HSTS04-08-R-CT2042 Amendment 00001

HSTS04-08-R-CT2042 is being amended with the following two changes:

1. Step-8 paragraph two is being modified to state – “The specific dates to be eligible for an award in fiscal Year 2009…” The change is shown in the full text below, the amended text is show in bold font and underlined.

Step-8 After the OT&E, TSA will analyze the results. If the unit passes Qualification Testing and is deemed acceptable after the OT&E data analysis, the vendor will be required to submit a proposal within 15 days of notification by the contracting officer. The vendor’s proposal will be evaluated in accordance with the basis for award in Section M of the RFP. Placement on the QPL does not guarantee a contract award; however, if the vendor’s proposal meets the award criteria in Section M of the RFP an Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity will be awarded with a minimum and maximum number of units the government will purchase over the life of the contract. The vendor will also receive an initial delivery order for the minimum number of units. Subsequent orders for units will be competed among the QPL vendors and the award criteria will include, but not be limited to the ability for the equipment to detect the current or emerging threats, life cycle cost and the vendor’s performance during OT&E.

Below are the approximate timelines for submission of white papers until establishment of the QPL. The specific dates to be eligible for an award in fiscal Year 2009 will be provided at Industry Day. The Government reserves the right to adjust the time frames of the QPL timeline below.
