SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION L - INSTRUCTIONS, CONDITIONS AND NOTICES TO BIDDERS

The following have been added:

Section L-3.3 Solicitation Questions and Answers is added:

Questions and Answers:

Question 1 Section: L-3.1.2 RFP Change? YES Question:

File N00024-21-R-2295 Solicitation, Section L-3.1.2 Factor 2: Past Performance and Experience (PP&E) there should be the opportunity to have a better than neutral rating and the timeframe should be longer than three (3) years.

Answer:

This contract will be awarded on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) basis. Past Performance is evaluated as "acceptable" or "unacceptable" per the solicitation. A rating of "neutral" is considered "acceptable" per the solicitation.

Question 2 Section: N/A RFP Change? YES Question:

Will the Navy grant an extension of the proposal due date?

Answer:

Amendment 0001 extended the deadline for receipt of proposals to 8 April 2021.

Question 3 Section: N/A RFP Change? YES Question:

Section 085-6 OEM Certifications, Page 27 of Att_1_-_HSB_Specification_Rev B 23FEB2021 states: Shock isolation seat certification of satisfactory completion of the testing requirements of Section 662. Test documentation shall include a detailed test procedure, photos of test set up, data measurements, calculation and results. Question: It is clear that the report needs to be provided, however when the reports are required is unclear.

Can you please clarify at what stage in the procurement the report(s) shall be required? Do the reports need to be submitted with the proposals or later in post award?

Answer:

This document is distribution D and therefore cannot be posted on beta.SAM. The Government is considering options for distribution and if possible, will provide further instructions for release via subsequent Amendment Question 4 Section: N/A RFP Change? YES Question:

Did this solicitation have a pre-bid meeting/conference of any sort? We are looking for subcontracting opportunities.

Answer:

No, a pre-bid meeting was not held. However, the notice on beta.sam includes an “Interested Parties List” and interested parties are encouraged to utilize this feature.

Question 5 Section: N/A RFP Change? YES Question:

The current ISO 12217-3 standard is in revision (not available for download/sale) and the prior version has been retracted (also not available).

Answer:

N0002421R2295

The ISO standard 12217-3 is available from ISO online. Information sections of the ISO Std are shown for free and the Std in its entirety can be purchased from ISO:

https://www.iso.org/obp/ui/#iso:std:iso:12217:-3:ed-3:v1:en Question 6 Section: N/A RFP Change? YES Question:

243-1 Drive Shafts states "Drive shafts shall be FRP Cardan shafts meeting engine OEM requirements." Will the Government reconsider the requirement of using a FRP Carden shafts?

Answer:

The Government intends to revise Attachment 1 HSB Specification to remove the word "FRP" from 243-1 to allow for use of alternate materials.

Question 7 Section: N/A RFP Change? YES Section 079 of the Specification for HSB only refers to intact stability and not damage stability. Does this mean that the Government does not require HSB to meet the damage stability requirements of NAVSEACOMBATSYSENGSTA Report No. 6660-99 Rev. A? Can offerors assume that since the sentence regarding damage stability is omitted from the specification that it is not required?

Answer:

Concur, the HSB is not required to meet damage stability. Specification Section 079-1 requires the HSB to meet intact stability only: "Stability shall meet NAVSEACOMBATSYSENGSTA Report No. 6660-99 Rev. A, Procedures Manual for Stability Analysis of U.S. Navy Small Craft for intact stability in the Full Load and Min Op conditions for: *Beam winds combined with rolling per 6660-99 Rev. A Section 5.1.1, for Coastwise Service (wind speed of 60 knots at 10 meter height) *Crowding of passengers to one side per 6660-99 Rev. A Section 5.1.3"
