About this file
This document contains a tracker of questions and answers related to a solicitation by the U.S. Air Force Band for custom ceremonial overcoats. The USAF Band located at Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling is seeking a vendor to manufacture and deliver ceremonial overcoats according to the requirements in the attached Performance Work Statement. Bidders must provide a sample coat after award for inspection before the initial order. Questions from potential vendors covered sourcing materials like fabric and buttons, budgets, clarification on fabric specifications, and the possibility of fabric samples from the USAF Band, which is unable to provide due to low existing stock but may discuss further with the awarded vendor.

| COMMENTS / FFQs | GOVERNMENT RESPONSE |
| I want to ensure that I source the correct fabric and trim for this project. I see "Air Force Blue (PDF-0060)" and "45 ligne chrome Air Force buttons." Will I source all materials or will they be provided? Are there specific vendors the agency uses for the materials? | Awarded vendor will be reponsible for sourcing all materials. The buttons can be ordered from Vanguard. |
| Once awarded, will funds be provided for patterns and sampling? | At this time, funds will only be available at final delivery of the CLIN. The total price shall include the sample before delivery. |
| Is there a budget for this project? | Vendors are encouraged to submit their competitive proposals encapsulating their capabilities and budgets. Proposals will be evaluated against, and in the order of, the Evaluation Factors For Award, found on page 6 of the Combo Synopsis Solicitation document. |
| Can you please clarify the outer bodice fabric that you require? In the attached illustration, the outer bodice appears to be a Polyester taffeta waterproof with a fleece or French Terry lining. However, you describe in the SOW that you desire the inner lining to be Polyester Taffeta. Polyester Taffeta is waterproof -- (the same material used to create umbrellas.) I was wondering if they were inadvertently switched on the SOW. | The outer body of our current coat is made from Gore-Tex. We do not require Gore-Tex for this contract, but the fabric the vendor selects must have the indicated waterproof specifications. |
| Is there any chance you guys would be able to supply fabric for the samples? | Unfortunately, the USAF Band is unable to provide fabric samples at this time due to the extremely low existing stock. After award, additional conversations concerning samples can take place between the Band and the awarded vendor. |
