However, all responsibility rests with the Contractor to comply with all federal and state hazardous waste requirements and any information obtained from 5 CES/CEIEC does not remove responsibility from the Contractor for proper waste management.

1.10. Government QA Visits. The Contractor shall facilitate Government QA visits during all phases of Contractor installation, integration, verification and testing activities. Government QA visits are intended to assist the Contractor by providing timely Government observations on the quality of the contractor's installation/test efforts to help the Contractor resolve issues, mitigate risk, and complete a quality, compliant installation/integration/test effort necessary to ensure a successful Government acceptance test and system turnover.

MORDHORST, BRYON J TSgt USAF AFGSC 5 CONS/PKB This needs to be expanded to describe what function and performance the “eyes” are to do.

BRUGMAN, KRISTAL L CIV USAF AFGSC 5 LRS/LGRMS

Wording has been updated.

MORDHORST, BRYON J TSgt USAF AFGSC 5 CONS/PKB Is there a way to describe this in terms of performance without specifying that it must be an “extractor Chain finger system” it sounds like we are describing the exact product in the quote.

BRUGMAN, KRISTAL L CIV USAF AFGSC 5 LRS/LGRMS

“Maximum” has been added. Any larger and the units will not fit in the vault.

MORDHORST, BRYON J TSgt USAF AFGSC 5 CONS/PKB Are these the minimum or maximum? Sounds like we are describing a specific product.

BRUGMAN, KRISTAL L CIV USAF AFGSC 5 LRS/LGRMS

Max.

MORDHORST, BRYON J TSgt USAF AFGSC 5 CONS/PKB Is this the space available in the warehouse or the space that the units can take up?

MORDHORST, BRYON J TSgt USAF AFGSC 5 CONS/PKB Please apply this same question to the dimensions provided in the picture below.

BRUGMAN, KRISTAL L CIV USAF AFGSC 5 LRS/LGRMS

Space is for the units. The warehouse is roughly 2,205 sq ft. The units cannot be any larger then described or they will not fit.
