Questions & Answers– N6471025Q4502 AMD 1
1. What is the time frame you are looking to get the compass swing completed.
Answer: Per the original solicitation, the work must be completed within 30 days from contract award. However, based on further review of the requirement, we believe we can extend the period of performance for the work to be completed within 45 days from contract award. Due to the criticality of the compasses, we cannot extend the period of performance beyond this date.
