SECTION SF 30 BLOCK 14 CONTINUATION PAGE

The following items are applicable to this modification:

Responses for all questions submitted thus far are as follows:

1. Question - Reference DTL-WS-35695(OS) paragraph 4.3.1.3.1, RFP Section E and the USG response to a previous question. We are unable to find a required sampling plan for Majors and Minors. Are we correct that it is up to the contractor to determine an appropriate verification level using their quality program/system?

Response: Major and Minor characteristics shall be inspected in accordance with the Sampling Procedures and Tables for Inspection by Attributes, ANSI/ASQ Z1.4-2003, Table I General Inspection Level II and Table II-A. As a reminder, all nonconforming material shall be rejected and all Critical characteristics shall be examined 100% in accordance with the item specification, DTL-WS-35695.

2. Question - Reference DTL-WS-35695(OS) paragraph 4.3.1.3.1, RFP L.3.1 Sub-Factor 1 d) and the USG response to a previous question. RFP requires us to provide a "detailed description of the Offeror’s plans for meeting the requirements of DTL-WS-35695. The plans shall address the First Article Testing (FAT), In-Process Inspection, and Lot Acceptance Testing (LAT)." Since FAT and LAT is to be performed by the USG, is the requirement to describe how we will control quality to ensure that the items pass the tests and inspections performed by the USG rather than to describe how we would perform the tests ourselves?

Response: Yes, the plans should address the manufacturing steps that ensure the produced items pass all the in-process inspections and tests delineated per the item specification, DTL-WS-35695.

3. Question - RFP Section E paragraph 21 requires "The Contractor shall have the ballistic test fixtures and/or capabilities to assure that the item being procured meets the specification requirements." Does this include the capability to perform the setback required by DTL-WS-35695(OS) paragraph 3.14.5. and 4.4.17?

Response: Yes, the contractor shall have the capability to perform the setback functioning as required per paragraphs

3.14.5 and 4.4.17 if item specification DTL-WS-35695.

4. Question- Reference Small Business Subcontracting Plan requirement. Since this is an IDIQ contract with max quantity of 7,000 per year, should the total value of the plan match the potential total value if awarded the max quantity in each of the 5 ordering periods?

Response: The subcontracting plan must meet the requirements of FAR 52.219-9 and DFARS 252.219-7003 (or DFARS 252.219-7004 for a comprehensive subcontracting plan). The FAR only references “total dollars planned.”

Based on this statement, using the maximum quantity would be acceptable. Using the estimated quantity for each ordering period would also be acceptable.

5. Question - Reference Section H - Government Furnished Property, CLIN 0001AD and DTL-WS-35695 (OS). The referenced part of Section H identifies the quantity of GFP as 4,264. Please clarify how many PVU-12/A Ignition Devices will be provided so that we can properly allocate them for scrap, contractor confidence testing, etc.

Response: It is the contractor’s responsibility to submit a GFP request for enough GFP to cover a specific order.

Each GFP request will be reviewed to determine if the quantity requested is in line with standard production requirements for the quantity being ordered. An order of 4,000 deliverable units is not limited to the 4,264 GFP quantity listed in Section H.

6. Question: Reference TDP (Document 19nb107_TDP_20190314_M500), Data List: DL8568150, page 2 Request document WR-43, Revision A, Preparation of Quality Assurance Provisions (Including Classification of Characteristics) Response: A revised Technical Drawing Package has been uploaded to BetaSAM. Please refer to pages 44-62.

7. Question: Reference Solicitation N0010419RK107, page 9 of 89, Section D – Packaging, Marking, and Transportation. Is any Army Service required? If so, please provide document PLB0X010 (Army Service) Response: No. SPI PLBOX010 is null and void and this reference is removed from Section D. There is no revision being done to it. Packaging drawings 8863435 and 8863436 80 ea packaging as is - 80 each units in one bag.

8. Question: Reference specification MIL-D-85866. Request the following documents cited in the referenced Specification:

1) Drawing 1826685

2) Drawing 1826740

3) Procedure LD 480089

4) Procedure AD 1014 Response: A revised Technical Drawing Package has been uploaded to BetaSAM. Please refer to pages:

-Drawing 1826685---- page 194 -Drawing 1826740 ----- page 195 -Procedure LD 480089 ----- pages 229-241 -Procedure AD 1014 ----- pages 196 -228
