 out of 5.0 or higher required on service critiques? | Critiques should be acceptable from 3 to 5 with 3 being satisfactory and 5 being outstanding. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-38 | 6 | 6-1-1 | 6.1.1.4.3 | Does a Life Support QC inspector fit this requirement? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-39 | 6 | 6-1-1 | 6.1.1.5 | Is this statement necessary? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-40 | 6 | 6-1-2 | 6.1.1.6 | Will the provider be allowed to use an approved automated training record as described in Section 3? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-41 | 6 | 6-1-2 | 6.1.1.6 | Must the service provider use the 1T1X1 (CFETP) to identify core tasks? | The CFETP lists general tasks that may or may not apply to the type of equipment maintained. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-42 | 6 | 6-1-2 | 6.1.1.7 | "Shall ensure the Life Support facility meets minimum standards prescribed in 15X-1-1." How can the standards be enforced when the facility does not meet design standards of 15X-1-1? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-43 | 6 | 6-1-2 | 6.1.1.13.2 | How can the service provider be responsible for all the "security, inspection and maintenance" of the equipment in the Aerospace Physiology Unit? | The equipment in the APU is used not just by LS personnel but also by AF personnel. The responsibility should be on the use. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-44 | 6 | 6-2-1 | 6.1.1.14 | How can the contractor control military personnel to ensure they show up for scheduled training to ensure they do not go overdue? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-45 | 6 | 6-1-3 | 6.1.1.14.3 | Does this requirement conflict with the responsibilities in AFI 11-301 Para 2.1.4.2? | AFI 11-301 paragraph 2.1.4.2 has the responsibility of flight clothing for passengers and inventive flyers listed as the Aircraft Commander. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-46 | 6 | 6-1-4 | 6.1.1.21 | What is the guideline for "sufficient number of technicians"? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-47 | 6 | 6-1-4 | 6.1.1.22 | Is this not the responsibility of the respective Wing LSO? | Currently, we cover these items in our initial/continuation training. There should be no need to have another briefing. Ref: 11-301. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-48 | 6 | 6-1-5 | 6.1.1.28 | Is the service provider expected to perform Quality Inspections on Government Employees? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-49 | 6 | 6-1-5 | 6.1.1.29 | Does the contractor have to comply with AFOSH? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-50 | 6 | 6A-2 & 6A-3 | Reference AFOSH Std 91-100. Does the contractor have to comply? | 8-Sep-06 | ||||
| R-51 | 10 | 10-1-1 | 10.1 | Is this correct concerning dorm rooms (308)? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-52 | 17 | 17-2-1 | 3 | How can a contractor hold emergency work to 1/2% of total work orders received? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-53 | 17 | 17-1-2 | 17.1.4 through 17.1.4.10 | Why was this included in Energy and Utility Management? It does not belong to this section. | This is Operations and Services and belong in Section 15. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-54 | 17 | 17-3-1 | 17.3.3 | What is XX? And what is "Compressed work Friday"? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-55 | 17 | 17-3-1 | 17.3.7 | Are there 2 elevated storage towers? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-56 | 17 | 17-3-1 | 17.3.9 | Define "XX". | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-57 | 18 | SDSs | How can a contractor have "zero" customer complaints? This is unrealistic. | The SDSs are capricious and arbitrary. The majority require no discrepancies or zero defects. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-58 | 18 | 18-1-3 | 18.1.7 through 18.1.7.11 | Since when does the Fire Marshall work for the Fire Chief? You have confused this position with the Chief of Fire Prevention. | This requirement is wrong! Qualifications in 6.1.8.1 are wrong. Call AETC/A7F. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-59 | 18 | 18-1-3 | 18.1.7 | Which paragraph is this referring to? | Paragraph reference 6.1.8.1 is invalid. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-60 | 18 | 18A-2 | Why are AFOSH standards referenced? | Contractors are exempt from AFOSH standards! | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-61 | 18 | 18B-1 | 1.1 | How many firefighters are required to meet minimum fire department manning? | Your figures (18 + 6 = 23) are incorrect. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-62 | 18 | 18B-1 | 1.1.6 | Appendix 18E says the Director of Civil Engineering is the Fire Marshall. Is this congruent with 18B 1.1.6? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-63 | 18 | 18-I-1 | Fire Marshall & 18.1.7 | Which the correct list of requirements for the Fire Marshall? | These two references are not in harmony. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-64 | 19 | 19-B-1 | 1.1.6 & 18.1.7 | Since the AF does not permit smoking in their facilities, where are the cigarette butt containers located and how many are there? How often are they serviced? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-65 | 21 | 21-1-1 | 21.1.1.1 | Is the service provider to provide Quality Assurance personnel? | Paragraph 21.1..1.1 states provider is expected to perform all duties and tasks associated with airfield management listed in AFI 13-213 except listed exclusions. AFI 13-213 para Quality Assurance is not excluded. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-66 | 21 | 21-1 | 21.1.1.1 | What are the specific training requirements for the Airfield Management Operations Manager, Airfield Management Shift Lead, Airfield Management Operations personnel and administrative support? | Section 2.1, para 2.1.5.1 requires all personnel assigned to a position to be fully qualified prior to assuming a position. AFI 13-213 para 1.3.3 states contractor duty positions and responsibilities must be outline in a MAJCOM or AFFSA approved statement of work or equivalent. AFI 13-213 Chapter 7 addresses specific military training requirements for military skill levels not contractors. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-67 | 21 | 21-1-2 | 21.1.2.2.1 | What is Base Airfield Driver's program? | Paragraph 21.1.2.3.4 and AFI 13-213 refer to Flightline Driver's program. There is no reference for Airfield Driver's Program. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-68 | 21 | 21-1-2 | 21.1.2.3.4 | Who will be responsible for signing AF Form 483, Certificate of Competency for Flightline Driving? | Paragraph 21.1.2.3.4 states the service provider will develop and mange the flightline drivers program. AFI 13-213 AETC SUP1 states only the AFM, DAFM and NCOIC Airfield Operations may sign the AF Form 483. None of these positions are identified in the Statement of Work. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-69 | 21 | 21-1 | 21.1.2.13 | How specifically does Airfield Management maintain the RCS? | Paragraph 21.1.2.13 states "maintain runway control structures (RCS)" | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-70 | 28 | 28-1-1 | 28.1.2.2 | Can official meetings and private event be quantified? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-71 | 28 | 28-1-8 | 28.1.3.3.4 | Can the difference between School Age Coordinator and School Age Site Director be defined? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-72 | 28 | 28-1-3 | 28.1.6.4 | Can Command, Air Force and Wing sponsored events be defined? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-73 | 28 | 28-1-7 | 28.1.9 | Why is the Teen Center not included in youth programs? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-74 | 28 | 28-1-13 | 28.1.19.3 | Who (customers) will be exchanging bed linens on a one-for-one basis? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-75 | 28 | 28-1-8 | 28.1.9.4 | Is this 6 hours training in addition to the 12 hours required by 28.1.9.3? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-76 | 28 | 28-2-1 | 28.2 Item 2 | How will the items such as size of the building and other facility requirements that are not controllable by the contractor be graded? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-77 | 28 | 28-2-2 | 28.2 Item 6 | Are all programs required to have Advisory Committees and who is required to be on the committees? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-78 | 28 | 28-3-2 | 28.3.2 | This is the only reference to ITT. Will there be more information coming? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-79 | 28 | 28-3-5 | 28.3.9.1 | Can 40? Digital and 12? Dial up internet a total of 12 workstations be defined? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-80 | FF | Appendix FF | The vehicle list in Appendix FF of each section seems outdated. | 8-Sep-06 | ||||
| R-81 | 19 | 19-B-1 | Appendix 19-B | Are these the current standards for FY07 and beyond? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-82 | 28 | 28-1-1 | 28.1 | How do you bid on something that states "consist of but not limited to"? New SOW implies that the contractor will provide all of the Health and Wellness Center (HAWC). Is that true? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-83 | 28 | 28-1-1 | 28.1 | Do you intend for the service provider to do marketing for each activity? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-84 | 28 | 28-1-1 | 28.1.1 | What emergency preparation, ride-out and recovery action are being referred to? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-85 | 19 | 19.B-7 | Cust. Serv. Facil. List | Is this facilities list accurate? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-86 | 19 | 19-1-1 | 19.1.1 | We weren't able to enter this information into IWIMS. We don't have ACES fully employed yet. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-87 | 16 & 10 | 2-1-14 16-11 & 30 | 2.1.10.5 & 16.1.10.1 | Why is there a limit on the number of service provider personnel trained in the proper procedures to include spill response cleanup related to performance of this contract? Who is the acting on-site authorized agent referring to - the contractor or the QAE? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-88 | 10 | 2-1-14, 2-1-15, 2-1-17 | 2.1.10.9, 2.1.10.10, 2.1.10.11, 2.1.10.18.2, 2.1.10.12.2 | Who does the Environmental Flight refer to - government or service contractor? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-89 | 10 | 2-1-14 | 2.1.10.10 | 10 working day asbestos notifications are signed by the MSG/CC. Why down to the Environmental Flight? All waste manifests are signed by the QAE. Why down to the Environmental Flight? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-90 | 10 & 16 | 2-1-15 & 16-15 | 2.1.10.11.4 2.1.10.12.1 & 16.1.11.7 | Who are unit environmental coordinators? | Vance does not currently have them. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-91 | 10 | 2-1-16 | 2.1.10.17 | Who does the base environmental coordinator and CEV refer to - the service provider or the government? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-92 | 10 | 2-1-15 | 2.1.10.12 | All waste manifests are coordinated and signed by the QAE prior to transport of any waste materials from the boundary of the base. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-93 | 10 | 2-1-16 | 2.1.10.16 | This is significant workload increase and refers to the LG Environmental Coordinator Program. Vance currently does not have the LG Environmental Coordinator Program. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-94 | 10 | 2-1-17 | 2.1.10.20 | Does the current language indicate this task to someone else? | Should be changed from ECAMP to ESOHCAMP. Currently the service provider takes the lead in heading up their internal ESOHCAMP process. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-95 | 10 & 16 | 2-1-17 & 16-16 | 2.1.10.21 & 16.1.11.18 | The service provider does not submit AF Form 813s because the service provider will never be the proponent in the NEPA process. The proponent of the action submits the AF Form 813. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-96 | 10 | 2-1-17 | 2.1.10.23 | Where in the FAR is authority given to the Environmental Flight to initiate shutdown of operations if discrepancies could lead to environmental violations? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-97 | 10 & 16 | 2-1-18 & 16-17 | 2.1.10.27 & 16.1.11.21 | Why does the Environmental Flight need to assist in the characterizing of wastewaters generated? Why is there a requirement to pretreat waste? | The last sentence of 2.1.10.27 makes a determination of an individual's statement of mind which is a legal determination and needs to be reworded. The base's wastewater treatment plant was closed down and currently the service provider does not perform any pre-treatment of the above mentioned wastewaters. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-98 | 10 | 2-1-18 | 2.1.10.29 | The AF's EMS will migrate to ESOHMS pending approval of AFI 90-802. The EMS is an ISO 14001 like system and has nothing to do with OHSAS 18001 standards. The sentence needs to be corrected accordingly. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-99 | 16 | 16-1 | 16.1.1.1 | Is this a good use of taxpayer's dollars having the service provider route all written communication with HQ AETC/CE and outside agencies through the CO and COTR? | This is micromanaging and such a request would hinder the work performed by the service provider. Courtesy copying the CO or COTR should be sufficient. This was removed from the current contract and SOW some time ago. ///// This will not allow us to perform as well as we can. This will not allow us to meet obligations on time. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-100 | 16 | 16-3 | 16.1.1.13 | Why is it necessary for the staff to have training in developing this document for base signatures? | Manifests are developed by the transporters. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-101 | 16 | 16-3 | 16.1.1.14 | Why is it necessary to do this monthly? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-102 | 16 | 16-3 | 16.1.3.1 | How is this QA'ed? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-103 | 16 | 16-4 | 16.1.3.5.1 | Define the term "full-blown" in this section. Who determines this based on this terminology? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-104 | 16 | 16-4 and 16-9 | 16.1.3.8, 16.1.8 & 16.1.8.1 | This appears to apply to the restoration program. Does the government plan to have the service provider manage this program? | The way it is written the contractor would be responsible for all of the financial aspects of the program without having any direct control. The AF provides money on an annual basis to the Restoration Program which is managed my Civilian personnel. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-105 | 16 | 16-5 | 16.1.5.2 | This process is already completed. Why is it here? | The last sentence implies the service provider will be penalized if the AF or Civilian personnel do not complete EMS awareness training within 90 duty days of assignment. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-106 | 16 | 16-5 to 16-7 | 16.1.5.4 to 16.1.5.10 | The above referenced sections are not a function of the Environmental Branch but of the Quality Program. Why are they included in this section of the RFP? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-107 | 16 | 16-8 | 16.1.7.2 | This section is not very clear and raises concerns regarding the government having the ability to control the service provider's directives, instructions and regulations. If they are referring to directives, instructions and regulations then it needs to state this specifically. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-108 | 16 | 16-7 | 16.1.7.1 | This is a duplicate of Section 16.1.7.1. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-109 | Kt | 16-8 | 16.1.7.6 | A decrease or no change in contract price is determined by whom? How can the service provider be responsible for the change? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-110 | 16 | 16-9 | 16.1.8.2 | Because permit numbers can change during the course of a contract, is it wise to include them specifically? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-111 | 16 | 16-9 | 16.1.8.3 | Shouldn't this be maintained by the individual shops? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-112 | 16 | 16-10 | 16.1.9.3 | The last sentence is unreachable. | Mississippi Kites are migratory birds, and the treatment methods should be set by the MSG/CC as directed in the permit. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-113 | 16 | 16-11 | 16.1.9.9 | AFI 32-1053 does not require the coordination of the pest management plan to be coordinated by the installation Environmental QAP. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-114 | 16 | 16-11 | 16.1.9.10 | This is not clear. AFI 32-1053 states to maintain and update, but reporting is not required. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-115 | 16 | 16-12 | 16.1.10.4 & 16.1.10.7 | This is a Safety function and not a function of the Environmental Branch. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-116 | 16 | 16-12 | 16.1.10.9 | EPC does not exist within the AF. It has been replaced with ESOHC. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-117 | 16 | 16-12 | 16.1.11.1 | This appears to be an incomplete statement. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-118 | 16 | 16-15 | 16.1.11.7 | This seems to be an incomplete statement. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-119 | 16 | 16-15 | 16.1.11.13 | This is too specific and should not be directed by the government. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-120 | 16 | 16-2 | Threshold #1 | This rating system makes the rating of the QAP more valuable than that of the senior leaders on base. Is this what the government intended? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-121 | 16 | 16-2-1 | Threshold #3 | Who will provide this survey? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-122 | 16 | 16-2-1 | Threshold #3 | This base is only required to maintain status permits, fees and must pays. The permits on base are required due to the nature of the work performed here and can't be reduced. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-123 | 16 | 16-I-1 | Head of Env Mgt | This requirement is not clear. Do you want someone with an engineering degree or natural or physical sciences degree? Does it matter? | It seems excessive and restrictive to require the head of environmental management to have 10 years practical experience and 4 years experience in the federal government. Also, the education states engineering requirements as well as natural or physical sciences but the last 2 columns apply to a person without an engineering degree. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-124 | 16 | 1 | 16.1 | What is the ESOHMS policy? Is it the same as the commanders EMS policy statement? | ESOHMS is not applicable until the new AFI is approved. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-125 | 16 & 10 | 2 & 30 | 16.1.1.2 & 2.1.10.5 | Isn't the Safe Water Drinking Act (SWDA) managed by the Bioenvironmental Flight? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-126 | 16 | 8 | 16.1.3.3 | Are we or should we be the policing authority for this? | Para 16.1.3.3 states: Verify that only certified personnel operate equipment and manage operations that require certification by environmental regulations. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-127 | 16 | 8 | 16.1.3.5.1 | Internal audits should be conducted as the contractor sees necessary. Full-blown audits each year are not necessary. | ESOHCAMO misspelled. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-128 | 16 | 9 | 16.1.3.6 | This requirement means we operate 24/7. Would require someone to be on call on weekends. | Par 16.1.1.4 states: To operate environmental programs during normal working hours Monday through Friday. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-129 | 16 | 11 | 16.1.5.3 | Who is the EMS management team? ESOHC? | ESOHMS is the correct acronym. EMS will evolve into ESOHMS. Not correct to refer to the EMS as "also know as ESOHMS." The implementation of EMS is an ISO "like" system. To say it follows ISO requirements is not correct. It also has nothing to do with OHSAS 18001. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-130 | 16 | 17 | 16.1.7.3 | To me this means we, at the resident professionals, would have to have all regs, etc interpreted first by the CO. How can we do our jobs this way? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-131 | 16 | 36 | 16.1.11.17 | Second sentence is not correct. | Sentence in question: "Government ESOHCAMP evaluations are performed annually by an external team (personnel outside the unit/base) and/or an internal team (personnel from the base)." | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-132 | 16 | 39 | 16.1.12.1 | Does this belong in the Environmental Section? | Sentence in question: "The service provider shall participate and support surveys, studies and tests of systems upgrades and changes relating to computer hardware, software, systems, etc. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-133 | 16 | 42 | 16.1.13.3 | Current contractor doesn't provide transportation. | 8-Sep-06 | |||

| R-136 | 10 | 34 | 2.1.10.12.3 | What does this mean? | Sentence in question: "Perform housekeeping and spill prevention duties IAW current guidelines. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-137 | 2 | 2-1-21 | 2.1.13.7 & 16.1.1.1 | Section 2.1.13.7 conflicts with Section 16.1.1.1 Page 2. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-138 | 2 | 2-1-26 | 2.1.20.1 | Does this relate to aircraft maintenance only? Or to all other correspondence? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-139 | 13 | 13-1-2 | 13.1.1.9 | Are the grounds to receive daily attention? | Remove the sentence stating: "These high visibility grounds shall be maintained in such a manner to meet the following appearance requirements each day of contract performance period." | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-140 | 13 | 13-1-2 | 13.1.1.10 | Why are we asked to "plan" these events? | We will "support and coordinate" all Special Events. However, I do not believe it is our responsibility to plan. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-141 | 13 | 13-1-3 | 13.1.3 | What maintenance is expected in "unimproved grounds"? | Define the maintenance level as "none", "1 mowing per year", "2 mowings per year", etc. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-142 | 13 | 13-1-8 | 13.1.10.7 | What stray animal facility? Where is this facility located? What type of maintenance is required? | No current stray animal facility. No current contractor control for domestic animals. This service is provided by the City of Enid. Current contractor does not transport nor relocate stray animals nor "net" animals - wild or domestic. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-143 | 13 | 13-B-1 | 3.1 | Are area estimates correct? | Paved roads should read 260,455 sq yds (vs 225,838 sq yds) to reflect recently completed pavement work. Vehicle parking areas should read 257,400 sq yds (vs 221,885) to reflect newly constructed parking lots. | 8-Sep-06 | ||

| R-145 | 11 | 4-B-1 | 2.1 | What is the correct number of facilities? | This paragraph shows 738 Wing facilities. AF Form 7115 shows 687 facilities. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-146 | 11 | 4-B-1 | 5 | How many vehicles are we expected wash weekly? Why can't washing of vehicles be donw on an "as needed basis"? | Requires each vehicle be cleaned and washed on a weekly basis. This is not a clear requirement. CE has numerous vehicles that are not used on a daily or weekly basis. Therefore, there should be no reason to clean and wash them weekly. Also this clearly goes against water conservation. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-147 | 11 | 4-B-2 | 9.2 | Is the underground utility estimate correct? | The draft SOW states the base has 123,940 LF of underground utility to maintain. This should be changed to read 127,140 LF. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-148 | 11 | 4-B-2 | 9.6.1 | Is the cooling system inventory correct? | 8-Sep-06 | |||

| R-151 | 11-1 | 4-B-4 | 9.2.3 | Facility number 708 should be replaced with facility number 601. Bldg 708 has been demolished. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-152 | 11 | 4-B-6 | 9.5.2 | Are fluid storage capactity estimates correct? | The paragraph addresses fluid storage capacities at Kegelman AAF. There are no above ground tanks at Kegelman. The water lines and fire hydrants were recently replaced. There are currently 3 active fire hydrants at Kegelman AAF. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-153 | 11 | 4-B-7 | 10.7.2 | How many cathodic protection systems are there and what types? | The paragraph reflects the "Sacrifical Anode" fields located at Vance AFB.

| R-155 | 11 | 4-B-14 | 12 | Is this section of the SOW complete? | The following paragraph should be added to the draft SOW: "Maintain and operate the thermal storage plant located by facility 672. The plant consists of 2 460 ton chillers and a 630,000 gallon storage tank. The system includes around 6,600 feet of underground piping and supplies chilled water to 8 facilities." | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-156 | 11 | 4-B-15 | 10.8.1 | Are estimates for exterior lights correct? | The information pertaining to the number of exterior lights in the draft SOW is incorrect and should reflect the following numbers: 10.8.1 Base street lights 75 lights & 75 poles; 10.8.2 Base parking ares 245 lights & 215 poles; 10.8.3 Aircraft parking lights 44 lights & 11 poles; 10.8.4 MFH Street Lights 58 lights & 58 poles + 118 pole mounted yard lights The following are additional lights that are not listed and should be included in the SOW: Ballpark, Running Track, Tennis Court & Golf Driving Range have a combined total of 106 lights & 31 poles | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-157 | 11 | 4-B-15 | 12.6.2 | Is the information pertaining to fire deluge pumps correct? | The draft SOW describes facility 190 as having 3 GMC engine driven fire deluge pumps. This information is incorrect. The facility is equipped with 3 new electric variable speed pumps that were installed durig the construction of facility 199. | 8-Sep-06 | ||

How many functions/exercises per year? | Sub paragraph 1 requires the service contract to provide portapotties for base functions and exercises when required. Need specific functions and exercises listed for planning purposes. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-162 | 11 | 11-2-1 | 4th SDS - Perform Objs | What SRPIE equipment are we referring to? Can we have a list of SRPIE? Can you provide pertinent information on type, age, condition, etc? | Provide economical maintenance, repair, construction, operations and services functions for similar real property installed equipment (SRPIE). Gov't needs to provide a complete list of SRPIE equipment. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-163 | 11 | 11-2-5 & 11-1-3 | Perform Objs & 11-2.7.12 | Where is the range located? What are the facilities at the range? What kind of maintenance is required? How often must maintenance be performed? To what standard? | Maintain No-Drop Bombing Range | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-164 | 11 | 11-2-10 & 11-2-11 | 11.2.16.1 11.2.16.2 11.2.16.4 11.2.16.5 | Why are these references shown in the Performance Objectives for O&M? | 11.2.16 Shows to be "Reserved". Remove these references from Section 11-2. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-165 | 11 | 11-3-1 | 11.3.1 | What exactly is/are being considered "Critical Assets"? How can processes be designed and implementd without a clear definition of "Critical Assets"? | This paragraph addresses "Critical Assets". | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-166 | 11 | 11-1-7 | 11.2.13.3 | Why is it necessary to have materials on hand 6 weeks (45 days) prior to work being scheduled? | This paragraph requires planned work to have all materials on hand at least 45 days prior to work being scheduled. This limits our responsiveness to the customer. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-167 | 11 | 11-1-3 | 11.2.8 | Is 80% a realistic factor? What is the current backlog of unplanned work orders? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-168 | 11 | 11-1-5 | 11.2.10.2 | Shouldn't the number 30 be changed to 10? | This paragraph requires completion of 30 Planned Work Orders per month. I believe this to be an un-obtainable goal. At the present time we are completing 8 or 9 per month. We receive 12-15 work orders per month. If we complete 30 per month, the backlog would be exhausted in 4 to 6 months and the work force would be laid off. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-169 | 11 | 11-1-6 | 11.2.11 | Does this mean all employees involved with that trade must be licensed/certified? Or can only the lead be licensed? | State law does not require all personnel to be licensed. | 8-Sep-06 | ||

Or can it be performed by any qualified technician? | Sounds as if all maintenance performed on Aircraft Arresting systems must be performed by the Power Production shop. In the past, Fire Dept personnel were responsible for daily testing for proper operation, instpecting of netting and replacement of netting. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-171 | 11 | 11-1-7 | 11.2.14.2.4 | Please explain how the note on the top of page 11 relates to the requirement of this paragraph. | As written, the paragraph only applies to responses above 85 degrees F and below 40 degrees F. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-172 | 11 | 11-1-8 | 11.2.17.1 | Why must a contractor establish contracts to "clean windows, replace glass, etc" if the contractor is capable of performing the work in house? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-173 | 11 | 11-2-2 | 11.2.1 4th SDS | Can you provide examples of existing "short and long range cost effective maintenance strategies and programs appropriate to the mission"? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-174 | 11 | 11.2.3 11.2.4 & 11.2.5 | SDS Right Column | Please define "acceptable none". | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-175 | 11 | 11.2.6 | SDS | Aren't the SDSs overly restrictive and adversely affect the contractor's ability to respond to customer needs? | Ref SDSs on "manage the IWP" and "all work started must be completed within 60 days from the start date". | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-176 | 11 | 11.2.8 | How many DSWs are submitted each month? What % is 700 per month? | 8-Sep-06 | ||||
| R-177 | 11 | 11-2-10 | Please provide the correct paragraph. 11.2.14.2.7 does not exist. What does "acceptable none" mean? | Ref: Provide cleaning service duct work in the MFH area. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-178 | 11 | 11-A-2 | Appendix 11A | What is the correct reference? | AFM 91-31 is obsolete. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-179 | 11 | Appendix 13-FC | Appendix 13-FC is not correct. | 8-Sep-06 | ||||
| R-180 | 26 | 26-2-1 | 2 | Are the references for the first and last Performance Objectives incorrect? Isn't the proper reference for the first and last Performance Objective 26.1.1.4 and 26.1.1.6, respectively? Are the performance thresholds realistic? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-181 | 15 | 15-1-1 | 15.1 | Could you define "facilities master plan"? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-182 | 15 | 15-1-1 | 15.1 | Does "other AF mandated systems" include RPIR? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-183 | 15 | 15-1-2 | 15.1.1.1.6 | Does this paragraph require the community planner to prepare reports and/or letters related to real property? Does this paragraph require the community planner to prepare reports and letters related to airspace issues? Is it now required for the community planner to attend all the meetings stated? Is this paragraph requiring the community planner be the spokesman for the AF on planning issues at the City and/or County meetings? | Real property reports should be prepared by real property and coordinated through the community planner. The same with airspace issues that could affect the Wing's Mission (e.g. cell towers). Currently, these reports are prepared by airspace. They also should be coordinated through the community planner. In the past, the AF has aksed the community planner to attend certain Enid Planning Commission meetings as an observer only but have been very clear about not speaking for the AF. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-184 | 15 | 15-1-2 | 15.1.1.1.8 | Should "Flying Units" be replaced with "Airspace"? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-185 | 15 | 15-1-4 | 15.1.2.14 | What is the five year facility program? Is it the same as the facility board listing? What is the "facilities master plan"? | Not sure about this requirement. I would think the five-year facilities project program is the facility board listing and updated at least for each Facility Board. Not sure what the long range facility master plan is. The long range facility master plan should already be taken care of by the community planning vision map. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-186 | 15 | 15-1-9 | 15.1.6.2 | What is meant by GIS filing system? | 8-Sep-06 | |||

Are we graded on number of documents per year or per quarter? Are we required to program projects related to the Medical O&M program, DESC program and Environmental program? | Medical O&M program, DESC program and Environmental program should be included. Developing programming documents: With the increasing requirements involved with development of quality programming documents and an average of 24 projects funded per year, a benchmark of 50 would be more appropriate. The scale could be 30 or less is unsatisfactory; 30 or more is slightly above standards; 35 is mor than adequate; 40 exceeds standards; 45 is excellent; and 50 or more is outstanding. | 8-Sep-06 | ||

| R-190 | 15 | 15-2-4 | 15.2 Item 8 | What is meant by discrepancies in regards to the facility board? What are examples of discrepancies in regards to the facility board? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-191 | 15 | 15-3-1 | 15.3.1.2 | "Enhanced" should be changed to "Degraded"; and "Basic" should be changed to "Essential" to match AFI guidance. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-192 | 15 | 15-3-2 | 15.3.1.2.1 | Need to use the standard rating system as required by AETC which is currently Critical, Fact of Life, Degraded, and Essential for Impact rating. | This is what is required in ACES and AETC submittals. Therefore, it would be helpful to match. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-193 | 15 | 15-3-4 | 15.3.2 | Is the 180-200 days TDY paid for by the AF or paid for by the company? | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-194 | 15 | 15-A-2 | Appendix 15-A | Is the referenced publication current? | AFMAN 32-1123 (I) is obsolete and has been superseded by UFC 3-260-01, Airport & Heliport Planning & Design. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-195 | 15 | 15-A-3 | Appendix 15-A | Is the referenced publicatio current? | AFMAN 32-1128 (I) Future Airfield & Heliport Marking Criteria is not on any of the electronic publications search sites. This publication needs to be verified that it is still current. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-196 | 15 | 15-B-4 | 2.6.1 | Is this requiring us to now produce the Requirements Document, Project Planning Document and Requirements & Management Plan in house? Or can these still be produced by an A-E firm funded by AETC? | Should say "Oversee the development of the Requirements Document, Project Planning Document and Requirements & Management Plan" since AETC funds these documents to be done by A-E firms. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-197 | 15 | 15-B-4 | 2.6.1 | Will it be required to continue programming two MILCONs a year once all TOP MILCON projects have been programmed? If so, to what extent do Outyear MILCON need to be programmed - front page, DDD sheets, Detailed Cost Est, Req. Calculation Sheets, Impact on Physical Plant Size, Functional Relocation, Project Location/Site Maps and/or Certificate of Compliance? | Two MILCONS a year is overboard since the average number of MILCON projects funded in the last 6 years is less than one. If we continue with two a year then we will be programming projects for the outyears that will have to be reprogrammed once the projects reach the Top MILCON since in that amount of time the scope and/or cost will likely have changed. It would make more sense if after the Top MILCONS were all programmed to drop back to programming one MILCON a year. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-198 | 15 | 15-B-5 | 2.6.3 | Are facility boards to be held 2, 3 or 4 times a year? | It states that facility boards will be held quarterly, but in Section 15-3 paragraph 15.3.12 it states that facility boards will be held not less than 3 times a year. Clarify whether facility boards are held 3 or 4 times a year. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-199 | 15 | 15-B-6 | 2.8.2 | Is it required to edit Civil Engineering mission data sets only? Or is it required to edit all base organizations mission data sets? What mission data sets "listed below" require edits? | It states "…and edit mission data sets as listed below…". First, it should read "…and edit Civil Engineering mission data sets…". Second, it says "as listed below", and there is nothing listed below. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-200 | 15 | 15-D-1 | Appendix 15-D | Is it required to update the General Plan Report annually or biennially? Is the HVAC Quarterly Report to be submitted annually? | Change the biennial review of both the Vance and Kagelman AICUZ studies to April. These plans have been review in April since 2003. There should be two line items for General Plan since the General Plan Maps are required to be reviewed annually, but the General Plan is only required to be reviewed biennially (per AFI 32-7062). Change the Base Comprehensive Plan Tabs due date to annually. Change the Annual Airfield Waiver directive to UFC 3-260-01. AFM 32-1123 (I) is obsolete and has been superseded by UFC 3-260-01. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-201 | 15 | 15-2-1 | Item 2 | What are some examples of suspenses from base agencies? What is the performance threshold of suspenses that are received less than 6 days in advance (some suspenses are due in less than a day from when received)? | Respons to suspenses: Suspenses have to be submitted six days or more in advance in order to receive an outstanding. There should be some sort of wording as follows "special consideration will be given to suspenses that are required in less than a week's time." | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-202 | 15 | 15-1-2 | 15.1.1.1.5 | What is meant by maintaining base landscaping themes? Why would the Community Planner maintain unimproved areas? | This seems like it would belong to the grounds shop. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-203 | 15 | 15-1-1 | 15.1 | How many of these types of responses, reports, briefings, etc are required? | "The service provider shall provide updates, responses, reports, and briefings requiring various mediums such as graphic presentations of projects using reports, renderings, computer-generated graphics, slides and overhead projection." This subjective type of request reduces time for planning and programming documents that are quantifiable. This requirement has become a considerable undertaking over the last couple of years and has usually required overtime to accomplish due to short suspenses. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-204 | 15 | 15-1-3 | 15.1.2.2 | Should "requirement documents" be included? | Requirement documents have been funded by AETC recently because they understand the increased workload incurred by the programming section in the past few years due to new requests such as GeoBase data incorporated into documents, aerial photos, digital photos, more detailed floor plans, IRP maps to support waivers, AT/FP requirements; planning and programming all projects to the highest approval level for a single facility, etc. The word "requirement document" should be removed. | 8-Sep-06 | ||
| R-205 | 15 | 15-B-3 | 2.6.1 | With up to 2 MILCON documents required per year there will be several projects developed that will not be considered for funding for over 6 years or into the out-year MILCON program. Due to possible user and requirement changes it would be wise to limit the extent of documentation for projects that are not in the top 6. These projects should only require a DD form 1391, DD form 1391C, Certificate of Complance and equpiment/furnishing list. The Requirements Document (RD), project planning documen (PPD) and Requirements and Management Plan (RAMP) documents are being funded by AETC and should only be accomplished for the top 2-3 projects. Wording should be included to accomplish the RD, PPD and RAMP only if funding is not provided. | 8-Sep-06 | |||
| R-206 | 15 | 15-D-2 | Installation Readiness Assessment: Need to change wording from C-Rating for Facility Groups to Q-Rating for Facilities since C-Ratings are no longer valid. | 8-Sep-06 | ||||
| R-207 | Does the government really want to add this more restrictive policy to the SOW and incur the associated cost? | Paragraph states: "Service provider’s personal or privately owned vehicles are not authorized for use on the flight line." The Vance flightline driving instruction VAFBI 24-301 1 Aug 05 states: 3.3.1.1. "Privately owned vehicles required to perform contractual services on the flightline must receive written authorization and approval from the Administrative Contracting Officer at Vance AFB. The following contractor positions in support of Aircraft Maintenance and Base Operating Support may be authorized by the ACO, Deputy Program Manager, Aircraft Maintenance Director, Base Operations/Life Support Manager, Airfield Management Specialist, Operations Branch Manager, Component Repair Manager, T-1 Manager, T-38 Manager, T-37 Manager, Maintenance Operations Manager, Grounds Superintendent, and Lead Entomologist. These positions requesting POV flightline permits must apply in writing to AM who in turn will request approval from the ACO." Contractor POV flight line usage was specifically considered by the operations group commander when the 1 Aug 05 revision was in coordination. A risk assessment was conducted and the above policy/control measure was adopted. | 8-Sep-06 | |||||
