Question Response Mod No.

1 Could you please confirm whether there is a current incumbent contractor performing the services outlined in this solicitation? If so, we would appreciate it if you could share the contractor’s name and contract number, if available.

(General) No contractor is currently performing the services outlined in this synopsis.

2 In reviewing the solicitation provided and supporting documents for this IDIQ, it seems very similar in scope to solicitation N6247825R5044 posted on 10/7. We wanted to confirm this solicitation is a different contract?

(General) Yes, this is a different contract.

3 It appears that a great deal of the work required for this contract would be engineering-related. Would the government consider changing the NAICS Code for this project to 541330 to reflect who will be doing the work under this contract?

(General) The work is primarily architectural and the Government would like the Prime to provide architectural services. Therefore, the Government does not anticipate changing the NAICS Code.

4 I am looking to find out if there is an incumbent contractor for this effort? If there is, can you please provide the contract number. I would like to submit a FOIA request for a copy of the previous contract and the FOIA office will need that number to process my request.

(General) See Response to Question No. 1.

5 Does [FIRM] qualify to compete for this opportunity based on our existing Small Business registration under NAICS 541310?

(General) “Small Business” means a concern, including its affiliates, that is independently owned and operated, not dominant in the field of operation in which it is building on Government contracts, and qualified as a small business under the criteria in 13 CFR part 121 and size standards in this solicitation.

To be eligible, a firm must be identified as a Small Business under the NAICS Code for this procurement: 541310, Architectural Services. Firms can certify their size status for their NAICS codes in SAM.gov.

Businesses registered in SAM.gov must update their registration in order to have their small business status updated based on the new size standards effective October 1, 2022 (NAICS 2022).

The candidate needs to submit an SF330 and the Government would review it then for qualifications. The Government does not preview a firm’s work ahead of time. It’s up to the candidate to decide if they will compete for this opportunity or not.

Please note that the announcement states: “For eligibility requirements as a Small Business Joint Venture, please go to:

https://www.sba.gov/. Failure to include the joint venture agreement may result in the firm’s elimination from further evaluation.”

6 Are there any additional business certifications or eligibility requirements we should meet to be considered responsive?

7 Could you please confirm the preferred method for submitting our SF 330 package (e.g. file naming, size limitations, and confirmation of receipt)?

(SF330 Submission Requirements, page 17 of 18) Minimum requirements for submission procedures are already in the synopsis.

The SF330 must be in Adobe PDF format, and the file size must not exceed 8GB.

8 [FIRM] would like to request for an extension from the original December 9th due date?

(SF330 Submission Requirements, page 17 of 18) Firms responding to this announcement by Tuesday, 30 December 2025 at 2:00 PM Hawaii Standard Time (HST) will be considered.

The synopsis has been revised. See Synopsis Modification No. 2 dated 4 December 2025.

9 If possible, can the requirement for a Telecommunications Engineer be removed and replaced with a licensed Electrical Engineer? If possible, is it OK for him/her to be just a Registered Communication Distribution Designed (RCDD)?

(Criterion 2, page 8 of 18) The Telecommunications Engineer must be both a licensed Electrical Engineer and a Registered Communication Distribution Designer (RCDD).

10 Are two Fire Protection Engineers needed or was the second one listed by mistake?

(Criterion 2, Submission Requirements, page 10 of 18) One (1) Fire Protection Engineer is needed.

The synopsis has been revised. See Synopsis Modification No. 2 dated 4 December 2025.

11 Criterion 2 mentions the requirement of “Project Manager/Project Architects (2).” Does this mean that we can submit either two projects managers or two project architects? If we then submit two project managers, is it possible for them to have AE experience instead of a license?

(Criterion 2, page 10 of 18) All key personnel must be licensed in their specific discipline. The “Project Manager/Project Architect” is an Architectural Project Manager/Project Architect, therefore, a license is required.

12 What license is the cost estimator expected to have? (General) Professional certifications for cost professionals such as CCP, CPE, or similar.

13 Is it okay if the Telecommunications Engineer is a RCDD, and not a licensed Electrical Engineer?

(Criterion 2, page 8 of 18) See Response to Question No. 9.
