Request for Information.docx

This is a Request for Information (RFI) form template utilized by the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs (DMVA). The form serves as a standardized document for soliciting clarifications, technical information, or project details during the contract execution phase. The RFI includes fields for identifying the contract number, project title, location, priority level, and specific information requirements. Priority responses are categorized as either 48-hour expedited requests or routine 10-day responses. The form indicates whether a change order may be required based on the response and designates distribution to the DMVA Project Manager, DMVA Facilities, Capital and Maintenance Management (FCMM), and the DMVA Contracting Officer. The template emphasizes that responses should be provided without delay and includes provisions for detailed explanations when circumstances warrant additional documentation.

The RFI form is designed to facilitate communication between the government entity and professional contractors during contract performance. The document does not establish pricing terms, set-asides, or funding requirements, as it functions as an information-gathering tool rather than a procurement instrument. The form's revision date of October 2016 indicates it is an established procedural document within DMVA's contracting framework. Distribution lists include relevant DMVA personnel and contractors involved in project execution, ensuring that responses reach all necessary stakeholders. The template's flexibility allows for customization based on specific project needs and circumstances.
