About this file
This file is a Questions and Answers document for the FY27 East & West Coast Site Seating Sources Sought Notice, dated November 10, 2026, addressing vendor inquiries regarding a requirement to purchase 70 office chairs for eight sites with a delivery date of February 2, 2027.
Key clarifications and updates provided include: the procurement will be from approved vendors (not specifically restricted to GSA vendors), the Federal Acquisition Regulation Buy American Act will apply with a clause to be added to the final RFQ, and FOB Destination terms will apply, meaning vendors must include assembly, installation, and all shipping costs in their estimates. The government emphasized that this is a Sources Sought Notice requesting Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) estimates only, not binding quotes, and that prospective primes may respond regardless of whether they hold their own GSA Schedule. The U.S. Government committed to updating the Statement of Work Revision 1 and CLIN Structure Revision to reflect these clarifications regarding vendor eligibility, FOB terms, and scope requirements for delivery and installation services. No specific set-aside designation was identified in the questions and answers.

Q&A
| FY27 East & West Coast Sites Seating Sources Sought Notice | As of 10 Nov 2026 | ||
| Questions & Answers (Q&A) | |||
| No | Question | USG's Answer | Action(s) |
| 01 | The SOW states Purchase 70 office chairs from approved GSA Vendor. Please clarify if this is being purchased on GSA or is an independent purchase set aside for Small Business concerns. | We realized the SOW said from an approved GSA vendor. Last year, we competed on GSA as SB set aside, and none of the quotes met the requirements. The SOW should read "from approved vendors." | The USG will update the SOW with Rev 1 to remove the word GSA. |
| 02 | Will FAR Buy American Act apply to this intended purchase? | Yes, it will. | The clause will be added to the actual RFQ. |
| 03 | Please confirm the FOB. | FOB Destination | The USG will update the SOW with Rev 1 and CLIN Structure Rev to add FOB Destination. |
| 04 | May we respond as a prospective prime if we source the chairs through an approved GSA vendor? For any resulting solicitation, does the Navy anticipate requiring the prime to hold its own GSA Schedule? | See answer to Question 1 | The USG will update the SOW with Rev 1 to remove the word GSA. |
| 05 | The CLINs list ship-to locations, and the scope calls for the chairs to be ready for use. Should our estimate include delivery to the listed rooms, assembly, and packaging removal? If so, which post-award site access and submittal requirements apply to that work? | FOB Destination, so the vendor should include in the ROM all assembly, installation, and shipping costs, if any. For this SSN, we only ask for a ROM, so do NOT submit a quote. Once the RFQ is released | The USG will update the SOW with Rev 1 and CLIN Structure Rev to add FOB Destination. |
