1. Section L, Subfactor 2, requirement 3., requires an approach to maintain multiple hardware and software baselines. Is the Government asking for an approach to maintain the same trainer baseline across multiple sites, or differing baselines across multiple devices, or reconciling the two TSSC sites, or just making HW and SW changes to the training devices in general over time? Will the Government please clarify this Section L requirement?

The government is looking for the offeror's approach on how they will maintain the current OFT and APTT baselines at each site with two TSSC's in operation.

2. Will the Government provide the number of Type 1 and Type II changes processed by the TSSC at Pensacola and the TSSC at Randolph?

Currently, there is only active T-1 (Temporary Modification) processed (completed AF1067) at the TSSC at Pensacola for CSO, however this modification did not affect the hardware baseline.

3. PWS Paragraph 3.3.2, TSSC Tasks, states that the TSSC equipment shall not be used for any other purpose without prior TSSC COR approval. Is the TSSC COR mentioned in the requirement the same as the T-1A site COR at Randolph and at Pensacola or is this a COR specific to the TSSC only? If the TSSC COR is specific to the TSSC only, is there a TSSC COR at each of the TSSC sites, Randolph and Pensacola? Please clarify.

There is no specific TSSC COR, the COR for the site is also responsible for the TSSC.
