7. QUESTION:

Do the certifications or courses also need to meet their state Professional and Occupational

Regulations?

RESPONSE:

See Amendment 0005, revised Specification, Item 3.0., Vendor Qualifications for further details.

8. QUESTION:

I anticipated the 204 staff will be spread across the different states listed above. Is there a set figure of how many students per state?

The specification, Item 6.0., Deliverables states, “Train up to 240 students per year for

3 years.”

9. QUESTION:

I also saw the instructors need to travel to multiple locations. In the Statement of Work 4.0 specifies travel is required to provide training at NAVFAC MIDLANT Public Works

Department.

How many training sites will need to be accessed in each state?

Training sites will be within the PWD at:

PWD Norfolk o Norfolk, VA

Other locations will be agreed upon between the vendor and NAVFAC

10. QUESTION:

Besides the module training costs, are other expenses, for example:

per diem, mileage, or instructor lodging allowed to be included in the RFQ?

Your proposal should be inclusive of all associated costs.

11. QUESTION:

As of October 1 2024, there are already 204 students/staff anticipating they will beginning training on that date? If so how many are taking each module listed under the Statement of

Work 6.0? Or are all 204 expected to do all the modules and start as novices or with an entry level course?

It is up to 240 per year, less employees may train. The classes are not intended to be in any order but to be selected based on need. Students will attend more than once.

12. QUESTION:

When should registration/enrollment in the courses start?

See Amendment 0005, revised Specification, Item 4.0., Task, Sections 4.5 and 4.6 for further details.

13. QUESTION:

When would you expect it to be completed?

There is no completion date. This is not program from start to finish. It will allow NAVFAC to fulfill gaps in knowledge and enhance knowledge, skills and abilities (KSA).

14. QUESTION:

I have another question regarding the text books selected for the course. They are 2017 and

2018 years of publications. Is there a reason why the latest editions of those texts cannot be used?

They can be used if that edition is Virginia DPOR approved.

15. QUESTION:

If the textbook are to be ordered and delivered to the different training sites, would they be placed to your attention for delivery?
