EAGLE HARDWARE

The following are follow-up questions that arose from the answers provided to the previous offerors’ questions:

26. Question: How many special orders (orders for products not inventory) are transacted on a monthly or annual basis? -- Clarified to “How many transactions in FY13 were for non-market basket items”?

Government Answer: Average of 14 transactions per month for non-market basket items.

27. Question: Referencing the response to question 22 of the contractor’s questions, “The current RMS and COIMS Software is not owned by the Government; the software is provided by the current contractor.” Will the contract be awarded at least 45 days prior to the start of work to allow for the purchase of the required computer software and input of data?

Government Answer: The Government plans to award this requirement on or about 15 August 2014.

28. Question: When you made changes to the Clin sheets pg. 3~17, you did not put the updated sheets on FBO. We do understand that you are removing the words, (Service Non-personal) from each sheet.

Are you going to put the updated sheets on FBO like you did with the PWS update and other documents? Since the CLIN pages are fill-in required, is the Government going to be sending the updated CLIN pages (3~17 from the solicitation) with the changes from Amendment 0001, back out for the offeror’s to fill in and send in with the proposal?

Government Answer: If you look at pages 2-8 of the SF30 on Amendment 0001, you will see the updated verbiage for each CLIN. Each paragraph begins, "The CLIN extended description has changed from" and then in between each paragraph says "to", and then the updated verbiage. Also, “Service Non-personal” was not part of the removed words; “Government” was the removed word from the first line of CLINs.

The Government will not release an updated SF1449 with the changes to the extended description.

Offerors should fill in the appropriate sections on the original SF1449; as well as, sign and return the SF30 acknowledging the changes to the extended description, with their proposal.
