Question 50: The CBA provided with the RFP provides 3 Exhibits for direct labor rates (Two
Exhibit As and an Exhibit B). The second occurrence of Exhibit A looks to combine the first
Exhibit A and Exhibit B, however, the General Maintenance Worker is removed. Does this table

Contract.
Question 54: If the contractor is responsible for purchasing all repair parts for HVAC, Solar, fire suppression and security (IDS, AC and CCTC), can the Government provide the maintenance records for these systems for the last three years?
Answer 54: Maintenance data is not available prior to March 2014. See attached spreadsheet titled “Repair Workload Data” for the applicable records contained in separate tabs within the spreadsheet. In addition, IDS maintenance data is not available as it was covered under a GSA services contract for maintenance, repair and testing as a single cost.
Question 55: What is the annual consumption of the two 1,000-Gallon water pods at the MRES and the 73K water pod at the MSSC?
Answer 55: MSSC water usage is approximately 300,000 gallons; this can be greatly affected if a fixture is broken and sticks open for a long period of time. RME water usage is approximately
15,000 gallons annually; with same caveat as MSSC fixtures.
Question 56: Can the Government tell us how many personnel the incumbent has on staff?
Answer 56: No. The Government will not provide that information.
Question 57: The PWS states that the windows at the MHPCC are to be washed 1x per month.

Answer 57: All exterior doors, windows and lobby windows at 550 Lipoa and AEOS must be washed.
550 Window panes = 280
Approximate surface to be clean:
550 Lipoa = 8,933 SF
AEOS = 150 SF
Question 58: Is the BOSS contractor responsible for the hazardous disposal fees or are those fees paid by the Government? If the fees are to be paid by the contractor, would the Government provide more information on what types of hazardous wastes are to be disposed and how much of each type of waste?
Answer 58: Contractor is responsible for disposal fees. MSSC is an EPA Small Quantity
Generator (SQG) of Hazardous Waste and SQG Universal Waste. RME is an EPA
Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generator (CESQG) and SQG Universal Waste.
550 Lipoa is an EPA Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generator (CESQG) and SQG
Universal Waste.
PV Farm is an EPA Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generator (CESQG) and SQG
Universal Waste.
Presently Waste Streams include:
Machine Shop machine tool cutting fluid/lubricant. Rags contaminated with oil. Rags contaminated with Diesel. Spent Fluorescent Lamps. PCB ballasts. Non PCB ballasts. Lead
Acid Batteries. NiCad Batteries. Lithium Ion Batteries. Broken Fluorescent lamps. Rags, wipes contaminated with Methanol & Acetone. Rags contaminated with F-listed Solvents. Lead solder waste. Rags contaminated with Glycol. Paint related material. Lead based Paint chips. Mirror
Stripping waste. Waste acids. CAVEAT: as an R&D mission it is inherent that waste steams change.
The quantity of Hazardous waste generated at MSSC is often well below the SQG threshold;
however, periodically it is close to the threshold. The quantities are variable and unpredictable to provide any meaningful baseline.
Question 59: Would the Government identify the next date it is anticipated that the 3.6 meter mirror will require recoating and therefore the use of the heavy lift?
Answer 59: The Heavy lift elevator platform must be maintained regularly and this can be done without taking off the passenger cart. The next recoat of the 3.6m primary which requires removal of the passenger cart is a soft target; however, it is expected to be required around FY17
Q4 for equipment movement. The actual 3.6m M1 recoat is scheduled for FY18 Q4.
Question 60: Would the Government identify the contents of the pressure vessels requiring inspection under the BOSS contract?
Answer 60: The contents of all pressure vessels requiring inspection is atmosphere air.
Question 61: The Government identified Maui County Water as the water supplier for the potable water tanks. Does the Government maintain a separate contract with Maui County Water for purchase of the water or is it the BOSS contractor’s responsibility to establish a contract and pay for potable water delivery to the MSSC and RME facilities?
Answer 61: The Government does not have a contract for Maui County Water purchase. It’s the
BOS contractor’s responsibility to pay for and establish potable water delivery to MSSC and
RME facilities. The Government stipulates a Maui County Potable Water source is required to ensure the potable water meets safe drinking water requirements and the point of water source is available for inspection.
Question 62: Would the Government please identify the sizes and quantities of air filters required on an annual basis for all the HVAC systems on the RWP program?
Answer 62: Please see the attached spreadsheet titled – “AMOS HVAC Filters” for filter sizes and quantities with the CAVEAT the list is approximately 90% accurate. In addition, the interior environmental conditions in the AEOS facility is very clean and on a case-by-case basis some filters may be used longer than usual and are replaced on a judgement call by HVAC technicians
(with AF concurrence), however HVAC filters shall not be in service longer than 1 year regardless of conditions. In the MSSS facility there are several mothballed HVAC units that only require an annual startup and operational check. These mothballed HVAC units do not require filter changes unless the filter is not usable. If the mothballed HVAC units are put back into an operational status routine filter changes will be required. Most other AMOS filter changes are completed on a quarterly basis.
Question 63: In the Instructions to Offerors, Addenda to FAR 52.212-1, B.3 Volume III, Past
Performance, it is requested that Client Authorization Letters be submitted. If providing subcontractor past performance data along with prime contractor data, are Consent Letters required for release of present and past performance information to the prime offeror?
Answer 63: Yes, subcontractor consent is required per the updated Addenda FAR 52.212-
1(3)(d).
Question 64: Paragraphs 1.13.2 and 4.3 requires the vendor to provide warehouse and storage space. Is it the Government’s intention that the successful offeror will be required to take over the current lease of this facility, or find other suitable warehouse space on the island?
Answer 64: The contractor will take over the current lease of this facility.
Question 65: Paragraph 10.7.4 requires the contractor to convert the elevator at the MSSC building to enable the movement of the telescope primary mirror for recoating, involving the removal of the inclinator penthouse, floor panels, and passenger unit, and then the reassembly of the elevator system once the telescope mirror has been returned. To accomplish such a conversion would require a licensed commercial elevator vendor to perform these operations. Is the offeror required to price the costs of the conversion operations in the Firm Fixed Price (FFP), or are these services considered Over and Above work which will enable the contractor to obtain reimbursement for these costs?
Answer 65: This item will be completed using the Over and Above work order process.
Question 66: Paragraph 4.15.5 requires the contractor to ship all Test, Measurement and
Diagnostic Equipment (TMDE) to Joint Base Pearl Harbor- Hickam (JBPHH) for calibration services. Is the vendor required to cover these shipping costs? Are costs for shipping items to
DRMO paid by the Government? If these shipments are the vendor’s responsibility, would the
Government please advise the number of shipments performed each year, and the historical costs? Are there any other shipment costs to JBPHH that the contractor must price in our FFP?
Answer 66: The contractor will bear all shipping costs for the shipping categories described in
Appendix 28.
Question 67: Paragraph 8.0 requires the contractor to monitor, order, and coordinate fuel deliveries. Is the cost of the fuel part of the FFP? If so, will the contractor be allowed to use
DLA-E as a source or must we use commercial source only?
Answer 67: The Cost of fuel is part of the FFP.
Question 68: Paragraph 8.2 – Fuel Ordering: Would the Government please provide the average gallons of diesel fuel deliveries the contractor must process every month?
Answer 68: MSSC has fuel capacity of 8660 gallons. Fuel consumption of MSSC Generator at full load is approximately 30 gallons per hour. Planned maintenance requires approximately 12 hours of operation per year. On-hand fuel must not drop below 60% of total capacity. The remaining run time per year is due to power outages from utility disruption and inherently unpredictable.
RME has fuel capacity of 1913 gallons. Fuel consumption of RME Generator at full load is approximately 20 gallons per hour. Planned maintenance requires approximately 12 hours of operation per year. On-hand fuel must not drop below 50% of total capacity. The remaining run time per year is due to power outages from utility disruption and inherently unpredictable.
Question 69: Paragraph 7.15.2 – Waste Water: Would the Government please provide the average number of waste system pumping performed each year for the septic tanks at the MSSC and RME?
Answer 69: MSSC has three septic systems; each are pumped once annually. RME septic system consists of a 2000 gallon holding tank. RME potable water capacity is also 2000 gallons, so when potable water is delivered the RME septic tank is pumped. the sep and is pumped when water is delivered.
Question 70: Appendix 6 provides the type of HVAC systems located throughout the AMOS complex. Would the Government please provide the quantity, types, and sizes of all HVAC filters required for quarterly replacement? Without this list, it is impossible for the offeror to effectively price the costs of these filters, which can be a substantial annual cost, particularly if there is a requirement for high-cost MERV 14+ HEPA filters, or carbon/potassium pre filters.
Answer 70: See spreadsheet titled “AMOS HVAC Filters”; also reference question 62.
Question 71: Paragraph 4.13 discusses the installation’s vehicle control program and the vendor’s responsibility to ensure the care and serviceability of the GSA fleet and other
Government Motor Vehicles (GMV). Would the Government provide the number of GSA and
GMV vehicles the vendor will use in performing the mission? Is the vendor permitted to use any of these vehicles to transport employees to and from MSSC?
Answer 71: The vehicle control program takes into account 25 GMVs with 22 GMVs leased through GSA (21 GMVs assigned for non-BOS use). The BOS contractor will have 4 vehicles
(includes 2 forklifts) with the GSA-leased vehicle listed in Appendix 12, page A12-2, provided as the replacement for the vehicle listed in Appendix 5, paragraph A5.2.2.
Question 72: Paragraph A5.2.1 lists four forklifts and one pick-up truck for contractor use in performing BOS services. Paragraph 1.14 advises the offeror that they are pursuing the lease/acquisition of two additional forklifts and a stake bed truck. Is there any information the
Government can provide to enable the offeror to estimate the number of additional work vehicles and equipment the offeror must price to support the MSSC/RME operations?
Answer 72: Clarification: Paragraph A5.2.1 identifies two forklifts (not four) currently provided to the incumbent as GFE. The intent of paragraph 1.14 is to make it known to all offerors that the Government intends to transition from the requirements described in Appendix 5, paragraph
A5.2 by reporting these same forklifts under the “Registered Equipment Management System” in order to obtain vehicle replacement preference. The same holds true for the stake bed except that the Government does not currently furnish the stake bed. The contractor will need to plan accordingly to meet the 5,000 pound delivery payload capacity described in paragraph 4.2.1.
Question 73: Paragraph A27.1 provides a rundown of historical DSW work and work orders.
Would the Government please advise if there is a maximum cost of DSW that can be applied to the FFP? Is the price of materials for DSW a FFP item or are parts purchased through the
Government?
Answer 73: Refer to PWS Table 7.1 – CE Work Categories, Labor Hours column and Material
Value column which contain the caps of DSWs that are included in the FFP. All Parts and materials are purchased by BOS.
Question 74: Paragraph 7.7.1 requires the contractor to maintain all lighting systems throughout the AMOS complex. Would the Government provide the type and size of bulbs used within the
Maui Space Center?
Answer 74: AMOS uses many different types and sizes of bulbs throughout our facilities. We do not have bulb information readily available; however, the majority of lighting uses 4’ T-8 fluorescent tube style bulbs.
Question 75: PWS 3.2: DD254 is in conflict with PWS 3.2. Block 1a, Facility Clearance
Required states, “None”, which means a Facility Clearance is not required, which would invalidate the need for Personnel Security Clearances. Block 1b, Level of Safeguarding Required requires “Secret”, is this correct? Will the contractor be required to have classified storage at their offices located on commercial property?
Answer 75: DD254 shall be modified to 1a = SECRET and 1b = None.
Question 76: Reference to the CONEX, because CONEX are not considered real property are the two (2) CONEX designated for storage at the RME site to be maintained as part of the contract?
Answer 76: There 3 CONEX at RME and 4 at the PV Farm; CONEX maintenance is not part of the contract.

Answer 77: Non-BOS GMV-fleet will be parked in Kihei facility parking areas at Bldgs. 550, 590B and RME.
Question 78: How many GSA vehicles are part of the contractor responsibilities?
Answer 78: Under the vehicle control program requirements in paragraph 4.13, the contractor will be responsible for 22 GMVs leased through GSA (21 GMVs assigned for non-BOS use).

Question 83: Is the contractor required to insure the Government vehicles?
Answer 83: Yes. Insurance is required for the vehicles assigned to BOS as well as the Det 15
GSA vehicle fleet in performance of vehicle control duties outlined in PWS paragraph 4.13.
Question 84: Do the Government vehicles require special licensing?
Answer 84: The contractor is responsible for training and certifying operator qualifications for the stake bed and forklifts. Additionally, to transport hazardous materials, the operator is required to have a CDL with hazardous materials endorsement.
Question 85: Do these Government vehicles include the two (2) Government forklifts?
Answer 85: Yes. As listed in Appendix 5, paragraph A5.2.1.
Question 86: Will funding for scheduled and unscheduled maintenance differ for GSA vehicles and non-GSA vehicles?
Answer 86: Yes. The scheduled and unscheduled maintenance cost is included in the lease agreement the Government has with GSA whereas the contractor will bear the cost for scheduled/unscheduled maintenance involving the GFV listed in appendix 5, paragraphs A5.2.1 and A5.2.2.

Government vehicles; as well as the recovery/towing of Government vehicles?
Answer 90: The contractor will be responsible for scheduling the installation and removal of
PLMRs with approved local vendor contracted by the Government. The recovery and towing of
GSA-leased vehicles may require VCO involvement to assist stranded vehicle operators;
however costs will be covered under the lease agreement the Government has with GSA. The contractor will bear the costs associated with towing and repair of GFVs listed in Appendix 5, paragraph A5.2.
Question 91: Will the contractor be allowed to use GSA vehicles in the execution of work on
Maui HMC?
Answer 91: No. Except for the GSA vehicle listed in Appendix 12, page A12-2.
Question 92: Will the contractor be responsible for establishing fuel accounts for all
Government vehicles, to include the GSA vehicles?
