QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS SBAHQ-14-R-0019 as of 23 August 2014

IDIQ/General

What is the need for Labor Hour rates for proposed personnel if it is Firm Fixed Price, FFP All CLIN’s

PLEASE SEE THE DEFINITION OF AN IDIQ CONTRACT ON PAGE 10 OF THE RFP AND

CORRESPONDING FAR EXPLAINANTION. THE IDIQ BASE CONTRACT IS THE “ORDERING

DOCUMENT” THAT WILL CONTAIN THE FIRM FIXED PRICES INCORPORATED AFTER

AWARD. THE RATES IN THE BASE IDIQ ARE USED WHEN TASK ORDER REQUESTS ARE

ISSUED BY THE GOVERNMENT TO DETERMINE THE PRICING OF EACH INDIVIDUAL TASK

ORDER. THE BASE IDIQ CONTRACT ITSELF IS NOT FUNDED. ALL FUNDING IS APPLIED TO

EACH INDIVIDUAL TASK ORDER WHEN THE GOVERNMENT IDENTIFIES A BONA FIDE

NEED FOR A REQUIREMENT WITHIN SCOPE OF THE IDIQ.

As an IDIQ was it the intent to establish fair and reasonable pricing from the Labor CLIN item Quotes for evaluation purposes only? Or is it to establish a contract ceiling? Or will the Labor CLIN Quotes -001,2,3 quotes be the Firm Fixed Price for each year?

AS STATED IN SECTION L & M “IMPORTANT NOTES” AWARD FOR THE BASE WILL BE

BASED ON EVALUATION OF CONTRACTOR RESPONSE TO TASK ORDER 001. HOWEVER, IN

ADDITION TO TASK ORDER 001 RESPONSES, CONTRACTORS SHOULD PROPOSE ANY

ADDITIONAL LABOR CATEGORIES THEY DEEM NECESSARY TO FULLFIL REQUIREMENTS

OF THE ENITRE IDIQ. ADDITIONAL TASK ORDERS MAY OR MAY NOT BE ISSUED AT A

LATER DATE THAT MAY INCLUDE REQUIREMENTS DIFFERENT FROM TASK ORDER 001,

BUT STILL BE WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THE IDIQ.

Will Task Order 1 be awarded as proposed upon award?

TASK ORDER 001 WILL BE AWARD IN CONJUCTION WITH THE BASE IDIQ

Regarding Section 3, d. Annual Communications and Outreach Plan Evaluation, Implementation, and Assessment (page 16): Is this inclusive of base year (in accordance with task 3.4 of Task Order 001) as well as for option periods? Please confirm this is for Base and Option Years.

THE PLAN WILL BE DEVELOPED AS PART OF TASK ORDER 001 AND MAY NEED TO BE

CONTINUOUSLY UPDATED THROUGHOUT THE LIFE OF THE IDIQ. UPDATES TO THE PLAN

WILL BE ISSUED AT THE TASK ORDER LEVEL

Does Task Order 1 include all the work of task 1?

THE CONTRACTOR MUST MAKE THE DETERMINATION AS TO WHAT SECTIONS OF THE

PWS TASK ORDER 001 APPLIES.

In RFP CLINS ending in -001 Page 9 of 67 says that CLIN -001 includes Other Direct Expenses, yet there is a CLIN for ODE’s. How can the offeror know what ODE’s – Travel Materials, Telephone/Communications – for that case what the cost of the facility will be for the annual meeting without understanding the details (Number of Attendees, use of Audio Visual and the Facility that governs A/V and other information. Will the government consider these costs should be included under the ODE CLIN 003.

AS STATED IN CLIN 003 DEFINITION, THIS CLIN MAY, OR MAY NOT, BE USED. USE OF

THIS CLIN WILL BE MADE BY THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD THE NEED ARISE AND THE

CONTRACTOR SHALL BE NOTIFIED THAT THIS SPECIFIC CLIN IS APPLICABLE.

THE ANSWER TO THE SECOND PART OF THE QUESTION IS THE CONTRACTOR CANNOT

KNOW UNLESS THE GOVERNMENT ISSUES A TASK ORDER REQUEST/RFP FOR WORK.

TASK ORDER 001 ATTACHED TO THIS SOLICITATION IS THE ONLY GOVERNMENT

REQUESTED WORK THAT WILL BE ISSUED AGAINST THE IDIQ.

The IDIQ states that "all printing of materials will be ordered through mandated sources such as the Government printing Office (GPO)," and that "the contractor shall create digitized print-ready files in accordance with OVBD detailed specifications for submission to mandated printing sources such as the Government Printing Office (GPO)." Should we factor printing costs into our proposal, or will SBA be covering print costs through its relationship with GPO?

PRINTING WILL BE CHARGEABLE UNDER CLIN002 AND WILL BE SUBJECT TO THE NOT-

TO-EXCEED PRICE LISTED.

Page 1 of the solicitation indicates that the size standard is $14M. However, page 52, paragraph 52.212-1 indicates that the size standard is 500 employees. Please clarify the size standard.

THE “500 EMPLOYEES” LISTED 52.212-1 REFERENCES THE SBA NON-MANUFACTURER

RULE. AS STATED IN THIS PROVISION, THE CORRECT SIZE STANDARD IS LISTED IN

BLOCK 10 OF THE SF1449. IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE HOWEVER IT IS THE

RESPONSIBILITY OF EACH INDIVDUAL CONTRACTOR FOR ENSURING THEY MEET THE

SIZE STANDARDS FOR THE APPLICABLE NAICS CODE AS INSTRUCTED IN PROVISION

52.212-3.

Are the estimated CLIN values for 0002-0004 in the SF1449 for the Base Year IDIQ, Total 5-year IDIQ, or specific to Task Order 0001? Is there an estimate for CLIN 0001?

Please clarify the price proposal submission. Should attachment 3 be submitted in Excel format? And then a separate worksheet with Task order pricing?

THE NOT-TO-EXCEED VALUES ARE FOR THE BASE IDIQ AND WILL APPLY WHEN TASK

ORDERS ARE ISSUED. CLIN001 SHALL CONTAIN LABOR CATEGORIES/RATES AS

PROPOSED BY THE CONTRACTOR AND ESTIMATES DO NOT APPLY IN THIS CASE. EXCEL

FORMAT IS PREFERRED FOR PRICINGAND THERE SHOULD BE SEPARATE SUBMISSIONS

FOR BASE IDIQ AND TASK ORDER 001. AS STATED IN SECTIONS L&M, AWARD WILL BE

MADE BASED ON TASK ORDER 001 EVALUATIONS.

Page 31 states that the contractor shall designate a management official responsible for fulfilling the responsibilities of a system security officer who is knowledgeable in automated data process technology and computer security methodology. Please clarify this requirement.

CONCERNING TRAVEL COSTS.

NO, THIS IS DUE TO END OF YEAR TIME CONSTRAINTS AND THE EFFORT INVLOVED TO

MAKE AWARD DETERMINATION AFTER THE SOLICITATION CLOSES.

Page 57. Section L.1 - The past performance section states that only a single set of up to 5 PP references shall be submitted. If a Prime is using a subcontractor, does the subcontractor past performance get included in that single set as part of the up to 5 past performances or is the subcontractor set of past performances separate and not included in those 5?

YES, DUE TO THE PAPERWORK REDUCTION ACT, THE GOVERNMENT IS ONLY

AUTHORIZED TO REQUEST SO MANY SUBMITTALS FROM THE PUBLIC. HOWEVER, IN

PAST PERFORMANCE INFORMATION.

COMPLETED IT. WE ARE REQUESTING A NOT-TO-EXCEED MAXIMUM OF UP TO 5 PPQ’S

PER PROPOSAL.

Section L, Volume II, page 56, the solicitation states the contractor should “…describe its approach to operate and maintain exiting SBA OVBD B2B Advertising Marketing IT environments, systems websites, and appellations alone with identifying emerging digital and rich media technologies…” The IDIQ Tasks do not discuss updating websites, working within SBA’s IT environment, or updating applications. Can the government please clarify what is meant by this sentence? Is the contractor to update SBA websites and work directly within SBA IT environments? If so, can you please provide information on the types and numbers of websites, the requirements for working with the IT environment, and provide more information on what applications require updating?

CONTRACTORS WILL NOT BE UPDATING WEBSITES. CONTRACTORS MAY BE REQUIRED
