Household Goods Packing and Crating Services in Kanagawa

As of 15 Sep 09

No. 1 Area: Exhibits (Item A003)

Question: What is the difference in services between Item A003, AA thru AF and AG thru AJ?

Answer: As stated in the description for A003, the service must be the same as Item A001. For Zama, the loose articles specified in AG thru AJ are drayed to either DDYJ Yokosuka or Camp Zama warehouse when ordered by the ordering officer for containerization. For Yokosuka, the loose articles specified in AG thru AJ are packed either at owner’s residence or Government-furnished facility and drayed to Government-furnished facility.

No. 2 Area: Exhibits (Item A004)

Question: Regarding Sub Items AB and AD of Item A004, “Drayage Not Included”, does this mean that these items do not include drayage within area of performance?

Answer: That is correct. Please read the description of Item A004, which says in part “(Service may be performed at Government-furnished facility or contractor-furnished facility when ordered by the Ordering

Officer.)”

No. 3 Area: Exhibits (Item A004)

Question: Could you tell us the service required for Item A004, AE “Shipboard Pack outs”?

Answer: Please read the description of Item A004, AE. When ordered for performance at the member’s/employee’s residence located on an ocean vessel, such as USS George Washington, the contractor must pick up goods outside fence perimeter due to contractor’s personnel liability and safety, and for security reasons. The contractor will NOT be authorized to perform any service “on board a ship”.

No. 4 Area: Exhibits (Item A010)

Question: Containers specs for ASTM-D4169-01 do not specify any dimensions. Please verify. Also, we could not locate SDDC Pamphlet 55-12.

Answer: The requirement for ASTM-D4169-01 (A010AA) will be removed. For SDDC Pamphlet, please see attached.

No. 5 Area: Exhibits (Item A028)

Question: Any example for us to understand Item A028 “Partial Withdrawal” better?

Answer: For example, member/employee requests to take certain clothes or articles out of the containers at

Government-furnished or contractor-furnished facility for their use. In such events, this Item will be used to compensate the contractor’s effort.
