Question Number Question Answer 26 What are the hours of operations for the Self Help Store? PWS 1.2.2.12.11 Self-help operations has been reinserted into PWS under section 1.5.20. Hours of operation will coincide with normal duty hours.

30 Where is the Wastewater treatment plant located at? PWS 1.2.3.5 TAFB does not have a WWTP to process WW. However, we have an industrial waste water treatment plant (IWTP). The IWTP Operations facility is 62551.

31 Does the BAS person need to be M – F 7 to 4 or 24/7 requirement? PWS 1.2.5 The contractor shall provide individuals to fill this position 24/7; however, breaks and meals as required by applicable labor laws and the collective bargaining agreement are acceptable times for a lapse in coverage.

33 Please confirm that the service call desk, Central Steam Plant and Wastewater Plant all must be manned 24/7. PWS 1.7.5.3 The Contractor is required to manage the service call system, central steam plant and wastewater plant all 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

35 a) Is it the Government’s intent for the contractor to full this position 24/7? b) Will this require two workers per shift to ensure full time coverage for breaks, meals, etc.?

c) Will the Government require an Information Technology Representative for this position? PWS 1.2.5

See answer #31

36 Can the Government sort the workload data so it aligns with the COLS levels for each area? This would eliminate any confusion and ensure the correct equipment is included in each of the COLS levels. (Section 4)

No, offerors are able to utilize the spreadsheet to sort and organize the data as appropriate.

38 a) Please define “shop level”. b) Will this work involve Planner/Estimators that are capable of defining scope of work involved and estimating labor time and materials required for completion or journeyman level service technicians? PWS 1.3.1 a). Shop level is knowledge which is expected to be standard practice known by the technicians and supervisors servicing respective equipment.

b). Both will be required.

45 a) This has increased from 8 to 16 man hours. b) How will the work load factor be provided since there is no historical data? PWS 1.2.1.2.1 Revised historical workload data.

46 a) This has increased from 8 to 16 man hours. b) How will the work load factor be provided since there is no historical data? PWS 1.2.1.2.2 Revised historical workload data.

49 a) Does this mean that the hours needed to plan and estimate will not be charged to work orders (capitalized) and that reimbursable customers will not pay CE for this service? b) How will this large planning and estimating requirement be funded? PWS 1.2.3.2.1.3 Large planning and estimating requirements would be handled through WOAPs or AF332 process.

50 This will require estimating and planning Direct Scheduled work. a) Does this mean that any DSW over 80 mh will be accomplished as a work order allocation? b) Does this apply to emergency DSW’s like water main breaks and power outages? PWS 1.1.2.1 a). No, DSW definition still applies.

b). Approval shall be mandated for reimbursable customers.

59 Would the government consider submission of the PDM program plan 30 days after the start of full operations rather than prior to NTP? PWS modified to state: submit a draft to Government prior to full contract performance, and final version NLT 30 calendar days after full contract performance

62 Is it the Government’s intent to comply with the WARN Act if a downward adjustment is required do to funding issues? FAR 52.217-9 calls for a 60 day preliminary notice to exercise an option. Currently the Union Agreement calls for a two week notice of an impending layoff or two weeks’ pay in lieu of notification.

The contractor shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations.

Is the equipment listed in the appendices the only equipment the contractor will have to perform Preventative Maintenance on? In other words, is the PM program “static” in that what is contained in the appendices is what the contractor is responsible for and if there are additions or deletions, then a formal modification to the contractor will have to be executed?

The equipment is not static. All facilities (existing and new) and real property installed equipment on Tinker AFB is considered part of this requirement/contract. The level of effort expended to maintain that equipment will be determined by the COLS level funded. Tinker AFB understands that there will be equipment that falls below this funding line and therefore the equipment will prioritized. Per PWS paragraph contractual adjustments are required when changed equivalent to one-man year (2,080 hours) are identified.

PWS 1.7.2.2.5 1. Is it the Government’s intent that the Contractor maintain an on-staff Corrosion Control Program Manager rather than receive this type of technical assistance from Maintenance Engineering or Engineering?

70 PWS 1.7.5.2 Due to the nature of contingencies and emergencies and the potential for indeterminate costs incurred by the Contractor, is there a means for the contractor to recover the cost associated with this type of response outside of the FFP?

N/A---contract type has changed.

75 PWS 1.1.2.3.2.2 1. As some WOs initiated through the WRRB will require engineering evaluation or assessment, is it the Contractor’s responsibility to maintain engineering personnel on staff for these duties or will the Contractor interface with an external Engineering Services contractor?

2. Will work be classified during the WRRB as “construction” in that the contractor will have to “pay” the Davis Bacon Wage rates as the cost for labor and materials may exceed the construction threshold and DB rates may apply?

1. The contractor will interface with an external Engineering Services contractor.

2. Yes, the contractor shall comply with the Wage Rate Requirements (Construction), formerly known as the Davis Bacon Act.

82 PWS 1.1.3.7 Does this requirement related to in-house efforts, construction projects, or both? If construction projects, what is the process to ensure new equipment is clearly identified and incorporated into the contract?

2. If new equipment is added that is part of a construction project or by others, will this equipment be added to the maintenance contract for additional cost?

3. Will the government provide historical workload factors as to what level of effort is required/expected?

1. Both, 1354 Installed Property Checklist and O&M manuals received during inspection and training.

2. If maintenance of new equipment exceeds contract parameters, a mod will be considered.

3. MAS sheet requirements may vary slightly from manufacturers warranty maintenance requirements, contractor will be responsible to evaluate and recommend MAS changes based on these requirements.

90 PWS 1.3.2.4 Will it be the responsibility of the Contractor to perform these assessments, or the responsibility of another party?

1. Typically, yes.

2. See answer #75.

3. No, historical data is not available.

4. See PWS.

105 How does the Government define “certified personnel”?

For instance, is this to be interpreted as Registered Architects and Professional Engineers certified to practice in the fields related to architectural and structural elements, such as Structural and Civil Engineers as they relate to infrastructure, foundations, and the other components of buildings and structures?

"Certified personnel" are those that are trained, experienced and certified to perform work and make recommendations in related field. For example, HVAC technician performing work on HVAC equipment must hold the appropriate OK state license. Definition is added to the PWS appendix.

107 Under these terms, does the Government require that the Contractor maintain a Fire Protection Engineer on staff? No.

111 1. It was stated that OG&E would be responsible for the main power distribution to TAFB at the Industry Day. Will the Government provide detail as to this requirement as it applies to the Contractor?

2. Is there a current system that can monitor the power?

3. Is this primary power or does this mean secondary power?

4. Will the Government define “balancing” of the load as OG&E is responsible for the primary power distribution for TAFB?

1. Contractor is responsible only between the OG&E points of demarcation and the point where interior electric maintenance begins.

2. All switchgear have voltmeters, ammeters and kwh meters for monitoring.

3. Contractor will be responsible for all power from the OG&E points of demarcation and the point where interior electric maintenance begins.

4. Balancing the load is a technique for opening or closing sectionalizing switches on a looped circuit to evenly distribute the current load in the loop. The Government does not have to define anything since this is an OG&E responsibility.

112 1. Will existing backflow records be turned over to the contractor?

2. How often are the survey’s to be performed?

Section L, Paragraph 2.11.9, page 5 Page Line Spacing and Page Limits Will the Government please consider increasing the page limit for Volume I – Technical Volume to 60 pages to allow Offerors to adequately address all proposal requirements with page line spacing that is 1.5 lines? If not, will the Government please consider allowing Offerors to use single spacing in Volume I Technical and Volume III Past Performance to comply with page limits?

No, the Government believes 50 pages at 1.5 lines is adequate for the information requested.

Section L, Paragraph 4.3.1 , page 9; Section L, ITO Attachment 1.1 Past & Present Performance Information Sheet (PPIS) Number of PPIS Offerors are Allowed to Submit In Paragraph 4.3.1, Offerors are instructed to submit “a maximum of 3 recent contracts you consider most relevant in demonstrating your ability to perform the proposed effort. ITO Attachment 1.1 PPIS states “The Government requests each offeror submit between 3 and 10 PPIS forms for the prime Contractor and between 4 and 7 for each significant subcontractor/teaming partner.” Will the Government please clarify if prime Offerors are permitted to submit more than 3 PPIS for recent, relevant contracts in Volume II – Past Performance?

ITO Attachment 1.1 was revised to delete the references to the number of PPIS allowed to be submitted. Section L, paragraph 4.3.1 remains the same and therefore PPIS are limited to a maximum of 3 recent contracts offerors consider the most relevant in demonstrating their ability to perform this requirement.

Section L, Paragraph 4.3.2, page 10 Specific Content Requirements Are the contracts submitted in the Specific Content section of Volume II – Past Performance required to be the same contracts that the offeror submits Past Performance Information Sheets (PPIS) on or can Offerors discuss problems encountered and resolutions on additional contracts in this section?

Offerors shall limit the information provided under specific content to those submitted with PPIS.

Section L, Paragraph 2.11.3, page 4 Page Limits in Table 2.11.3 Due to the requirement for 1.5 spacing throughout the proposal, will the Government please consider increasing the page limit for the Roadmap/Organizational Structure Change History required in Volume II – Past Performance to 4 pages to allow Offerors adequately address the requirements? If not, will the Government please consider allowing Offerors to use single spacing?

Changed to 4 pages.

Section L, Paragraph 2.11.3, page 3; Section M, Paragraph 2.1.1, page 3 Conflicting terms The table in Section L uses the term “Volume” when referring to the Technical, Past Performance, and other sections in the solicitation. However, Section M uses the term “Factor.” Would the Government please clarify which term should be used by the Offeror in the proposal?

With the exception of Contract Documentation, the factors and volumes are identical, Factor 1-Technical is Volume 1. Offerors may choose to label their proposals as "Volume 1- Technical" or "Factor 1- Technical"

Section L, paragraph 4.2, page 9 Early Proposal Information The RFP states “each offeror is requested to submit Volume III = Past Performance 15 calendar days prior to the solicitation closing date.” Does the Government mean Volume II here instead of Volume III?

Yes, it should be volume 2.

170 Section L, Paragraph 2.11.7, 3.2.1 and 2.11.3, pages 3-4, 5 and 7 Inclusion of List of Tables and Drawings in Volume I and Applicable Page Limits Section L, paragraph 2.11.7 directs Offerors to include “an indexed table of tables and figures;” however, this list does not appear in the Proposal Organization table in paragraph 2.11.3. Is this list of tables and drawings/figures counted in the Volume I page limit? Should a list be included in each volume?

The proposal organization table is updated and the "Table of Contents" references paragraph 2.11.7, which discusses the table of contents and indexing. There is no page limit to this section.

Questions & Answers #4 8 Jul 15

*Note: The Government is working on all other questions submitted and not included in this document. If clarification regarding an answer is necessary, please reference the question number. Questions/answers are purposely omitted; therefore, question numbers may be missing in each document posted, as those are questions with answers pending.

171 Section L, Paragraph 2.11.3, pages 3-4 Team List Page Limit In Section L, paragraph 2.11.3, the instructions for Volume I do not limit the Team List page count, while the Team List featured under Volume IV is limited to 5 pages.

Is this intentional, or does one set of instructions prevail?

All team lists have been changed to unlimited.

172 Section L, Paragraphs 2.11.8 & 2.11.3, pages 3-4 and 5 Inclusion of Glossary of Abbreviations & Acronyms by Volume In Section L, paragraph 2.11.8, the RFP calls for each volume to contain a Glossary of Abbreviations & Acronyms; however, Section L, paragraph 2.11.3 only shows this Glossary in Volume I and Volume IV. Should Volume II and Volume III contain this Glossary as well?

Table is revised to include a glossary in all volumes.

173 Section L, Paragraph 2.11.4, page 4 Page Limitations Section L (2.11.4) states: “Each page shall be counted except blank pages, title pages, tables of contents, tabs, indexes, glossaries, and those noted in the proposed organization chart as unlimited.” Will the Government please clarify what is meant by the reference to the proposed organization chart in this statement? Is the organization chart exempt from the page limit in Volume I?

Revised to read "proposal organization chart". If something is listed as "unlimited" in the proposal organization chart (Table 2.11.3), it will not be included in the page limit.

Section L, Paragraph 2.11.1, page 3 Inclusion of Title Pages and Team Lists in Volumes II & III Should Offerors include a Title Page and Team List in Volume III? If so, do page limits apply?

Table is revised to include title pages and team lists in all volumes. Page limits do not apply.

Section L, Paragraphs 2.11.7 & 2.11.3, pages 3-4 and 5 Inclusion of Table of Contents and List of Tables and Figures in Volumes II and III In Section L, paragraph 2.11.7, the RFP states that each Volume shall contain a Table of Contents as well as an indexed list of tables and figures. Section L, paragraph 2.11.3, only features a Table of Contents in Volumes I and IV. Should Volumes II and III also include a Table of Contents?

Table is revised to include a table of contents for each volume.

Section L, Paragraph 3.2.5, page 8 Mission Essential Services In paragraph 3.2.5 of Section L, Offerors are directed to “provide all of the following essential components IAW PWS 1.2.11.1.” PWS 1.2.11.1 provides Offerors with a list of mission-essential functions, to include PWS 1.2.1.3.3; however, we cannot find paragraph 1.2.1.3.3 in the PWS. Will the Government please clarify this requirement?

PWS references are updated to delete paragraph 1.2.1.3.3.

The RFP states “the technical evaluation will also consider risk in determining overall acceptability. Risk pertains to the potential for unsuccessful contract performance.

Risk will not receive a separate rating; rather, it will be inherent within the subfactor ratings, and the overall technical rating.” The RFP states that offerors are expected to address risk in their technical proposals and risk will be part of the evaluation methodology for Volume I – Technical; however, Section L does not indicate where this risk discussion should appear in the proposal. Will the Government please direct offerors where to include a risk discussion within Volume I? Will the Government please consider increasing the page limit of Volume I by five pages to allow offerors to adequately address risks for each technical subfactor?

As stated, the Government will consider the risk inherent in the contractor's proposed technical approach. This is separate from discussion of risk from an offeror.

Offerors are only required to discuss risk in Subfactor 1: Transition (the last bullet). If an offeror chooses to propose a risky technical approach, it would be prudent to identify and discuss mitigating factors, as applied to all technical subfactors.

In Section L paragraph 4.3.2, the RFP states “Offerors shall provide a narrative explaining what aspects of the contracts are deemed relevant to the proposed effort and to what aspects of the proposed effort they relate.” Later in this paragraph, the RFP directs offerors to address problems encountered and program risk. Finally, offerors are directed to “categorize the relevance information into the specific technical subfactors and Price Assessment used to evaluate the proposal.” We interpret these requirements to mean the following:

1. Offerors should first address contract relevancy in terms of the Tinker PWS in the specific content narrative in order to demonstrate relevancy in contract scope. This narrative would include the major services required in the PWS, which would provide relevancy in terms of “similar service, similar complexity of the effort, breadth and depth of skills, [and] similar contract scope and type,” all of which are listed as part of the relevancy assessment for contract scope in Section M.

2. Then, offerors should include a discussion of problems encountered that is organized by the technical subfactors.

Will the Government please clarify if our interpretation is correct?

Yes, this is a correct interpretation.

Question #115, Answer #1.

“Refer to 1.2.5.1.4.”

In their response, the Government referenced PWS 1.2.5.1.4. This section appears to refer to work performed exclusively during retro commissioning.

Does section 1.2.5.1.4 refer to work that is to be performed exclusively during retro commissioning? Outside of retro commissioning efforts, will “air balancing” efforts still be needed? If so, will the Government please define air balancing requirements for those areas not under retro commissioning?

TAB will be required to support RCx program. Any other requirement will on as needed basis by WO. NEBB certification will be required for all balancing efforts.

PWS will be revised to reflect this.

Question #144, Answer #2.

“Increases beyond bandwidth will be handled through modification.”

Clarification of “beyond bandwidth” in relation to workload data.

By bandwidth, is the Government referring to the number of meters in the PWS and workload data?

A PM modification will be executed when: the work load effort exceeds the level of effort identified in the COLS level (+/- one man-year (2,080 hours)).

PWS 1.1.5, page 15 Programming Plan for Implementation of Enterprise-Wide Civil Engineer Transformation Will the Government please provide offerors with a copy of Headquarters United States Air Force, Programming Plan for Implementation of Enterprise-Wide Civil Engineer Transformation, dated 13 November 2012 (P-Plan)?

P-Plan will be provided with RFP

Question #149, Answer #3.

Is it the Government’s intent to provide all offerors with the existing Contractor’s SOPs?

It is Government's intent to provide current SOP, which currently defines requirement. (Verify FBO)

Question #164, Answer #1.

“Current SOPs will be provided...”

Clarification requested regarding the ownership of software and data related to the Barcoding Program.

Should the Contractor elect to store the data obtained in the Barcoding Program in a Contractor-owned software system, does the software itself belong to the Government at the end of the Contract or is the Government’s ownership limited to the data collected?

1.4.1.3 Database Management. All the software programs and databases created, managed, or developed in support of this contract must be turned over to Government at the end of the term of the contract in original and useable format with functional software. All work performed under this contract shall be accomplished and saved on a Government server, which is managed by the Government.
