USAFA – Graduation Stage Backdrop

Combined Synopsis/Solicitation Q&A

FA700025Q0033

Questions and Answers

1. Do you have dimensions for the signage being requested?

In accordance with Attachment 2 – Salient Characteristics Graduation Stage Backdrop Image 3, section 3 is 32’ wide and 16’ tall. The left side (Sections 1 and 2 combined) is 18’ wide and 16’ tall.

The right side (Sections 4 and 5 combined) is 18’ wide and 16’ tall.

2. Is this prevailing wage?

A wage determination does not apply as this is not a service.

3. Please provide size of each panel?

Please refer to question and answer 1. We do not have specific dimensions for each existing aluminum panel that make up the backdrop.

4. Please provide attachment method for attaching banners to aluminum frame?

It is up to the vendor to determine the attachment method as part of the requirement.

5. Please confirm that installation will be provided by others. We are quoting to print and ship banners?

The vendor is quoting on more than printing and shipping banners. The vendor is expected to repair dents on existing aluminum panels, remove the existing fascia, and mount the new backdrop panels/banners to the existing panels, among other items. See Attachment 2 – Salient Characteristics Graduation Stage Backdrop.

The Civil Engineer Squadron sets up the backdrop framing every year, but the new fascia must be attached to the existing aluminum panels.

6. Should the material be mesh/wind screen type? Or standard vinyl banner?

The material used is at the vendor’s discretion as long as it conforms to the salient characteristics.
