Question # Question Answer
I have reviewed all attachments and am still unsure if you are looking for a NEW fully developed programming or implementation, development, and evaluation of current programming already in place? In other words, is the contract to oversee current programming or implement new (or both?) See Solicitation, HE125423Q0002, PWS, Task 1.
BASE education has partnered with 7 Mindsets and their platform hits all technical volume elements. Subcontractors are welcomed, please make sure that they are identified.
This solicitation is noted as unrestricted and not a set aside. We are a WOSB, could we still submit our certification with the solicitation? Or does that not matter?
Yes, it's not a set aside any potential vendor who can meet the requirement can submit a quote. WOSB can submit their certification along with their quote.
On pages 31-32 it outlines some of the requirements for Key Personnel. Can you describe more on the requirement 3.2.4 (4) that says “have at least five years of research experience with military partners and extensive experience in translational research, literature review, technical report development...” Is that five years for each of those points? Or five years combined? Can you clarify a little more of that Director requirement?
Cumulative experience refers to the combined total of relevant experience across all points outlined in 3.2.4. Rather than requiring each point to be fulfilled independently, we consider the overall experience of the candidate in these areas. The objective is to ensure that the Director has a comprehensive understanding of conducting research with the military culture, possesses the necessary skills in translational research, and it adept at literature review and technical report development in accordance with PWS section 3.2.4.
On page 46 2.1.3.1. Key Personnel it asks for a “detailed resume for all their quoted key personnel.” With the university we are working on this solicitation there will are changes most semesters to graduate and Ph.D. students that would serve as research support staff. It’s unclear who those exactly will be. Could we just refer to research support staff in the solicitation without specific names and resumes?
The Government understand that providing resumes for Research Support staff may be atypical, especially considering potential changes in graduate-level interns.. Therefore a bio sketch for Research Support staff member maybe acceptable. A bio sketch provides a concise overview of the qualifications, experience and relevant skills of the personnel.
On page 31 2.1.8 there’s Technical Support requirement on providing “industry-standard technical support”. Is this 24/7 support? Also, it’s unclear what exactly the technical support is related to the digital resources. Can you clarify?
No, technical support is not 24/7, support shall be provided in accordance with PWS section 2.1.8. the support shall encompass all the services listed in the PWS.
