SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION SF 30 - BLOCK 14 CONTINUATION PAGE

The following have been added by full text:

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q1. If the item never existed, can we offer a similar substitute?

A1. Only for the accessories.

Q2. Regarding different model numbers and finishes, what would be considered a standard so that the instruments are uniform? (applies to drums primarily)

A2. For the drum sets, gloss black is standard.

Q3. Since shipping will be announced per order, is it possible to get a listing of the potential delivery addresses in Asia and California?

A3. Each delivery order issued against the contract will have its own specific delivery destination(s) and requirement. For example, the Government may decide that shipment be sent to Defense Distribution Center, 25600 Chrisman Rd., Tracy Facility, CCP Bldg, Tracy, CA 95376 with a Mark For address to a particular DoDDS school in the Pacific, or that the shipment go directly to an APO military address. APO military addresses will be provided in a forthcoming amendment.

Q4. Some of our suppliers have expressed the difficulty in providing an estimate for pricing farther out than 2010. This is due to raw material and labor costs changing rapidly. Do you have access to an inflationary rate that may be used in the interim and is it possible to renegotiate price dus to the length of the tender?

A4. Offerors should provide a price for beyond 2010. However, should there be an inflation-based need to adjust pricing later beyond 2010, the contractor who receives the contract award may request an equitable adjustment to contract prices with written justification for the increase request.

Q5. Is there any provision for manufacturer price increases each year?

A5. There is no standard known to the Government for yearly musical instrument manufacturer price increases.

However, inflationary conditions may affect yearly prices.
