Amendment 0002

SP330025Q0048

Questions Source Document Subsection Question Answers

0001 N/A N/A

The Government does not provide a proposal response framework and evaluation criteria within the Solicitation files. Typically there is a file with proposal preparation instructions combined with Terms and Conditions and how the Government will evaluate each Offer.

Please provide this document.

Please see FAR 52.212-1 Insturctions to Offerors which states how to submit quotes starting on page 16 of CSS

SP330025Q0048.

0002 PWS N/A

The PWS references various cybersecurity requirements, including DISA STIGs, RMF, and NIST compliance, but does not explicitly define what constitutes an acceptable deviation or exception process beyond requiring written approval. Please define an acceptable deviation or exception process.

STIGs will be applied to the system. Anything the contractor cannot apply or remediate, a Plan of Action and Milestone (POAM) must be submitted to provide an understanding of the issue, and it must be approved by DLA J61.

0003 PWS Section 3.1.1

States that emergency repairs may require a response within four (4) hours but does not specify if this is only for critical system failures or all emergency cases. Please describe what constitutes an emergency repair? Any type of outage where the system being used is not functioning or unable to access the network.

0004 PWS Section 3.1.5

Task 3.1.5 requires an initial configuration audit within 10 business days and monthly updates, but it does not specify whether a full audit is expected each month or just incremental changes. Please clarify.

A full audit is not expected every month, just the initial audit is full and complete. The contractor must provide an audit of items that have changed since the full audit.

0005 PWS Section 3.3.1

Section 3.3.1 mandates IPv4 and IPv6 compatibility for network components but does not specify how compatibility testing will be verified or if a compliance report is required. Please address how this specific testing will be verified, by whom, and if a specific compliance report is required.

You will know if it is compliant by whether or not it connects to the network. If you cannot apply an IPv4 or IPv6 address, or have it pull one of them from the DHCP server, then it is not compatible.

0006 PWS Section 3.3.2

The PWS states that DLA provides IT infrastructure (servers, switches, workstations), but also mentions contractor-supplied IT infrastructure in certain cases. Can the Government clarify under what conditions the contractor must provide IT infrastructure?

In some cases, the contractor chooses to purchase the hardware and give it to J6 for imaging. There are times where the contractor will be allowed to install an image themselves, which they will be required to maintain the OS. Every situation is different, and the contractor will discuss their plans with J6 at the begining of the contract.

0007 PWS Section 15.0

This Section outliens data security responsibilities but lacks a specific process for handling security breaches involving Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). Does the Government have a process for this and can this be shared with the Offerors? We do not have a process for how a data breach will be handled. If a breach occurs, it will be handled in accordance with procedures given to them for that specific type of breach. Every situation is different.

0008 PWS Section 3.2.1

While Section 3.2.1 requires an Incident Response Plan (IRP) within 10 business days, it does not state how quickly incidents must be reported once detected. Please clarify specific incident response reporting timeframes.

The contractor should submit, in their IRP, the typical incidents they normally encounter, how they handle them, their response time, and how they will be submitted into their internal ticket system. The PWS does state the timeframe for responding to emergency situation. But your IRP should show how you will handle incidents and must be approved by J6. If J6 does not agree with the timeframe you submit, we will ask them to adjust their

IRP.

0009 PWS Section 4.0

Please provide the Dongle ID for the Lenel Software. This is required in order to accurately price the Lenel annual license renewal. Can the Government also identify which CLIN the Lenel license renewal should be bid under? Dongle ID: 181555

0010 PWS Section 2.0

The scope outlines multiple ESS components, including Lenel ACS, Bosch CCTV, and Morse Key Watchman EKC. Can the Government identify the current versions of these applications that are running?

Lenel-S2 Onguard Product version: 8.2.524.126, CCTV Bosch BVMS Operator Client Version 9.0 Build 9.0.0.827, Morse Key Watchman no longer has an operational computer, so no way to provide this information.

0011 PWS Section 3.1.4

The Enterprise Configuration Management (ECM) process requires approvals for all hardware/software changes. Is there a standard timeframe between J6 TPOC/COR approval and the contractor performing the contract hardware/software change?

There is no standard timeframe, but Enterprise Change Requests (ECR) can take 1-2 months to process and receive approval.

0012 PWS Section 3.4 Cybersecurity requirements include multiple accreditation artifacts. Does the Government have an established process for reviewing and approving these artifacts?

We do have an established process for getting these cybersecurity documents approved. It is a lengthy process that will involve our Information Systems Security Manager (ISSM).

0013 PWS Section 10.1

Personnel security requirements state that a security clearance "may be required." Can the Government confirm what the clearance requirements are for the System Administrator as a Key Personnel??

I do not believe it's required for this contract. You should pay close attention to the requirements spelled out in DoDM 8140.03 for personnel certifications.

0014 PWS Section 11.0

Per section 11.0 only one Key Personnel (System Administrator) is identified. Does the Government expect a single Systems Administrator to be responsible for all Preventive Maintenance (PM), corrective maintenance (CM), and cybersecurity tasks?

No, we don't expect this and have not dictated the number of personnel you must have. You can use one person for all three, if they meet the certification/education/experience requirements.

0015 PWS Section 11.1 Can the Government confirm that the required DoD 8570.01-M/DoDM 8140.03 certification will be at the IAT Level II? Yes, IAT Level II.

0016 PWS Section 11.2 Can the Government identify the required frequency for Preventative Maintenance (PM);

Monthly, Quarterly, Semi-Annual?

We cannot confirm since each componnent of the ESS has varying requirements; some require month, quarterly, or semi-annual. That would be determined by the manufacturers documentation.

0017 Equipment List N/A Attachment 3: Equipment List, is for DLA Puget Sound. Can the Government attach the correct equipment list for DLA Red River? Please see updated attachment
