Amendment 1 31 July 2018

# QUESTION TYPE QUESTION ANSWER

Agenda

Which LRAF, HQ or Enterprise is the focus of the Industry Days? Which of the Opportunities are Small business Set Asides? Recommend a draft agenda and the opportunities that will be the focus during the day. May reduce the number of participants. If these opportunities are going to be released under Seaport-e or Seaport-NxG recommend limit it to current Seaport-e Performing Primes or performing SB subcontractors to limit the attendees.

The primary focus of NAVSEA's Small Business Industry Day is to facilitate an enhanced understanding of NAVSEA headquarters programs’ requirements as contracted by the

NAVSEA headquarters Contracts Directorate (SEA 02). The goal is to help small businesses prepare to be business partners in fulfilling these requirements, as prime or subcontractors.

The NAVSEA headquarters’ Long Range Acquisition Forecast (LRAF HQ) is posted on the

NAVSEA.navy.mil website and comprised of individual planned procurements. The

NAVSEA HQ LRAF will be updated prior to the SBID event. Although this is the focus of the industry day, the NAVSEA Enterprise LRAF, inclusive of NAVSEA Warfare Centers’ planned procurements, is also posted on the NAVSEA.navy.mil website and will be updated at the same time.

These are long range forecasts and the decision of what will be set aside for small businesses has yet to be determined.

To view the current NAVSEA HQ LRAF at http://www.navsea.navy.mil/, hover your mouse over the "Business Partnerships" tab and select "LRAF-HQ." To view the corresponding

NAVSEA HQ deputy program managers' contact information select "Deputy Program

Manager List."

To view the current NAVSEA Enterprise (HQ and Warfare Centers) LRAF at http://www.navsea.navy.mil/, hover your mouse over the "Business Partnerships" tab and select "LRAF-Enterprise." To view the warfare centers' corresponding small business representatives’ contact information select "Warfare Centers Small Business Contacts.”

The NAVSEA HQ SBID event will focus on requirements being contracted by the NAVSEA

HQ Contracts Directorate (SEA 02), all of which will not be procured in SeaPort. Warfare

Center procurements under the NAVSEA Enterprise LRAF may include requirements procured via SeaPort. NAVSEA has no desire to limit the number of attendees at the SBID event.

Agenda Will there by an agenda published? I would like to see what will be presented before booking flights and hotels.

An Agenda will be posted as an amendment to the announcements on FBO and SeaPort.

Agenda Where can I locate the agenda for the 2018 Small Business Industry Day (SBID) event?

Eligibility Attendance I have a quick question before we register. We are an IT small business with specialization in big data, analytics, machine learning and AI. Does the NAICS code 541715 and/or 541330 cover these areas and will that be discussed at the industry day?

Small Businesses who support any NAICS code are encouraged to attend. The announcements were made under the NAICS codes that are predominantly used at

NAVSEA.

Eligibility Attendance Please clarify my understanding that if a company's services are not covered by the NAICS codes on the chart in the FedBizOpps announcement, we should not attend the Industry Day. My company provides leadership development training under NAICS code 611430.

Small Businesses who support any NAICS code are encouraged to attend. The announcements were made under the NAICS codes that are predominantly used at

NAVSEA.

We have not received any other notices from interested parties that they are having problems with access. It may be a glitch with the system being used and not FBO.

Registration

Since the event sold out in less than 24 hours, would the government be willing to limit attendance to one person per company instead of two and thus allow representation from twice the number of companies than will currently be allowed to attend?

Unfortunately, it is too late to change the registration rules. This will be taken into consideration for the next SBID.

Registration As soon as I received your e-mail I tried to register but registration was already closed. Was this an error on the site or spaces are just that limited.

There were a limited number of seats available. It is likely you attempted to register after all the seats were filled. There is also a waitlist and that has a limited number of seats as well. Unfortunately, we have limited space to hold the event and cannot accommodate everyone.

NAVSEA-SBID.fct@navy.mil and not to the poster of the notice.
