16 January 2025 Questions and Answers FA8523-25-R-0002
1. With regards to SOW, section 2.7, Data Management: ”The Contractor shall place the following on each and every page of data submitted under CDRL Exhibits A, B, and D: CAGE code (Contractor's CAGE for Exhibits A and D; CAGE 98752 for Exhibit B), document number, revision letter, and document date.”
A. Why are only the CDRLs in Exhibit B to contain the Government CAGE Code, 98752?
B. What about the other Exhibits not listed (Exhibits C, E through W)?
Government response: All the drawings CDRLS should require 98752 as that is the Robins Cage
Code.
2. Is using foreign customer contracts for the FIRST ARTICLE APPLICABILITY AND/OR CONDITIONS
FOR WAIVER accepted for FAI Waiver qualification Per Section L pg. 383?
Government response: The government will accept the use of a foreign supplier and their testing for FA of a part.
3. In the USG’s Q&A response of January 6, 2025 (USG Responses of January 6, 2025 6 through 9 below), the USG has indicated that “requested data is unavailable”. This comment is cause for two questions: 1) How can the data be unavailable if it is referenced in TDP and/or SOW? 2) Is it the USG’s expectation for offerors to submit a fully auditable, FAR 52.215-21-compliant proposal offering based upon an incomplete technical data package?
Government response: Due to age of data as referenced, and contractor internal software for test, the government is unable to provide the above referenced data
4. In the USG’s Q&A response of January 6, 2025 (Questions and Responses 4 below), the USG stated that the requested technical data was “in an updated file set released 6 January 2025”.
However, review of the described updated file set is still missing PL201218584. When will that data be provided?
Government response: Vendors who previously requested data and provided a copy of their
DD2345 have been sent above requested data.
5. Is the H901 clause, Delivery Requirements referenced as Table A in section L? Is there a separated document for the H901 clause, if so, please send me a copy.
Government response: Section H is contained within the solicitation document page(s) 330-331
