RFQ H92240-19-T-0028

FERS Retirement Training

Q&A Set 1 3 June 2019

Q1: Could you please tell me if this is a new contract requirement, or if there is a current or previous contract for these services?

A1: This is a new contract requirement.

Q2: Are all three classes FERS pre, FERS mid and 1 day TSP consecutive, taking place in the same week?

A2: As an Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contract, courses of instruction, dates and locations shall be specified/ordered at the Task Order level.

Q3: The bid is for only 3 classes each year of the contract? I understand that it can be held at several locations, but I wanted to verify that it would only be three classes total each year.

A3: Quoters shall provide Firm Fixed Prices for each COI listed for all locations and all years (1 through 5) under Attachment 2 - Exhibit Line Item (ELIN) Pricing Spreadsheet. As an Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contract, courses of instruction, dates and locations shall be specified/ordered at the Task Order level, therefore the number, types, and locations of trainings per year will vary.

Q4: You are looking for a price per class? Looking at the Attachment 2 spreadsheet, it is asking for total price per year.

A4: Yes, Quoters shall provide a firm fixed price per training (yellow cells). The total evaluated price per year will be calculated automatically. The Government will evaluate quotes for award purposes by adding the total prices for all five years, and the six-month extension via FAR 52.217-8.

Q5: Can the classes be priced for each set of deliveries within one week's time?

A5: An RFQ amendment is forthcoming to provide a revised Attachment 2 - Exhibit Line Item (ELIN) Pricing Spreadsheet, which will add two columns for each ELIN/Training to allow the quoter to provide an alternate firm fixed price per training when conducted in conjunction with one (1) or two (2) additional trainings during the same week.

Q6: Although there is no listing for a set-aside on the cover sheet of this RFP, within the 1st document there is verbiage requiring a Small Business for this award. Please confirm if there is or if there is not a set aside.

A6: Per Block 10 of the solicitation, this acquisition is 100% set aside for Small Business. The NAICS is 611430, and the size standard is $11,000,000.00.
