Question Number

RFP / PWS / Attachment / CDRL Reference and Text

Page #, Paragraph

Question/Comment Answer

1 1.6.1 Phase‐In /Phase‐Out Period p2 PWS As there is no is no requirement for a Phase‐In or Phase‐Out period, can the Gov't advise when the base contract award will be made in relation to Start Date of 1 October 2019 ‐ i.e. would there be a period to support mobilization

When award is made, a task order for a post‐award conference will also be awarded. This is the only guaranteed performance under this Indefinite Delviery/Indefinite Quantity contract. There is no requirement for a phase in period under this contract.

2 3.2 Facilities p10 PWS In our experience, base access is a delaying factor if driver details are not held on a database for multiple events/missions. Where Installation Access is required, will this be for each and every mission, or will a driver and asset be granted access if returning to the same installation within a given period?

The information for each driver will need to be updated for each mission. If the same driver is completing multiple trips on the same mission, then driver information will not need to be updated. Each mission is an individual task order and will need driver and truck information for each mission.

3 4.3 Materials and 5.6 Cancellation p11;p17

PWS

Where Missions are cancelled after Permits and other Clearance expenses have been incurred by the contractor, what type of reimbursement can be expected from the Gov't

The Government will pay 100% of the permit & clearances on a cost reimbursable basis but only with the invoice from the Road Administration office of the country(ies) from each individual task order. The contractor must submit the invoice for the reimbursement and only the cost of the permit &

Clearance shall be covered.

4 5.2.2 p13 PWS Where the Contractor shall furnish details of Driver, Asset ‐ will this be required on excel sheet, or will actual copies of documents be required

The Government requires the needed information on an Excel spread sheet. A copy of each drivers' passport are the only documents that need to be provided with the excel spread sheet when submitting the packet.

5 5.2.2.1 p13 PWS If Driver and Asset Details are provided 20 days ahead of time for normal missions ‐ would it be possible for the contractor to provide additional back‐up assets as a contingency if one or more dropped out in the 20 day lead ‐time

If there multiple drivers for the mission, the same information shall still be required for all drivers and assets. It is possible to plan for contingencies on a non‐reimbursable basis.

6 5.2.8.1 p15 PWS RDD is mentioned through the PWS, but what is the Governments process to advise the contractor of RLD's, and expectation to meet the RLD window

If you are referring to the loading date, the Government will always provide the movement window for the mission including the loading date and the required delivery date.

7 52.212‐2 p16 RFP The PWS states “this 3PL contract is for the transportation of equipment, cargo, and passengers within the European Command (EUCOM) Area of Operations. The EUCOM Area of Operations includes all European nations, with the exceptions of: Iceland, Malta, Holy See, Monaco, San Marino, Malta, Kazakhstan, Republic of Ireland, Belarus, and Russia”.

Question – the PWS shows service throughout EUCOM but the Cargo Price List only shows Vlissingen Port, Netherlands to Poland. Is this only for pricing comparison? What about pricing for all other city pairs?

There was no Attachment 1 on the website FBO.

Please refer to the solicitation, page 19, FAR Clause 52.212‐1 Addendum, which states: "The Government will evaluate the priced effort of the equipment movement from the Netherlands to Drawsko Pomorskie, Poland that is given in the solicitation Attachment 01. Cap rates for ceiling prices for the future movement of the set amount of equipment between Vlissingen Port, Netherlands, and Drawsko Pomorskie, Poland, in Attachment 01 will be set for awardees, based on proposed rates." While these rates are set as a ceiling for this route only, all other routes will be competed at the task order level, amongst contract holders.

Please refer to 52.216‐22 on questions regarding the contract type which will be awarded, an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract.
