8. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

The government has market research estimates from multiple caterers authorized by NEX to cater food on the NSA Mechanicsburg base, as well as multiple caricaturist capable of providing entertainment and activities; however, none of them are registered on the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) website. Therefore, a prime contractor “event planner” that’s registered on SAM.gov is required to provide all the services themselves or coordinate with subcontractors to provide the requested services.

The government is amenable to the prime contractor choosing other subcontractors if feasible but would prefer consideration of current market research estimates on file, before finalizing quote.
