21. Document: Attachment 1: Statement of Work

Delivery Date: on or before 1 July 2027

Could you clarify how early vehicles may be delivered?

Due to model changes or production schedules, some models may need to be delivered much earlier than July 2027.

For example, would delivery in March 2027 be acceptable

ANSWER: Please see question# 15 in this Notice 2.

22. Document: Attachment 1: Statement of Work

>> LINE ITEM 0003, PASSENGER VAN

>> MINIMUM DIMENSIONS (Metric).

>> ""Wheel Base 4,560mm"" & ""Overall Length 1,690mm""

Should we understand that the actual minimum requirements are:

- Wheel Base: 1,690 mm

- Overall Length: 4,560 mm

ANSWER: Please see question# 5 in Notice 1.

23. Document: Attachment 1: Statement of Work

>> LINE ITEM 0002, SPORTS UTILITY VEHICLE (SUV)

>> Two (2) SUVs shall be delivered to NCIS Misawa, Japan.

>> ""Tires and Wheels: Manufacturer’s standard steel belted radial tires with full covered wheel caps.""

Since Misawa experiences significant snowfall and icy road conditions during winter, would you please confirm whether studless winter tires are required?

Studless winter tires are not required as CLIN 0002, paragraph (19) requires provision of tire chains.

If contract vendor desires to provide studless winter tires in lieu of providing tire chains for the Misawa location, that would be allowable by this agency.

24. Document: Attachment 1: Statement of Work

>> LINE ITEM 0002, SPORTS UTILITY VEHICLE (SUV)

>> ""gasoline or hybrid engine drive""

>> ""Engine Displacement: 1,995 cc rated or more, gasoline driven.""

When offering a hybrid vehicle, please accept 1,495cc.

Generally, the driving performance of a hybrid vehicle is provided by the combination of a gasoline engine and an electric motor.

Therefore, engine displacement alone does not fully represent the vehicle's overall driving performance.

Hybrid is changed to a minimum displacement of 1.4 liter or 1,400 cc.

25. Document: Attachment 1: Statement of Work

>> LINE ITEM 0004, TRUCK VAN PANEL

>> "5 door"

>> "Overall Length 5,380"

>> "Overall Width 1,880"

Please accept "Overall Length 5,230mm".

Please accept either A or B:

A: [5 door] and [Overall Width 1,695mm]

B: [4 door] and [Overall Width 1,880mm]

Since the Toyota HiAce is the only model that satisfies all the requirements, we initially intended to offer the HiAce.

However, the availability and ordering schedule of the HiAce are uncertain, which is also related to our Question No. 21.

Regarding the Nissan Caravan, even its longest model has an overall length of only 5,230 mm.

In addition, the 5 door model has an overall width of 1,695 mm, while the model with an overall width of 1,880 mm is available only with 4 doors.

We would appreciate it if you could consider our request so that the Nissan Caravan can also become eligible for this solicitation.

Overall length of 5,230mm is acceptable, see question# 13 in Notice 1.

Overall minimum width of 1,695mm is acceptable.

26. In reference to the 37 sedans, if it is not possible to procure all of the same model/make, is it ok to have similar vehicles of same spec different model/make?

A mixture of different make/models within each Line Item is acceptable. Please see question# 16 in

Notice 1.

27. Is there a minimum requirement for year/maximum mileage on the vehicles as long as they are in good working order?

Provided vehicles shall be new upon delivery, latest model available, as per paragraph 5 of the SOW.
