QUESTION & ANSWERS #1

RFQ FA568220Q7003 SPORTS OFFICIALS

AVIANO AB, ITALY

Q1. While reviewing the PWS and the Pricing Schedule, they do not match each other. In the pricing, Playoffs are always higher paid then regularly scheduled games and the number of officials is different than the regular games.

A1. If you look at the Attachment 2 – Average number of officials and games, each sport has the mandated number of referees and scorekeepers. We are looking for the Firm-Fixed Price for each sport type inclusive of officials and score/timekeepers. (i.e. Intramural Basketball price per game shall be inclusive of 2 referees and 1 score/timekeeper; Varsity Basketball price per game shall be inclusive of 3 referees and 1 score/timekeeper).

Q2. We would add line items for the Play-Offs as they are a different pricing.

A2. Looking at the Attachment 2 – Average number of officials and games the estimated number of Play- Off games is low in comparison to Intramural season. The number of Play-Off games should be bared by the average of the Intramural sports Line Items (CLINs). (i.e. Intramural Basketball price per game should bare the price of Play-Off games, Intramural Bsketball season estimates 106 games with only 5 Play-Off games. 5 Play-Off games price should be spread in 106 regular season games.) Varsity Sports will have no Play-Offs.

Q3. We would add line items for the Score/Timer as they are a different pricing.

A3. The number of score/timekeepers is known in advance for each type of sport and therefore has to be included in price for sport where needed. (i.e. Intramural Basketball price per game shall be inclusive of 2 referees and 1 score/timekeeper; Varsity Basketball price per game shall be inclusive of 3 referees and 1 score/timekeeper).

Q4. The price for Play-off games should be higher than the regular game type.

A4. The price for the Play-Offs is higher as it has major number of officials and score/time keepers than the regular game, but Intramural Play-Offs can’t be priced as Varsity sports as the rules are simpler.

Price for the Play-Off games for each sport should be included and spread throughout the average number of annual games. See Attachment 2 – Average number of officials and games.

Q5. Are the quotes submitted during presolicitation phase still valid?

A5. Presolicitation was posted on 6 Feb 2020 and the posting had only Draft PWS, it had no instructions to quoters nor evaluation factors posted.
