Subject: Afghanistan Life Support Services (ALiSS) solicitation – SAQMMA14R0042

To Whom It May Concern:

The United States Department of State (DOS) is pleased to release the Afghanistan Life Support Services (ALiSS) solicitation. The Government has consolidated task orders, and expanded upon a number of requirements.

This solicitation supersedes and takes precedence over all previous information provided under this solicitation number or title.

Two items of note:

1. The Government intends on providing housing for contractor AN and TCN employees. However, as the Government is unable to guarantee housing throughout the life of the contract, housing requirements remain in the contract. No pricing is required for the housing CLIN (found in TO- 001), and requirements have been altered to show in a “IF the Contractor is ever required to provide housing, THEN the following requirements are applicable,” manner.

2. The task order for fire protection services (TO-003) has been purposely omitted from the initial solicitation package. The Government is in the process of finalizing the requirements.

Please review the solicitation carefully, and provide questions and/or clarifications by the Section L.13 stated date and time.

Sincerely, /signed/ Don Schlienz Contracting Officer
