QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q1: If not eligible to bid on the Item 1 through 10 due to lack of the Federal Designation will our bid for Items 11 – 23 be considered?

A1: Reference SF 1449 Continuation Sheet (page 3 of 55) Note 3: only CLINs 0001 through 0010 are restricted under FAR Clause 52.208-8 Required Sources for Helium and Helium Usage Data (April 2014).

Q2: Is the intent of the government to award the package to a single source or the low bid for each Item?

A2: Reference DLA Energy Aerospace Provision M-0001 M2.14 Evaluation- Commercial Items paragraph

(e) Basis for Award. In addition, SF 1449 Continuation Sheet (Page 3 of 55) Note 4 suggests more than one contract MAY be awarded.

Q3: We are trying to align each Item 1 – 20 with the actual delivery address – can you direct us to which document has this information? Example – ITEM 11, Volume 1,849.000 – Where is this requirement located (address)?

A3: The attachment titled “Estimated Requirement by Grade, Customer Location, Year” is replaced by the attachment titled “Estimated Requirement by Customer Location”. The associated CLINs are identified at the beginning of each column underneath the heading (i.e. BLM Grade A, BLM Grade N, etc).
