3 RFP page 94, section 2.5.5 Can the government extend the 3 year requirement for past performance currency to 5 years?

The government team feels 3 years is a reasonable amount of time when considering past performance.

8 Performance Specification Table 3.4, MRS-1 Our understanding from MRS-1 is that the ATC Remote Status Indicator is to be provided per location. Given there can be between 1-4 ILS’s per location and the ILS equipment CLIN’s are broken out between the Localizer and Glideslope, we recommend to add separate CLIN's (0001AF, 0002AF-4002AF) for the ATC Remote Status Indicator requirement?

See additional Government Response

We recommend that the CLIN be added due to the difference between the number of ILS kits requested in the existing CLIN structure and the number of RSI's required (1 RSI per location).

Government team concurs and will issue a separate CLIN for the RSI, etc. equipment on an RFP amendment asap.

9 Performance Specification FCR-4 For the flight check radio system, is all hardware, software and IA certification (AFI33-210) required to be provided for voice communication by both telephone and ethernet (VOIP) connectivity?

Also, is all hardware, software and IA certification required to be provided for remote status by both telephone and ethernet (TCP/IP) connectivity?

Yes, however not at the time of proposal submission or contract award.

SOW Performance Spec 1.6.2 MRS-1 Pg 6, 8

ILS Modernization Kits There is no remote control defined to be provided with the designated kits. Is the USG providing this or will there be a separate CLIN ?

The system is required to have remote capability; however, the remote control unit is not a part of this effort.

For clarity, the Performance Spec defines a requirement under MRS-1 for an ATC Remote Status Indicator. Will the USG provide a separate CLIN for this item?

Government team concurs and will issue a separate CLIN for the RSI, etc. equipment on an RFP amendment asap.

USG Response Dec 201 (sic) Perf Spec, Para 2.1.1.1., Pg 2

When should we expect that the USG will provide these CDs?

The CD's will be mailed via Fed Ex and requestors will be notified by email with tracking information.

Perf Spec Env-6, Pg 8

In effort to provide evidence of compliance, the thermal load of the existing equipment must be known.What is the thermal load of the GRN- 29 equipment?

This information is contained in the CDs that will be mailed via Fed Ex.

Per Spec 3.1.1 Pg 7

“This modernization effort shall in no way degrade the existing ILS performance characteristics or signal-in-space. The current system specifications and leading particulars can be found in T.O. 31R4- 2GRN- 29-2, 31R4-2GRN30-2 and31R4-2GRN31-2.” Will the USG provide these Technical orders?
