Q2. I had a question for a component supplied for W519TC-23-R-0007. The 8463191 Spacer Forward Adapter is listed on page 24 of the solicitation and the drawing was included in the technical data package and is referenced in the critical item fabrication specification. There was no reference to this component in the palletization drawings, can you confirm that this component is not required? If this component is required to be provided as part of the loose parts can you confirm whether -003 or -001 is required.

A2. The USG has confirmed that DWG 8463191, Spacer Forward Adapter, is NOT required on the BLU-109 A(D-1)/B Bomb Body configuration. The RFP will be amended to remove this drawing from the End Item Component Listing in paragraph c of E0010 – Ammunition Data Cards (p.24). Please disregard this drawing as part of the TDP.

Q3. Is the PPQ completed by us or do we send to a contacting command or prime for their perspective on performance?

A3. Section L.4.2.3 of the solicitation (p.76) states the following:

The Offeror must complete PPQ Sections IIA and IIB for each contract reference and send copies of the PPQ to the respondent(s) Point of Contact (POC) as identified in IIA. The Offeror shall include these documents in Volume II, Section 1 of the proposal. If the Offeror fails to provide proof of submission of the PPQ in Volume I, Section 1 of the proposal, then the Offeror(s) proposal shall be deemed noncompliant. The PPQ respondent(s) shall send the completed questionnaire directly to the U.S. Government POC as shown in Section III of the PPQ by the closing date of the solicitation.

Therefore, the Offeror would complete IIA and IIB. Section IIA shall be completed by the Offeror, however, this information shall be for the “RESPONDENT IDENTIFICATION / POC”. The respondent is the person that will be completing the PPQ for their perspective on contract performance by your company. The respondent will complete sections IIC and IID. The respondents to the PPQ will then submit their responses directly to the U.S. Government as indicated in Section IV of the PPQ. However, the Offeror must also include a copy of the PPQ’s that were sent for completion with sections IIA and IIB completed as part of its proposal.
