SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION SF 30 - BLOCK 14 CONTINUATION PAGE

The following have been added by full text:

AMENDMENT 0002

Amendment notes: Paragraph 4.4.2.2.2. was the only part changed in Section L. The strikethough font details the deletion of items (c) through (f)

Amendment 0002 is issued to:

1) Revise the Key Personnel listed in Section L para. 4.4.2.2.2.

2) Address questions and answers.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Questions 1-9 (See Amendment 0001)

10. Amendment 1, Section L, 4.4.2.2.3, page 34 states “key personnel labor category resumes shall be provided for all locations.”

Please clarify, is it the government’s intention for the contractor to provide only one resume for each key labor category in each performance location?

For example:

One electrician resume for each of the 6 locations for a total of 6 electrician resumes One plumber resume for the each of the 4 locations that have plumbers for a total of 4 plumber resumes.

Using this approach yields a total to 31 resumes for proposal submission.

Answer: Amendment 0002 revises Section L, 4.4.2.2.2. Yes, Key personnel labor category resumes shall be provided for all locations.

11. Amendment 1, SF-30, Block 11 indicates that the solicitation is extended. While the new date for proposal submissions is shown in NECO as June 13, 2019 (Quote to be Received By: Thu, Jun 13, 2019/Pacific Time/01:00 PM), no date for the extension is included in the amendment’s summary of changes or in Section L.

Would the government please confirm the new proposal due date and time?

Answer: The revised date is shown on Page 4, SECTION A of Amendment 0001. The closing date is June 13, 2019; 1:00 P.M. P.S.T.

Any requests for an extension to the closing date that is denied by the government, will be responded to via email.
