Q1. Will the Government accept delivery of the change pages and signed solicitation amendments via e-mail?

A1. E-mail is not sufficient. Contractor must deliver change pages along with a CD-R to AFOTEC by 31 March 2017 at 2:00 P.M. MT. Change pages may be printed on a different color paper if desired, must be clearly marked with Volume and Page Numbers.

Q2. Can the Government specify what additional proposal material is expected to respond to the new ATS Post Award Activities task? Is that proposal material subject to any page limitations?

Should that material be included as a new TO subset in the Technical volume?

A2. Subset Technical Volume is not required. With Technical Volume change pages, please indicate that you accept or do not accept ATS Post Award Activities in a short sentence or paragraph. If exception is taken, it must be listed per Section M paragraph 7.2. All requirements for ATS Post Award Activities will be IAW Attachment 10, and will be fulfilled at the conference.

Q3. In the Amendment SF 30 Block 14 states in part “…Offerors must acknowledge receipt of this amendment to the RFP by signing page one (1) of all RFP amendments and submitting the amendment along with the proposal (or change pages) no later than COB 31 March 2017.” The FedBizOps posting states that “Change Pages to be submitted by 31 March 2017 at 2:00 PM.” Can the Government please clarify the time change pages are due.

A3. Change Pages must be submitted by 31 March 2017 at 2:00 PM MT.

Q4. Section L – paragraph 7.1.3 Section C - Deliveries, Performance, and Estimates, page 25 of 35, states the Task Order Estimate for NukDEW is $3,565,617.00; Task Order Estimate for C2ISR is $7,806,253.00; and Task Order Estimate for CAP is $12,282,681.00.

Question; Does the Task Order estimates, as referenced above, include the provided “Baselined Other Direct Costs (ODCs)/Travel” as stated in paragraph 6.4.7, (i.e., is the NukDEW Task order estimate exclusive of ODCs $3,565,617.00 or is the NukDEW total task order value inclusive of ODCs, $3,815,617 (includes $50,000.00/year))?

A4. Section L – paragraph 7.1.3 Section C - Deliveries, Performance, and Estimates, page 25, Task Order Estimates are for Labor Only NOT including baselined ODCs/Travel.

Q5. The ATS Basic PWS (dated 12 November 2016) Paragraph 9.0, page 24 subparagraph d., 5th bullet states the following: “ ● Cost/Price proposals … Baselined ODC’s (such as travel, if applicable) represent the ODC ceiling, inclusive of indirect rate/costs (i.e. G&A, NMGRT, etc.).” Is it the Government’s intent that all ODC ceiling values shown in the RFP, include all the NMGRT and thus the NMGRT should not be separately priced for the TOs as applicable?

A5. All Baselined ODCs are inclusive of indirect rates including NMGRT.
