QUESTION #7: Amendment 0002, Q&A #47: The labor category Optical Alignment Services requires an estimated 667 man-hours over a five-year period. WRT outsourcing, the Offeror has been in discussion with a couple of vendors: first, they do not have an approved accounting system which is required to do CPFF work and 2nd, only do work through FFP vehicles. Recommend that the Government consider that the Offeror can use FFP vendor(s) for this alignment work that can be bid as an ODC during TI pricing. Please advise if this is satisfactory or provide an alternate avenue to use FFP for this alignment support – maximum of two projects per year iaw SOW 6.15.

This is a CPFF contract not a FFP contract. The alternitives for accounting systems are listed in the solicitation.
