Solicitation FA527024QA077 Caterpillar Questions
1. Would you want these items shipped to Tracy CA or Kadena AFB Okinawa?
a. The Vehicle parts will be shipped to Tracy California:
W62N2A
CCP WHSE 30
W1BG DLA DISTRIBUTION
25600 SOUTH CHRISMAN ROAD
TRACY, CA 95304
United States
2. Would you like for me to provide a quote with everything, but this discontinued part?
238-7441 none currently available. CAT lists an estimated 30 business day lead time.
298-5277 discontinued.
Yes you can quote these, and just make a note on the quote that they were unable to be attained.
3. How quickly do you need these items?
30 days ARO
4. Quote Due Date: The notice on SAM states June 6, 2024, at 10:00 PM EDT, but the Combined Synopsis states June 14, 2024, at 11:00 AM JST. Could you please clarify the correct due date for the quote?
Due Date for the Quote will be 14 June 2024, at 11am JST
5. Scope of Request: Is this Combined Synopsis/Request for Quote solely for parts, or does it also include one Caterpillar Excavator Model: M318D and one Caterpillar Model: M3180? I am assuming it is just for the parts for these models but would like confirmation.
The parts are specified by the model. The spreadsheet determined which parts are needed for the two different caterpillar repairs.
6. Weight Specifications: When asking for the weight of each individual piece, do you mean the weight of each package or the weight of each part?
Weight of each package
7. Number of Pieces: Do you need the count of packages or the count of parts? Since you asked for dimensions, I assume you mean packages or boxes.
Number of total boxes being shipped.
8. Shipping Destination: Are these parts being shipped to Kadena AFB in Okinawa, Japan, and then by you to Tracy, CA, in the USA?
a. The Vehicle parts will be shipped to Tracy California:
W62N2A
CCP WHSE 30
W1BG DLA DISTRIBUTION
25600 SOUTH CHRISMAN ROAD
TRACY, CA 95304
United States
9. Delivery Expectations: Are there any specific delivery expectations considering that these parts need to be shipped overseas?
***PLEASE ENSURE THE VENDOR ATTACHES THE 1149 TCMD TO EACH INDIVIDUAL PIECE*** WE HAVE HAD MANY ISSUES OF PARTS BEING FRUSTRATED AT TRACY AND NEEDING TO BE RE-PURCHASED OR HUNTED DOWN, ONLY TO LEARN THEY HAVE BEEN DISPOSED OF. THIS HAS BEEN ATTRIBUTED TO THE VENDOR IMPROPERLY LABELING PARCELS.
10. I see that there is a change to this Solicitation on SAM in relation to the Offer Due Date; what was the reason for the extension of the Due Date?
Per the Combines Synopsis, quotes will be due the 14th of July. Questions were due the 7th Of June.
11. The freight cost , is this additional to the our quoted prices?
Included in the quote cost, a line for freight on the quote is fine.
