Answer: The Honorarium will be $200 per person. This cost should be included in Other Direct Costs.
2. We are already a small business. Are we still required to complete the “HHS Subcontracting plan Template”?
Answer: Small businesses are exempt from having to provide Small Business Subcontracting Plans under the FAR. You do not need to provide the plan, but must show that you meet the definition of a small business for the NAICS code provided in the RFP.
3. in reviewing the HHS Subcontracting plan Template that the expectations set forth in the draft plan require subcontracting in certain amounts, which contradicts the RFP on page 77, section 13 which indicates subcontractors are optional. Can you please provide additional clarification regarding whether subcontractors are required?
Answer: Subcontracts are not required. However, any large business that is providing an offer must fill out the form with explanation if goals are not able to be set for this effort.
4. Is the section titled Qualifications of the Offeror on page 76 of the RFP considered the Past
Performance section required in the technical volume submission? Or is the past performance section and qualifications of the offeror section two distinct sections which shall be included in the technical volume?
Answer: The Past Performance section is provided in the Technical Proposal. The Qualifications of the Offeror on page 76 of the RFP is required in the Business Proposal. The information in each may be similar, but must be provided in each space.
