Attachment 7 - Questions and Answers 1

1. In Section B (Page 2), CLIN 0002 does not specify estimated amount for Other Direct Costs as stated on Page 71 Answer: This amount was inadvertently removed during review, it is added back now.

2. On page 61 of the RFP, it states “The Proposal MUST include the following information in Volume V Section 1.2 to be eligible for award. Can you clarify what Volume V Section 1.2 is Answer: Corrected to state “Volume V” only, and to remove the reference to section 1.2.

3. Attachment 4 (Cost Spreadsheet): In cases where the Subcontractors will not provide us with their detailed rate build up (i.e. M&H, G&A, etc) as that is considered proprietary information, should we request the subcontractors submit the rate buildup template directly to the Government or is their DCAA contact information sufficient? If they are required to submit the template directly to the Government, please explain the process for submission.

Answer: Information shall be sent directly to the CS from the subcontractor. Submission process is the same as for the Prime, the sub can request a DoDsafe drop off request. The following language was updated in the RFP.

“Proposals in response to this solicitation will ONLY be accepted via electronic transmission in DoD SAFE. Offerors, and subcontractors as necessary, shall contact the Contract Specialist 2-3 business days prior to the day it intends to submit a proposal in order to obtain a DoD SAFE drop-off request. Subcontractors shall follow the same procedure if they need to submit proprietary rate information.”
