AMENDMENT 0001

Amendment 0001 is being issued for the following reasons:

A. To accurately reflect the table found under B19.02 paragraph (k), B19.02 ECONOMIC PRICE

ADJUSTMENT (OVERSEAS) (DLA ENERGY JAN 2012) paragraph (c) should read as follows:

“(c) ADJUSTMENTS. The prices payable under this contract shall be the award price increased or decreased by the amount, determined according to the following formula that the reference price shall have increased or decreased, to and including the date of delivery.

(1) The amount of increase or decrease in the award price shall be based on the same number of cents, or fraction thereof, that the reference price increases or decreases per like unit of measure.

(2) The reference price with which the award price for the listed item is to fluctuate (and which is more fully defined in the Table below) is—

[X] ( ii) The average of the prices published in _Platts Oilgram Price Report, Singapore Gasoil 50ppm Cargo, and Singapore Mogas 92 Unl Spore Cargo”

B. In Attachment I Schedule of Supplies, MODE for 0066 has been confirmed and should now read

TANK TRUCK (TT).

C. Below is a consolidated listing of all received questions that were asked up to 3 March 2016 and their respective answers. No further questions will be answered.

1. I wonder if Item no. 0023(23,664 GL) of previous RFI is deleted from RFP at this time.

Estimated quantity on page 8 of solicitation shows same quantity as previous RFI.

It is not reflecting addition of Item 0067(10,000GL) and deletion of Item 0023(23,664GL).

Please reference page 3(b) All quantities listed on the schedule (Attachment I) are estimates.

Page 8 also denotes estimated quantities. Any changes to these requirements will be identified by the customer and an amendment to the solicitation will be issued.

2. We know that the first offer can be the final offer and it is contracting officer's choice. How much is that possibility? I just wonder because this bidding comes out late.

Current contracts do not expire until 31 July 2016. We are providing sufficient time in accordance with our policies on the solicitation process, all potential vendors have been given at least 30 days (from date of issue to date of close) to respond. Again it is at the contracting officer’s discretion to award with or without discussion, either way awards will be made per DLA Energy policy standards.

3. Are you expecting the Factor 1, 2, and 3 on ‘Section M- EVALUATION FACTOR FOR

AWARD’ as the same factors that should be on the proposal we have to submit?

Reference the synopsis and page 3(a) of the solicitation for what should be submitted with the offer. Please read in its entirety FAR 52.212-2 -- Evaluation -- Commercial Items (Oct 2014) for evaluation criteria the Government will be using to evaluate offers. Also see page 3(d) information pertaining to pre-award surveys

4. Is there any license that is specifically required for this contract?

Reference synopsis and FAR 52.212-3 -- Offeror Representations and Certifications -- Commercial Items (Oct 2015) of the solicitation.

5. The acceptable factors for ‘Factor 1: Technical Capability’ says “an offer that meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation, including the Government's product specification requirements in Section B, delivery requirements in Section F.” Please specify “the minimum requirements” in Section B and Section F.

Section B- reference page 3(g), also pertains to the schedule of supplies found in Attachment I.

For specific minimum requirements see Attachment I. Section F specifies minimum delivery and performance requirements. Determine specifics as it pertains to method of delivery found in Attachment I.

6. In Korea Solicitation (final)(v2) Page.8 B-0002 B19.02 ADJUSTMENTS, previous contract solicitation have checked in 'The average of the prices'.

But in this contract, it is changed to the another option 'The low price'. I'd like to know why this is happened.

Clause B19.02 (C)(2) should be (ii) “The average of the prices…” We have listed the prior month’s average price from each posting as the base reference prices in the solicitation. This will be corrected in an amendment.

7. In previous contract, Hanjin did not summit the attachment III. So, I would like to know whether we summit this file. And if we summit it, let me know how to fill in it.

If you are planning to use a posting other than the postings listed under B19.02, please reference the synopsis: Offerors proposing to use company postings are required to complete the Posting History Worksheet (Attachment III) for each product being offered. See Attachment III for instructions.

8. Are you considering for multi award to the SOL #. SP0600-16-R-0201 or not ?

Any contracts awarded from this solicitation will be Requirement Type Contracts; therefore multiple awards per requirement/item will not be made. To be clear two or more contractors will not share the same awarded requirement/item. See synopsis.

9. Is it acceptable to participate in bidding on the partial items set forth or identified in SOL #.

SP0600-16-R-0201?

Partial items are not identified in the solicitation. Offers should be made on each requirement/item contractor is capable of supporting, to cover the performance period. See page 3 of the solicitation.

(Clarification for 1&2 above: No, there may be more than one awardee, but a requirement will not be split among two or more offerors. Offerors are allowed to submit on specific items. You do not have to offer on all 66 items.)

10. Under your solicitation process, 1 (one) supplier will be awarded per 1 (one) item number

(locations) ?

- In other word, 1(one) best bidder will be awarded per each locations (Item number). Could you let us know our understanding is correct ? Please reference Section M of the solicitation Evaluation Factors. You are allowed to offer on one or all line items listed in the schedule.

11. When we give you the proposal, we're wondering whether the supplier has to give you the price proposal for all of locations (Item number) ?

Or Are we able to give you select some locations (Item numbers) to give you our price proposal ?

; To avoid your misunderstanding, we'd like to check whether we can give you the price proposal for selected Item number(Item number) among all of Item number (locations) in ATTACHMENT 1. (May need clarification on the question) Offers should be for each line item vendor would like to offer on. For line items that may have several locations, offeror should submit only one offer per line item, not per location under that line item. Example: Schedule list 5 different building numbers and generators for item 0009, you should not submit an offer for 0009 generators only. Offer should be for the total requirement.

12. To determine the supplier for each locations, participants have just only 1 (one) chance for price proposal to be awarded ?

In other words, how many times the bidding will be proceeded to select supplier ?

; If we submit an offer for you by the due date (MAR 10,2016), that proposal is only (one) and final proposal to be awarded ? Please reference the synopsis “DLA Energy may award without discussion based on initial offers submitted, but reserves the right to conduct negotiations with Offerors submitting proposals under the subject solicitation.” This decision will be made at the discretion of the Contracting Officer.

13. If we'd like to send you the price proposal by the e-mail, do we also have to send the hard copies of proposal again to you ?

If we have to do that, hard copies has to be received to you by the due date (MAR 10,2016) too ** Actually, we read "L-0002 L2.11-4 E-MAIL PROPOSAL (DLA ENERGY OCT 2010) in your solicitation document. however, we'd like to recheck it.

If e-mail proposal without hard copies is enough for you, it might be convenient for us. Please reference “Additional Information” paragraph (i) on page 3 of the solicitation.

14. In the Block 12. DISCOUNT TERMS in the 1st page of Standard Form 1449, could you let us know what we have to fill in ?

Does it mean a payment terms ? This block is for any discount the Offeror will provide on its offer price(s). Please reference Additional Information (a) on page 3 of the solicitation, also reference FAR 52.252-1 Solicitation Provisions incorporated by reference and see FAR 52-212-1 Instructions to Offerors

15. We have additional question as follows.

Regarding the ATTACHMENT 1 (schedule of supplies) in your solicitation document, There's no information about ITEM number of 0023. We're just wondering whether Schedule of supplies for ITEM number # 0023 is missing or not.

We'd like to recheck it from you.

There is no item 0023. Please provide offers for item numbers only listed on the schedule.

16. Additionally, we would appreciate it if you kindly clarify our inquiries below.

Regarding our inquiry about "E-mail proposal" below, we checked “Additional Information” paragraph (i) on page 3 of the solicitation under your reply and advice in your e-mail.

Followings are contents of Additional Information” paragraph (i) on page 3 of the solicitation.

[Quote]

i. Pursuant to L-0002 L2.11-4 E-MAIL PROPOSALS (DLA ENERGY OCT 2010), offers submitted via e-mail must constitute an offeror's hard copy. It must contain all required representations and certifications as well as all required signatures. E-mail address in which to submit offers is DLAEnergyPEC@dla.mil.

[Unquote]

We'd like to ask you the meaning of "offers submitted via e-mail must constitute an offeror's hard copy" above.

Among meaning #1 and meaning #2 below, could you let us know which one is the correct meaning of this clause ?

Meaning #1 : It means if offerors give an proposal via e-mail, offerors also have to submit hard copies of it again to DLA contracting officer too ?

Or

Meaning #2 : It means if offerors give an proposal via e-mail, it is regarded as what offerors sent an offer as hard copies ?

All offers submitted by email should be submitted the same as if it were the hard copy and contain all necessary information and signatures.

17. If the meaning #1 is correct, hard copies offers also have to be submitted to DLA Contracting officer by the due date (MAR 10, 2016 12:00 PM EST) ?

If you submit a hard copy it should be submitted NLT the closing date March 10, 2016 12PM

EST.

18. I am interested in supplying fuel for this solicitation. My question is what is the name and location of a secure terminal/ pipeline that is recognized by DLA and US Government in Korea?

Solicitation SP0600-16-R-0201 is a PC&S solicitation in support of Ground Fuels. There is no pipeline; I believe this is a Bulk fuels support. As far as we are aware we do not have restrictions on "secure" terminals.

19. Under each Item no., has Delivery Address and Delivery Note description.

However, Delivery address is differ from Delivery Site under Delivery Note.

Which one to follow for actual delivery?

Delivery site is location of tank(s) at that Delivery address. Ex. Delivery address is for a base/station, delivery site is the location of the tank(s) at that base/station. On orders Delivery should be to that delivery site at that delivery address.

20. If we participate the tender with reducing the Automatic fill up level from 40% to 20%, will there be any demerit or disadvantages?

Is the offer still acceptable?

One factor in evaluation is that offer meets the minimum requirement. See FAR 52.212-2 -- Evaluation -- Commercial Items (Oct 2014) of the solicitation (Factor 1-Technical Capability).

Minimum requirement is for 40%, therefore offer should be for 40%.

What happen when the contract missed the Automatic fill up level of 40%? What kind of penalty is there for the contractor? Please specify.

This may constitute a failure to deliver or contractor is unable to meet the terms and conditions of the contract. See FAR 52.212-4 Contract Terms and Conditions – Commercial Items (May 2015) (paragraph (m)) in its entirety at http://farsite.hill.af.mil

21. Noticed the Delivery Mode Note, and some locations require TT w/pump.

FYI, having/using a pump system on the T/T is prohibited for MG7 in Korea due to its dangerousness.

If any type of accidents happens within any delivery location by using T/T with pump at the DLA’s (or customer’s) request, will DLA (or customer) protect the contractor?

http://farsite.hill.af.mil/

See FAR 52.237-2 Protection of Government Buildings, Equipment, and Vegetation (Apr 1984) of the solicitation and FAR 52.212-4 Contract Terms and Conditions – Commercial Items (May 2015) (paragraph (j)) in its entirety at http://farsite.hill.af.mil *MODE for all MG7 on schedule state Tank Truck or Truck, except items 0004, 0005 and 0066 which are showing MODE as Tank Truck w/Pump. This may be an error in requirement and we will look into it and make any necessary changes as an amendment to the solicitation.

**Additional information on MODE for MG7 deliveries using TTwP: Mode for items 0004 and 0005 will remain TTwP. Item 0004 has tanks with ventilation pipes that are grounded to prevent from ignite explosions. A follow on amendment will be issued if necessary. Mode for item 0066 will be amended to TT.
