Sheet1

forms is not included in the page limit for the cover letter. By signing and submitting the signed SF 30 form for Solicitation Amendment 0011, the offeror acknowledges the Solicitation and Amendments 0001 through 0011 (with the exception of Amendment 0007, which was administratively canceled), and affirms the entire proposal will remain valid through October 31, 2018. Offeror proposals that do not remain valid through October 31, 2018 shall not be considered for award." Per the above, Offeror's shall acknowledge amendment 0011.

I am requesting a 2 week extension of the due date so that I can interview another CPA with expertise in DCAA compliance, make introductions between that person and my clients, and afford that person adequate time to prepare the historical data.

Answer for Q# 65: Thank you for your inquiry. Files shall be named IAW solicitation paragraph L.14.7. The MMDDYY shall be the day the proposal is submitted.

However, in our revised proposal, submitted on May 19, we used the file names from the original proposal and appended –“FPR” in the end.

Please let us know if we should resubmit our revised proposal, originally submitted on May 19 with new file names ending with “060817” as the revised submission MMDDYY date rather than “05062015-FPR” before the final due date of June 15, 2017?

Part 1 of the Amendment indicates a revision to the base ordering period from “five (5) years from the date of award of a contract” to “the date of contract award to 14 May 2022.”

However, in Part 5 the Amendment indicates that Section L.14.9 is revised to “For cost proposal purposes only, the anticipated ordering period is ten (10) years with one five (5) year base ordering period and one optional five (5) year ordering period as follows:

Base Ordering Period: 29 July 2015 – 28 July 2020 (5 years)

Optional Ordering Period: 29 July 2020 – 28 July 2025 (5 years)”

Can the Government clarify the reason for two different base ordering periods (14 May 2022 versus 29 July 2015 – 28 July 2020)?

Since amendment 11 is the most recent, we will include that full version since it includes our completed section K.

Is that ok?

the number of emails submitted. Offerors shall not submit compressed or .zip files. If the offeror does not receive confirmation of receipt, it is the responsibility of the offeror to contact Ms. Thompson, 443-861-4876, or Ms. Keating, 443-861-4927, to confirm their proposal has been received."

23 I do not see anything in the solicitation about a PPQ, where does it mention these in the solicitation? Offeror's are not required to submit questionnaire's but may if they want to. Please note per the discussion letter "Offerors are not required to update proposals except to address ENs and to update past performance events requested pursuant to paragraph L.15.3.2 of the solicitation. If no new events are available pursuant to paragraph L.15.3.2, then offerors are required to affirmatively state in their revised proposals that there are no additional events that occurred after submission of the offeror’s initial proposal. Except as described above, offerors are not required to update or change other aspects of their proposals, but offerors may revise any aspect of their proposal at their own discretion.

Offerors are reminded that if one volume is revised, then the offeror is responsible to ensure consistency with its other volumes and make revisions to other volumes as is necessary. Proposal information must be clear and consistent across all volumes. Proposals with an omission or unclear or uncertain proposals may not be considered for award."
