The solicitation is available on Fedbizops.

Have a great Sunday!

We could not view solicitation # HT0011-12-R-0018 documents on the FBO website. The link said "page not found". How can we see what it is?

Alim-I am working/looking over this solicitation.

1 If we are to bid on the RFQ- are we able to bid on providing services for just Item #0006

(since we do not provide services in the other Item #’s such as 0001)

You can bid on one, or all of the items.

2. Also must you accept all geographical locations ? (It was unclear to me if you needed to accept ALL geographical areas or you could limit your areas in the North RFQ ???)

You must cover the entire area as listed in the RFQ.

Hello Mr. Koroma, I have reviewed the following solicitations:

HT0011-12-R-0019 (TRO-North Technical Services BPA)

HT0011-12-R-0020 (TRO-West Technical Services BPA)

HT0011-12-R-0021 (TRO-South Technical Services BPA)

Can you let me know, will the government accept bids on specific items in the solicitation if the bidding company does not bid on every item listed in the solicitation?

For example, if we were to bid solely on the sign language interpretation part of the opportunity, would the government allow this?

Any clarification you can provide would be very much appreciated.

You can bid on one, or all of the items.

Good afternoon Mr. Fox, Regarding the Solicitation for Technical Services BPA West, HT001112R0020: I am hoping to obtain a list of the incumbents for this effort. Can you provide this, or is there a document that contains the incumbent information? I appreciate your help!

There is no incumbent

Hello. Our organization is considering responding to this opportunity (HT0011-12-R-0019). However, we have some questions and don't know where to direct them (below).

Is there a formal process/period for questions and answers?

Our questions are as follows:

1. In some areas of this document services are referred to as "Interpreting Services” in other areas, the same service seems to be referred to as "Technical Services". Is this a typo? If not, can you explain "Interpreting Services"?

Interperting Services are defined as providing sign language or other communications means to persons who are hard of hearing or deaf.

2. Does CAP have a required/target response time for services to begin once ordered? This will be specified in individual calls. This is a

BPA.

What is the anticipated time of award of this contract? If awarded, when must services begin? The individual calls will specify this.

4. Is there any available data on the number of hours and types of services currently provided in each geographic area? No

5. Is report-writing time a service that will be reimbursed? No

6. Is staff time spent while traveling reimbursed? No

7. Is it possible to provide "Need assessment" services remotely via telephone or other video phone methods? No

Thank you.

Alim, If we respond to this solicitation are we saying we are willing to provide services to all states in that region? I know it says more than one company may be awarded a type of service. We have done work for CAP for many years in Minnesota, the Dakotas and Wisconsin and these are the only states we can realistically service. Is there any point in us submitting a bid if that is the case?

Thank you, Hi Alim, I am hoping to obtain a list of incumbent for the Technical Services BPA West effort, HT001112R0020. Is this information available? I appreciate your help.
