C-17 TAWS
ItemRFP ReferenceComment/QuestionGovernment Reply
1RFP page 78, Provision L-900, II.A GeneralRequest the Government clarify whether Volumes I and V are to be combined into a single
document for submittal. For Volume V, it is identified as, "Price Volume (with proposal with completed RFP" and Volume I is identified as "Completed RFP".The Government concurs.
2RFP page 78, Provision L-900, II.A GeneralRequest the Government clarify if there are specific limitations on page size, margins and font size
for the proposal Volumes. If so, do these limitations apply to illustrations and graphics as well?Font sizes and graphics apply to Volume II. Adjust as necessary to be 30 pages or less.
3RFP page 78, Provision L-900, II.A GeneralTaking into consideration the potential delays in postal and private carrier package deliveries due to COVID-19, we respectfully request the Government accept proposal delivery via DoD SAFE upload in lieu of CD/DVDs to assure Government receipt.DoD Safe Site can be used.
4PWS, Section 1.1Request the C-17 TAWS Tool application installer be provided to allow evaluation of the application. We understand sharing a complete Bidders Library may not be possible at this time as source code and certain documents may be currently marked Proprietary.TAWS Tool Application Installer will not be provided.
5Cost Volume Section L-900It appears that the government only requires a table similar to that outlined on page 89 (CLIN level pricing) however, the RFP does make reference on page 88 that additional information associated with FAR 15.4 may be required. Should we prepare the cost formats associated with FAR 15.4 and *only* submit if requested later?Submittal of cost formats associated with FAR 15.4 is not required to be submitted with proposal at this time
6Data CLINsIs it correct to assume that the DATA CLINS should be marked as “NSP” (not separately priced)?That is correct. Please see Amended RFP
7Travel1. There is no travel or ODC CLINs listed even though the PWS includes support for meetings that could require travel. Should we propose estimated travel or ODC or will that be negotiated after an award?Please see amended RFP for the Travel CLIN added.
