A. The following question and answer section is provided for informational purposes only:

1. Is the firearm proposed for use on this resulting contract the same as currently used by the incumbent?

Answer: No – Incumbent guard force is using .38s.

2. Do the incumbent employees meet the training requirements of this solicitation?

Answer: The incumbent guard force should have current certification cards, which is consistent with the training requirements of the current contract. Additional information regarding incumbent employee training records will be provided to the awardee.

3. Please provide a seniority list to establish the correct amount of vacation pay.

Answer: Per FAR 22.1020, If a contract is performed at a Federal facility where employees may be hired/retained by a succeeding contractor, the incumbent prime contractor is required to furnish a certified list of all service employees on the contractor’s or subcontractor’s payroll during the last month of the contract, together with anniversary dates of employment, to the contracting officer no later than 10 days before contract completion. (See paragraph (n) of the clause at 52.222-41, Service Contract Act of 1965.) At the commencement of the succeeding contract, the contracting officer shall provide a copy of the list to the successor contractor for determining employee eligibility for vacation or other fringe benefits which are based upon length of service, including service with predecessor contractors if such benefit is required by an applicable wage determination.

4 Is the Contract Manager position required to be dedicated exclusively to the contract full-time?

Answer: The vendor should use its discretion in determining how to utilize the CM position relative to the requirements of the solicitation, and should keep in mind that the government will be regularly monitoring performance.

5. What are the current billing rates?

Answer: This information is not releasable.

6. I have looked at all of the information regarding this HUBZone set aside. I cannot find the productive (guard) and nonproductive (Supervisor) guard requirement. Since the CLINs list the unit as monthly, could you please clarify what the specific requirement is?

Answer: Please see Attachment 1- Post Exhibit

7. Is this a Total HUB-Zone requirement?

Answer: Yes, as stated in the solicitation, this is a total HUBZone requirement.

8. We are wondering if you have a total of the hours for the guard contract or the days and the hours per day?

Answer: Please see Attachment 1- Post Exhibit

9. Are you able to provide if Solicitation #: HSCEEC-08-R-00012 is a follow on to any current contracts? If so, I was hoping to obtain the following info: contractor name, contract number, award date and value. Thank you for your time and have a very nice day.

Answer: Yes, this is a follow on to contract # GS11P04MPC0026, which was awarded on 4/13/2004. The incumbent contractor is BTI Security. Regarding the value of the contract, there are multiple facilities on the current contract that are not included on the follow on. Accordingly, the dollar value of this current contract is not comparable to the follow-on effort.

B. All other terms and conditions remain unchanged.
