Sheet1

REFERENCE	QUESTION	ANSWER
PWS 2.3.3.1.2	Who is responsible to providing Lashing?	Lashing is provided by the vessel upon arrival. If additional lashing is required, the government will supply it. PWS Section 7.2 has been added to address Lashings.
PWS 2.3.3.1.4	Is the Contractor required to report pre-existing damages and/or damages caused by loading operations?	Yes, the contractor is required to report all damages including pre-existing damages and damages caused by loading operations.
PWS 2.3.3.1.5	Is there a Contractor requirement to use iCodes for written cargo tallies to identify the type and location of cargo loaded?	No the contractor is not required to use ICODES for written cargo tallies.
PWS 2.3.3.2.5	Is the Contractor required to report pre-existing damages and/or damages caused by discharge operations?	Yes, the contractor is required to report all damages including pre-existing damages and damages caused by discharging operations.
PWS 2.3.2.1.	Will the Government provide the Contractor with the type and location of cargo loaded to the vessel when the vessel is planned to discharge at Pearl Harbor? In what format will this be provided to the Contractor?	Yes, the stow plan will be provided from the government by deck and item type. The stow plan is a printout from ICODES in PDF format. PWS section 2.2 has been revised.
PWS 2.3.3.3.2	Does the Government use the same forms (TCMD, DD2890, etc.) and cargo labels (MSL) when loading a Government vessel as they do when loading a Commercial vessel?	Yes, the same forms are utilized.
PWS 5.3	Quote submissions are due on Friday, 23-Mar-2018, which is within ten (10) working days prior to the Base Year performance start date. HSI can identify management employees prior to award for DBIDs Cards, however, other individuals requiring base access (ILWU labor) cannot be completed prior to the award. Can the Government accommodate the application process with the Nimitz Pass and ID Office twice?	The combined synopsis/solicitation closing date has been extended to 04/13/2018. The government shall sponsor for base access after award and it is the Contractor's responsibility to obtain the DBIDS credentials. PWS section 5.3 has been revised.
N/A	Is the Base Period really expected to start on 03-Apr-2018?	The combined synopsis/solicitation closing date has been extended to 04/13/2018. The IDIQ Base Period is estimated to start 04/23/2018. However, services from the IDIQ are ordered via a funded task order and will be placed when services are needed. See PWS section 2.2.
PWS 5.4	In the event that ILWU labor cannot get a DBIDs Card, will the Government provide them with a day pass when a Task Order is issued?	Yes, in the event that DBIDS cannot be completed in time. PWS section 5.4 has been revised.
PWS 6.2	Will the Government provide cranes and Material Handling Equipment (MHE), trucks/chassis at some pier locations? If so, can you identify the circumstances?	PWS section 6.2 has been revised. The Contractor shall have the ability to provide material handling equipment (MHE) as well as trucks/chassis to support operations. Additionally, the Contractor in some instances may have to provide their own crane. The specific equipment to support services will be defined per task order.
PWS 2.3.3.2.1 & 2.3.3.1.1	Please define “place of rest” for cargo.	Place of rest for cargo is the pier or staging area during discharge operations. For loading operations place of rest is stow location on vessel.
NA	Can the Government provide historical work experience from load out and/or discharge operations that have taken place at Pearl Harbor or any of the port locations listed in PWS 11.2 during the prior year or two? How many Ro/Ro and how may Lo/Lo vessels were worked during this time? Can you provide more information regarding projected vessel frequency cargo volumes loaded or discharged/descriptions per call?	As defined in the Quote Submittal Spreadsheet 2960 MTONS per year are estimated in support of loading operations. 3155 MTONS per year are estimated in support of discharging operations. Further breakdown of RORO vs LOLO is identified in the Quote Submittal Spreadsheet. The frequency will be based on the government's need.
COMBINED SYNOPSIS/SOLICITATION	Does the 10-page limitation for quotes include the ELIN worksheets? If so, there is no room to indicate our capability to meet all specifications and requirements.	For the purpose of the 10-page limitation the Quote Submittal Spreadsheet will be counted as 1 page as it is a single spreadsheet with multiple tabs. Quoters are reminded to complete and return the Quote Submittal Spreadsheet, the certification contained on the Quote Submittal Spreadsheet Instructions, and FAR provision 52.212-3 Alt I. Per the combined synopsis/solicitation the FAR provision is excluded from the 10-page limitation.
QUOTE SUBMITTAL SPREADSHEET	Can you please define what is meant by “Skilled Labor/Specialist”?	As defined in the Quote Submittal Spreadsheet “Skilled Labor/Specialist” aligns with Forklift Operator, Crane Operator, Mechanic etc. This category is meant to capture categories that are separate and distinct from the port gang or manager.
N/A	How many workers you will need for these Longshoring Services?	It is the quoters responsibility to determine required staffing to support the requested services based on the requirements outlined in the PWS, the commodity types, and the estimated quantity of commodity to be loaded and discharged.
N/A	Because of the way our workers are compensated for hours worked we would have to make assumptions based on actual work times and days. All work is to be performed on a 24-hour base, or 2 twelve hour shifts - This will result in us paying our workers Penalty time which is 1 1/2 times more than our overtime rate for the two hours past the ten hours of work scheduled. Night shift and weekends/ Holidays would be all at 1 1/2 times more than the overtime rate for the entire shift.	A confirmation of ratesuote issued for a task order will define the period of performance and the applicable shifts. The Quote Submittal Sheet has been revised to reflect 10 hour shifts and 12 hour shifts as both may be applicable. PWS Section 10 has also been revised - please reference sections 10.2-10.5. Quoters should account for overtime rates etc. as they devise their pricing. POTENTIALLY ADD ANOTHER COLUMN FOR A HOLIDAY/WEEKEND DAY SHIFT
N/A	Commodity rates for loose cargo by (MT) - We would be hard pressed to try to determine actual work production. We don't have control over the amount we would actually be handling. There are no minimums stated for each task call out. We would not know where such cargo would be staged prior to operations. We have no idea of stowage plans. We have no projections as to how cargo will be drayed from POR.	The task order will define the quantities per commodity type. Section 2.2 of the PWS has been revised to add that a stow plan will be provided to the contractor to quote before issuance of a task order. Additionally, Section 2.3.2 includes the contractor attending operation planning meetings. The stow plan will be provided from the government by deck and item type. The stow plan is a printout from ICODES in PDF format. Place of rest for cargo is the pier or staging area during discharge operations. For loading operations place of rest is stow location on vessel.
N/A	Under Normal conditions when working with other Military partners - We are provided the scope of work, the location where actual work is taking place and who will be coordinating the Task Order. We would be asked to provide our best projected estimate to handle the defined Task Order, if the number works out with our partners command we are issued a standing Task Order Number. The key is having a clear understanding of what services will be required for each Task Order, then and only then can we make cost projections based on actual time cost.	The general overall scope of work is captured in the PWS for this single award IDIQ type requirement. All potential work locations are identified in the PWS. Specific work location, period of performance, quantities, contractor pre-negotiated commodity rates, and defined equipment will be defined in the firm fixed priced task order order. A COR will be appointed to provide technical oversight and will be the point of contact.
