Amendment 0002

Responses to Industry Questions

Q1. Pattern Discrepancy: More specifically, Table VI of the PD shows the number of cut pieces and types of fabric for each piece. Please note that this table shows the collar as part of the non stretch woven material. However, the patterns clearly show that the collar is part of the cut pieces for the stretch woven material. Please clarify what source is correct: pattern or PD cut list?

A1. The pattern is correct. The Government updated the PD to reflect that the collar is to be cut out of the stretch woven material.

Q2. When we open the patterns, the Yoke pieces appear to be located in a manner that is NOT consistent with the warp direction. Is it the Government's intent to have contractors cut the patterns exactly as shown in the patterns, or is the Contractor responsible for determining the correct warp direction in relation to the other pattern pieces? Please note that the aforementioned question is ONLY for the Yoke. All other pattern pieces appear to be properly oriented.

A1. The yoke is positioned for the center front zipper to be on the warp. Please follow the pattern and cut as is.

Q3. There have been delays receiving the correct color on two of the components, Gimp Thread and Slide Fasteners, we have alternates which are the correct specification just not the correct color. Would it be acceptable to use these components if the correct colors are not received in time? It would be noted in our proposal. Please advise.

A3. It will be acceptable, butthe Government will accept a color change in the Product Demonstration Models only.
