About this file
This is a Questions and Answers document for solicitation FA857126Q0035, a competitive 8(a) set-aside for tool crib management services. The procurement is a follow-on contract to FA8571-21-D-0009, with T47 International as the incumbent contractor. The contract type is Firm Fixed Price (FFP) with an annual requirement of 1,856 hours per Full-Time Equivalent (FTE). Work hours are 0600–1430 Monday through Friday with no after-hours services required. The supervisor position wage rate is $58.91 per hour under Wage Determination 2015-4495. The Government will provide office/cubicle space and a government computer for the supervisor, as well as access to Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) vehicles as needed for duty performance. The contractor must maintain a 90% monthly completion rate for toolbox/tool kit production, with failure to meet this threshold resulting in a negative Performance Assessment Report from the Contracting Officer Representative (COR). Performance metrics are driven by the number of toolboxes needed for newly hired Government and contractor aircraft workers and technicians. The 14-day transition period assistance will be provided exclusively by the Government COR and Government Representatives (WR-ALC/OBWC), not the incumbent contractor.
The solicitation references a revised Performance Work Statement (PWS) eliminating satellite tool crib requirements at Buildings 321 and reassigning all contractor personnel to the master tool cribs in Building 301. The contract includes Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL) deliverables marked "NSP" (No Separate Price) covering DD Form 1423 requirements A001 through E004, included in each period of performance. Incumbent employee information, including hire dates and vacation accrual rates necessary for Service Contract Act compliance, will not be provided until contract award. The Program Manager position is non-salaried and held by a company executive who serves as the single point of contact with Government; the on-site Supervisor reports to the Government Supervisor and manages contractor personnel. Offerors must be currently certified in the SBA 8(a) program at time of submission and award, with no additional eligibility conditions for joint ventures or other participation structures specified. Industry will be notified of any changes to the 8(a) set-aside status.
