SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION SF 30 - BLOCK 14 CONTINUATION PAGE

The following have been added by full text:

AMENDMENT 0004

The purpose of Amendment 0004 is to:

1. Answer the following requests for information submitted in response to N62473‐24‐R‐3204.

a. Question: We note the differentiation between Native American Monitoring ELINs for Construction and Native American Monitoring ELINs for Survey, did or would the Navy consider instead issuing separate ELINs for the “Survey-Only” and Recordation tasks to include survey with Native American Monitors and survey without Native American Monitors? The larger cost in adding Native American monitors to surveys are associated with changes to the expected survey pace and therefore accounting for this using a daily or weekly rate is more difficult.

Answer: The Navy is not considering the issuing separate ELINs for the “Survey-Only” and Recordation tasks to include survey with Native American Monitors and survey without Native American Monitors.

There is now an ELIN for Daily / Weekly Native American Survey Monitoring. The Navy intends this ELIN to cover Native American monitoring requirements on those surveys that require a Native American monitoring. Additionally, for a survey that may require Native American monitors, the Navy cannot predict how many monitors will be required from any number of Tribes that have a reason to participate in the survey. The Navy anticipates that based on the plausible variability in the number of monitors required for a proposed survey, combined with the number of individual tribes represented by those monitors, that ELINs for “Survey-Only” and Recordation tasks to include survey with Native American Monitors cannot be accurately or sustainably costed. The purpose of Daily / Weekly Native American Survey Monitoring is to allow the contractor the opportunity to account for cost and pace variables in the use of Native Americans during survey and cost that effort discretely, and for the Navy to adjust the level of effort and services procured relative to the specific requirements of any given survey.

b. Question: Is it a requirement for award to have, on file, at each establishment, affirmative action programs required by the rules and regulations of the Secretary of Labor? This is a question from Form J2.

Answer: It is not required to already have affirmative action programs in place in order to be eligible for award. However, Offerors must make a representation in Attachment J-2 Provision 52.222-25 Affirmative Action Compliance (APR 1984). In addition, during the execution of the contract, Contractors must abide by FAR 52.222-26 Equal Opportunity (SEP 2016), which is included in this contract.

c. Question: Could the Government confirm that the Subcontractor Letter of Commitment and Proposed Subcontracting Agreement should be included in Vol II: Tab C/Factor 3 Corporate Experience and that these documents should be submitted after the Project Data Sheets?

Answer: Yes, if Subcontractor Letter of Commitment and Proposed Subcontracting Agreements are applicable, they should be included in Vol II: Tab C/Factor 3 Corporate Experience after the Project Data Sheets. Section L has been updated to reflect this change.

d. Question: Although this submittal is electronic, submittal volumes are divided into separate tabs. Would the inclusion of digital “tab dividers” count against specified page totals for a given section?

Answer: No. The inclusion of digital “tab dividers” will not count against the page totals.

e. Question: Pg 39: Tab C: 1) states “Offerors shall submit the Price Proposal… in electronic spreadsheet format (Microsoft Excel) and PDF file displaying each proposed price.” However, Pg 36: Section L 1.a states “Volume 1 shall be submitted in Microsoft Word and Excel spreadsheet software formats”. Given that most of Volume 1 is comprised of PDF files (e.g., SF 33, Section B Services, ELINS PDF, and Financial Questionnaire) would the Government accept a searchable PDF submittal of Volume I to allow for sequential numbering of all volume requirements? It is understood a separate Microsoft Excel version of the ELINS would still need to be submitted.

Answer: Yes, Offerors may submit a searchable PDF for Volume I. However, the J-1 Pricing Spreadsheet must still be submitted in a separate Microsoft Excel version. Section L has been updated to reflect this change.

2. Update Section L. Changes are shown in red.

The following have been deleted:
