27 Jun 2024 Catholic Musician RFQ/Solicitation Questions & Answers:
| 1. | Question: Regarding the aforementioned opportunity, could you kindly provide further details on the insurance requirements for the musician? Specifically, I am interested in understanding the type of insurance and the extent of coverage that is necessary. | |
| Answer: Basic Liability coverage for minimum amount(s). | ||
| 2. | Question: Is there an incumbent in place at this time? If so, are you able to provide the incumbent's name (awardee), the award number and the award amount? | |
| Answer: Awardee: Midge Properties; Contract #: FA483019CA015, | Awarded Price: $55,500.00. | |
| 3. | Question: Is there an opportunity for the musician to begin the assignment prior to September 1, 2024? | |
| Answer: The contract awardee will be provided Chaple contact information immediately after award notification, if necessary, awardee will be provided a base pass to enter Moody AFB Main Gate and will be welcomed to meet and greet Catholic Priest and Chapel staff.

Contract will be awarded a few weeks prior to 1 Sept 2024, however, official contract start date is Sunday, 1 Sept 2024. | ||
| 4. | Question: Are funds currently available and ready to be awarded at the time the assignment is scheduled to commence? | |
| Answer: YES | ||
| 5. | Question: Per the RFQ doc and the SOW, it appears as though the musician is needed for a weekly service (2 hours per week for Sunday mass I assume) with the possibility of additional services rendered when necessary. If we decide to submit a quote, can we quote based on the price per service? I'm inquiring about this method of response given this would be a firm fixed price contract. | |
| Answer: All quotes should fully utilize Attachment 2 - Pricing Schedule by providing Unit or Monthly price and total price for each CLIN. The Pricing Schedule format supports a firm-fixed price contract. Another method of providing Pricing Information is for Offeror to fill in page 3 – 4 of the Solicitation/RFQ/SF 1449. Each week, the Catholic Musician is responsible for a 1-hour rehearsal and to perform during 1-hour Sunday Mass. |
In addition to All Sundays, see SOW, Para 1.6.2.1.1. Other days include - Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Ash Wednesday, Holy Triduum, The Assumption, All Saints, & Immaculate Conception, etc... each requires one extra hour of rehearsal and one extra hour of service.
| 6. | Question: Section 1.6.1 in SOW: "shall attend weekly rehearsals for the choir” . Are we to understand the facility already has a choir of singers? If so, exactly what Musicians are you looking for? Piano? Vocalist? Music Director? Specific Instruments? Full Band? | |||
| Answer: This Solicitation/RFQ is requesting a quote for One (1) Pianist. | ||||
| 7. | Question: Section 2.1 in SOW: “shall ensure all audio/visual equipment are setup and tested”. Does the facility currently have sound engineers and/or an audio/visual technical team to run a soundboard & lighting board during performances? If not, is this something we will need to provide? | |||
| Answer: There is no need to provide soundboard & lighting board. We currently use a sound system which suffices our services. The Catholic Musician/Pianist will be responsible to use switch to turn on the organ only. | ||||
| 8. | Question: On the solicitation where is tell you to complete blocks 12,17,23,24,and 30. I just want to confirm, is block 23,24 required. | |||
| Answer: | Block 12 is Optional. | |||
| Block 17a, please fill in. | ||||
| Block 23, Do Not Fill. | ||||
| Block 24, Please fill in Total Amount only (All 5 years), however, | ---if using Attachment 2 – Pricing Schedule, this is optional. | |||
| Block 30a, Please sign. | ||||
| Block 30b, Please fill in. | ||||
| Block 30c, Please fill in. | ||||
| 9. | Question: Also, if I completed the pricing schedule excel form, do I also submit the Supplies or Services & Prices or Costs information. | |||
| Answer: No, you are not required to fill in Page 3 & 4 of Solicitation RFQ (SF 1449) if you have already filled in Attachment 2 - Pricing Schedule. Filling in one or the other is sufficient, both are not required to fill in. |
