CLARIFICATIONS
| No. | DOCUMENT | SECTION | PARAGRAPH | PAGE | QUESTION/COMMENT | RESPONSE |
| 1 | Can we review the Q&A and then submit any follow-up or additional questions ? | Yes, questions are allowable for any questions pertaining to the amendments. | ||||
| 2 | Can we respond to the RFP even if we have not originally submitted any questions ? | Yes. | ||||
| 3 | We have missed the April 7th deadline for submitting questions, so I was wondering if it is possible to obtain the questions and answers that were asked before the deadline. |
Also, when submitting a bid with a primary vendor and subcontractor, are there any additional guidelines to follow other than the note below?
“Certified Teaming Arrangements (CTAs): The non-primary vendor, or the subcontractor, of any CTA submitting a proposal may only submit responses and supporting documentation for required task questions; Questions 4-6. Only the primary vendor of CTAs may submit responses and support documentation for the optional task questions; Questions 7-19.”
| All Q&A responses can be found in the DRAID BOA amendment announcement on beta.SAM. | |||||||
| 4 | The amended version of the Questionnaire (attached) contains an extra column labeled “Data Related Cloud Based Service.” Can you please confirm that this column was an error and does not need additional information added to it? | No, the “Data Related Cloud Based Service” column is intentional and the additional information is required. | |||||
| 5 | Can you please confirm the submission date has been extended to 05 May 2021 in accordance with Attachment 0003 | Yes, as noted on the amended announcement, the submission date is now 05 May 2021. | |||||
| 6 | All of our contracts are subject to industry standard non-disclosure provisions. Our plan is to describe the work performed in detail but to describe the clients generally. Are these types of descriptions typically sufficient as supported documentation? | Unclassified descriptions of work are allowable. The technical evaluators will determine if the unclassified description of work is found technically acceptable. | |||||
| 7 | Attachment 0003 | 3.2 | Sections 1 and 4 | 3 and 4 | The Section 1 instructions state that the Cover Letter must provide "Acknowledgement of any Amendment to this solicitation, to include signed copies |
attached to the Cover Letter (Will not count against the two-page limit.)"
However, the Section 4 instructions state that we must provide "Signed and completed SF1449 (page 1, blocks 30a-30c) as well as any SF 1449s for amendments."
| Can the Government please clarify whether it wants signed SF30s within both the Section 1 and Section 4 volumes? | Please complete the signed SF30s for both Attachment 0001 and 0004, as noted per the instructions. | |||
| 8 | Do you have any guidelines regarding where subcontractors can be located? We were hoping to submit a bid partnering with a company located in India. I did not see anything in the documentation that would indicate this is not allowed, but due to the nature of the bid, I wanted to confirm before drafting the proposal. | All awardees must be U.S. based companies. | ||
| 9 | Could you please confirm the submission deadline for the W52P1J-21-R-0030 DRAID BOA ? | The submission deadline is 05 May 2021 at 12pm CST. |
