ADDITIONAL Q&A

Q: … the quantity quote for line item 001, the requests asks for a bid on a max quantity of 12 for the preventative maintenance of the listed vehicles, will there only be 12 total vehicles being serviced, or 12 services for the 120 or so vehicles listed, so is this quote for 12 services or Max 1440 services?

A: Please see revised CLINs.

Q; line item 002: max quantity of 1? Will there only be one hour authorized for repairs?

A: Per hourly rate for repairs that are not included in the preventative maintenance. Multiple hours may be used after a per hour rate is established.

Q: line item 003: to accurately give a quote for parts, is there an accurate inventory of all vehicle and their current condition, are all vehicle up and running with no repairs need at this time? Is there an estimate for each vehicle that needs repair?

A: This price will be determined at the time of repair and provided through the estimate given to the COR. For quoting purposes leave this CLIN blank.

Q: Is this a fixed price bid for all services, parts and labor?

A: Yes. Parts will be a fixed price at the time of repair.

Q: Question on 52.216-19, will no parts be purchased by either the contractor or the government under 25.00? How will items under 25.00 be purchased?

(b maximum order of 500.00, if a required part is over 500, does this vehicle not get repaired?

A: In a typical situation there will not be a task order for less than $25.00, since they will be for multiple machines for multiple repairs and parts. 500 refers to quantity.

Q: 3.5 with the time limit of 14 days for repairs, does this exclude vehicle waiting on parts on back order?

A: Certain circumstance will be arranged with the COR.

Q: 52.216-22 (b) Will there be a maximum price for the parts to be purchased by the contractor during this contract time period? this number can vary by a significant amount.

A: See "CLIN MINIMUM/MAXIMUM QUANTITY AND CLIN VALUE" and "CLIN DELIVERY/TASK ORDER MINIMUM/MAXIMUM QUANTITY AND CLIN ORDER VALUE" for details.

Q: 52.222-42 is the equivalent labor rate quoted 26.50 what the government is using for a guideline? the going rate for this type of repair is 120.00 per hour + cost of doing business...…...

A: "This Statement is for Information Only: It is not a Wage Determination"

Q: CLIN MINIMUM/MAXIMUM QUANTITY AND CLIN VALUE line item 002 maximum quantity is 500, what is the unit of this value, will it be no more than 500 hours, or individual repairs? this is conflicting if the quote requested is for fixed price for the PWS described, particularly if the service interval is fowled by the (IAW) Manufacturer Specifications) statement. This will vary greatly dependent on hours on each vehicle.

A: 500 hours is what is expected to be used on repairs. This is not hours used during preventative maintenances.

Q: 3.1 Service calls. Will these be limited to on base only, or expanded to the training area, will a tracked recovery vehicle be supplied by the government if the recovery is off base in the training area during winter snow conditions?

A: All vehicles that require Corrective Maintenance (CM) will be recovered out of the training areas by the MT section and staged in base camp either at Bldg. 1040 or the Exercise Allocation Pool (EAP) lot in lower base camp for later repair.

Q: 3.5 will a repair estimate only be required for ATVs and not snowmobiles and motorcycles?

A: Estimates will be required for all repairs above and beyond the preventative maintenance.

Q: 4.0 Will the work space being provided be indoors inside building 1040, and is a vehicle lift installed in this facility? If not will the government consider vehicles being transported to the contractors local repair facility at the cost of the contractor on a weekly rotating basis?

A: Space will be provided as required. There is no vehicle lift, however there is a 2 ton winch for vehicle lift as required and a sub floor (the pit as we call it) where maintenance can be conducted under the vehicle without the need for a lift.

Q&A Question: “Can this subtask in the requirements be explained more in detail? 3.6.1.2. Conduct the seasonal transition to and from Mattracks as directed by the CORs.”

Answer: As part of the Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) fleet, we maintain UTVs that will be outfitted with the Mattracks M3 UR HD track system (little more than taking wheels off, adding brackets, and the tracks are attached to the hub). These selected vehicles will be outfitted with tires from May-November and transition to Mattracks November-May in order to drive on snow and deep powder during winter exercises. Any experienced mechanic should be able to accomplish this, and we have step by step instructions on our computers here for reference.

Question: “…is the equipment list accurate?”

Answer: Please see the updated equipment list. (Items listed with “DRMO” is equipment to be cannibalized/completely down/to be replaced/etc. determined by COR and vendor)

52.212-2 ADDENDUM

52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS--ADDENDUM

Basis for contract award - This acquisition is being conducted under FAR Parts 12 and 13. Offers will be evaluated using the factors identified in FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation – Commercial items. Noncompliance may be grounds to eliminate the proposal from consideration for contract award. Award will be made utilizing a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) source selection method. By submission of its offer in accordance with the instructions provided in clause FAR 52.212-1, Instructions To Offerors, the offeror agrees to the terms of this solicitation.

First, the quotes will be ranked in order from lowest to highest based on the price. The lowest priced quotation will then be evaluated and receive a rating of Acceptable or Unacceptable based on the criteria below. In order to be rated as Acceptable, the Technical quote must meet the government's minimum requirements as described in the schedule. Quotes deemed Unacceptable are those that fail to meet the Government's minimum requirements.

Past performance will then be evaluated and assigned a rating of Acceptable or Unacceptable. In order to be rated as Acceptable, the past performance must present a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror’s performance record is unknown.

If the lowest priced offeror’s Technical quote and past performance are rated acceptable, the government will then evaluate pricing to determine fair and reasonableness per FAR 13.106-3.

If the lowest priced quotation is evaluated to have an acceptable technical quote, acceptable past performance, and fair and reasonable prices, per FAR 13.106-3, the Government will complete a responsibility determination IAW the criteria specified in FAR 9.104-1. If found responsible, the Government may stop the evaluation process at this point as that quote represents the best value to the Government. Award shall be made to that offeror without further consideration of any other offers.

If the lowest priced quotation is assigned an unacceptable rating, or if the price is determined not fair and reasonable or if the Quoter is found to be non-responsible, the next lowest priced quote will be evaluated. This process will continue (in ascending order) until an offeror is evaluated to have an acceptable technical rating, fair and reasonable prices and the offeror is deemed responsible or until all offers have been evaluated.

The Government reserves the right to evaluate all quotes. The award will be made to the offeror whose proposal represents the best value to the government on a LPTA basis, factoring in price and non-price factors – Technical Capability and Past Performance.

Factor 1: Technical

Each offeror’s technical proposal will be evaluated by their presented ability to execute the performance work statement and will be defined as Acceptable or Unacceptable as defined below:

Technical Acceptable/Unacceptable Ratings

Factor 2: Price

In order to be considered for award, price must be determined fair and reasonable and balanced (or if unbalanced pricing exists that it does not pose an unacceptable risk to the government) using one or more techniques set forth in FAR 13.106-3.

Factor 3: Past Performance

The Government will conduct a performance risk assessment the offeror’s record of past and current performance, as well as that of its proposed subcontractors and team member as it relates to the probability of successfully performing the requirements of the solicitation. The past performance evaluation will consider the offeror's demonstrated recent (within the past three years) and relevant (providing the items identified in the schedule) record of performance in supplying supplies that meet the solicitation’s requirements. Offerors are advised that in conducting the past performance assessment, the Government may use data provided in the Offeror’s proposal and data obtained from other sources.

Past performance will be rated on an “acceptable” or “unacceptable” basis.

Past Performance Evaluation Ratings

Note: In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. Therefore, the offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance.
