Rifle Mag Pouch RFP Q&As
Industry QuestionGov't Response
1What is the number of magazines is the pouch required to hold?As stated in 2.3.2 of the SOW, the proposed solution shall be configured or capable of being configured to hold two magazines.
2What type of pouch closure is desired?The pouch closure chosen is up to the vendor as long as the pouch meets the requirements specified in the 2.3.2 of the SOW.
3What type of attachment system is desired, such as PALS?As stated in 2.3.2 of the SOW, the pouch must be compatible with PALS.
5What is the desired MIL-STD for materials or reference NSN?The materials used are up to the vendor as long as the materials meet the Near Infrared Requirements and are compliant with the Berry Amendment as provided in 2.3.2 of the SOW.
6What is the minimum anticipated quantity per month to be delivered?The anticipated minimum production quantity is 10,000 per month.
7Is Attachment 03 Proposal Submission Form all that needs to be submitted to be compliant or is there another RFP submission format?Attachment 03 Proposal Submission Form is part of the proposal submission. There are additional requirements found in Attachment 02 Provisions and Clauses, specifically Addendum to 52.212-1 Instructions to Offerors - Commercial Items.
8Attachment 02 Provisions or Clauses addresses many of the same things as Attachment 03 Proposal Submission Form, but then states that, "The technical proposal shall not exceed five pages and shall be in accordance with the below format”….my question is whether this 5 page technical proposal is a requirement for this solicitation, or just part of the ADDENDUM TO 52.212-1 INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS – COMMERCIAL ITEMS (DEVIATION 2018-O0018) (AUG 2018)?Attachment 03 Proposal Submission Form and the technical proposal will form the proposal submission requirements. Attachment 03 Proposal Submission Form covers Price, Past Performance, and the Go/No Go criteria. The technical proposal discussed in Attachment 02 Provisions and Clauses, Addendum to 52.212-1 Instructions to Offerors - Commercial Items, covers the technical requirements of the Rifle Magazine Pouch.
9How does an interested party get “log in” permissions for the Attachment 4 Sensitive/ Secure Package?To request explicit access to Attachment 04, Offerors should download the FBO Vendor User Guide and contact the Federal Service Desk for assistance.
10IAW with the SOW of the above solicitation, do we need to indeed submit the QTY 5 samples of each color (Coyote and MARPAT Woodland) with our submission OR 24 “Source Selection” samples as list in "Table 1: Technical Proposal Criteria” of “Attachment 02_Provisions and Clauses”.The Pre-Production Validation (PPV) samples required by the SOW are required AFTER contract award. The PPV samples will be ordered on Delivery Order 1 under CLINs 0001 and 0002. The 24 Source Selection Samples are required as part of the proposal submission in accordance with Attachment 2 Provisions and Clauses, Addendum to 52.212-1 Instructions to Offerors - Commercial Items.
11If 24 samples are indeed requested, what is the breakdown of the colors? Coyote versus MARPAT Woodland?In accordance with Attachment 2 Provisions and Clauses, Addendum to 52.212-1 Instructions to Offerors - Commercial Items, 24 Source Selection Samples are required as part of the proposal submission. Either color, Coyote or MARPAT Woodland, are acceptible.
12Page #2: “Offerors shall also provide Source Selection Samples to outfit eight Marines with six magazines each (e.g 24 pouches for a double magazine design).”

The interpretation is this is equal to (8 Marines) x (6 magazine pouches) = 48 Magazine Pouch Bid Samples Page #3 Table 1: Source Selection Samples = 24 Magazine Pouch Bid Samples

Can you please clarify how many bid samples are required for M67854-19-R-1549?24 Double Magazine Pouches are required for proposal submission.
13What percent will be Coyote vs Woodland? We need to know for proper pricing because the cost of each material is different.Quantities for the different colors are unknown at this time.
14For CLIN 3 how much will be shipped to what locations? We need this information to calculate the correct shipping cost which affects the pricing.Quantities for locations are unknown at this time.
15How do the units need to be packaged? This affects the price. For example, does each unit need its own package like a plastic bag or can we pack 100 loose in a box?Packaging shall be in accordance with best commercial practices.
16Is “Woodland MARPAT” the same as “Digital Woodland MARPAT?” If not, which one, or both, can be used?Yes, they are the same and both can be used.
