*** End of Narrative A0000 ***

The purpose of Amendment 0003 is to:

1. Extend the due date of past performance questionnaires/list of POCs to within sixty (60) calendar days of the release of the RFP.

Section L.4.3.2(5) has been amended to reflect this extension.

2. Correct the reference from "D.4.3" in L.4.4.2 to "M.3.4.4."

3. Revise SOW sections 3.3.2.1.3.d. and 3.3.2.1.3.f.

4. Provide the following questions and answers:

Question 1: Ref Solicitation L.4.4.2 and L.4.4.8 - Please confirm that the Small Business Participation Factor Volume and SB

Subcontracting Plan (if required) must utilize Attachment 0001, Section B Attachment rather than Attachment 0003 to calculate the total contract price. If so, this results in a SB Subcontracting plan which includes the entire IDIQ CLIN ceiling unit prices at maximum quantity and with no transportation costs, which is not necessarily reflective of any accurate forecast and must be reported against in the future as part of SB Subcontracting Plan requirements.

Answer 1: Attachment 0001 will be used to calculate the total contract price. Offerors are reminded that, as stated in L.4.4.8, "Small

Business Subcontracting Plan percentages will be different in that the percentage calculation denominator is total subcontracting amount as opposed to this Small Business Participation Factor where the percentage calculation denominator is the Offeror's proposed Contract

Target Price."

Question 2: Do the General Specifications apply to inert items (CLINs 360-387)? If so, which sections of the Gen Specs apply?

(Attachments 0004-0008)

Answer 2: See the revised SOW sections noted above.
