Questions and Answers 22 October 2024

1. Is this the first time this service is being requested, or is there a past award that I can look into?

Response: This is a brand-new contract, there is no incumbent nor are there prior or current awards to review.

2. I see that one of the evaluation requirements is that we have 3 past performances in Red Hat Training. We have past performance in computer training but not specifically Red Hat. We have instructors who have the Red Hat System Administration (RHSA) Certification or the Red Hat System Engineer (RHSE) Certification but we have never taught a class specifically on Red Hat.

I wanted to know if that is a deal breaker for you before moving forward.

Response: The award will be made as a best-value decision based on technical, past performance, and a determination that the price is fair and reasonable. This criterion includes the past performance and the relevancy of that performance but encompasses other factors. The Government cannot give guidance as to whether you should submit an offer. We will weigh all the aforementioned criteria to make the best-value determination.

3. Were there any changes to the specs?

Response: Please see the Performance Work Statement to review the current specifications for this acquisition.

4. Is there a minimum amount of money dedicated to this contract?

Response: There is funding available for the requested service, however specifics about the amounts are not able to be disclosed.

5. Are there any other technical training projects similar to this one?

Response: This is a brand-new contract. Please search SAM.gov to locate and review similar technical training projects/contracts that have been awarded by other agencies.

6. Do you have a start date for the first class or the contract?

Response: Contract performance is anticipated to begin 6 January 2025.

7. Is Microsoft teams for a training platform approved?

Response: Microsoft teams is an acceptable platform and is a preferred method of delivery.

5. Pricing will have to be given for 14 classes since the distribution will be 12-14 classes, correct?

Response: The Government is requesting that pricing is provided per pupil with the associated instructor costs included. The vendor should price to the max number of pupils.
