*** End of Narrative A0000 ***

The purpose of Amendment 0002 to Solicitation W52P1J-16-R-0134 is to complete the following:

1. Provide answers to the following questions that have been received by the U.S. Government:

Question 1 - H.1.7. (Page 62 of the Request for Proposal) states "...no protest under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart

33.1 is authorized in connection with the issuance or proposed issuance of a delivery order except for a protest on the grounds that the order increases the scope, period, or maximum value of the contract or exceeds $25 million." In the previous prop charge contract that number was not to exceed $10 million. What was the driving factor in increasing the dollar amount referenced above from $10 million to $25 million?

Answer 1 - The change is a result of the 2017 National Defense Authorization Act which was signed into law on December 23, 2016 and increased the threshold of protests against task/delivery orders from $10 million to $25 million. FAR 16.505(a)(10)(i)(B) has not yet been updated to reflect this change. The following links contain information about the change:

https://www.congress.gov/114/bills/s2943/BILLS-114s2943enr.pdf#page=286 http://www.procurementplaybook.com/2017/01/major-changes-to-gaos-bid-protest-jurisdiction-over-task-order-awards/

Question 2 - Reducing the Integrated Master Schedule (IMS) to fit on 8-1/2" x 11" or 8-1/2" x 14" paper requires scaling the font size to under 8 point (pt.). Will a font size smaller than 8 pt. for the IMS still fall within the requirement of the solicitation?

Answer 2 - It is acceptable for the offeror to use a larger sized paper to maintain the 8 pt. font size.

Question 3 - Is there a moisture content test to be performed on the trays referenced in Drawing 9298927 (60mm), Drawing 9298796

(81mm) and Drawing 12952055 (120mm)?

Answer 3 - Please refer to MIL-P-60312 from the Technical Data Package List (TDPL) for further guidance.

Question 4 - What is the cost to the contractor for the services of the Government Proving Ground and their involvement in the

Velocity Test, the Charge Establishment Test and the Uniformity Test? If the cost is unknown, can a contact name and number be provided so the cost can be requested?

Answer 4 - The offeror will need to work with Yuma Proving Ground to develop the cost for this effort (Point of Contact: Mr. Arturo

Anaya, Phone Number: 928-328-6134).

Question 5 - Notice of Revision (NOR) R17K2002 #3 refers to Drawing 12577583 Revision (Rev.) G. It is not listed on the TDPL and there is not a copy of the drawing available. Can a copy be provided?

Answer 5 - Drawing 12577583 Rev. G will be provided as Attachment 0022 and 0023 and can be accessed via the solicitation's Federal

Business Opportunities (FBO) website link.

Question 6 - L.3.3.1 on Page 100 of the solicitation states "Font smaller than 12 point is ONLY acceptable in graphics, sketches, charts, and the price matrix." Can tables be included in the group of exclusions to the 12 point font requirement?

Answer 6 - Yes, tables may be excluded. The font for tables should be no less than 8 point.

Question 7 - L.4.1.2. Option 2 on page 101 of the solicitation states VOL. 1 - Technical "shall not exceed 100 pages combined for the three sub-factors under the Technical proposal." Is this 100 pages for each Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) Group or 100 pages total for CLIN Groups A, B, & C?

Answer 7 - The 100 page limit applies to all CLIN groups (Groups A, B, & C) combined.

Question 8 - Due to the details necessary to meet the IMS requirement of this solicitation, can the IMS be excluded from the page count limit of 20 pages for Sub-factor 3: Management Plan?
